4. Hosting and data processors
We use a limited set of vetted providers. Each is a data processor under Art. 28 GDPR. Data Processing Agreements (DPAs) and EU Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) are in place.
Vercel Inc. (Covina, CA, USA), application hosting. Serverless functions are locked to Frankfurt (fra1), so personal data is processed in the EU. Static assets via global CDN contain no personal data. DPA: vercel.com/legal/dpa.
Supabase Inc. (Singapore), database and authentication. Our instance runs in Frankfurt, Germany (eu-central-1). DPA: supabase.com/legal/dpa.
Anthropic, PBC (San Francisco, CA, USA), AI analysis (Buffett Brain). By contract, queries are not used to train their models.

We never sell your personal data and never use it for cross-context behavioural advertising.
5. International data transfers
Most personal data stays in the EU because our database and serverless functions run in Frankfurt, Germany.
A small subset is transferred to US-based processors (Anthropic, OpenAI, Resend, ImprovMX, Microsoft Clarity, Stripe). For these we rely on:
- European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), signed via each provider's DPA
- The EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF) for certified providers
- Data minimisation - we only send what's strictly needed (e.g. ticker + financial metrics for AI, not your name)
6. Cookies (TTDSG § 25)
We use only strictly necessary cookies. Under TTDSG § 25 Abs. 2 Nr. 2 and ePrivacy Directive Art. 5(3), no consent is required for these, so we don't show a cookie banner.
Specifically:
sb-access-token,sb-refresh-token- Supabase authentication, set on login, expire on logouttheme- light/dark preference (local-only, never sent to a server)locale- language preference (local-only)- We do not use advertising, retargeting, cross-site tracking, fingerprinting, or third-party analytics cookies.
