Tilt Blocker Privacy Policy

Summary

Tilt Blocker is designed as a local-first Chrome extension for prop futures traders. The V0.1 build stores settings in Chrome local storage, checks billing access through Tilt Blocker billing endpoints, can interrupt browser clicks with user-configured overlays or countdowns, and does not sell personal data, transmit broker credentials, place trades, cancel broker orders, or modify positions.

Information Stored Locally

The extension stores user preferences such as enabled state, tilt sensitivity, alert personality, sound settings, voice settings, supported platform preference, cooldown duration, checkout email, signed access token, cached billing status, session goals, local warning receipts, trade diary notes, feature toggles, media capture metadata, and guardrail settings using Chrome local storage.

Billing Information

Paid access is processed by Stripe. The pricing page sends visitors to Stripe Checkout, where Stripe collects the receipt email and payment details. After Checkout, the user can paste the Stripe success-page session ID into the extension to claim a signed expiring access token. The extension can send that token to Tilt Blocker billing endpoints to open Stripe Customer Portal sessions and confirm whether an active lifetime purchase exists. Payment card details are handled by Stripe, not stored by the extension.

Stripe Checkout may ask for promotional email consent where supported so Tilt Blocker can follow local marketing rules before sending product or recovery emails.

Trading Activity

The current build scores session behavior inside the browser. It can detect likely order-entry clicks on supported URLs and uses that local session state to decide whether to show a warning, countdown overlay, lockout, trade cap, or diary prompt. Trade diary entries, repeated-mistake reminders, and optional media captures stay local in the browser in this build. It does not connect directly to brokerage APIs or transmit trading activity to an external server.

Website Analytics

The marketing website uses Google Analytics to understand page views and non-sensitive product interactions such as checkout clicks, form views, form starts, form submission outcomes, guide filtering, and calculator use. Analytics events are configured to avoid sending early-access email addresses, notes, broker credentials, trade diary content, or payment card details.

Permissions

The extension requests Chrome permissions for storage, sidePanel, tabs, activeTab, downloads, and unlimitedStorage so it can save settings locally, open the right-side settings panel, inspect the active supported tab, and optionally save watermarked trade media to the local machine. It also requests access to https://www.tiltblocker.com/* so the popup and supported pages can check license status and open billing flows. Content scripts are limited to topstepx.com, tradovate.com, and www.tradingview.com/chart trading hosts.

Future Changes

If account sync, extension telemetry, or remote trade reporting are added later, this policy should be updated before those features ship. Any future networked feature should be clearly separated from trade execution and should explain what data is transmitted and why.
