Privacy Policy

This page explains how the HurstyFX public website should handle privacy during the private-testing phase and how it can be updated later if analytics, contact forms, memberships or subscriptions are added.

1. Current privacy position

HurstyFX is currently a public education and market-awareness website with a private dashboard-testing project. The public website is designed to provide educational pages, risk information, market-awareness content and dashboard status information.

At this stage, the site should collect as little personal information as possible. Personal email addresses should not be displayed publicly, and visitors should not be asked to submit trading account details, financial information or personal trading requests.

2. Information this website may collect

During the simple static website phase, HurstyFX may collect very limited information automatically through standard website hosting logs. These logs may include technical information such as browser type, device type, approximate region, pages visited, time of visit and basic security information.

If a contact form, analytics tool, newsletter, subscription area or payment system is added later, this privacy policy should be updated before those features go live.

• Basic technical hosting logs.
• Website performance or security information.
• Contact form information if a form is added later.
• Newsletter or subscription information if those features are added later.
• Payment information only if a proper payment provider is added later.

3. Information HurstyFX should not request

HurstyFX should not ask public visitors to send sensitive financial or trading information through the website. The site is educational and should not be used as a personal advice or account-management service.

• Do not request broker login details.
• Do not request trading account passwords.
• Do not request bank details through ordinary contact messages.
• Do not request personal trade instructions.
• Do not request sensitive personal financial records for advice.

4. How information may be used

If HurstyFX processes limited visitor information, it should only be used for clear and reasonable purposes connected with running the website and improving the public education project.

• To operate and secure the website.
• To understand website performance.
• To respond to appropriate general enquiries if contact opens later.
• To improve educational content and navigation.
• To manage future public testing or subscription interest if added later.

5. Contact forms

There is currently no public contact form required for the private-testing phase. If a contact form is added later, the form should clearly explain what information is collected, why it is collected and how the visitor can request deletion or correction.

Contact forms should not be used for personalised financial advice, trade recommendations or requests for guaranteed trading results.

6. Cookies and analytics

The simple static HurstyFX site should avoid unnecessary tracking cookies during the private-testing phase. If analytics, advertising pixels, tracking scripts or similar technologies are added later, the website should clearly explain what they do and use an appropriate cookie notice or consent tool where required.

• Strictly necessary cookies may be used to make a website work.
• Analytics cookies may require clear explanation and consent depending on setup.
• Advertising or tracking cookies should not be added without proper controls.
• Visitors should be told what cookies are used and why.

7. Future subscriptions or accounts

If HurstyFX later adds subscriptions, memberships, login accounts or paid dashboard access, this privacy policy should be updated before launch. It should explain what account data is collected, how payments are handled, how long records are kept and which third-party services are used.

• Account name or username.
• Email address or login details.
• Subscription status.
• Payment provider records.
• Support messages.
• Access logs for security.

Payment details should be handled by a reputable payment provider rather than stored directly by HurstyFX.

8. Sharing information

HurstyFX should not sell personal information. If data is processed later, it may be shared only with necessary service providers that help operate the website, such as hosting, security, analytics, email, payment or support services.

Any future third-party service should be reviewed before use, and visitors should be told what categories of service providers are involved.

9. Data retention

Personal information should not be kept longer than necessary. If contact forms, subscriptions or analytics are added later, HurstyFX should define sensible retention periods for each type of information.

• General enquiry messages should be kept only as long as needed to respond and manage the enquiry.
• Subscription records may need to be kept for account, billing or legal reasons.
• Security logs may be kept for a limited period to protect the site.
• Analytics data should be minimised where possible.

10. Data security

HurstyFX should take reasonable steps to protect any information collected. Security measures may include secure hosting, HTTPS, limited access, strong passwords, private dashboard protection and careful selection of third-party services.

No website can guarantee perfect security, so the project should avoid collecting unnecessary personal data in the first place.

11. Visitor rights

Depending on where a visitor is located and what data is collected, visitors may have rights over their personal information. These can include the right to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to certain uses of personal data.

If HurstyFX adds contact forms, subscriptions or accounts later, the website should provide a clear way for visitors to make privacy requests without exposing a personal email address publicly.

12. Children

HurstyFX is not designed for children. The website should not knowingly collect personal information from children. Trading education, leveraged products and financial-market content are intended for adults.

13. Financial information and trading risk

HurstyFX does not need personal trading account information to provide public education content. Visitors should not send broker logins, bank details, account screenshots containing sensitive data, personal financial records or requests for personalised trade advice.

The site remains education, analytics, commentary and market awareness only.

14. External links

HurstyFX may link to external websites such as educational resources, regulator pages, market information providers or third-party tools. HurstyFX is not responsible for the privacy practices of external websites. Visitors should read the privacy policies of any external sites they use.

15. Updates to this policy

This privacy policy should be reviewed whenever the site changes. It should be updated before adding analytics, cookies, contact forms, memberships, payments, newsletter tools or public dashboard access.

The policy should remain clear, simple and easy for visitors to understand.

16. Future contact method

Public contact details are not currently displayed while HurstyFX remains in private testing. When public testing opens, this page can be updated with a branded contact method or protected form for privacy requests and general enquiries.

• Use a branded email rather than a personal email.
• Consider a protected contact form.
• Do not expose personal email addresses to scraping.
• Do not accept personalised financial advice requests.

Key takeaway

HurstyFX should keep privacy simple during private testing: minimal data collection, no public personal email, no unnecessary tracking and clear updates before any future contact forms, analytics, subscriptions or accounts.
