Legal

The legal documents for Stedwatch, a product of tomventures GmbH. Stedwatch is read-only. It watches and reports, it never trades, and it keeps your monitoring data on your own machine. A paid Pro key activates online per machine and is re-checked on a repeating schedule (every 15 minutes until accepted, then every 12 hours), verifying locally in between; the free tier needs no activation. A paid licence covers the number of machines the plan you bought states, and that number is enforced when a machine activates.

One rule runs through all of it: Stedwatch is read-only. It watches and reports; it never starts, stops, or modifies a terminal, and it never places, changes, or closes a trade. There is no command or configuration-write endpoint against the monitored system or your trading. On the desktop's own local API the only writes are two narrow, state-only requests: one registers a device for push notifications, the other saves the owner's own notification preferences and manual mute. Neither is a terminal, broker, or trading command. Separately, a paid or trial licence key is checked against our licensing server repeatedly for as long as the Software runs - every 15 minutes until the key is accepted, then every 12 hours. That check sends your licence key, a one-way machine hash (pseudonymous, not anonymous: it cannot be reversed back to your machine, but it is stored beside your account) and the version of Stedwatch running on that machine, and never your monitoring or trading data. Secrets are never settable over the wire. It is not financial advice, comes with no warranty, and your data stays on your machine.
