This policy explains what information The Core Group ("we", "us") collects when you visit www.the-core-group.com, use the member portal at my.the-core-group.com, join our trading room, or use our software, and how we use and protect it.

- Subscription and billing information. Your plan, billing status and payment history. Payments are processed by Stripe or PayPal. We do not receive or store your full card number.

YouTube API Services
We use YouTube API Services to manage The Core Group's own YouTube channel, for example to publish and schedule our videos and live streams and to read our channel's analytics. We do not use YouTube API Services to access, collect or store information about viewers or about anyone else's YouTube account.
By watching our content on YouTube you are also subject to the YouTube Terms of Service. Google's handling of data is described in the Google Privacy Policy. You can revoke any access you have granted to an application through YouTube API Services at Google security settings.

- Stripe and PayPal, for payment processing.
- Discord and Zoom, for the trading room and member community.
- Google, for website analytics and YouTube.
- Email and hosting providers that deliver our messages and run our systems.
We may also disclose information if required by law, or to protect the rights, property or safety of The Core Group, our members or others.
Cookies
This website uses cookies set by Google Analytics. The member portal uses cookies to keep you signed in. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings; parts of the portal may not work without them. You can opt out of Google Analytics with the Google Analytics opt-out add-on.
Data retention
We keep account and subscription information while your account is active and afterwards for as long as needed to meet legal, tax and accounting obligations. You can ask us to delete your account at any time.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information, including encrypted connections. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
