Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 29, 2026

Overview

Swift Penguin (https://www.swiftpenguin.com) provides free educational stock trading tools and guides. We aim to collect as little personal information as practical. This policy explains what may be processed when you visit the site.

Information we do not require

You do not need an account to use our calculators and guides. We do not ask you to create a login or provide a password to use core tools.

Information stored on your device

Some tools (for example the portfolio tracker, stock market simulator, and certain calculators) save settings or holdings in your browser's local storage so your work persists between visits. That data stays on your device unless you clear site data or export/share it yourself. We do not receive a copy of local portfolio holdings through that mechanism.

Analytics and advertising

We may use analytics (such as Google Analytics) to understand aggregate traffic — pages viewed, approximate location, device type, and similar metrics. We may also display ads via Google AdSense or similar partners. Those partners may use cookies or similar technologies to serve and measure ads according to their own policies. You can control cookies through your browser settings and, where offered, Google's ad settings.

Contact emails

If you email us, we receive whatever you include in that message (your address and content) so we can reply. We do not sell email addresses.

Affiliate / referral links

Some broker links are affiliate or referral links. If you sign up through them, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Those partners process your application data under their own privacy policies — not ours.

Third-party APIs

Live quotes and market data may be requested through third-party data providers when you use tools that need them. Those requests typically include the ticker symbol you looked up, not your name or account details.

Children

This site is not directed at children under 13 (or the applicable age in your region). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do.
