What we collect

• Your account: your name, your email and your password, which is stored in a form that cannot be read back.
• Sign-in information: the devices and browsers you sign in from and roughly where, so you can see and end your sessions and be told about a sign-in from somewhere new.
• Your investing information: the activity you import from your brokerage (account numbers are removed and the file itself is not kept), what is worked out from it (holdings, transactions, gains, dividends), the trades and TFSA room you enter yourself, and your plan and settings.

We do not collect payment details, your date of birth or your brokerage password.

How we use it

Only to run your account: to sign you in and keep your account secure, to show you your dashboard, and to send emails about your account. To keep its research up to date, Northbook also counts which stocks and coins are held across all accounts, without knowing who holds them or how much.

There are no ads and no tracking. The only cookies are the ones that keep you signed in. Your information is never sold, and it is not shared except with the service providers that run the site, which may only use it to provide their service to us.

Where it is kept

Northbook uses trusted service providers to host the site and send email, and your information is stored and processed in the United States. Information held outside Canada may be accessed by authorities there under local law.

How long we keep it

For as long as you have an account. When you delete your account, everything stored for it is deleted.

Your choices

From your account page you can see and download everything stored for your account, correct your name and email, and delete the account. Deleting cannot be undone.

Not investment advice

The site shows research and data to help you decide for yourself. It does not tell you what to buy or sell, and it is not tax advice.
