Always verify critical figures against your broker’s official statements.
Data retention and deletion
We retain your data for as long as your account is active. You may delete individual imports from within the app. To request full account deletion, email us at hello@thetajournal.app. Deletion requests are processed within 30 days. Refer to our Privacy Policy for full details.

The metrics, charts, and dashboards displayed by the Service are based solely on historical data you have imported. Past performance of your trades is not indicative of future results. Options trading involves significant risk of loss, including the possible loss of the entire amount invested.
We are not a registered investment adviser, broker-dealer, or financial planner. No content on the Service should be construed as a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any security or pursue any investment strategy. Consult a qualified financial professional before making trading decisions.
