Who operates Tally
Tally, available at tallyjournal.tech, is operated by Sayilnen Gerlong, an individual based in Nigeria, under the name Tradewithsvnday. Sayilnen is responsible for how Tally uses your personal information. For support or privacy requests, email support@tallyjournal.tech.
Information we collect
- Your account: email address, a hashed password, verification and recovery records, account creation time, plan or trial status, preferences, and the time and versions of policies you accept. If you use Google, we receive your verified email address and Google account identifier. We do not request access to your Gmail messages or Google Drive.
- Your journal: trading account nicknames, currency, timezone, goals, rules, trades, balances, positions, notes, tags, check-ins and reflections you enter or sync.
- MT5 connection information: when you choose to connect, your account number, broker server and investor password are sent to MetaApi to provide the connection. Tally does not save your investor password in its own database. MetaApi processes the credentials and connected trading data. Tally stores the provider connection identifiers and sync status.
- Technical and support information: session and security information, request and error logs handled by our infrastructure, and messages you send to support, including feedback form answers and an optional reply email. Do not email passwords, verification codes or API keys.
Why we use it
We use information to create and secure your account, provide your journal, sync MT5 when requested, calculate descriptive statistics, provide support, use feedback to improve Tally and communicate account changes. These activities are necessary to provide the service you request. We also use limited technical information for our legitimate interests in preventing abuse, troubleshooting and protecting the service, considering your rights. We may process information to meet applicable legal obligations. Where we rely on consent for an optional activity, you may withdraw that consent; this does not affect earlier lawful processing. Acknowledging this policy is not consent to unrelated marketing.
Tally's patterns and flags describe recorded activity. They do not make lending, employment or other decisions with legal or similarly significant effects about you.
Providers and sharing
Service providers process information needed for their role: Heroku/Salesforce hosts the application and database; MetaApi connects MT5 accounts; Resend sends account emails and feedback messages to our support inbox; Cloudflare provides domain infrastructure and routes support email; and Gmail receives support messages. Google also handles sign-in if you choose it. Fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, and the calendar page loads an external Tradays widget (or TradingView where configured); those requests disclose technical information such as your IP address and browser details to the provider.
We do not sell your personal information. We may disclose information when required by law, to protect rights or investigate abuse, or with your direction. Following an external community or product link takes you to a separate service governed by its own terms and privacy policy.
International processing
Our providers may process information outside Nigeria. Applicable safeguards are required for international transfers under Nigerian data protection law. Contact us for information about the providers and safeguards relevant to your data.
Cookies and browser storage
Tally uses a session cookie for login and form security, and local browser storage to remember your theme. Tally does not currently run advertising trackers or a separate audience analytics service. Embedded providers may use their own storage under their policies. Blocking essential cookies can prevent signup or login from working.
Retention and deletion
We keep your account and journal while you use the service. Archiving a trading account or ending a Pro trial does not delete journal history. You can export trades and delete your Tally account in Settings after unlinking MT5 and resolving pending connections. If you cannot use those controls, contact support. Google users may need to set a password through account recovery before using password-confirmed settings.
Deletion removes account and journal records from the active application database. Security logs, support correspondence, trial administration records and provider backups may remain for their operational, security or legal purposes and are not necessarily erased immediately. We retain such information only as needed for those purposes; contact us to request deletion or details of remaining records.
Your choices and rights
Subject to applicable law, you can request access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability or object to processing, and withdraw consent where processing relies on it. Email support with your request; we may need to verify your identity without requesting your password. You may also complain to the Nigeria Data Protection Commission. We will handle requests within applicable legal time limits.
Security and age
We use measures including encrypted connections, password hashing, access controls and limited verification-code lifetimes. No service can guarantee absolute security. Tally is intended for people aged 18 or older. Contact us if you believe a child has provided personal information.
