Vault
Local. Private. Yours.
Every trade encrypted with AES-256, bound to your machine, never seen by us.
Inside Vault
We didn't skip writing a backdoor. We made one impossible.
There is no sync feature. No backup uploader. No analytics beacon. Your data structurally cannot leave your machine.
AES-256 at rest
Every trade, journal note, screenshot, and broker import is encrypted with AES-256 in your local SQLite database. Decrypted only by your hardware-bound key.
One session at a time
Activation binds to a hash derived from your machine's hardware identifiers. We never receive raw hardware IDs. You can activate on more than one machine and use them one at a time; signing in while another session is live is refused until that one is signed out. Moving beyond your limit is a transfer, and we permit occasional moves.
100% local SQLite
Your trades live in a single SQLite file on your disk. Back it up to your own external drive, your own NAS, your own anything. We hold no copy.
Your edge stays yours because it's structurally unable to leave.
What we never collect
Your trades, P&L, broker statements, journal entries, strategies, patterns, or notes. No telemetry. No crash auto-reports. No anonymized aggregates “for product improvement.” Ever.
Watch it work
See where your data lives.
There is no separate Vault recording. The data folder, the backup and cloud-sync folders, and the encrypted market-data key are all set in Settings, so that is the walkthrough where you see this module in use.
Settings
3:30Every settings screen: brokers, fees, folders, backups and cloud sync, plus which changes take effect instantly and which need a restart.
Vault is one module inside Trade Cortex.
