The short version
There is no account system, no login, and no analytics or advertising tracker anywhere on this site — no Google Analytics, no Plausible, no Meta pixel, nothing. We do not build a profile of you and there is nothing to sell.
What follows is the honest detail, including the parts that are less tidy than the marketing line.
Vice Hub
What stays on your machine
Your layouts, watchlists, tracked wallet addresses, notes, alerts and
preferences are written to localStorage in your browser.
They are never uploaded, and we have no copy of them. Clearing your
browser storage deletes them permanently — there is no backup on our
side to restore from. Use Export layout if you want one.
What necessarily leaves your machine
A live market dashboard cannot work without fetching live market data. When Hub is open, your browser makes requests directly to:
- Hyperliquid — prices, open interest, funding, wallet books and the Scanner leaderboard
- TradingView — every embedded chart, heatmap, screener, calendar and ticker tape is an iframe served by TradingView
- vicesuite.com — proxy endpoints that fetch derivatives and options data (Coinalyze, Deribit, OKX) and news headlines on your behalf
Those services see your IP address and the standard headers any web request carries. That is inherent to loading data from them and is not something we can hide on your behalf. TradingView embeds are governed by TradingView's own privacy policy and set their own storage inside their iframes; we do not control or read that.
Plain English: your configuration never leaves your browser. Your requests for data obviously do, because that is what the data is.
Server logs
The site is hosted on Vercel. Vercel keeps standard operational request logs (IP, path, timestamp, user agent) for a short retention window, as any web host does. We do not query them to analyse individual users.
Vice Tickers
The ticker bots are the most private thing we run, and the reason is architectural rather than a promise: they hold no database and write no files.
- They connect with the
Guildsgateway intent only. They have no Message Content intent and no Members intent, so they cannot read your messages — not the ones they ignore, not any of them. - They store nothing. No server list persisted to disk, no user records, no usage log.
- They never send a message, never DM anyone, and never read your member list.
The only writes a ticker makes to your server are the two it needs to display a price: its own nickname, and the two colour roles it wears. See why it asks for Manage Roles for the full explanation of that permission.
Removing the bot from your server ends the relationship completely — there is nothing left for us to delete.
Vice Charts
This is the one tool that has to read text, and we would rather state that plainly than bury it.
Reading messages
Vice Charts responds to a text prefix — vc btc 15m — so it
runs with Discord's Message Content intent and receives the content of
messages in channels it can see. The first thing it does with every
message is test whether the text starts with the command prefix. If it
does not, the message is discarded immediately: it is never parsed,
never logged and never written anywhere.
What is stored
- Alerts you create — the alert itself (market, condition, target), plus the channel ID and server ID it must post back to, and the Discord user ID of whoever created it. This has to persist, or your alerts would not survive a restart.
- A usage counter — for each chart rendered we record the server ID, the requesting user's Discord ID, and a timestamp. It powers the
vc statscommand and tells us which markets are worth supporting.
We do not store the text of your commands, the charts rendered, or any message that was not a command.
Deleting it
vc unalert removes your alerts. To have the usage records for
your server or your user ID deleted, ask in
the Discord
and we will remove them — there is no automated flow for this yet, and we
would rather say so than imply one exists.
Vice Academy: Liquidity Theory
The Academy is a separate site at liqtheory.com. It also has no accounts — your course progress is stored in your browser on that domain. Following the Academy link from here means you are browsing that site under its own terms.
Children
These tools are not directed at children. Discord's own terms require users to be 13 or older, and higher in some countries.
Changes and contact
If any of the above changes in a way that affects what is stored, this page changes with it and the date at the top moves. Questions, corrections or deletion requests go to the Discord.
