Data Storage
Your account data is stored on servers hosted on AWS (EU region). The iOS app stores authentication tokens in the iOS Keychain. The web dashboard uses encrypted HttpOnly cookies for login sessions and a short-lived cookie during Apple sign-in, handled by its Cloudflare Worker.

PolyMacro uses AI models to analyze and tag news articles with relevant asset categories, classify articles as market-moving, and generate contextual summaries. This processing is applied to publicly available news content only — no personal user data is sent to AI services.
