Privacy Policy

Who we are

FundWatcher (fundwatcher.app) is operated by DisclosureMap LLC ("DisclosureMap," "we," "us"). The Site presents mutual fund and ETF information derived from public U.S. SEC EDGAR filings. It is informational only, is not investment advice, and is not affiliated with the SEC. This policy describes how we handle information in connection with the Site.

No accounts and no personal data you give us

FundWatcher has no user accounts, logins, or sign-up forms, and we do not ask you to submit personal information to browse it. We do not sell your personal information. The only information involved is the technical and usage data described below, which is collected automatically through our hosting provider and the third-party services we use.

Information collected automatically

Like most websites, our servers and hosting provider automatically record standard technical log information when you visit — such as your IP address, browser and device type, the pages you request, referring pages, and the date and time of your request. We use this information to operate, secure, and troubleshoot the Site and to understand aggregate traffic. These logs are retained only for a limited period.

Cookies and analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 to understand aggregate, largely anonymous usage of the Site (for example, pages viewed, approximate location, and device or browser type). Google Analytics sets cookies and processes your IP address and usage data on our behalf to provide these measurements. We use this to improve the Site, not to identify you individually.

Advertising

We use Google AdSense to display advertising, which helps keep FundWatcher free. Google and its advertising partners use cookies (including the DoubleClick cookie) and similar technologies to serve ads, and may personalize those ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Third-party vendors, including Google, may also show our ads on other sites across the internet.

Your consent and choices

Where required by law, we present a consent choice before non-essential cookies (such as analytics and advertising cookies) are set, and non-essential cookies remain disabled until you make a choice. Depending on where you live — for example, in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or California — you may have additional rights over how your data and cookies are used, and we honor recognized opt-out signals such as the Global Privacy Control where applicable. You can also control or block cookies through your browser settings, though blocking them may affect how parts of the Site work.

We do not knowingly use the Site to sell personal information or to share it for cross-context behavioral advertising beyond the third-party advertising described above, and the opt-out links in that section let you limit ad personalization.

Third-party links

The Site links to external resources, including SEC EDGAR and other websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of sites we link to; their own policies govern your use of them.

International users

FundWatcher is operated from the United States and is intended for users in the United States. If you access it from elsewhere, you do so on your own initiative, and your information may be processed in the United States.

Children's privacy

The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take appropriate steps.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by the "Last updated" date above; your continued use of the Site after an update means you accept the revised policy.
