Overview
Reamer Labs is the trade name of Chaitanya Anil Palghadmal, a sole proprietor ("we", "us", "our"). We operate the website reamerlabs.com, the Reamer desktop application, and the reamer_py Python package. This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect, why we collect it, who we share it with, and what choices you have.
We collect the minimum information necessary to issue and validate software licenses. We do not sell your data, run advertising, or track your usage of the software beyond what is required for license enforcement.
Information we collect
Information you provide
- Email address — provided at checkout via Paddle. Used to deliver your license key and send renewal notices.
- License key — generated by our license server upon successful purchase and stored in our key–value store linked to your email.
Information collected automatically
- License activation requests — when you activate Reamer, the application contacts
licenses.reamerlabs.comwith your license key to verify validity. We log the key and the timestamp of the request. We do not log your IP address or machine identifiers beyond what Cloudflare records at the infrastructure level (see Third-party services). - Offline validation — after activation, all license checks are performed locally against the activation file stored on your machine. No network requests are made during normal operation. The server is contacted only when you explicitly activate or deactivate a license.
Information we do NOT collect
- Strategy code, backtest configurations, or trading data
- Usage telemetry, feature analytics, or crash reports
- Payment card numbers, bank details, or billing addresses (handled entirely by Paddle)
- Names, physical addresses, or phone numbers
How we use your information
| Purpose | Data used | Legal basis |
|---|---|---|

We do not use your information for marketing to third parties, profiling, or any automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects.
Third-party services
We use a small set of infrastructure providers. Each receives only the data necessary for their function.
| Provider | Role | Data shared | Privacy policy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Paddle | Payment processing and checkout | Email address, payment details (card data handled entirely by Paddle — never reaches our servers) | paddle.com/legal/privacy |
| Cloudflare | License server hosting (licenses.reamerlabs.com) and key–value storage |
License keys and activation timestamps stored in Cloudflare KV. Cloudflare processes request metadata (IP, timestamps) per their standard infrastructure practices. | cloudflare.com/privacypolicy |
| Resend | Transactional email delivery | Email address and license key, sent once at purchase to deliver your key | resend.com/legal/privacy-policy |
We do not share your information with any other third parties. We do not use advertising networks, social media pixels, or analytics platforms on reamerlabs.com or in the software.
Storage and security
Your email address and license key are stored in Cloudflare Workers KV, a globally distributed key–value store operated by Cloudflare. Data is encrypted at rest and in transit. All communication between Reamer and the license server uses HTTPS.
Your license key is also stored locally on your machine at ~/.config/reamer/activation.json so the application can function without a network call on every launch. This file is readable only by your user account.
No payment card data or billing information is stored by Reamer Labs at any point. All payment data is held by Paddle under their PCI DSS compliance.
Data retention
We retain your email address and license key for as long as your license is active and for a reasonable period afterward to handle support requests and disputes. Specifically:
- Active license: email and key are retained for the full license term.
- Expired license: retained for up to 12 months after expiry to assist with renewal disputes.
- Revoked or refunded license: retained for up to 90 days, then deleted.
You may request deletion of your data at any time by contacting us at privacy@reamerlabs.com. Deletion will deactivate any associated license keys.
Your rights
Depending on your jurisdiction you may have some or all of the following rights regarding the personal data we hold about you:
- Access — request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Correction — request correction of inaccurate data (e.g. a misspelled email address).
- Deletion — request that we delete your email address and license key. Deletion deactivates your license.
- Restriction — request that we stop processing your data while a dispute is resolved.
