01
Privacy policy
SquawkIQ LLC (“SquawkIQ,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This policy describes how we handle information when you visit SquawkIQ.com, create an account, or use our services.
Information we collect
- Account and subscription information: your name, email address, account credentials, subscription status, and billing information supplied through our payment processor.
- Product preferences: watchlists, tickers, keywords, and alert settings you choose to use.
- Technical and usage information: device, browser, IP address, pages or features used, log data, approximate usage timestamps, and device push tokens when you enable notifications.
- Support communications: information you send us when you contact support.
Web payments are processed through Stripe; purchases made through Apple are handled by Apple. We receive subscription and transaction details needed to verify access. We do not store full payment-card numbers on our systems.
How we use and share information
We use information to operate, secure, personalize, support, bill for, and improve SquawkIQ; to communicate about your account; and to comply with legal obligations. We do not sell personal information. We may share information with service providers that support our payments, hosting, analytics, customer support, security, and communications, or when required to comply with law, protect rights and safety, or complete a business transaction.
Your choices and requests
You may update account preferences in the service and manage notification permissions in your device settings. The iPhone app also provides an account-deletion option. To request access, correction, deletion, or information about your personal information, contact Support@SquawkIQ.com. We may need to verify your identity and may retain information where required or permitted by law. Residents of jurisdictions with additional privacy rights may have rights to know, correct, delete, limit, or opt out of certain processing, subject to applicable law.
Retention and security
We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the service, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and meet legal obligations. We use reasonable safeguards, but no internet transmission or storage system is completely secure.
02
Terms of service
By accessing or using SquawkIQ, creating an account, or starting a trial or subscription, you agree to these Terms and the Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the service. You must be at least 18 years old and able to enter into a binding agreement to use a paid subscription.
What SquawkIQ provides
SquawkIQ is a market-news organization tool. It provides a headline feed, watchlists, optional audio Squawk alerts, and other features that may be made available from time to time. When Squawk audio is enabled, only newly received headlines that match a user's watchlist are intended to be read aloud; general feed items are not automatically read aloud. The service is not a brokerage, exchange, trading platform, investment adviser, or execution venue.
Accounts and acceptable use
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and for activity under it. Accounts are for individual use. A new sign-in may end an earlier session on another device. You may not share, resell, copy, redistribute, scrape, archive, reverse engineer, interfere with, or attempt to replicate the service, content, feeds, software, or access controls. You may not use the service unlawfully or in a way that harms SquawkIQ, its providers, or other users. We may suspend or terminate access for a violation of these Terms or to protect the service.
Third-party content and availability
Headlines and other information may come from third-party sources. We do not control those sources and do not guarantee that content will be accurate, complete, available, or delivered on a particular schedule. Content may be delayed, changed, duplicated, interrupted, or unavailable. Features may be modified, discontinued, or affected by maintenance, network conditions, or third-party services.
Intellectual property
SquawkIQ and its logos, interface, software, design, and original content are owned by SquawkIQ LLC or its licensors and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, personal, non-transferable, revocable right to use the service for your own internal, lawful use while you have an active subscription, eligible trial, or authorized complimentary access.
03
Billing, free trial & cancellation
Eligible new subscribers can start with a 3-day free trial where offered. The checkout or Apple purchase screen shows your applicable price, trial eligibility, and renewal terms. At signup, you authorize the applicable recurring charge after the trial ends unless you cancel before the trial expires.
- Automatic renewal: subscriptions renew automatically at the selected interval until canceled.
- Trial eligibility: one free trial is permitted per person, account, payment method, or household, to the extent permitted by law. We may deny or end a trial if we reasonably believe it is being misused.
- Cancellation: you may cancel through the account controls or by following the cancellation instructions provided in the service. Cancellation takes effect for the next renewal period; you retain paid access through the end of the current billing period unless otherwise stated.
- Refunds: you can cancel to prevent future renewals. Payments already processed are non-refundable except where applicable law or the billing provider’s rules require otherwise. For Apple-billed purchases, request a refund through Apple; Apple determines eligibility under its policies.
- Apple subscriptions: manage or cancel Apple-billed memberships in your Apple Account subscription settings. Removing the app or signing out does not cancel your subscription.
- Complimentary access: an administrator may grant access for a stated period or until revoked. This does not create a paid subscription, cancel an existing subscription, or automatically charge you when complimentary access ends.
- Billing questions: contact Support@SquawkIQ.com promptly if you believe there is a billing error.
We will clearly present the price, billing interval, automatic-renewal terms, and cancellation path when you enroll. Subscription terms must be accepted at checkout.

Financial and market-information disclaimer
For informational purposes only. SquawkIQ content, including headlines, audio alerts, automated speech, summaries, commentary, tags, and any other output, is provided for general informational purposes only. It is not investment, financial, legal, tax, accounting, or other professional advice.
- Nothing on SquawkIQ is a recommendation or solicitation to buy, sell, hold, or trade any security, option, cryptocurrency, or other financial instrument.
- SquawkIQ does not provide personalized investment advice, monitor your trading activity, manage accounts, or act as your broker, dealer, investment adviser, or fiduciary.
- SquawkIQ aims to deliver timely information. Coverage, accuracy, and delivery times depend on source publication, processing, connectivity, and device conditions; no specific delivery deadline or complete coverage is promised.
- Automated or AI-assisted features, where offered, can be inaccurate or incomplete and should be independently verified.
- Trading and investing involve substantial risk, including the possible loss of all invested capital. You alone are responsible for your decisions and should consult qualified professionals before acting.
Press releases and source material
Company announcements reflect the issuer’s statements, not independent verification or endorsement by SquawkIQ. Read original releases and filings for context.
Automation and source checks
Automated summaries, speech, and ticker assignments can misinterpret numbers, names, or context. Check material facts against the original source before acting.
Prices, results, and calendars
Prices are informational references, not executable quotes. Estimates vary between providers; reported figures can be revised. Dates, units, currencies, and accounting definitions matter when comparing results.
Analysts and forecasts
Ratings and targets belong to the named analyst, not SquawkIQ. Guidance and forecasts are uncertain; actual outcomes can differ. Past performance does not establish future returns.
External sources and commercial interests
External links follow the other site’s terms and privacy practices. Inclusion does not imply endorsement. Any sponsored placement or compensated referral should be identified where presented.
Corrections
Report suspected errors to Support@SquawkIQ.com with the headline, link, timestamp, and supporting source. We may correct or remove content; users should verify updates.
Watchlists, Rundown, and alerts
Watchlists personalize which information you see and hear; they are not an assessment of suitability for your finances or trading strategy. Rundown selections, sorting, and highlights organize news and are not instructions to trade. A missing ticker, headline, or alert does not mean that no significant event occurred.
Squawk audio and push notifications have separate controls. Delivery depends on your permissions, selected watchlist, connection, app state, and device settings. Alerts may be missed, repeated, or arrive after publication. Use your broker and original sources to confirm information relevant to an order.
Disclaimers and limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SQUAWKIQ IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, TIMELINESS, OR AVAILABILITY. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SQUAWKIQ LLC WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR TRADING LOSSES, LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SQUAWKIQ LLC'S TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF $100 OR THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO SQUAWKIQ FOR THE SERVICE IN THE THREE MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.
Nothing in these policies excludes liability or consumer rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.
Indemnity, governing law, and changes
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless SquawkIQ LLC and its officers, owners, employees, contractors, and providers from claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses arising from your misuse of the service or violation of these Terms. These policies are governed by South Carolina law, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, and disputes will be brought in the state or federal courts located in South Carolina, unless applicable law requires otherwise. We may update these policies by posting a revised effective date. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised policies, to the extent permitted by law.
