Privacy notice
HoldingScope is a product of 4Ravu LLC. Last updated 22 October 2026.
This site is a coming-soon page. It has no accounts, logins or payments, and it does not ask for any portfolio or financial information.
What the sign-up form collects
- Interests you choose (for example, “Investment overlap”), if any, and the time you submitted.
- Email address, only if you choose to enter one.
- Your agreement to launch updates, only when you enter an email: the time you agreed and the version of the wording you agreed to (
launch-updates-v1: “Email me HoldingScope launch updates at the address above. I can ask to be removed at any time.”).
If you choose interests but no email, we store the interests and the time only. That does not subscribe you to anything and we have no way to contact you. If you send the form again with the same email, we combine your interests and keep your original agreement; we do not tell the form whether an address was already on the list.
Why we collect it
Interests help us decide what to build first. Your email address is used only to tell you when HoldingScope launches, and only if you ticked the box. We do not sell your information or use it for advertising.
Where it is stored
Responses are stored in a dedicated database on 4Ravu’s own servers, separate from SmartRetireCalc’s retirement and portfolio data. Email addresses are not shown on the website or placed in page addresses, and are not part of any usage counts.
Logs, usage counts and security
- Like any website, our hosting and network providers, including Cloudflare and our own servers, process IP addresses and basic request details to deliver the site and keep it secure, and may keep them in operational logs for a limited time. For that reason we do not describe use of this site as anonymous.
- To limit abuse, the sign-up form counts attempts per visitor for a few minutes. This uses a scrambled form of your IP address held only in the server’s memory; it is never saved with your response and disappears quickly or when the server restarts.
- We keep simple daily totals of page visits and of clicks on the Portfolio Lab link, and we count form submissions and sign-ups from the responses themselves. The totals use no cookies and no identifier, and never include your email address or answers. They show interest in the site, not that anyone is using a product.
Portfolio Lab link
“Try Portfolio Lab now” takes you to SmartRetireCalc, a separate site, which has its own privacy practices and sign-in rules. We do not share anything from this form with it.
How long we keep it, and removal
We delete sign-up emails and answers within 90 days after we announce the HoldingScope launch. If HoldingScope has not launched 24 months after you sign up, we delete them then. Answers shared without an email follow the same schedule. Deletion runs automatically every day.
You can ask us to remove your information sooner at any time: email privacy@4ravu.com from the address you signed up with, or tell us which address to remove. Answers given without an email have nothing attached that identifies you, so we cannot tell which ones are yours.
Backups. Deleting something removes it from our live database straight away, but it is not removed from backup copies immediately. Our database backups are deleted automatically 14 days after they are made, so for up to 14 days after we delete something a copy may still exist in a backup.
