Identity association

Haystack application data
Simulation state, not financial account authority.
Haystack is designed to associate Discord users with paper-trading and property-review records. It is not designed to receive brokerage credentials, bank credentials, payment-card information, authentication credentials, sensitive access material, custody access, or real-order authority.
Paper portfolio
Simulated cash, positions, cost basis, estimated value, and paper-trade history may be stored to provide portfolio and review features.
Community features
Simulated portfolio values may be used for server-level leaderboard and comparison features.
Property inputs
User-provided locations, price ranges, financing assumptions, costs, strategies, thresholds, and saved property-watch values may be stored.
Operational evidence
Bounded health and error information may be retained to operate, diagnose, secure, and recover the application.
No real execution
Haystack does not custody funds, connect a brokerage account, or place real market orders.
Removal and retention
Use the application data-removal command.
Haystack exposes a command-surface control for removing stored paper-portfolio data. The exact command name is intentionally not invented here because the current public source reviewed for this statement does not name it. Use the removal option shown by the installed application.
Current public commitment
User-initiated application-data removal
Users can request removal through Haystack's command surface.
Current limitation
No fixed public retention guarantee yet
A specific retention schedule, operational-log window, and immediate backup-erasure timeline are not currently promised on the public product pages.
Discord installation
Discord's approval screen is the authoritative permission list.
Requested scopes and permissions can change independently of static website copy. Review the exact installation screen before approving Haystack, reject permissions you do not understand, and never provide authentication credentials or sensitive access material.
Review
Read every requested permission
Confirm the installation target and permissions inside Discord before approval.
Minimize
Do not grant unrelated authority
Do not approve unexpected administrative access merely to use simulation or educational features.
Protect
Never share authentication credentials
Barndoor Labs does not need authentication credentials, brokerage credentials, or banking credentials.
Market and property information
Data and calculations can be incomplete or wrong.
Market quotes may be delayed, unavailable, unsupported, adjusted, or incomplete. Property calculations depend on user-provided assumptions and are not listings, appraisals, lending decisions, tax advice, legal advice, or investment recommendations.
Verification
Check material facts independently
Verify prices, terms, taxes, insurance, fees, and legal requirements with authoritative sources before acting.
Responsibility
Users make their own decisions
Haystack provides simulation and organization tools, not professional judgment or guaranteed outcomes.
