Does OptiView store my broker login credentials?

OptiView connects to brokerage accounts using OAuth 2.0 without storing login credentials. Users authenticate directly with their broker, and OptiView receives a limited-access token instead of a username or password.

How broker connection works

  • OptiView uses OAuth 2.0 to connect securely to brokerage accounts
  • Users are redirected to their broker’s website to log in directly
  • The broker returns a limited-access token to OptiView after authentication
  • OptiView never receives or stores usernames or passwords

Token permissions

  • Tokens grant access only to approved data such as positions, balances, or market data
  • Tokens can allow order instruction submission without exposing login credentials
  • Permissions are defined by the broker and require user approval

Security and user control

  • OptiView encrypts tokens in transit and at rest
  • Users can revoke access at any time through their broker account or within OptiView
  • Access tokens can be limited in scope and duration depending on the broker
