Who operates Demand Lab

What this site processes
Public pages request card catalogue, pricing, exchange-rate and public-interest information from the providers credited in Terms, sources & credits. The private Tracker processes Portfolio details, Wishlist choices, grading notes and images that the owner chooses to save.
Private Portfolio and Wishlist
Portfolio and Wishlist records are stored in the site database and uploaded card photographs are stored in private object storage. They are returned only after the server validates the Tracker session. Passwords are not displayed in the browser bundle.
Camera scanning
Scan a Card uses the device camera only after permission is granted. The captured image stays on the device while the card is matched. It is uploaded to private storage only when the owner chooses Portfolio and saves the card.
Public-source data
Demand Lab analyses public post text and engagement data returned by Bluesky and public page-view totals from Wikimedia. It does not ask visitors to sign into those services and does not sell personal information.
Retention and control
Recommendation snapshots are retained so historic claims can be audited. Portfolio records, Wishlist entries and uploaded images remain until the owner replaces or removes them. Infrastructure providers may keep short-lived security and operational logs.
Learning data
When an outcome file is added in the private area, the site saves the dated results so its machine-learning model can compare past forecasts with what actually happened. This information stays in the site's private database and is not sent to ChatGPT or another paid AI service.
Important limitation
This is an independent research tool, not an official Pokémon service. Do not enter payment-card details, identity documents or other sensitive personal information into card notes.
Data approach
The public market experience is powered by real data, free APIs and open information from providers around the world. Source ownership, availability and limitations are explained in Terms, sources & credits.
