Privacy Policy
BalanceWhiz is built around operational trust. This page summarizes what we collect and why — in plain language, not legalese wallpaper.
What we collect
The minimum needed to run the product well:
- Account details you provide — for example your name and email address.
- Forecast and household data you enter in the product (bills, income, balances, account notes, and the categories you create).
- Basic technical information required to securely operate the product — for example authentication cookies, server logs, and any support messages you send us.
What we don't do
- We don't require linking your bank.
- We don't sell your personal data to data brokers.
- We don't use your forecast or household data to build advertising profiles.
- We don't share your data with third parties for their own marketing.
How we use information
We use your information to operate your account, generate your forecast, respond to support requests, meet legal obligations, and protect the security and integrity of the service. That's it.
Security
Data is transmitted over TLS and stored on managed infrastructure with industry-standard safeguards. We use scoped credentials, principle-of-least-privilege access, and routine backups. No system is perfect — if we ever experience an incident that affects your data, we'll tell you about it.
Retention
We keep your information as long as your account is active, and for a reasonable period afterward to support backups, dispute resolution, and legal requirements. You can request deletion of your data at any time via Contact Us.
Your controls
You can:
- Update your account details or change your password from inside the product.
- Export or delete your data on request — we'll respond within a reasonable timeframe.
- Cancel your subscription at any time; we'll stop charging immediately.
