Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 2, 2026
1. Introduction
SpendGuard ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights. By using SpendGuard, you agree to the practices described here.
2. Information We Collect
Account Information
Your name, email address, and hashed password when you register.
Transaction Data
Financial transactions you manually enter or upload via CSV. This includes amounts, dates, categories, and merchant names.
Usage Data
Anonymous usage statistics (page views, feature usage) to help us improve the product. No personally identifiable information is included.
3. How We Use Your Data
- Provide and operate the SpendGuard service
- Authenticate you and maintain your session
- Generate financial analytics and reports for your account
- Send you monthly financial summary emails (if enabled)
- Improve the platform based on anonymized usage data
- Respond to your support requests
4. Data Security
We take security seriously. All passwords are hashed using bcrypt before being stored. All API communications use HTTPS. Authentication uses short-lived JWT tokens.
We do not store raw payment credentials, bank account numbers, or any sensitive financial identifiers. Your transaction data is entered manually by you.
5. Data Sharing
We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for advertising or marketing purposes. We do not use your financial data for any purpose other than operating your SpendGuard account.
We may share anonymized, aggregated statistics (e.g., "platform users tracked ৳X this month") publicly. These statistics never identify individual users.
6. Data Retention
Your data is retained for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we will permanently delete all personal data and transaction records within 30 days.
7. Your Rights
- Access: Request a copy of all data we hold about you
- Correction: Update your name, email, or profile information
- Deletion: Permanently delete your account and all associated data
- Portability: Export your transaction data as CSV at any time
- Opt-out: Unsubscribe from email reports at any time
To exercise any of these rights, email us at ridoybaidya2@gmail.com.
8. Cookies
SpendGuard uses a single authentication cookie to keep you logged in between sessions. We do not use advertising cookies, tracking pixels, or third-party analytics cookies.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you by email and update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of SpendGuard after changes constitutes acceptance.
