Privacy Policy — Budget Planner
Last updated: September 2026
1. Introduction
Budget Planner ("the App") is a personal budgeting and expense tracking app. This policy explains what the App stores, what it sends over the internet, and the choices you have.
2. Data Stored on Your Device
• Expenses: amounts, categories, dates, tags, and notes you enter.
• Income, wallets, recurring obligations, and savings.
• Settings: your preferences such as language, currency, salary day, and app color.
All of this is stored in a database on your device. The App does not upload it to our servers.
3. Data Sent to Our Server
To run the App, a basic anonymous account is created on our server the first time you open it. Each time you open the App, it sends:
• A random identifier generated on your device.
• The app version, the app language, and the device platform (for example, iOS).
Our server records these together with the time you last opened the App. We do not ask for your name, email address, or phone number, and your financial records are not part of this data.
The server also checks whether your account has an active subscription. Like any internet service, our hosting provider receives your device's IP address when the App connects.
4. External Services
• Exchange rates: when you use a foreign currency, the App requests exchange rates from the free Frankfurter API (frankfurter.app). Only currency codes are sent — no personal or financial data.
5. Cloud Backup and Device Transfer
Cloud backup and transfer to a new device are not currently available in the App; they are marked "Soon". If they are offered in the future, they will be optional, and this policy will be updated before they become available.
6. Sharing Your Data
We do not sell your data, and we do not share it with third parties for advertising or any other purpose. The account data described in section 3 is stored by our hosting provider on our behalf.
7. Keeping and Deleting Your Data
• The "Clear Data" option in Settings permanently erases all your financial data from this device. It cannot be undone.
• To have the account data on our server (section 3), or any other data we hold about you, erased, email us at info@basitly.com.
8. Keeping a Copy of Your Data
Because your data is stored only on your device, it is lost if you delete the App or if your device is lost or damaged, and we cannot recover it. You can keep your own copy at any time with "Export Data" in Settings, and restore it with "Import Data".
9. Security
• Sensitive values are kept in your device's secure storage (the iOS Keychain).
• Your PIN is never stored as entered. Only a salted one-way hash of it is kept, on your device.
• Face ID and Touch ID are handled by iOS. The App only receives a success or failure result and never accesses your biometric data.
10. Children's Privacy
The App is intended for a general audience managing personal finances. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time.
The latest version, with the date it was last updated, is always available on our website and in the App, under "Privacy Policy" in Settings.
