Privacy Policy

Effective date: 2026-06-26

Even Cents is built on a simple principle: your data stays yours. This policy explains what the service collects, and what we do — and don't do — with it.

1. What we collect

Even Cents collects only what is necessary to operate the service:

• Account credentials. Your email address and a salted, hashed password.
• Financial data you enter. Paycheck amounts, bill names, card names, savings targets, and allocation records. This data is encrypted at rest (see Section 5 below).
• Standard server logs. Basic request information (IP address, browser user-agent, timestamps) for security and operational purposes. Retained only briefly and not used to build profiles.

We do not use advertising networks, third-party trackers, or social media pixels. We do not sell or rent personal information.

2. How we use your information

We use your information solely to operate, maintain, and improve Even Cents. We do not sell it, share it for marketing, or add you to any mailing list.

3. Data retention

We retain your account and financial data for as long as your account is active. You may request deletion of your account and all associated data at any time by contacting us (see Section 9).

4. Data sharing and disclosure

We do not sell or share your personal information. We may disclose information if required by law, regulation, legal process, or enforceable governmental request, or where necessary to protect our rights or safety.

The service is operated using third-party hosting infrastructure. Such providers may incidentally process data in server logs strictly to deliver the service.

5. Encryption at rest

Your financial data (paychecks, bills, cards, savings allocations) is encrypted at rest under a key derived from your password. We cannot read your financial data in the database or in backups — and neither can anyone else, including us.

If you lose both your password and your recovery code, your financial data is unrecoverable. We have no mechanism to decrypt it on your behalf. Keep your recovery code in a safe place.

6. Security

We take reasonable technical measures to protect your information. No method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Children's privacy

Even Cents is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the effective date above. Your continued use of the service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
