Privacy Policy

1. Who we are

FlowBudget is an iOS application developed by Riccardo Nestola. Contact: support@getflowbudget.com.

2. Data we collect

FlowBudget does not collect personal data. All data you enter in the app is saved exclusively on your device and is never transmitted to us or third parties.

Data saved locally:

• Financial transactions (amounts, dates, categories, notes)
• Custom accounts
• Custom categories
• Recurring transactions
• Currencies and exchange rates
• Receipt photos (local external storage)
• Preferences and settings

Network connections:

The app makes only two types of network requests: updating exchange rates via a public API, and sending anonymous usage statistics to TelemetryDeck (see section 5). Neither contains personal or financial data.

3. In-app purchases (Pro)

In-app purchases are managed entirely by Apple through the App Store. We do not have access to your payment data. For refunds and subscription cancellations: Settings → [your name] → Subscriptions.

4. iCloud Sync (Pro Plan)

With the Pro plan you can enable iCloud sync. Data is synced through your personal iCloud account, managed by Apple. We do not have access to synced data.

5. Third-party services

Exchange rates

Anonymous requests to a public API. No personal data transmitted.

TelemetryDeck (analytics)

FlowBudget uses TelemetryDeck for anonymous, aggregated usage statistics; no financial or personal data ever leaves your device. TelemetryDeck is GDPR-compliant, hosted in the EU, and does not use identifiers that can be traced back to you. For details, see the TelemetryDeck privacy policy.

Face ID / Touch ID

Authentication managed by iOS via system APIs. FlowBudget does not have access to biometric data.

Siri & Shortcuts

Voice requests are processed by Apple on-device. FlowBudget does not receive or process voice content.

iOS Widgets

Widgets share data with the app via App Groups — a local iOS feature. Data never leaves the device.

6. Data security

• Encrypted local data: Your information is protected by built-in iOS security
• iOS Sandbox: The app only has access to its own data in an isolated environment
• Biometric authentication: Optional Face ID / Touch ID
• Privacy mode: Hides all amounts on screen
• No connection required: The app works completely offline

7. Your rights

• Access: you can view all your data in the app
• Edit: you can modify any data
• Deletion: you can delete individual transactions or all data
• Export: CSV or JSON backup (Pro)
• Portability: your data is on your device, not on third-party servers

For any request: support@getflowbudget.com.

8. Children

FlowBudget is not intended for children under 4. We do not knowingly collect information from minors.
