Scope

Welcome to CashDash’s Privacy Statement. Your right to privacy and online security is central to our mission. This Privacy Statement describes CashDash’s collection, protection, disclosure, and use of the personal information provided to or collected through our service. This Privacy Statement applies to all of CashDash’s websites, mobile applications, and online services that link to or reference this Privacy Statement.

If you do not agree with any of the practices described in this Privacy Statement, please do not use our services.

Quick Overview

CashDash is a private financial ledger designed to give you absolute clarity over your spending. You choose what data to track and how you want to categorize it. Unlike public social ledgers, your expenses in CashDash are not made public. They are stored securely and visible only to you through your authenticated account.

In order to use CashDash and enable features like Cloud Sync, you will need to create an account, which requires providing registration information such as name, email address, and phone number. We use this information to manage your account and keep your data synchronized across devices.

Data We Collect

When you use CashDash, we may collect the following information about you:

Information You Provide to Us

Registration Information: When you sign up, you provide your name, email address, phone number, and date of birth. We require an email address so that you can access your data from any device and we can contact you about your account.
User-Generated Content: When using the service, you provide information concerning expenses, balances, and categories. This includes transaction descriptions, amounts, custom category names, budget limits, and notes. This data is processed to generate your visual spending rings and analytics.
Feedback and Support: Any feedback, questions, or suggestions you send us are used to improve the service quality.

Automated Information Collection & Sensitive Permissions

Device and Usage Information: We receive information about the device you use, your operating system, and app version. We also collect data on how you interact with CashDash — such as the features you use, the frequency of your entries, and overall app performance diagnostics.
Location Information: We may receive approximate location data based on your IP address to ensure account security and regulatory compliance.
App Usage Stats (PACKAGE_USAGE_STATS): To power the "TapTrack - Smart Shopping Assistant" feature, CashDash requests access to your device's app usage statistics. This permission is used strictly locally on your device to detect when you open specific supported shopping or travel applications (e.g., Amazon, Rapido). We do not collect, store, or transmit your overall app usage history to our servers or any third parties.
System Alert Window (Overlays): CashDash requests the overlay permission to display the TapTrack - Smart Shopping Assistant widget over other apps. This is only triggered when interacting with relevant shopping or travelling apps to provide budgeting reminders, and it does not record your screen or read content from the underlying apps.

How We Use Your Data

We process your information to provide, support, and secure our service. Specific use cases include:

Financial Visualization: To calculate and display your wallet balance ring and category-wise spending analytics.
Account Synchronization: To ensure your financial history is available whenever you log in from a new device.
Security Monitoring: To detect and protect against unauthorized access, fraud, or other criminal activity. We monitor suspicious login attempts and device IDs to protect your account.
Service Improvement: To analyze usage patterns, perform product development, troubleshoot bugs, and improve our premium aesthetic design and functionality.
Communication: To alert you about new features, security issues, or critical account updates (e.g., password resets).

We do not share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes. We only share information in the following limited contexts:

Service Providers and Vendors

We use third-party service providers like Google Firebase to host our database (Firestore) and handle secure authentication. These vendors are contractually obligated to protect your information in accordance with this Privacy Statement. Data processed includes crash reports for bug fixing and encrypted authentication tokens.

Legal Requirements

We will disclose personal information only when required by applicable law, such as to respond to subpoenas, court orders, or to protect the safety of our users or the integrity of our network.

Security & Data Ethics

We take the security of your financial data seriously. We use stringent technical and administrative safeguards, ensuring your data is collected and stored within a highly secure, enterprise-grade database. This includes utilizing TLS encryption for all data in transit and AES-256 cryptographic encryption for data at rest within our cloud infrastructure.

Professional Ethics: We explicitly commit to not secretly tracking your location and not scanning your personal SMS/contacts. Furthermore, under no circumstances do we sell, rent, or trade your personal data or financial behavior to data brokers, ad networks, or any other third parties.

Choice, Access & Data Retention

Your Choices

Personal Information: You can review and update your name, email, phone number, and date of birth at any time from your Account Settings.

Children's Privacy (COPPA)

Our services are not directed to, and we do not knowingly collect personal identifiable information from, children under the age of 13. If we discover that a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, we will immediately execute a secure deletion of this data from our servers. If you are a parent or guardian and become aware that your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately.

Third-Party Links & Services

Our application may contain deep links or integrations with external third-party services (e.g., UPI payment gateways or external shopping applications). We are not responsible for the privacy practices, data collection protocols, or the content of these external sites or services. We strongly advise you to review the privacy policies of any third-party service you interact with.

Account Deletion

You possess the right to initiate the deletion of your account and its associated dataset at any time.

In-App Self-Service Deletion: You can permanently delete your account directly within the App by navigating to Profile → Delete Account. Executing this action triggers an immediate and synchronous cryptographic wipe of your authentication record, profile data, and complete transaction history from our active database. Consequently, the registered email address is instantly freed, permitting the provisioning of a new account under the identical email address without delay.
Manual Deletion Request: Alternatively, you may initiate a manual account deletion by sending an email to info@cashdash.co.in with the subject line "Account Deletion Request". This request must be sent exclusively from the email address registered to your account. Because manual requests require administrative verification to ensure account security, it may take up to 7 business days to fully process and execute the data wipe.
Irreversibility: Irrespective of the deletion vector utilized, all data purging operations are absolute and irreversible.

Data Retention

We maintain your personal data strictly for the duration necessary to deliver our services. Upon account deletion, active database records are purged according to the synchronous (in-app) or asynchronous (manual) timelines detailed above. Post-deletion, residual diagnostic logs may be retained temporarily in an aggregated and anonymized format solely for infrastructure auditing and standard server maintenance.

Changes to this Privacy Statement

We may update this Privacy Statement periodically. Significant changes will be communicated via in-app alerts. The "Last Updated" date at the top indicates the most recent revision.
