Privacy policy

The Dollar Dispatch is a personal finance tool. It shows you your own spending, budgets, and recurring charges. This page describes what it stores and who can see it.

What we collect

• Your name, email address, and profile picture from the Google account you sign in with. Sign-in is handled by Clerk.
• Account balances and transactions from financial institutions you connect through Plaid, or from Apple Wallet if you enable that on iPhone. We never see your bank password; Plaid holds the connection and gives us read-only data.
• Things you create in the app: budgets, category rules, merchant names, exclusion rules, and subscription labels.
• Usage events such as page views and button clicks, collected by PostHog to understand which features get used.

How we use it

Only to run the app for you: showing your transactions, computing budgets and totals, detecting recurring charges, and categorizing spending. Transaction descriptions and amounts may be sent to an automated categorization service to assign a category. We do not sell data, share it with advertisers, or use it to train models.

Where it lives

Data is stored in Convex, the app's database. Bank connections are held by Plaid. Sign-in data is held by Clerk. Each of these providers has its own privacy policy covering the data it handles.

Google user data

We request your Google name, email, and profile picture to create and identify your account. We use them for nothing else. The Dollar Dispatch's use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

Deleting your data

Disconnecting an institution in Settings removes its accounts and transactions. To delete your whole account and everything attached to it, email tannermsharon@gmail.com from the address you signed up with.
