Table of Contents

Overview

Dausthaan MoneyManager: Budget & Ledger ("we", "our", or "the app") is a personal finance application developed by Dausthaan. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our Android application.

๐Ÿ” The short version: Dausthaan MoneyManager is designed to be private by default. Your financial data lives on your device. We do not sell your data, share it with advertisers, or upload it to external servers without your explicit action.

By using Dausthaan MoneyManager, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the application.

Information We Collect

Dausthaan MoneyManager collects minimal information required for core functionality and optional features:

โ˜๏ธ Google Drive Cloud Backup (Optional)

If you choose to enable cloud backups, we use Google Sign-In to authenticate your account. We use the restricted drive.appdata scope to securely store your backup files in a hidden, application-specific folder within your Google Drive. We do not have access to your personal files, emails, or other Google Drive data. The authentication details (like your email and display name) are only used locally to show your connected account status.

๐Ÿ“ฑ Device & App Usage Data

Anonymous crash reports and basic performance data (via Firebase Crashlytics) to help us fix bugs. This does not include any personal or financial information.

๐Ÿ’ณ Subscription Information

If you subscribe to Dausthaan MoneyManager Pro, purchase data is processed by Google Play Billing. We receive a subscription status token only โ€” never your full card details or payment credentials.

๐Ÿ”„ PC Sync (Premium Feature โ€” Optional)

If you use the PC Sync feature, your transaction data may be temporarily transmitted over your local network or a secure relay to sync between devices. This data is encrypted in transit and never stored on our servers.

What We Do NOT Collect

We are committed to your financial privacy. The following data is never collected or transmitted by Dausthaan MoneyManager:

  • Bank account numbers, card numbers, or financial credentials
  • Your transaction history, spending habits, or budget limits
  • Photos or files stored on your device (outside of app functionality)
  • Location data or GPS coordinates
  • Contacts, messages, or call logs
  • Biometric data of any kind
  • Advertising identifiers or behavioral profiles

Local Storage & Your Data

All financial data you enter into Dausthaan MoneyManager โ€” transactions, accounts, categories, budgets, books, and settings โ€” is stored exclusively on your device using a local Room database (SQLite).

This means:

  • Your data is private to your device by default
  • Uninstalling the app will permanently delete all locally stored data
  • Clearing app data from Android Settings also deletes all local records
  • No cloud backup occurs unless you explicitly enable Google Drive Backup or use PC Sync

โš ๏ธ Important: We recommend regularly exporting your data or enabling Google Drive Backup, as we cannot recover data lost due to uninstallation or device reset.

App Permissions

Dausthaan MoneyManager requests only the permissions necessary for its features:

๐ŸŒ INTERNET

Required for: Subscription verification via Google Play, crash reporting, optional PC Sync, and communicating with Google Drive for backups. Not used to transmit your financial data to our servers.

๐Ÿ“ถ ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE

Children's Privacy

Dausthaan MoneyManager is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect any information from children. If you believe a child has provided information through the app, please contact us immediately at the address below and we will take steps to remove such information.

Data Security

We take data security seriously and implement the following safeguards:

  • All data is stored locally using Android's sandboxed app storage โ€” inaccessible to other apps without root access
  • Google Drive Cloud Backups use encrypted API channels and are sandboxed from other Drive files
  • PC Sync data transmission uses encrypted channels
  • Subscription tokens are handled via Google's secure OAuth infrastructure
  • We never log, cache, or transmit your transaction data to external servers

While we implement strong security practices, no method of electronic storage or transmission is 100% secure. We encourage you to protect your device with a screen lock.
