Privacy policy

Last updated [DATE]

This policy explains what personal information [COMPANY LEGAL NAME] (“IE Tracker”, “we”) collects through the IE Tracker app and this website, why, and what you can do about it. We handle it under Ghana’s Data Protection Act, 2012 (Act 843); our registration number with the Data Protection Commission is [DATA PROTECTION COMMISSION REGISTRATION NUMBER]. See also our terms of use.

1. What we collect

Your account

  • Your name, and the email address or phone number you sign in with.
  • If you sign in with Google: your Google name, email and profile photo.
  • The currency you choose.
  • One-time codes we text or email you to sign in, kept only until they expire.

What you record

  • Your entries: amount, type, category, description, date and account.
  • Receipt photos you attach to an entry.
  • Your accounts (such as Cash or MoMo), transfers between them, categories, budgets and repeating bills.

You type these in yourself. We don’t connect to your bank or Mobile Money wallet and never see their balances.

Payments for a plan

  • Your plan, its invoices, and whether and when each was paid.
  • How you paid, as Paystack reports it: for example “MoMo · MTN •••4567” or a card’s brand and last four digits. Card numbers and PINs go to Paystack and never reach us.

Your device

  • A notification token, so we can send you reminders, renewal notices and receipts.
  • A copy of your recent entries and any not yet sent, kept on your phone so the app works offline.

2. Why we use it

  • To run your account: save your entries, add them up, and show your budgets and reports.
  • To bill you for a paid plan, renew it, and send receipts.
  • To send the notifications you’d expect: repeating bills recorded, budgets running out, renewals due.
  • To answer you when you contact us, and to keep the service secure and working.

We don’t sell your information, and we don’t use your entries for advertising. Our staff can see your account and billing details to help you, but not your entries.

3. Who we share it with

Only the services that run IE Tracker for us, each for its own part:

  • Paystack, which takes payments for paid plans.
  • Cloudinary, which stores receipt photos.
  • Google, for Google sign-in and to deliver notifications (Firebase Cloud Messaging).
  • Our email and SMS providers, to send sign-in codes, receipts and notices.
  • Our hosting and database providers, which store the service’s data.

Some of these keep data outside Ghana. We also share information when the law requires it.

4. How long we keep it

  • Your account and everything in it: until you delete your account.
  • Payment records: [NUMBER] years, as financial records must be kept, without your name or contact details once your account is deleted.

5. Your choices and rights

  • See and correct your information in the app at any time.
  • Export all of it from Profile › Your data.
  • Delete your account and its data.
  • Turn notifications off in your phone’s settings.
  • Ask us what we hold about you, or complain to the Data Protection Commission of Ghana.

6. Children

IE Tracker isn’t meant for children under 13, and we don’t knowingly collect their information.

7. Changes

If we change this policy in a way that matters, we’ll tell you in the app before it applies.
