Privacy Policy
Last updated: Feb 2026
The short version
We collect only what we need to run Minas, we never sell your data, and you can delete your account at any time. Details below.
1. What we collect
- Account info — your name, email, profile picture (from Google Sign-in), preferred currency, and time zone.
- Financial data you enter — transactions, budgets, goals, bills and recurring subscriptions. This is your data. You own it.
- Bank-aggregated data (if you opt in) — transactions, balances, and investment holdings pulled via Plaid for accounts you explicitly link. We never see your bank credentials.
- Billing info — handled entirely by Stripe. We store only the session ID and subscription status, never card numbers.
- Product analytics — anonymized usage events (page views, feature usage) via PostHog, so we can make Minas better. No financial details are sent.
2. How we use your data
- To run the core features of Minas (dashboards, weekly Money Moments, goals, etc.).
- To send you email you’ve opted into — welcome, activation, weekly Money Moment, billing receipts.
- To generate AI insights (Claude, OpenAI) grounded in your own numbers.
- To detect abuse and keep the service running.
We never sell your personal or financial data to third parties.
3. Who we share data with (sub-processors)
- Google — for sign-in (name, email, profile picture only).
- Plaid — if you opt in to bank linking.
- Stripe — for payments, if you subscribe.
- Resend — to deliver email you’ve opted into.
- Anthropic (Claude) & OpenAI — to generate Money Moments, Ask Minas answers, and Audio Money Moment narration. We send only anonymized summaries of your numbers, never raw account identifiers.
- PostHog — anonymized product analytics.
- MongoDB Atlas / our hosting provider — to store your data securely.
4. How long we keep it
We keep your account and financial data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we remove your personal data within 30 days, with limited retention of billing records we’re required to keep for tax/compliance.
5. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- Access the data we hold about you.
- Correct or delete your data.
- Export your data (CSV).
- Opt out of analytics or marketing emails.
- Complain to your local data protection authority.
Email privacy@tryminas.com and we’ll respond within 30 days.
6. Cookies & local storage
Minas uses localStorage to keep you signed in (a session token) and remember your preferred currency. PostHog may set a cookie to count unique visits. We do not run advertising cookies.
7. Security
We use HTTPS everywhere, store data encrypted at rest, and follow standard industry practice. No system is perfectly secure — if you suspect an issue, email us immediately at security@tryminas.com.
8. Children
Minas is not intended for children under 16. If we learn we’ve collected data from a child under 16, we’ll delete it.
9. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as Minas evolves. Material changes will be highlighted in-app or emailed to you.
