Privacy Policy

Last updated:

Briff Finance is built so that your financial life stays yours. We do not collect personal information, we do not run a cloud service for your records, and we do not track how you use the app. This page explains exactly what that means.

The short version

  • We do not ask for your name, email, phone number or any account.
  • Your income, expenses, budgets and accounts stay on your device.
  • There is no cloud sync, no analytics and no advertising SDK.
  • We cannot see your data, and we cannot recover it for you.
  • Uninstalling the app removes its data from your device.

1. Information we do not collect

Briff Finance has no account system. We do not collect, request or store your name, email address, postal address, phone number, date of birth, government identifiers, payment details or contacts.

We do not collect device identifiers for advertising, we do not build profiles, and we do not sell or share personal information with anyone, because we do not hold any.

  • No registration and no login
  • No analytics or crash-reporting SDKs that identify you
  • No advertising networks or third-party trackers in the app
  • No location data and no access to your photos, contacts or microphone

2. Where your financial data lives

Everything you enter — accounts, transactions, transfers, categories and budgets — is stored in a local database inside the app on your device. It is never uploaded to us and never leaves your device through the app.

You are in control of that data. If you delete a record, it is deleted. If you delete the app, its local database is removed with it. Because we never receive a copy, we cannot restore it for you, which is also why we recommend keeping your own backups.

3. The App Store and payments

Briff Finance is distributed through the Apple App Store. Apple handles the download and any purchase, and Apple may provide developers with aggregated, anonymised reports such as total downloads and, where applicable, sales figures. Those reports contain no personal information about you.

Your relationship with Apple is governed by Apple's own privacy policy, which we do not control.

4. If you email us

If you use the contact form on this site, or email the support and privacy addresses, we receive your email address and whatever you write. We use that only to answer you and to keep a record of the request.

We do not add you to a mailing list, we do not sell or rent your address, and we delete support conversations once they are no longer needed. You can ask us to delete your message at any time by writing to privacy@briff.net.

5. This website

This site is a set of static pages served by a small web server. It sets no advertising or analytics cookies and does not profile visitors.

The site stores two preferences in your browser, using local storage: the light or dark theme you picked, and the language you last selected. Both values stay in your browser and are never sent to us. A third, temporary value in session storage stops the site from redirecting you twice within the same visit. Like most servers, the host may keep short-lived technical logs (IP address, time, requested page) for security and troubleshooting; those logs are not used to identify or track anyone.

6. Children

Briff Finance is a general-purpose finance app and is not directed at children. Because we collect no personal information from anyone, we also collect none from children.

7. Your privacy rights

Regulations such as the GDPR in Europe, the CCPA in California and the LGPD in Brazil give people the right to access, correct, export or delete the personal data a company holds about them.

We support those rights completely, and the practical answer is simple: we hold no personal data about you, so there is nothing to access, export or erase on our side. Your financial records are on your device and under your control. If you believe we hold something about you — for example a support email — write to privacy@briff.net and we will delete it.

8. Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the new version will be published on this page with a new date at the top. Material changes will also be noted in the app's release notes.

9. Contact

Questions about this policy or about privacy in Briff Finance can be sent to privacy@briff.net. General support questions go to support@briff.net.
