Privacy Policy

This policy explains what SmartFinance collects, why it is collected, and the choices available to you.

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how SmartFinance collects, uses, stores, shares, and protects personal information when you use the service.

2. Information We Collect

We may collect information you provide, including your name, email address, username, account details, subscription preferences, and support communications.

We may also collect information automatically, including IP address, device information, browser information, operating system, referring URLs, usage statistics, log data, cookies, and similar technologies.

We may collect analytics information about pages viewed, time spent, interactions with content, newsletter engagement, and platform performance.

3. How We Use Information

SmartFinance uses information to provide and improve the service, manage accounts, process subscriptions, send newsletters and alerts, analyze usage, prevent fraud and abuse, respond to support requests, and comply with legal obligations.

4. Cookies and Analytics

SmartFinance uses strictly necessary cookies and browser storage immediately because they are required to operate the service and keep core authenticated workflows available.

Preferences, analytics, and marketing cookies or similar browser storage are blocked until you explicitly opt in through the cookie settings interface.

Preference items remain local to your browser and are only used to remember UI or UX choices such as dismissed prompts, display settings, and similar interface memory.

5. Sharing Information

We may share information with service providers such as hosting providers, cloud infrastructure providers, email delivery providers, analytics providers, and customer support providers.

We may share limited subscription and account information with Stripe as our sole payment processor in order to create, manage, and reconcile paid subscriptions.

We may also share limited information with advertisers and marketing partners to measure campaign performance, improve marketing effectiveness, deliver relevant advertisements, and analyze audience engagement.

We may disclose information when required by law, court order, regulator, or law enforcement request.

6. Payment Processors

Stripe is the sole payment processor for SmartFinance subscriptions.

Stripe is solely responsible for payment processing and for keeping payment information secure. SmartFinance does not store full card details.

Payment information is collected and processed directly by Stripe, and you should review Stripe terms at https://stripe.com/legal/ssa.

7. Retention and Security

We retain information only as long as reasonably necessary for service operation, legal compliance, security purposes, and legitimate business interests.

We use commercially reasonable safeguards designed to protect information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction, but no system can guarantee absolute security.

8. International Transfers

Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your country of residence. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for such transfers.

9. Your Rights

Depending on applicable law, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, object to, or port your personal data, as well as withdraw consent where applicable.

10. Children

SmartFinance is not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.

11. Third-Party Links
