How we protect your data

Six commitments we make to every SmartWalt user.

No bank account linking

SmartWalt is architecturally designed to work without bank access. We never request, store, or transmit your bank credentials. You track expenses by voice, receipt scan, or manual entry — your bank stays completely out of the picture.

  • Zero bank credentials ever requested
  • No read access to your accounts
  • No third-party financial data aggregators
  • Works entirely on data you choose to enter

AWS enterprise-grade encryption

All data is encrypted at rest using AES-256 and in transit using TLS 1.3, the same standards used by banks, healthcare providers, and government agencies. SmartWalt runs on AWS infrastructure, which holds the highest security certifications available.

  • AES-256 encryption at rest
  • TLS 1.3 encryption in transit
  • AWS SOC 2 certified infrastructure
  • Regular security audits

We never sell your data

SmartWalt is a software company. Our revenue comes from subscriptions, not from selling your financial data to advertisers, data brokers, or third parties. Your spending patterns, income data, and financial goals are never shared or monetized.

  • No data sold to advertisers
  • No data shared with third parties
  • No behavioral profiling for ads
  • Revenue from subscriptions only

Full data control

You own your data. Export everything in a standard format at any time. Delete your account and all associated data permanently with a single tap. We do not retain backup copies after deletion.

  • Export all data anytime
  • Permanent account deletion
  • No data retained after deletion
  • Standard export formats

Voice & receipt data discarded

When you use Voice Spend or Snap Receipt, the audio recording and receipt image are processed to extract the expense details, then immediately and permanently discarded. We never store raw audio or images.

  • Audio processed and discarded immediately
  • Receipt images not stored
  • Only extracted data (amount, vendor, date) is kept
  • No voice profile or biometric data stored

Transparent privacy practices

We believe you should know exactly how your data is handled. Our privacy policy is written in plain English, not legal jargon. We notify users of any material changes before they take effect.

  • Plain-English privacy policy
  • Advance notice of policy changes
  • No hidden data collection
  • Open to questions at support@smartwalt.com
