Privacy statement

Last updated: 23 September 2026. Controller: Buddy's Digital Factory, reachable at hallo@buddyprintables.nl. Legal basis: performance of the service you request yourself (an account) and, for abuse protection, legitimate interest.

What stays on your own device

Your API keys for investment platforms are stored only on your own computer or phone. They are never sent to this server, not even if you have an account.

For prices, annual figures and fund contents the app asks this server for data on the securities and coins you hold: only the tickers, without quantities, amounts or names. The server fetches that data from public sources and doesn't remember who asked what.

What the server stores if you create an account

For what and for how long

Solely to let you sign in and to restore your settings and history on a second device. Data is kept until you delete your account; you can do that in the app under Account, and then everything on the server is gone immediately.

Questions in the app (support chat)

If you ask a question in the app, the server keeps that conversation: your messages, the answers and an identifier of your device that the app makes up itself; your email address only if you are signed in. To give you an answer right away, your question goes to Claude by Anthropic (United States), which answers it using the app's help texts and translates messages in another language. Anthropic does not use that data to train its models and keeps it only briefly, for abuse monitoring. If you choose to send your question to the maker, it goes to him via Telegram. Do not put passwords or API keys in it.

Automatic connection via SnapTrade

If you choose automatic connection for a broker without its own connection (such as DEGIRO, eToro or BUX), you sign in on the screen of SnapTrade (Passiv Inc., Canada). Your login details for that broker go to SnapTrade, not to this app and not to the server. SnapTrade uses them only to read your accounts, positions and balances; the connection is requested as 'read only'. The server keeps only a SnapTrade connection number with your account; your positions pass through the server to the app and are not stored there. If you delete your account, your user at SnapTrade is deleted too; you can also disconnect separately in the app.

Who else is involved

The server runs at Contabo (Germany, within the EU). Emails for resetting your password are sent via Brevo (France, EU); Brevo sees your email address for that purpose. If you choose to sign in with Google, Google processes that sign-in under its own privacy policy; we only receive your email address and a user ID. Prices, annual figures and fund contents come from public sources (Yahoo Finance, CoinGecko, TradingView and the fund issuers themselves); no personal data goes to them. We don't sell or share data, use no cookies and show no ads.

Your rights

You can access, correct, take away or delete your data. You delete it yourself in the app under Account; you retrieve the encrypted settings block with the app itself (that's taking it away). For everything else, email hallo@buddyprintables.nl; we respond within a month. You can also lodge a complaint with the Dutch Data Protection Authority (Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens).
