Navledgr is a private personal-finance application run by an individual, not
a company. It has no customers, sells nothing, and exists to serve its
author and a small number of invited people.
What Navledgr collects
Only what the application needs to do its job:
- Account and transaction data from financial institutions you
explicitly connect — balances, transactions, and, where you connect a
loan or card, its balance and terms.
- Your email address and name, given at registration.
- Data you enter yourself, such as bills, their due dates and
amounts, debts, and goals.
- Session records — the devices signed in to your account, so you
can see and revoke them.
What Navledgr never sees
Your banking credentials. Connections are established through
Plaid, which
presents your bank's own sign-in. Your username and password go to Plaid and
your bank, never to Navledgr. Navledgr receives only an access token.
How it is stored
- Data is held in a private PostgreSQL database that is not publicly
reachable.
- Plaid access tokens are encrypted at rest using Fernet symmetric
encryption, with the key held outside the database.
- Passwords are stored only as salted hashes and cannot be recovered, only
reset.
- Accounts can be protected with time-based two-factor authentication and
single-use recovery codes.
Who it is shared with
Nobody. Your financial data is not sold, rented, shared, published or
used to train anything. There is no advertising, no analytics vendor and no
data broker in the path.
Navledgr relies on exactly two third parties, both as processors:
- Plaid — establishes the bank connection and supplies account and
transaction data. Governed by
Plaid's
end-user privacy policy.
- Resend — delivers transactional email such as password resets and
the reports you have switched on. It receives your email address and the
contents of those messages.
Data may also be disclosed where the law requires it. Given the nature of
this application, that is not anticipated.
Automated decisions
Navledgr produces forecasts and written summaries about your spending. These
are generated for you and shown only to you. They are guidance, not advice,
and nothing in Navledgr takes a financial action on your behalf — it cannot
move money, open accounts or make payments.
How long it is kept
As long as your account exists. Disconnecting an institution removes its
access token, ending further data collection. Deleting your account removes
your records, including connected institutions, transactions, bills and
sessions.
Your choices
- Disconnect an institution at any time from the Accounts page, and
from your bank's own app, which can revoke Plaid's access independently.
- See and revoke sessions from the Security page.
- Delete your account from the Security page. This cannot be
undone.
- Ask for a copy of your data, or for it to be erased, by email.
