Trust & Security

Privacy-first by design

Minimize access, minimize retention, and protect every transaction. We build compliance directly into our processing pipeline.

Encryption in Transit

All connections to our servers are protected using industry-standard TLS encryption, preventing data intercept as files move from your device to our parser.

Encryption at Rest

Uploaded PDFs and generated spreadsheets are stored using unique per-file AES-256 keys. Decryption happens purely in-memory during active parsing.

No AI Training

We strictly do not use customer documents to train our models. Paid API endpoints enforce training restrictions for all processed financial contents.

EU Infrastructure

Our core systems are hosted in Germany (EU). Standard operations align with GDPR, keeping data within strict, privacy-protected regional boundaries.

Data Retention

Automatic retention controls

We keep files only as long as your plan requires so you can re-download past results. You can manually delete any document instantly, permanently removing it from our storage.

Plan Retention Period Controls Available
Free Trial 7 days Manual delete anytime
Starter 3 months Manual delete + optional daily auto-delete
Professional 1 year Manual delete + optional daily auto-delete
Business 2 years Manual delete + optional daily auto-delete

* Deleted file contents are removed permanently. Limited, anonymized metadata (filenames, processing status, and transaction volumes) is retained for audit logging and usage quotas.

Secure Payment Gateway

Smart Bank Statement does not collect or store credit card details. All billing actions, subscriptions, and receipts are securely managed via **Paddle**, which complies with PCI-DSS standards.

Privacy-First Analytics

We use minimal tracking. We run **Cloudflare Web Analytics** (zero cookie tracking) and self-hosted **Umami** (first-party trends). We never deploy cross-site tracking or behavioral pixels.
