DecentWealth is built on a foundation of privacy. We believe your financial data should stay yours. This privacy policy explains how we handle your information when you use our app and website.
Through this website, we may collect only:
That's it for personal information. We don't collect names, phone numbers, or other personal identifiers through this website. The app itself collects no personal information at all. For details on website website analytics data, see the Website Analytics section below.
This website (not the app) uses privacy-friendly analytics to understand how visitors find and use our site.
Plausible Analytics: We use Plausible Analytics, operated by Plausible Insights OÜ (Estonia, EU). Plausible does not use cookies, does not collect personal data, and does not track visitors across sites or devices. No IP addresses are stored. All data is aggregated and anonymous. No consent is required under GDPR or the ePrivacy Directive.
Data collected includes: page URL, referrer, browser, OS, device type, and country. All data is stored on servers in the EU (Germany). For more information, see Plausible's Privacy Policy.
Vercel Analytics: We also use Vercel Analytics for basic performance metrics (no cookies, no personal data, aggregated and anonymous).
Important: These analytics apply only to this website. The DecentWealth app contains no analytics, tracking, or advertising SDKs whatsoever.
If you subscribe to updates via the form on our website, your email address is used solely for:
Email subscriptions are managed entirely through Beehiiv, a third-party email service provider. Your email address is stored on Beehiiv's servers, not on ours. We do not maintain a separate email database. You can unsubscribe at any time via the link in any email.
DecentWealth does not collect or store your personal data on our servers. All portfolio data is stored locally on your device and optionally synced via your personal iCloud account.
The DecentWealth iOS app follows strict privacy standards:
DecentWealth requests camera access only for QR code scanning to quickly import wallet addresses. Camera usage is entirely optional and occurs only when you initiate a scan. No images or video are stored, transmitted, or processed beyond reading the QR code data. You can deny camera access and manually enter wallet addresses instead.
To display your portfolio balances and prices, the app sends limited data to third-party APIs. No personal information is transmitted. Only the data necessary to fetch balances:
Wallet addresses are public blockchain data and do not identify you personally. All API requests use HTTPS encryption. These services have their own privacy policies:
DecentWealth offers optional premium subscriptions through Apple's App Store. All payment processing is handled entirely by Apple. We never see or store your payment information. Apple's privacy practices for in-app purchases are covered under their Privacy Policy.
DecentWealth offers an optional app lock using Face ID, Touch ID, or your device passcode. Your biometric data is never accessed or stored by the app. Authentication is handled entirely by iOS using Apple's secure LocalAuthentication framework. We only receive a success/failure result from the system.
DecentWealth may request permission to send push notifications in future updates. If enabled, notifications would be used only for app-related alerts (such as dividend reminders). No notification data is collected or transmitted to our servers. You can manage notification permissions in iOS Settings → DecentWealth → Notifications at any time.
You have the right to:
To exercise any of these rights, email us at hey@decentwealth.app. We respond to all requests within 48 hours (or 30 days maximum for GDPR/CCPA requests).
Premium users can export transaction data to CSV or PDF format. When you export data:
You have complete control over your data:
Once deleted, your data cannot be recovered as we do not store backups on our servers.
We retain data only as long as necessary:
DecentWealth is intended for users aged 17 and older and is not directed at children under 17. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. The app is rated 17+ on the App Store due to its financial content. If you believe a child has provided us with their email address, please contact us at hey@decentwealth.app and we will promptly delete it.
DecentWealth operates under European Union law. We comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for EU users and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA) for California residents.
For GDPR: Our legal basis for processing is: consent (Article 6(1)(a)) for email collection. Website analytics (Plausible, Vercel Analytics) do not process personal data and therefore fall outside the scope of GDPR's consent requirements. No cookies are used for analytics purposes.
For CCPA/CPRA: We do not sell or share your personal information as defined under California law. We honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals. California residents have the right to know, delete, and opt-out.
Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information: We do not sell your data. Subscriber emails are never sold to or shared with third parties for marketing purposes. Our analytics tools collect no personal identifiers.
We implement security measures to protect your data:
DecentWealth is operated from the European Union. When you use third-party APIs (for price data, etc.), your wallet addresses or stock symbols may be processed by servers in other countries. This data is public information (blockchain addresses, stock tickers) and does not include personal identifiers. If you use iCloud sync, your data is processed according to Apple's data practices and may be stored in data centers outside your country.
Plausible Analytics data is stored exclusively on servers in Germany (EU) and is not transferred outside the EU. Vercel Analytics data is processed by Vercel Inc. (US) under standard contractual clauses.
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. For significant changes, we may notify users via email or in-app notification.

Privacy isn't just a feature for us. It's our entire philosophy.
