Data Nudge processes

Why the data is used

Data is used only to provide app functionality: local bookkeeping, synchronization with people you connect to, invitations, the shared Inbox, scheduled reminders, support, security, and abuse prevention. Nudge does not sell data, show third-party advertising, or use data for cross-company tracking.

Local and synchronized data

Expenses stay on your iPhone until you connect with another person. Connected expenses and group events are stored on the Nudge server so both sides can synchronize. Other participants receive only data required for their connected balances and groups.

If you choose PayPal for a repayment, Nudge opens an HTTPS PayPal.Me link containing the recipient's public PayPal.Me username, amount, and currency. Nudge does not receive or store PayPal login credentials or PayPal transaction data.

Service providers

STRATO hosts the API and database. Apple processes App Store purchases and iOS push notifications. Google Firebase delivers Android push notifications. Ably carries minimal realtime wake-up messages; authoritative expense data remains on the Nudge server.

Retention and deletion

Connected data is retained while the anonymous Nudge profile exists. Settings → Account & data → Delete account permanently deletes the server profile, connections, synchronized expenses, groups, Nudges, scheduled reminders, device registrations, and local credentials. Operational server logs may be retained for a limited period for security and troubleshooting.

Your choices

You can use Nudge without notifications, hide amounts in the interface, choose generic notification previews, disconnect people, archive settled records, or delete the entire account. Requests concerning access, correction, deletion, or objection can be sent to the contact address above.

Children and international use

Nudge is not directed to children under the applicable digital-consent age. Data may be processed where the listed providers operate, subject to their contractual and legal safeguards.

Changes

Material changes will be reflected on this page with a new effective date.
