I collect no data. Not even the harmless kind.
That is a property of the app rather than a promise: it knows no server it could send anything to. Below is the same thing again, in the language authorities and stores ask for.
No account
You sign in nowhere. There is no user ID, because there is nobody to issue one.
No analytics
Neither app nor website measures what you do. Not anonymously either, and not for improvement.
No bank connection
The app never has your credentials and never talks to your bank. You export, it reads.
The AI stays here
Where categorisation uses Apple Intelligence, it runs on your Mac. None of it goes to a service.
Privacy policy
As of 2026. Covers the Parendi app and this website.
In short
Parendi collects no data. Neither the app nor this website sends anything to me or to third parties. There is no account, no sign-in, no analytics tooling, no cookies and no advertising.
The app
Everything you import or enter (transactions, categories, accounts, assets, settings) lives in a database file on your Mac. It leaves your machine only when you make it: through the backup to a location you choose, or through the clipboard.
Where categorisation uses Apple Intelligence, it runs on the device, which means on your Mac. I receive nothing from it.
The app knows no server, so it doesn't check for updates itself and reports no crashes. What Apple learns through the Mac App Store (purchase, installation, system diagnostics if you allowed them in macOS) is covered by Apple's privacy policy.
When an import fails
If an import fails on a file, the message offers to send that file to me. This is the only way data of yours can reach me, and it works like this:
- The app opens a new message in your mail program with the file attached. You send it, not the app. You can read it, trim it or throw it away first.
- You choose between a masked copy and the original. In the copy, account and card numbers are replaced with X, amounts are altered, free text is cut to three characters and at most 20 rows remain; the structure of the file stays, because that is usually where the fault sits. The original contains your statement unchanged, with names, account numbers, balances and counterparties. The message in the app tells you this before you send.
- I use a submitted file only to fix the import for that format, and delete it afterwards. I don't pass it on.
This website
It consists of static pages. A few small scripts close menus, open a linked question, show on the features page which chapter you are reading and let text, images and the price appear once as they come into view; they run in your browser and send nothing anywhere. When you open the home page, the server sends you to the matching language based on your browser’s language setting; it decides this fresh on every visit and remembers nothing. It sets no cookies, loads nothing from third parties and measures no visits. The provider serving the pages sees the technical connection data any web server sees (IP address, time, requested page); I don't evaluate it.
Your rights
Since I hold no data about you, there is nothing here to correct or delete. If you have sent me a file and want it deleted right away, write to support@parendi.app and I will confirm the deletion.
Not financial advice
All figures in Parendi, the FIRE calculation in particular, are projections from your own data and assumptions. They are neither financial advice nor a promise. Check large decisions with a professional.
