Security and privacy, in plain language
We ask for access to sensitive financial data. Here is exactly what we do with it, what we never do, and why you can trust us with it.
Why trust a new company with this?
Fair question, and here's the honest version: we make money from our product, never from your data. Our whole model depends on your trust, not on selling your data. No legacy ad business, no data-broker deals, and no plans to build them. The bigger we get, the more that trust is worth protecting, never less.
No baggage to fall back on
No ad network, no data brokers, no incentive to exploit your information. And no plans to add them.
Our model depends on it
We earn by being useful, not by selling data. Lose your trust and we have no business, at any size.
More control, not less
Read-only access, one-click disconnect, and full deletion: likely more than your current apps offer.
How your data flows
From the moment you connect to the moment it reaches your dashboard, here is the whole path.
Connect Gmail
Google verifies Finest first. Your password never reaches us.
Find statements
Only statements from banks, brokers, and funds. Everything else is ignored.
Read the numbers
We extract balances and holdings from the statements we find.
Your dashboard
A clear picture of your wealth, private and secure.
We fetch statements, not conversations
When you connect Gmail, the access is deliberately narrow. Here is the line we draw.
What Finest does
- Looks only for financial statements from known senders
- Reads the numbers inside to build your dashboard
- Keeps everything up to date automatically
What Finest can't do
- Send, reply to, or delete any email
- Change anything in your mailbox
- See your contacts or other Google data
Verified by Google before we could connect
Before any app can connect to Gmail this way, Google requires it to pass an independent security assessment and a formal verification review. Finest has completed both. It is the same bar Google holds every app requesting this kind of access to.
You're the customer, not the product.
Most finance apps are free because you are the product: your data gets sold or mined for ads. Finest will never do that. We make money from our product, never by selling, renting, or exploiting your information.
No ads, ever
We don't run ads or sell your attention to advertisers.
No data brokers
We never sell or rent your data, and we don't share it with advertisers or data brokers.
Aligned with you
Our revenue never depends on exploiting your data, so our incentives stay yours.
What we commit to
Concrete safeguards we stand behind today, not promises for some future release.
Stored in India
Your data is stored in Microsoft Azure's Central India region. Some AI processing may run in other Microsoft regions.
Encrypted in transit and at rest
Your data is protected on the wire and in storage. Sensitive access details are encrypted or masked where supported.
Least-privilege access
Internal access to your data is limited to what a task strictly requires, and no more.
Revocable in one click
Disconnect Gmail, revoke sessions, or delete your workspace whenever you want, from Settings.
Deletion means deletion
Ask us to delete your data and we remove it, except where the law requires us to keep a record or where copies take a short time to clear from our backups.
Questions, answered plainly
Questions about your data?
Built to align with India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023. You can connect and disconnect data sources, delete your account and data, and reach our grievance officer anytime.
