Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Global Bound LLC ("Global Bound," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and protects your information when you use the Global Bound app and website at globalbound.app (the "Service"). By using the Service, you agree to this policy.

Our promise: we never sell your data

We do not sell your personal information, and we never have. We also do not share your data with third parties for their own advertising or marketing, we do not show ads, and we do not track you across other apps or websites.

The only time your information is shared at all is with the trusted service providers that make Global Bound work, such as our secure host and our payment processor, and only the minimum needed to operate the Service for you. They are not permitted to use your data for their own purposes. You can see exactly who these providers are in Section 4 below.

1. Information we collect

Information you provide

• Account information: your email address and a password, which you create to sign in and sync your data across devices.
• Budget data: the financial information you choose to enter — income, expenses, budgets, categories, savings goals, trips, places, and currency preferences. This is the content of your account.

Information collected automatically

• Basic technical data needed to operate and secure the Service, such as your general device/browser type and information your browser sends when it loads the app.
• Local storage on your device to remember preferences (for example, "demo mode" data and whether you dismissed the install prompt). This stays on your device.

We do not collect your precise location, and we do not use third-party advertising or cross-site tracking.

2. How we use your information

• To provide the Service — store and sync your budget, calculate totals, and convert currencies.
• To create and secure your account and let you sign in.
• To process and manage your subscription (through our payment provider).
• To respond to your support requests.
• To maintain, protect, and improve the Service.

3. How your information is stored

Your account and budget data are stored securely in the cloud using Supabase, our hosting and database provider, and are transmitted over an encrypted (HTTPS) connection. Access to your data is protected so that you can view only your own information.

4. Third-party services we rely on

We share the minimum information necessary with trusted providers that help us run the Service. We do not sell your data to anyone.

• Supabase — secure hosting, authentication, and database storage of your account and budget data.
• Lemon Squeezy — our payment provider and Merchant of Record. When you subscribe, Lemon Squeezy processes your payment and handles billing. We never see or store your full card details; those are handled directly by Lemon Squeezy.
• Exchange-rate provider — we fetch approximate currency exchange rates from a third-party rates service. These requests do not include your personal or financial data.
• Emoji images — category and interface icons may be loaded from a public content-delivery network.

Each provider processes data under its own privacy terms.

5. Payments

Subscriptions are billed through Lemon Squeezy. Your payment card information is entered into and handled by Lemon Squeezy, not by Global Bound. We receive confirmation of your subscription status (for example, active, trialing, or cancelled) so we can provide the right level of access.

6. Your choices and rights

• Access & export: you can export all of your data at any time from Settings → Your data (CSV or full backup).
• Deletion: you can delete your account and its data from within the app (Settings → Account → Delete my account & data). Deleting your data is permanent.
• Correction: you can edit or remove your entries at any time inside the app.
• Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights (such as under the GDPR or CCPA), including the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your personal data. To make a request, contact us using the details below.

7. Data retention

We keep your account and budget data for as long as your account exists so the Service works across your devices. If your subscription lapses, we retain your data so you can resume where you left off if you resubscribe. When you delete your account, your budget data is removed from our active systems.

8. Children's privacy

Global Bound is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us and we will delete it.

9. International users

Global Bound is available to users around the world. Your information may be processed and stored on servers located in countries other than your own. By using the Service, you understand that your information may be transferred to and processed in those locations, with appropriate safeguards.

10. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures — including encrypted connections and access controls — to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security. We encourage you to use a strong, unique password and to keep your login details private.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the "Effective" date above and, where appropriate, notify you in the app. Your continued use of the Service after an update means you accept the revised policy.
