2. Information We Collect
Account Information
When you create an account, we collect your email address and a hashed password. We never store your password in plaintext.

We receive read-only access to your financial data. We cannot move money, make payments, or modify your accounts in any way.

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal or financial data with third parties for marketing purposes.
