Privacy Notice

Last updated: September 19, 2026

FinEZ is operated by Markell Hardee, an individual.

Your planning entries stay in your browser. You control the files you export and the feedback you choose to share.

What this notice covers

This notice describes the FinEZ personal-finance prototype and the support or feedback you choose to send to its operator. FinEZ is a planning and educational tool. It does not provide bank connections, user sign-ins, a shared financial database, or automatic sharing of your financial information.

Information stored in your browser

FinEZ stores your current plan—income, expenses, savings plans, and the account names and balances you enter—in this browser’s local storage. Saved tests include copies of your current plan and your test inputs. FinEZ’s app code does not upload those entries to its operator or a shared database.

Changes to existing entries save after a short typing pause or when you finish editing a field. New items save when you select Add; compact-list edits save when you select Save changes. Check the saving message before closing the page. A crash, storage error, or abrupt browser shutdown can still lose recent work. You can reopen saved tests from History.

Storage belongs to this website address and browser profile. A different browser, device, or website address will not automatically have your entries. FinEZ does not add a password or encryption to this browser storage. Someone who can use your browser profile may be able to see your information. Avoid entering bank login details, full account numbers, Social Security numbers, or other identifiers the tool does not need.

Backups, reports, and deletion

Backups and PDF reports are created in your browser. Saving or sharing one creates a separate copy wherever you choose to keep or send it, including a cloud-synced Downloads folder. Backup files contain your current plan and saved-test history and are not password-protected. PDF reports are also not password-protected.

Use Download backup on Dashboard or History to keep a copy. Restore backup reads a file you select on your device; it does not upload the file to FinEZ. Restoring replaces your current plan and all saved tests after confirmation. For an older backup without saved tests, FinEZ explains that your current saved tests will be removed.

You can edit or remove individual entries in the app and delete saved tests from History. Start from $0 on How to Use replaces the plan and history with an empty workspace after confirmation. To remove all site storage, close FinEZ tabs and use your browser’s settings to clear this website’s site data. FinEZ opens empty afterward; fictional examples appear only when you choose to load them. Delete exported files and any shared or synced copies separately if you also want those removed.

Stored entries remain until you change or delete them, clear site data, or your browser removes them. Private browsing, browser cleanup, or storage limits can cause loss. FinEZ’s operator cannot view, restore, or remotely delete your browser-only entries. See backup and recovery guidance.

Website delivery and technical information

Serving a website requires requests to its hosting infrastructure. The hosting provider may receive technical information such as your IP address, browser details, requested pages, and request times, and may retain operational or security logs under its own policies. FinEZ’s app code does not include your planning entries in those requests.

The current FinEZ app does not add advertising cookies, third-party analytics, session recording, or tracking across other websites. It uses browser storage to save your planning entries. The app does not change this behavior based on Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control signals because it does not use the advertising or cross-site tracking described above. Hosting infrastructure may have its own technical processing.

Feedback and support you choose to share

If you email or otherwise send feedback, the operator receives what you send, which may include your name, email address, message, and attachments. That information leaves the browser-only app and is handled through the communication service you choose and the operator’s email or feedback tools.

Feedback is used to respond to you, investigate issues, and improve FinEZ. Please describe the issue using made-up amounts and remove personal details from screenshots. Do not send financial backups, bank credentials, or account numbers. Support messages are kept as needed to handle the request and understand recurring issues; you can request correction or deletion by email. Email and storage providers may retain their own copies under their policies. FinEZ does not sell your planning entries or support messages or share them for targeted advertising.

Updates and contact

This notice will be updated if FinEZ’s practices change, with a revised date on this page. Review it before using new features that handle information differently.

For privacy questions or requests about feedback you sent, email m23isme@gmail.com. There is no need to send your financial entries.
