The Monetoir promise
Monetoir is operated as a sole proprietorship. The data controller under the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) is:
Monetoir processes personal data solely to provide the service: a personal financial overview. The legal basis is GDPR Article 6(1)(b) — performance of the contract that arises when you create an account and use the service. For the AI feature we process your question and a limited dataset to answer it. Same legal basis. No automated decision-making with legal effects takes place.
Monetoir collects only data needed to operate the app. We distinguish two categories:
Monetoir uses a number of external services. Data processing agreements are in place with all of these parties in compliance with GDPR.

Under the General Data Protection Regulation, you have a number of rights regarding your personal data:
Send an email to [email protected] to exercise any of these rights. We respond within 30 days, in compliance with GDPR.
Account data and app data are retained as long as you have an active account. Upon account deletion, all personal data is removed from our active systems within 30 days. Backups are permanently deleted within 90 days after account deletion. Anonymized, aggregated data (e.g. 'number of active users per month') may be retained longer for statistical purposes, but is no longer traceable to individuals.
Monetoir uses minimal, functional cookies. There are two types:
No tracking cookies, no advertising cookies, no analytics cookies. Consent for strictly necessary cookies is not legally required; we deliberately use no cookies that would require it.
In case of a data breach that poses a high risk to your rights and freedoms, we report it to the Dutch Data Protection Authority within 72 hours. You will be personally informed via your registered email address with information about what happened, which data is affected, and what measures we are taking.
Questions, complaints or requests about your data? Send an email.
Email: [email protected]
You always have the right to file a complaint with the Dutch Data Protection Authority via autoriteitpersoonsgegevens.nl.
For clarity — Monetoir does not do the following, and never will:
This privacy policy may be updated if legal requirements or our services change. Significant changes will be communicated via email to registered users at least 7 days before taking effect. The version date at the top of the page indicates when it was last updated.
