Privacy Policy
Last updated November 9, 2026
Solara Cash is a money app built so that your financial data stays yours. This policy explains what information the Solara Cash apps and website handle, why, and the choices you have. It applies to the Solara Cash apps for iPhone, iPad, Mac, Android, Windows, and Linux, to solaracash.com, and to Solara Cash Pro purchases.
"Solara Cash", "we", and "us" mean Solara Cash, Las Vegas, Nevada, United States. You can reach us at support@solaracash.com.
The short version
- Your accounts, transactions, bills, budgets, and receipts are kept in an encrypted vault file that you control. We never receive your vault or anything in it.
- There are no ads, no cross-app tracking, and no account to sign up for. We do not sell or share personal information.
- The app shares anonymous usage analytics: which screens and features are used, with the app version, language, currency, and country. Never your money, names, or anything you type, and nothing that identifies you. You can turn it off in Settings; in the EU, EEA, UK, and Switzerland it stays off unless you turn it on.
- A few other features talk to the internet, and only when you use them: Solara Cash Pro, built-in cloud drive connections, and sending feedback. Each is described below.
Your vault and financial data
Everything you enter into Solara Cash is stored in a vault: one .solara file encrypted with your passphrase. You choose where it is kept, such as on your device, in a folder your cloud drive's own app syncs, or in a cloud drive Solara Cash connects to for you.
- Importing bank files, attaching receipts, forecasts, budgets, reports, reconciliation, and bill reminders all happen on your device.
- Automatic backups are encrypted copies of your vault kept on the same device. They are not uploaded anywhere.
- Bill reminders are scheduled by your device's operating system and never include amounts.
- Home screen widgets (Solara Cash Pro) show figures from your vault outside the app. To do that, the app keeps a small summary for them on your device, outside the encrypted vault: upcoming bill names and dates, goal names and progress, spending categories, and the vault's name. Amounts are left out unless you turn on "Show amounts on widgets" in Settings. Anyone who can see your home or lock screen can see what the widgets show. The summary never leaves your device, and forgetting the vault on the device deletes it.
- When your vault is in a cloud drive (iCloud Drive, OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox, Box, Nextcloud, Proton Drive, or another provider), the drive provider stores the encrypted file under its own privacy policy. It cannot read the contents without your passphrase or recovery key.
We cannot see, recover, or reset your passphrase or recovery key, and we have no copy of your data.
Solara Cash Pro
Solara Cash Pro is an optional subscription or one-time Lifetime purchase. There is no account. Instead, each vault gets a random Pro ID (it begins with sc_ and contains no information about you). The Pro ID is stored in the vault and in your device's secure storage.
When you view plans, buy, restore, or check Pro:
- RevenueCat, our purchase provider, receives the Pro ID as its App User ID together with purchase information from the store, such as the product, price, currency, dates, and transaction identifiers. RevenueCat also receives technical information needed to provide its service, such as your device type, operating system, app version, IP address, and country. See RevenueCat's privacy policy.
- Apple (App Store) or Google (Google Play) handle in-app payments under their own terms and privacy policies. We never see your payment details.
- Web purchases use RevenueCat Web Billing, with payments processed by Stripe. You give your email address and payment details to them so they can charge you, send receipts, and let you manage the subscription. We receive purchase records and your email address from RevenueCat so we can provide support, but never your full card details. See Stripe's privacy policy.
- Our license server, run on Cloudflare, receives the Pro ID, asks RevenueCat whether it has an active purchase, and returns a short-lived signed Pro token that is saved in the vault. It does not store the Pro ID or keep a record of requests.
We use purchase information only to provide Pro, handle refunds and support, prevent fraud, and meet tax and legal obligations.
Built-in cloud drive connections
With Pro, Solara Cash can connect to OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox, Box, Nextcloud, or another WebDAV server, and to iCloud Drive on Apple devices.
- You sign in directly with the drive provider. Solara Cash asks only for the access it needs to read and save your vault file. For example, with Google Drive it can only see files it created or that you opened with it.
- Sign-in tokens, WebDAV passwords, and the account name or email shown in Settings are kept in your device's secure storage. They are not sent to us.
- For Box only, the sign-in step passes through our license server, because Box requires a server to complete it. The server forwards the request to Box and returns the result to your device without storing it.
- Each provider's own privacy policy applies to the files you keep with them.
Feedback
When you choose Send feedback in Settings and press Send, we receive:
- what you type: the feedback type, an optional star rating, your message, and an optional email address for a reply;
- unless you switch them off, app details you can read before sending: app version and build, platform and operating system version, screen class (phone, tablet, or desktop), language, Free or Pro, and release channel;
- an optional screenshot, which you see before sending.
Feedback is delivered to our team's chat workspace (Discord or Slack), and screenshots may be stored in our Cloudflare storage. Balances, account names, vault contents, and Pro IDs are never added automatically. We use feedback to answer you and improve Solara Cash, keep it only as long as it is useful for that, and delete it when you ask.
Usage analytics
Solara Cash shares anonymous usage analytics so we can see which features people use, find problems, and decide what to build next.
- Where it is on by default. In most countries, sharing is on when you start using the app, and a card on the Today screen says so once. You can turn it off from that card or with Share anonymous usage in Settings > Privacy & storage.
- Where it asks first. If your device's region is in the European Union, the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, or the app can't tell your region, nothing is shared until you choose Share on the card or turn it on in Settings.
- Turning it off stops sharing and deletes everything not yet sent. See what's shared in Settings shows every event waiting to be sent and the ones sent recently, exactly as they are sent.
While sharing is on, the app sends events as they happen, grouped into visits to the app (a visit ends after 30 minutes without use). Events are kept on your device while you are offline and sent when you are back online. They include:
- which screens you open and which features you use, such as adding a transaction from a widget, importing a file (its format and the app it came from, such as Mint or YNAB, never its name or contents), or opening the Pro plans;
- problems, such as a failed save or a crash (the kind of error and where in the app's code it happened, never the error message);
- timings, such as how long unlocking took;
- when the app is opened: how many of the last 7 and 28 days it was used, and roughly how many weeks ago it was first opened;
- with every event: app version and build, platform and major operating system version, screen class (phone, tablet, or desktop), your device's language and region setting (such as "es-MX"), the language the app is shown in, your vault's currency (such as "USD"), Free or Pro, and release channel.
Once a week it also sends how the app is set up, such as which cards Today shows, which widgets are placed, where the vault is kept (on the device or in a cloud drive, and which one), and whether bill reminders are on, and yes or no answers about the kinds of things your vault has, such as whether it has a credit card, a loan, a savings goal, or a budget. Never how many, and never any amounts.
Analytics never include amounts, balances, account, payee, category, goal, or vault names, notes, anything you type, file names, screenshots, your Pro ID, or any identifier for you or your device. Each visit gets a new random identifier that isn't used for anything else.
Events go directly to Aptabase, an analytics service run by Technov Solutions SRL in Romania, which stores them in the European Union (Germany) as our processor. Like any internet service, Aptabase receives your IP address with each request. It uses it only in memory to work out your country and region, and, together with the app's user agent (the same for everyone), to make a daily random identifier that lets it count visitors per day but can't be turned back into your IP address. It does not store your IP address. See Aptabase's privacy policy. Aptabase keeps analytics data for up to 5 years. Because it contains nothing that identifies you, we can't find or delete one person's data in it.
We use usage analytics only to understand how Solara Cash is used, find problems, and decide what to improve and where to focus, such as which languages and currencies to support.
Information our servers see
Our license and feedback server runs on Cloudflare. Like any internet service, Cloudflare processes your IP address and basic request information to deliver requests, protect against abuse, and limit how often requests can be made. Cloudflare may keep short-lived operational logs under its own privacy policy. We do not use this information to identify or track you.
The website solaracash.com is a static site hosted on Cloudflare Pages. It sets no cookies and runs no analytics.
What we do not do
- No advertising, advertising identifiers, or cross-app tracking.
- No usage analytics linked to you, and none at all once you turn them off.
- No selling, renting, or sharing of personal information for money or for advertising. This includes "sales" as defined by Nevada law (NRS 603A) and California law.
- No access to your bank accounts. Solara Cash only reads files you choose to import.
Children
Solara Cash is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, for example in feedback, contact us and we will delete it.
Your choices and rights
- You can use Solara Cash without Pro, without a cloud connection, without ever sending feedback, and with usage analytics turned off.
- You can export your data to CSV at any time, and delete your vault and its backups from your device or drive.
- Depending on where you live (for example in the EU, the UK, California, or Nevada), you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or receive a copy of personal information we hold, and to object to or restrict its use. Because we hold very little, most requests concern feedback or purchase records. Email support@solaracash.com and we will respond within the time the law requires. You may also complain to your local data protection authority.
- To manage or cancel a subscription, use the App Store, Google Play, or the link in your web purchase receipt.
Where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies, we rely on performing our contract with you (Pro and cloud connections), your consent (feedback, and usage analytics in the EU, EEA, UK, and Switzerland), and our legitimate interests in improving the app (anonymous usage analytics elsewhere) and in running and securing our service (server logs and rate limiting).
International transfers
We are based in the United States, and our providers may process information in the United States and other countries. Where required, transfers are protected by the providers' standard contractual clauses or similar safeguards.
Security
Your vault is encrypted on your device before it is saved anywhere. Connections to our server and to our providers use HTTPS. No method of storage or transmission is perfectly secure, so keep your passphrase and recovery key safe.
Changes to this policy
If we change this policy, we will update the date at the top and publish the new version in the app and at solaracash.com/privacy. If a change materially affects how we handle your information, we will tell you in the app before it takes effect.
