Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 2026

Bridge Bank is a self-hosted application. Your bank transactions and credentials never leave your machine — they are never sent to or stored on our servers. This policy explains the limited data we do handle.

Who we are

Bridge Bank is an independent software product developed and maintained by David Alves, Portugal. You can reach us at support@david-alves.com.

What data we collect

We collect only the minimum necessary to operate the licence system:

We do not collect, store, or have access to your bank account data, transaction history, Actual Budget content, Enable Banking credentials, SMTP passwords, or any financial information. All of this stays on your machine.

What we do not collect

Third-party services

Lemon Squeezy — processes payments and manages licence keys. When you purchase Bridge Bank, Lemon Squeezy collects your name, email, and payment information. Their privacy policy is available at lemonsqueezy.com/privacy.

Enable Banking — provides open banking API access to your bank on your behalf. Their privacy policy governs how they handle your banking authorisation. Bridge Bank stores the resulting session tokens locally on your machine only.

Actual Budget — Bridge Bank writes transaction data to your self-hosted Actual Budget instance. You control that data entirely.

How we use your data

We do not sell, rent, or share your email address with third parties for marketing purposes.
