Data we collect

We collect information you provide directly, such as account details, contact information, goals, rules you set for automated deposits, and feedback sent to support. We also collect limited usage data, like device type, pages viewed, time on page, and interactions with features. Payment information is handled by our payment partners and is not stored on our servers. If you connect third party accounts to import transactions or balances, we receive access tokens and necessary metadata from regulated providers to deliver the feature.

We use essential cookies to keep you signed in and to provide core site functions. With your consent, we use analytics cookies to measure performance and improve features. You can accept or reject optional cookies in the cookie panel on our site or adjust your browser settings to block or delete cookies.

How we share information

We share personal data with trusted service providers to operate our product, such as hosting, email delivery, customer support, analytics, and payment processing. These providers are bound by contracts that require appropriate safeguards and prohibit use of your data for their own purposes. If you connect third party accounts, we share the minimum necessary data to deliver that integration. We may disclose information if required by law, to protect our legal rights, or in connection with a corporate transaction. We do not sell personal data.

International transfers

Your information may be processed outside the UK. When we transfer personal data internationally, we use lawful mechanisms such as adequacy regulations, the UK Addendum to Standard Contractual Clauses, and additional safeguards where appropriate. We assess vendor practices and monitor changes in law to help ensure continued protection.

Data retention

We keep personal data only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy, to meet legal obligations, and to resolve disputes. Account content is retained while your account is active. If you delete your account, we delete or anonymize personal data within a reasonable period, subject to backups and legal requirements. Support tickets and transactional records may be kept for a longer period where required by law.

Your rights

Under UK data protection law, you have rights that include access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, and objection. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. To exercise a right, contact us using the details below and we will respond within one month or explain if more time is needed. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office. We encourage you to contact us first so we can address your concerns quickly.

Security

We use technical and organizational measures to protect personal data, including encryption in transit and at rest, role based access, logging, and regular reviews. No system is perfectly secure, but we work to prevent unauthorised access and reduce risk through layered controls, staff training, and vendor diligence. If we become aware of a data incident that affects you, we will investigate and notify you and relevant authorities as required by law.

Children

StackFunds is intended for individuals who are at least 18 years old. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, contact us and we will take appropriate steps to remove the information.
