Security & Privacy

Your data is yours.
We just help you understand it.

Financial data is among the most sensitive information that exists. Stackr treats it that way — read-only, encrypted, auditable, and never sold.

Read-only

We can see your data. We cannot touch your money.

Encrypted

AES-256 at rest. TLS 1.3 in transit. Always.

Never sold

No ads. No data brokers. No exceptions.

Controls

Security controls, in depth.

End-to-end encryption

All data encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Bank credentials never touch our servers.

Powered by Plaid

Bank connections use Plaid — the same infrastructure trusted by Venmo, Cash App, Robinhood, and thousands of fintech companies.

Read-only access

Stackr can see balances and transactions. It cannot move, transfer, or modify your money. Ever.

Row-level access control

Every database query is scoped to your household ID. No user can ever see another user's data.

Token vaulting

OAuth tokens from Plaid and other providers are encrypted with a separate key before storage.

Audit logs

Every sensitive action — login, account linking, admin access — is logged with timestamps and IP addresses.

Data deletion

Delete your account and every trace is permanently removed within 30 days. No backups retained.

No data selling

Stackr is a subscription product. No ads, no data brokering, no incentive to sell your information.

Bank connections

How account linking works.

When you connect a bank account, you authenticate directly with your bank through Plaid's secure interface. Your login credentials are never sent to Stackr — Plaid handles the authentication and returns a read-only token.

Plaid is used by Venmo, Cash App, Robinhood, and thousands of other financial applications. They're regulated and audited to the highest standards.

Your bank password never touches Stackr's servers.
