Privacy Policy
Last Updated: 1/21/2026
1. Introduction
Welcome to GigFinance ("we," "our"). Your privacy is paramount. This policy explains how we collect, use, and shield your personal and financial data. We believe in Data Minimization: we only collect what is strictly necessary to empower you with financial tools.
2. Information We Collect
At a Glance: We collect your profile basics and the financial data you voluntarily provide to use specific features.
- Identity Data: Name, email, phone number, and tax identification (PAN/GSTIN) when relevant.
- Financial Data: Income, expenses, bank statements, and transaction history provided for analysis.
- Usage Data: Information on how you interact with our app (logs, device type) to improve key features.
3. Use of Information
We use your data strictly to:
- Provide and maintain the GigFinance service.
- Generate personalized financial insights and tax reports.
- Detect and prevent fraud.
- Comply with legal obligations (e.g., tax filing records).
4. AI & Data Processing
Transparency: We use Google Gemini models.
We utilize advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI) models, specifically Google Gemini, to power features like the Financial Advisor and Transaction Analyzer.
How it works:
- We send specific, anonymized text excerpts (e.g., "expense description") to the AI model.
- The model returns a categorization or recommendation.
- We do NOT use your data to train public AI models. Your personal data usage is isolated to your specific session.
5. Sharing & Disclosure
We do not sell your personal data. We share data only with:
- Trusted Service Providers: Like Google Cloud (for hosting/database) who are bound by strict confidentiality.
- Legal Authorities: Only if required by law (e.g., a court order).
6. Your Rights
You have full control over your data:
- Access: View your profile and data summaries in the dashboard.
- Correction: Update inaccurate information anytime.
- Deletion: You may request full account deletion by contacting support. We will scrub your personal data from active systems (retaining only what is legally mandated for tax records).
