Your data and privacy in Cost Me

A money app sees private stuff: what you buy, what you skip, what tempts you. It is fair to ask what happens to all that. Here is a plain-words look at how Cost Me handles your data, and what control you have.

What Cost Me knows about you

Cost Me holds the prices you type, the buys you log or resist, and the totals built from them. That is the raw material it needs to show your savings, your streak, and your patterns. Without it, the app could not do its job.

What it does not do

• It does not sell your spending. Your buys are not a product to be auctioned off.
• It does not fill the app with ads. The paid tier, not your data, keeps the lights on. See what each tier unlocks.
• It keeps personal details out of analytics. Things like item names and emails are not bundled into usage stats.

Your data stays yours

You can take a copy whenever you like. Cost Me hands you your history so you can back it up or crunch it yourself, and you can bring your past in too — see importing a bank statement. Owning your own data is the whole point.

Removing your data

If you ever want to walk away, you can. Deleting your account removes your data from the backend. Nothing holds you hostage — you are free to leave with a copy in hand.

Why this design matters

An app built to help you spend less should not quietly profit from making you spend more. Keeping the data model simple and on your side is what lets Cost Me give you honest numbers — like the 30-year value of any price — without a hidden agenda.

The takeaway

Cost Me keeps only what it needs to do its job, keeps your private details out of analytics, and lets you export or delete your data any time. Your money story stays yours.
