Privacy Policy
Wase · Last updated: 23 July 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Wase (“we”, “us”, “the app”), operated by Brandsquare Limited, collects, uses, and protects your information when you use the Wase personal finance application. By using Wase, you agree to the practices described below.
1. Information We Collect
We collect only the information needed to provide the app’s features:
- Account information — your name and email address, provided when you sign up (including via Google Sign-In).
- Financial information — the accounts, transactions, budgets, categories, and balances you choose to record. This is data you enter yourself to track your own money. We do not collect bank credentials or card numbers, and we do not connect to your bank.
- Photos — images you optionally attach as transaction receipts or as your profile picture. We only access photos you explicitly select.
- Authentication data— biometric unlock (fingerprint / Face) is handled entirely by your device’s operating system. We never receive, store, or transmit your biometric data.
- Support & AI assistant messages — when you choose to use the in-app AI support chat or the AI finance assistant, we process the messages you type so we can generate a response. These features are optional; if you do not use them, no message content is sent for AI processing.
2. How We Use Your Information
- To create and manage your account.
- To provide the app's core features — recording transactions, budgets, reports, and receipts.
- To sync your data securely across your sessions and devices.
- To secure your account and protect your financial data.
- To power optional AI features — the in-app support chat and finance assistant — which generate answers based on the messages you send them.
We do not use your data for advertising, and we do not sell your personal information.
3. How Your Data Is Stored and Protected
Your data is stored securely using our infrastructure provider, Supabase, which acts as our data processor. All data is encrypted in transit using industry-standard TLS/HTTPS. Access is restricted to your authenticated account.
4. Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal or financial information, and we do not share it with third parties for their own independent purposes. We only use trusted service providers that process data on our behalf, under contract, and are bound to protect it with safeguards at least equal to those described in this policy. We may disclose information if required by law.
Our service providers are:
- Supabase — hosting and secure storage of your account and financial data.
- Google (Gemini AI)— when you use an optional AI feature, we send the content of the messages you type to Google’s Gemini API so it can generate a response, as described in the section below.
5. AI Features and Data Sent to Google
Wase offers optional AI features — an in-app support assistant and a finance assistant. These features are powered by Google’s Gemini API, a third-party AI service operated by Google.
- What is sent — only the text of the messages you type into an AI feature, together with the recent messages in that same conversation so the assistant can keep context. We do not send your name, email, account balances, transactions, or other financial records to Google.
- Who it is sent to— Google LLC, which processes the message on our behalf to generate a reply and returns it to the app. Google’s handling of API data is governed by its own terms; we do not authorize Google to use your messages to serve you advertising.
- Your consent — these features are entirely optional and are only used when you actively choose to send a message to an AI assistant. If you do not use them, nothing is sent to Google.
- Retention — conversation context is held temporarily to maintain the session and is automatically cleared within 24 hours.
Please avoid typing sensitive personal or financial details into an AI assistant, as the message content is processed by Google to generate your response.
6. Data Retention and Deletion
We retain your data for as long as your account is active. You can delete your account and all associated data at any time from within the app: Settings → Delete Account. You may also email us at product@bsq.agency to request deletion.
See our Delete Account & Data page for full details.
7. Permissions We Request
- Photos — to attach receipts and set a profile picture.
- Camera — to photograph a receipt.
- Biometrics — to unlock and protect the app.
- Notifications — to send reminders and alerts you enable.
You can revoke any of these permissions in your device settings.
8. Children's Privacy
Wase is intended for users aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect information from children.
9. Your Rights
You have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data — directly in the app, or by contacting us.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the “Last updated” date above.
