At Alvin, we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it. It’s important to us therefore that you understand how exactly we protect your privacy as well as what data we collect and for what purpose. Let’s dive in.

Overview

This policy describes the types of information Alvin Technologies, Ltd. (“Alvin”, “Company” or “We”) may collect from you or that you may provide when you visit and utilize the budgeting software available through our apps, software, and the website alvinapp.com (collectively, our “Website“). This includes our practices for collecting, using, maintaining, protecting, and disclosing that information and the basis for doing so.

This policy applies to information we collect on the Website, in e-mail, text and other electronic messages between you and this Website and, through mobile and desktop applications you download from this Website or other services (such as the Google Play Store), which provide dedicated non-browser-based interaction between you and this Website.

Alvin relies on a number of legal bases to collect, use, share, and otherwise process the information we have about you for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. Generally, this includes analytics, user database management, managing support and contact requests, transaction aggregation, hosting and backend infrastructure and infrastructure monitoring.

We process data:

For example, we cannot provide our services without an email address to sign into your account, conduct customer support, or send educational materials; we cannot provide the service without users providing financial information on which a budget is based;
where necessary to comply with a legal obligation, a court order, or to exercise and defend legal claims;
