Privacy Policy — Family Pocket

Family Pocket is a pocket-money and budget tracking notebook for teenagers, young adults and their families. It is a notebook only: no real money moves between family members, and the app is not linked to any bank account.

Who is responsible for processing

Family Pocket is published by Atria.Eponym, an individual developer based in France. Contact: atria.eponym@gmail.com

Standalone use (without a family)

The transactions you record (amount, category, note, date), your categories, your savings goals and your settings (optional first name, currency) are stored only on your phone. No account is created and nothing is sent to the publisher.

Backups

• Automatic phone backup. Android can copy the app's data to your own Google account (and iPhone to your own iCloud). This backup is managed by your phone; on Android 9 and later it is encrypted with your screen lock code. The publisher has no access to it. You can turn it off in your phone's settings.
• Backup file. You can create a file containing your whole notebook, optionally protected by a password (AES-256 encryption). You choose where to store it; the publisher does not receive it.

Import and export

The bank statements you import (CSV, OFX, QIF) and the Markdown file from another app are read on your phone; only the lines you confirm are added to your notebook. The files you export (Excel, CSV, PDF, images) are created on your phone and shared only where you decide. Images intended for social networks hide amounts by default.

Family mode

Family mode is optional. It lets a parent follow their children's pocket money, set up pocket money, and lets the family contribute to goals. When you use it, the following data is stored on the app's synchronization service, hosted by Supabase in the European Union:

• The family: its name, and for each member their first name (or nickname), their role (parent, teen, relative) and the date from which a teen shares their history.
• The parent's account: the parent signs in with their Google account; the service receives the identifier and e-mail address of that account. No password is stored.
• A teen's or relative's account: an anonymous identifier, with no e-mail or password, created when they join the family with a parent's invitation.
• The notebook of teens and relatives: transactions, categories, goals and contributions to goals, so that the family can view them.
• Pocket money: the mode chosen by the parent (disabled, regular or one-off), the amount, the frequency and the date of the next payment.

Who sees what. Only the members of your family have access to this data, through security rules enforced by the server. A parent sees a teen's transactions dated from the day the teen chose when joining the family (and which they can change). A relative sees the children's goals and can contribute to them.

Minors. A teen can only join a family with a parent's invitation, which constitutes parental consent.

Third-party services

• Supabase: hosting of the family mode synchronization service (processor, European Union).
• Google: the parent's sign-in with their Google account, reading of the invitation QR code by the phone's Google Play services, Android automatic backup, distribution of the app through Google Play. The app's crash reports come only from Google Play, and only if you have agreed to share diagnostic data with Google in your phone's settings.

The app contains no advertising or audience-measurement tools.

Donations

Donations are optional and unlock no features. Payment is handled entirely by Google Play (Android) or the App Store (iPhone), under their own privacy rules. We do not receive your name, your e-mail address or your payment details, and no data from your notebook is sent.

Retention period

The data on your phone stays there until you delete it or uninstall the app. Family mode data is kept as long as the account exists and deleted as soon as the account is deleted.

Deleting your account and your data

In the app: Settings → Family → Delete my family account. Your account and everything it stored on the service are deleted immediately; if you were the last parent, the whole family is deleted too. Without the app, see the page Delete an account.

Your rights

Under the GDPR, you can access your data, correct it, delete it, receive a copy of it (export from the app) or object to its processing, by writing to atria.eponym@gmail.com. You can also lodge a complaint with the CNIL (www.cnil.fr).

Changes

Any change to this policy will be published on this page, with its date.
