Policy identity
Cofra Documentation operates Cofra and is responsible for this policy. Privacy questions can be sent to privacy@cofra.site.
What this policy covers
This policy covers the Cofra app for iPhone and iPad, the Cofra widget, this documentation website, and information you choose to send when requesting support.
Information Cofra handles
Cofra handles the information you enter to provide its expense-management features:
- Expense amounts in VND, spending dates and times, optional notes, and category assignments.
- Category names or overrides, symbols, ordering, archive state, and related timestamps.
- App-generated identifiers and timestamps needed to maintain records and synchronize changes.
- Your appearance preference, stored locally on the device.
- A replaceable widget snapshot containing aggregate totals, counts, dates, calendar and time-zone identifiers, and seven daily totals. The widget snapshot does not contain individual notes or category names.
Cofra does not require a Cofra account. The audited release does not include advertising, tracking, payment processing, social sharing, or third-party analytics and crash-reporting SDKs.
Local storage and private iCloud synchronization
Cofra stores expenses and categories on your device using SwiftData. When iCloud is available for Cofra, those records synchronize through your private iCloud/CloudKit database so they can remain consistent across devices signed in to the same Apple Account.
Apple states that only the user can access a private CloudKit database by default, that the user owns its content, and that private records are not visible in the developer portal. Private synchronization still transfers data off your device to Apple's iCloud service. Review Apple's CloudKit private database documentation and Apple Account and iCloud privacy information for details about Apple's processing.
The widget snapshot is stored in Cofra's local App Group so the widget can display recent aggregates. It is a presentation cache, not a second authoritative financial database, and Cofra replaces it as expense data changes.
How Cofra uses information
Cofra uses app data only to provide the features you request, including expense entry and editing, category management, summaries and filtering, private iCloud synchronization, and widget presentation.
Cofra does not sell expense information or use it for advertising or cross-app tracking. Apple processes synchronized information as the provider of iCloud and CloudKit under Apple's own terms and privacy policy.
Documentation website and Vercel
This website is hosted on Vercel. Vercel may process operational request information such as IP address, approximate location derived from IP address, browser or device information, requested URL, timestamps, and diagnostic or security logs. Vercel describes this processing in its Privacy Notice.
The current Cofra Docs source does not load analytics scripts, advertising technology, or third-party trackers. It does not set application cookies or use browser local storage. Operational logs are controlled by Vercel and retained according to the applicable Vercel plan and service configuration. Cofra does not use those logs to profile visitors or advertise to them.
Support correspondence
When you contact support, the message may include your email address, the content you write, and attachments you choose to send. Your email provider and the operator's email provider process that correspondence to deliver and respond to it.
Please do not send passwords, Apple Account credentials, full expense histories, CloudKit records, financial account details, or unredacted screenshots. Support correspondence is retained only as reasonably needed to respond, maintain necessary records, prevent abuse, and meet legal obligations. You may request deletion of a support message, subject to obligations that require retention.
Retention, deletion, access, and export
App records remain on your device and, when enabled, in your private iCloud database until you delete or change them. You can edit and delete individual expenses in Cofra and manage categories from the app. Changes synchronize between devices when iCloud is available, so propagation may not be immediate.
Deleting the Cofra app does not necessarily delete data already stored in iCloud. Apple provides controls for reviewing and deleting data stored by third-party apps in iCloud; see Apple's iCloud storage guidance.
You can view your expense and category data in Cofra. The current release does not provide a dedicated export feature. Because the data is in your private CloudKit database, the operator cannot retrieve, export, or delete those records for you by default.
Policy changes
This policy may change when Cofra adds features, providers, or data practices. Material updates will be published on this page and the last-updated date will change. The policy in effect when information is processed governs that processing.
