We keep financial and audit records so they can be checked later. You can export your own data at any time. You can delete your settings, browsing history and ordinary messages yourself. We never sell data.
| Record | What it holds | How long | Can you delete it? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Account | Name, email, password hash (never the password), status | While the account is open; closed accounts are disabled, not erased, so records stay linked | Ask Albert to close it |
| Invoices, receipts, payment steps | Amounts, dates, method, reference, SHA-256 fingerprint | At least 7 years, for tax and accounting | No. Hidden from your mailbox on request, but kept |
| Crypto records | Asset, network, amount, transaction hash, wallet label you typed. Never keys or seed phrases | At least 7 years. Mistakes are marked void, never edited | No, but they can be voided |
| AI usage receipts | Model, tokens, time, cost, byte counts and fingerprints. Not the text of your question | At least 7 years | No |
| Settings and personalization | Your display choices | Until you change or delete them | Yes, from your account page |
| Browsing history inside the portal | Which account pages you opened, and when | Until you delete it | Yes, from your account page |
| Portal mailbox messages | Messages between you and Albert | Until you delete them (financial notices are kept) | Yes, ordinary messages |
| Sign-in sessions | A hashed session token | 8 hours | Log out ends it |
| Security logs | IP address, network and country for sign-ins, failed attempts and probes of closed paths | Kept for security review | No |
| Published research and evidence files | Public documents with SHA-256 | Kept permanently, unaltered | Not applicable |
Financial and audit records are append-only and hash-chained, so a changed or removed entry is detectable. Exports carry a SHA-256 fingerprint. Data is stored with Cloudflare (Workers, D1 and Durable Objects).
Export everything in your account as JSON from the account page. Ask questions through your portal mailbox. This policy is a plain statement of current practice. It is not a certification or a legal guarantee, and it will be updated here if practice changes.
