Your data

Privacy & security

How Clarius keeps your money data private — on-device by default, encrypted at rest, no ads, no tracking.

Clarius is built privacy-first. Your financial life is yours.

On your device by default

Your budgets, categories, and spending live in a database on your device. Nothing is uploaded unless you deliberately turn on cloud sync or create a backup.

Encrypted at rest

The on-device database is encrypted (SQLCipher), and backups are encrypted with AES-256-GCM. So even the copy stored on your device is protected.

Locked behind your PIN

The app is gated by a 6-digit PIN, with optional Face ID / Touch ID. You can also set an auto-lock timeout in Profile → Security so the app re-locks after a period in the background.

No ads, no tracking

Clarius doesn’t show ads and doesn’t track you for advertising. Signing in with Apple creates your account and unlocks paid plans — it doesn’t hand your spending data to anyone.

Good habits

  • Choose a PIN you don’t use elsewhere, and turn on Face ID / Touch ID.
  • Turn on Hide Balances (Profile → Security) if you don’t want figures visible over your shoulder.
  • Keep any backup file somewhere safe.
