Privacy Policy
Effective date: March 2026
MegaSuperSoft ("we", "us", "our") operates megasupersoft.com and publishes desktop software including FFFFinance. This policy explains what data we collect, what we don't, and why.
The short version: we collect as little as possible. Our software is local-first, meaning your data stays on your device by default.
What we don't collect
This is the most important section of this policy.
- No telemetry. Our desktop applications do not phone home. We don't collect usage analytics, crash reports, or behavioural data unless you explicitly opt in.
- No tracking. This website does not use cookies, analytics scripts, tracking pixels, or fingerprinting.
- No advertising. We don't sell ads, so we have no reason to profile you.
- No data sales. We have never sold user data and never will.
Desktop applications
FFFFinance
FFFFinance is a local-first application. All your financial data — transactions, accounts, categories, budgets — is stored in a local database on your device. We cannot access it.
Bank connections via Akahu. If you choose to connect your bank accounts, FFFFinance uses Akahu, a licensed open banking provider regulated by New Zealand financial authorities. When you connect:
- You authenticate directly with Akahu. We never see your bank credentials.
- Transaction data flows from Akahu's API directly into your local database.
- We do not receive, store, or have access to your bank data at any point.
- You can disconnect your accounts and revoke Akahu's access at any time from within FFFFinance or from Akahu's dashboard.
Akahu's own privacy policy governs how they handle your data during the connection process. We encourage you to review it at akahu.nz/privacy.
Cloud sync (if available). If we offer optional cloud sync in the future, it will use end-to-end encryption. Your data will be encrypted on your device before transmission, and only you will hold the decryption keys. We will update this policy before any such feature ships.
Auto-update. FFFFinance checks for updates by making a request to our CDN. This request includes your app version and operating system. We do not log or store this information.
This website
megasupersoft.com is a static site. It does not use cookies, local storage, or any client-side tracking.
Hosting and CDN. This site is served via Cloudflare. Cloudflare may process standard connection data (IP address, browser type, request URL) as part of delivering the site and providing security. This processing is governed by Cloudflare's privacy policy.
Fonts. We load fonts from Google Fonts. Google may log standard request data when serving font files. See Google's privacy policy.
Data retention
Since we don't collect your data, there is nothing to retain or delete.
For any data processed by third parties (Akahu, Cloudflare, Google Fonts), refer to their respective privacy policies for retention details.
Your rights under the NZ Privacy Act 2020
If you're in New Zealand, you have the right to:
- Access any personal information we hold about you.
- Request correction of any inaccurate personal information.
- Lodge a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner if you believe we've breached the Privacy Act.
In practice, we hold very little (if any) personal information. If you believe we do, contact us and we'll respond within 20 working days as required by the Act.
Children's privacy
Our software is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be noted on this page with an updated effective date. We will not reduce your rights under this policy without giving notice.
