The short version
- Your files, transaction amounts and comparison results stay on your device. No account or bank connection is needed.
- Optional assistance and usage analytics are on by default, if available, when you select Start my comparison. You can switch either off before starting or in Privacy & saving while comparing cards.
- We receive limited technical information and any messages you send us. We don't sell your transaction information or use advertising pixels.
Information we use
Optional assistance uses recognized store names, category corrections and file-format information to improve matching and imports. AI providers receive public business information and generic file-format details.
Usage analytics record pages and actions to help us understand site use. They can connect actions within a visit, but exclude your financial records and contact details. We don't record your screen or inputs.
Services that deliver and protect the website receive technical information such as IP addresses, requested pages, browser details and request times. If you contact us, we use your address, message and attachments to respond and handle your request. Please don't send statements, passwords or account numbers.
Our hosting, analytics, AI and email providers may process information outside Canada, including in the United States, where different laws and government access rules may apply.
Your choices
Manage optional assistance and analytics in Privacy choices at the bottom of the Card Finder start page, or in Privacy & saving during a comparison. We respect previous opt-outs and browser no-tracking preferences for analytics. Turning an option off stops new sharing; it does not automatically delete earlier records.
Your analysis stays in the current tab by default. Remember on this device for 7 days is off unless you choose it. Use Clear my analysis to remove saved work; our saving and clearing details explain the limits of these controls.
Retention
Routine server request logs have a 30-day retention setting. Usage records and correspondence currently have no fixed automatic deletion period. Other technical and feedback records have different retention periods. Contact us about deletion or information we may hold about you.
