Privacy

We collect as little as we can. This page covers your Mako account and mako.financial.

mako.financial is a product of iMedia Enterprises, Inc., which is responsible for your information.

One account across the Mako apps

Every Mako app (mako.watch, mako.community, mako.financial, mako.directory, mako.business, mako.legal, mako.support and the sites they power) ties your account to your email address. You can sign in with a one-time code sent to that address, or with Google, and later with Apple. There is no password. On a phone or tablet you may also add a passkey (Face ID, fingerprint and the like) so the device can sign you in; the passkey itself stays on your device.

Signing in with Google

If you choose Google, Google tells us your email address, whether Google has verified it, and a unique account number. Google may also share your name and profile picture. We use these only to create your account, sign you in and show who is signed in. We do not ask Google for anything else, such as your contacts, files, mail or calendar.

mako.financial's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. We do not sell this information, use it for advertising, or let people read it except where you ask us to, where security requires it, or where the law does.

What we keep

• Your email address and when you joined.
• Your Google or Apple account number, if you sign in with one.
• For each device you choose to remember or add a passkey to: a device name and when it was last used.
• A sign-in code only as a scrambled value, for a few minutes, until it is used or expires.
• For each bank or card account you link: its name, type, balances and transactions.
• The categories, notes, bills, goals and questions you add.
• Documents you upload, such as statements and receipts.
• If you write to us: your name, email address and message, kept as a support ticket so we can answer and follow up. We use them only to reply.

Linking a bank

Bank links are made through Plaid. You sign in to your bank in Plaid's window, so we never see your bank password. Plaid sends us your balances and transactions, read only: mako.financial cannot move money. You can unlink an account at any time.

AI notes

Some apps write short notes with the help of an AI service. It may receive transaction details such as the merchant, date and amount. It never receives account numbers, routing numbers or card numbers, and may not use what it receives to train its models. Forecast numbers come from our own code, never from AI.

Sharing with your accountant

If you invite an accountant or bookkeeper, they see the accounts, questions and documents you choose to share, and nothing else.

What we do not do

No advertising trackers. No outside analytics service on this site. We do not sell or rent your information.

Who else is involved

Our servers are hosted by UpCloud. Sites are delivered through Cloudflare, which handles the connection and sees technical details such as your IP address. Files you add to a Mako app may be stored with Cloudflare. Emails are sent from our own servers. Google or Apple are involved only if you choose to sign in with them. Bank links are made through Plaid. AI notes are written with the help of an AI service, as described above. Payments are handled by Stripe; we do not see full card numbers.

Your choices

You can ask for a copy of what we hold about you, or ask us to delete your account and its history. Write to support@mako.design from the address you signed up with. You can also remove our access in your Google account settings at any time.
