Payment information is processed securely through Stripe. We do not store your credit card details on our servers. Stripe's privacy policy can be found at https://stripe.com/privacy.

Local Data Storage

BGTracker is a desktop application that stores your order data, tracking information, and business analytics locally on your computer. This data never leaves your device unless you explicitly choose to export it.

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your account information, including encrypted password storage and secure authentication protocols.

5. Data Retention

We retain your account information only as long as your account is active. When you cancel your account, all associated data (email, subscription information) is immediately and permanently deleted from our servers.

Your business data (orders, tracking, finances) stored locally on your device is not affected by account deletion and remains on your computer unless you manually delete it.
