privacy
lendmate is built to hold as little as possible, and to keep what it does hold private to the people you share a tracker with.
what i collect
the tracker details you enter as the admin — a name, owner name, default currency, and notes.
the people you track — their real name, how you know them (e.g. "sister", "neighbor"), and notes.
each record — whether it's an item or cash lent or borrowed, a title, description, amount and currency, transaction/due/reminder dates, and status (active, returned, paid, settled, or cancelled), plus any notes added to it.
your browser locally remembers the display name you last typed into a note, so you don't retype it each time — that's the only thing stored on your device.
what i use it for
showing you what's outstanding — what you're owed, what you owe, and what's been settled.
what i'll never do
sell your data, run ads against it, or share who owes whom with anyone outside your tracker.
where your data lives
in a private, access-controlled postgres database. names, relationships, notes, and amounts are stored as entered — only the admin and view access tokens are one-way hashed, and those tokens live in the shareable link, not the database. there's no public listing; access is controlled entirely by having the link.
if you open lendmate from homebase, your homebase account email is shown in that session's page header only — lendmate doesn't store it.
your data, your call
mark a record settled or remove it any time from the tracker. email me if you want a tracker's data gone for good.
