Terms of Service
Last Updated: August 9, 2026
1. Acceptance of Terms
Piggy Banks ("the Service") is operated by Piggy Banks Online LLC ("we," "our," or "us"). By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not use the Service.
We may update these Terms from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by updating the "Last Updated" date above. Your continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.
2. Description of Service
Piggy Banks is a personal planning application that allows you to:
- Connect your bank accounts to import transactions
- Categorize and organize your spending
- Create and manage plans
- View reports and insights about your finances
The Service is provided for personal, non-commercial use only. Piggy Banks is a planning tool and does not provide financial advice, investment recommendations, or credit services.
3. Account Registration
To use the Service, you must sign in with a valid personal Microsoft, Google, or Apple account. By signing in, you represent that:
- You are at least 18 years of age
- The identity-provider account you use is your own
- You will keep your provider account credentials secure
- You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account
4. Bank Connections
When you connect a bank account through our third-party provider, you acknowledge and agree that:
- You authorize us to retrieve your account information and transaction history through our bank data provider
- Your bank login credentials are handled entirely by the third-party provider — Piggy Banks never sees, stores, or has access to your bank username, password, or PIN
- We receive read-only access to your account information and cannot move money, make payments, or modify your bank accounts
- You may disconnect your bank accounts at any time from within the application
Your use of bank connection features is also subject to the terms and privacy policies of the third-party bank data provider.
5. Household Sharing
The Service supports shared budgets among a household of up to three members. By inviting another person to join your budget or by accepting an invitation, you acknowledge:
- The owner of a budget controls membership. Only the owner can invite a new member or remove an existing one.
- All current members of a budget have equal read/write access to its transactions, plans, and bank connections.
- Members may leave a shared budget at any time. An owner who deletes their account or the budget will cause the data to be deleted for all members.
- Invitations are time-limited (five minutes) and one-time-use. The transfer of access uses encrypted, server-mediated key wrapping; invitations cannot be replayed or shared.
- Once a member is removed, their access ends immediately and irrevocably.
See the Privacy Policy for the technical details of how shared-budget data is encrypted and isolated.
6. User Responsibilities
You agree to use the Service in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. You may not:
- Use the Service for any unlawful or fraudulent purpose
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service, other user accounts, or our systems
- Interfere with or disrupt the Service or its infrastructure
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any part of the Service
- Use the Service on behalf of a third party without authorization
- Use automated means (bots, scrapers) to access the Service
7. Intellectual Property
The Service, including its design, features, and content, is owned by Piggy Banks Online LLC and is protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You retain ownership of your personal financial data.
You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the Service for personal budgeting purposes, subject to these Terms.
8. Privacy
Your use of the Service is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect, use, and protect your information. Key points include:
- All financial data is encrypted at rest using AES-256-GCM encryption
- Each budget is encrypted with its own key; in a shared budget, each member holds their own wrapped copy of that key — we never store a plaintext key on disk
- We do not sell, share, or use your data for advertising or profiling
- We do not use third-party analytics, tracking scripts, or cookies
9. Service Availability
We strive to keep the Service available and reliable, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation. The Service may be temporarily unavailable due to:
- Scheduled or unscheduled maintenance
- Updates or improvements to the Service
- Factors beyond our reasonable control (e.g., internet outages, third-party service disruptions)
10. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
We do not warrant that the Service will meet your requirements, that transaction data will be complete or accurate, or that any errors will be corrected. Piggy Banks is not a financial advisor and the Service should not be relied upon as the sole basis for financial decisions.
11. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, PIGGY BANKS AND ITS OPERATORS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE.
Our total liability for any claims arising from or related to the Service shall not exceed the amount you paid to use the Service in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim, or $100, whichever is greater.
12. Account Termination
You may delete your account at any time from within the application. When you delete your account:
- All your financial data is permanently and irreversibly deleted
- All bank connection tokens are removed
- Your user profile is removed from our systems
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to the Service if you violate these Terms, with or without notice.
13. Subscriptions and Billing
Piggy Banks offers a single paid subscription that keeps your account editable after your free trial. The following terms apply to all subscriptions.
Free trial
New accounts include a 35-day free trial that begins when you finish setting up your account. No payment method is required to start the trial, and the trial is limited to one per account. If you do not subscribe by the end of the trial, your account becomes read-only as described below.
Pricing and payment
The subscription is offered as a monthly plan at $9.99 per month or an annual plan at $99.99 per year, in each case exclusive of any applicable taxes, which are added at checkout. On iOS, subscriptions are sold and processed through Apple In-App Purchase. On the web, subscriptions are processed through our payment providers, RevenueCat and Stripe. We do not receive or store your full payment card details.
Automatic renewal
Subscriptions automatically renew at the then-current price at the end of each billing period unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your payment method is charged for the renewal within 24 hours before the current period ends.
Managing and cancelling
You can cancel at any time. On iOS, manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple ID account settings (Settings → your name → Subscriptions). On the web, manage or cancel from within Piggy Banks (Settings → Manage subscription). Cancelling stops future renewals; your subscription remains active until the end of the period you have already paid for.
Refunds
Except where required by law, payments are non-refundable, and we do not provide refunds or credits for partial billing periods. Purchases made through Apple are subject to Apple's refund policies and must be requested through Apple.
Price changes
We may change subscription prices from time to time. We will give you advance notice of any price change, which will take effect at your next renewal. If you do not agree to a price change, you may cancel before it takes effect.
What happens if your subscription lapses
If your free trial ends without a subscription, or a paid subscription ends without renewing (including after a failed-payment grace period of up to 16 days), your account becomes read-only. You can still view and export all of your data, but you cannot make edits, until you resubscribe. If you do not resubscribe, your account remains read-only for 90 days, after which your account and its data are permanently deleted, following dated advance reminders. See the Privacy Policy (§10) for the full retention schedule.
14. End User License Agreement (iOS)
The Piggy Banks iOS application is licensed, not sold, to you. Your use of the iOS application is additionally governed by Apple's Standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement. To the extent that agreement conflicts with these Terms with respect to the iOS application, the Standard EULA governs. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of that agreement and may enforce it against you.
15. Governing Law
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States. Any disputes arising from these Terms or the Service shall be resolved in accordance with applicable law.
