Security & privacy (concept)
How a product like Ledgerly would protect your data
Ledgerly is a concept, so it holds no data at all. This page sets out, in general terms, how a real bookkeeping product like it would be expected to keep financial information safe.
Safeguards a real product would need
Read-only bank access
A real product would only ever be able to read transactions, through a regulated bank-connection provider. It could never move money or make payments.
Encryption everywhere
Data would be encrypted in transit with modern TLS and encrypted at rest, with keys managed separately from the data.
Strong sign-in
Two-factor authentication, passkey support and alerts for new sign-ins would be standard, with sessions you can see and end.
Least-privilege access
Staff access to customer data would be limited, logged and only granted for support you've asked for.
UK and EU hosting
Data would be stored in UK or EU data centres, with regular, tested backups.
Your data, your call
Export everything at any time, and delete your account and data when you leave.
Privacy principles
- Collect the minimum. Only what's needed to keep your books, and nothing to sell or share for advertising.
- Be clear about why. A plain-English privacy notice explaining what's collected, why and for how long, in line with UK GDPR.
- No surprises. No third-party advertising trackers inside the app.
- Accountant access you control. Invite and remove your accountant yourself; they'd only see what you share.
What this page doesn't claim
Ledgerly has no security certifications, audits, regulatory authorisations or bank partnerships, because it isn't a real company or product. A real product would need to earn those independently and publish the evidence.
