Cookie and Data Usage Policy
Understanding how jyntheral uses tracking technologies to enhance your budgeting experience
What Are Cookies and Tracking Technologies?
When you visit jyntheral.com, small data files get stored on your device. Think of them as digital sticky notes that help us remember your preferences and improve how our budgeting tools work for you.
These technologies include traditional cookies, local storage, session storage, and similar tracking methods. We use them to make your monthly budgeting journey smoother and more personalized.
Types of Tracking We Use
Essential Cookies
These keep our budgeting platform running properly. They remember if you're logged in, maintain your session security, and ensure forms work correctly when you're setting up your monthly budget.
Functional Cookies
These remember your preferences like currency settings, notification choices, and how you like your budget categories organized. They make returning to jyntheral feel familiar.
Analytics Cookies
We track which budgeting features get used most, where people struggle with our tools, and how we can make the financial planning process clearer for Australian users.
Marketing Cookies
These help us show you relevant content about budgeting tips and financial planning resources. We also use them to measure how effective our educational content is.
How Tracking Enhances Your Experience
Here's what this means for your day-to-day use of jyntheral. When you set up budget categories, we remember them for next time. If you're halfway through creating a monthly spending plan and get interrupted, we save your progress.
For our educational content, tracking helps us understand which budgeting topics resonate with Australian users. Maybe everyone's struggling with grocery budget allocation, or people need more guidance on emergency fund planning. This data shapes the resources we create.
We also use tracking to spot technical issues before they affect your budgeting workflow. If our expense tracking feature starts loading slowly, we know about it quickly.
Data Retention and Your Control
Different types of data stick around for different periods. Essential session data disappears when you close your browser. Preference settings might stay for up to two years so you don't have to reconfigure everything.
Analytics data gets anonymized after six months. Marketing tracking typically expires after 90 days, though some long-term campaign analysis might extend to one year.
Your Rights and Options
- You can clear all cookies through your browser settings at any time
- Request specific data deletion by contacting our support team
- Opt out of non-essential tracking while still using core budgeting features
- Export your personal data for your own records
- Set preferences for different types of tracking individually
Managing Cookies Through Your Browser
Every major browser gives you control over cookie settings. Here's where to find these options:
Third-Party Services and Data Sharing
jyntheral works with several external services to provide you with better budgeting tools. Our analytics provider helps us understand user behavior patterns. We use a customer support platform that tracks conversation history to provide better help.
Payment processing for premium features involves secure third-party providers who have their own cookie policies. Email newsletter services track open rates and engagement to help us send more relevant budgeting tips.
We never sell your personal data to advertisers or data brokers. Any sharing happens under strict agreements that require the same privacy standards we maintain.
Updates to This Policy
As we add new features to jyntheral or privacy regulations change, this policy gets updated. We'll notify active users through email or prominent site notices about any significant changes.
Minor clarifications or technical updates might happen without individual notifications, but we always update the "last modified" date at the top of this page.

We're here to explain our data practices in plain language. Whether you want to understand specific tracking methods or need help adjusting your privacy settings, our team can walk you through the details.
