Privacy Policy
What Kepwell Family Archive does and doesn't do with your data.
Kepwell Family Archive runs entirely on your own device. We don't operate a server that your data ever touches, we don't have accounts or logins, and we have no way to see, collect, or access anything you enter into the App. There is exactly one automated network request the App makes, described in full below, and it contains no personal information whatsoever.
If you take nothing else from this page: your financial records, documents, and passwords never leave your device unless you personally choose to put them somewhere (a linked folder, a cloud-synced drive, an exported backup file you save yourself).
None. Kepwell (the company) does not collect, receive, store, or have access to any data you enter into the App — not your accounts, not your documents, not your login credentials, not your master password, nothing. All of it is encrypted with AES-256 using a master password that only you know, and stored locally in your browser's own storage on your device.
When you have an internet connection, the App automatically looks up current currency exchange rates (if you use more than one currency) by contacting open.er-api.com. This request includes only a currency code (e.g., "USD") — no account information, no personal data, and nothing that identifies you or your device. If you're offline, this simply doesn't happen and the App uses the last rate it fetched.
No other network requests are made by the App itself. There is no analytics tracking, no telemetry, no crash reporting, and no "phone home" of any kind.
- On your device, inside your browser's local storage, encrypted with your master password.
- Anywhere you choose to put it, if you use the App's optional features to link a backup file location or a documents folder to a location you control (an external drive, a folder synced by a cloud service like Dropbox or Google Drive, etc.). Those are your choices and your accounts with those services — Kepwell has no visibility into them.
- In any backup file you export yourself. These are encrypted, and can be stored wherever you like.
Your purchase is processed by Paddle.com Market Ltd, who acts as the Merchant of Record for this product. Paddle collects the personal and payment information necessary to process your order (name, email, payment details, and country for tax purposes) under its own privacy policy, available at paddle.com/legal/privacy. Kepwell receives only what's needed to know a valid purchase was made — we do not receive your payment card details, and we do not build a customer database beyond what's needed to support license activation issues if you contact us.
The App itself is a local file and sets no cookies. If you visit our product/landing page before purchasing, that page may use only what's necessary for basic functioning — no advertising trackers or third-party analytics are used on it as of this writing.
The App is intended for use by adults managing household and family records. It is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect information from children — nor could we, since we don't collect information from anyone.
Because Kepwell does not hold any of your personal data, there is generally nothing for us to provide, correct, or delete on request — your data lives under your own control on your own device. For questions about data Paddle holds related to your purchase (receipts, payment details), contact Paddle directly or via preferences.paddle.com.
If this policy changes, we'll update the "Last updated" date above. Since the App itself doesn't check in with us, we'd recommend checking this page occasionally if you want to stay current.
