Local by default, cloud by choice.
Alnon Group of Systems and Networks operates the Malo app and cloud service. We do not sell user data or use it for advertising.
1. Scope
This policy applies to the Malo app, its optional cloud service, and this website. Data may remain local to your device or be transmitted to Malo's service according to the options you enable.
2. Data we handle
- Local data: accounts, entries, debts, categories, directory items, notes, settings, and attachments you add. This remains on your device unless you enable sync or take an action that sends it.
- Cloud account data: name, numeric Malo account identifier, a password whose original text we do not store, base currency, and account settings.
- Synced data: financial content, directory items, and attachments included in the workspace when sync is enabled.
- Service data: account details, linked devices, and usage times needed for sign-in, sync, and troubleshooting.
- Support correspondence: what you choose to send when asking for help.
3. Why data is used
- To create, access, recover, and manage an account and linked devices.
- To provide optional sync and make your data available on linked devices.
- To provide requested functions, resolve service issues, and respond to support.
- To meet any applicable legal obligation.
4. Local use and sync
You do not need an account to use Malo locally. When you create an account and enable sync, the necessary workspace data is sent to the Malo service. Turning sync off does not delete data already synced; delete the account from within the app to remove the cloud copy.
5. Sharing and other parties
We do not sell data or share it with advertisers. Hosting and essential service providers may process it only as needed to operate Malo, or we may disclose what is required by applicable law or a valid official request.
6. Retention and deletion
Local data remains on your device until you delete it or clear the app's data. Cloud account data and synced content remain while the account exists. Deleting the account from the app or the self-service deletion page removes the account and its data from the service; a limited copy may remain temporarily only within backup cycles or where retention is legally required. Deletion does not cover files you exported or copies on your devices, which remain your responsibility.
7. Data protection
We take measures appropriate to the service, while recognizing that no digital service is free of risk. You are responsible for protecting your device, sign-in details, and backup files and for not sharing them with others.
8. Your choices
The app provides tools to edit your data, export a copy, stop sync, and delete the cloud account. You may contact us with questions about data handling or for support, subject to rights available under applicable law.
9. Children
Malo is not designed or directed for children, and we do not knowingly request a child to create a cloud account without the required authority. Contact us if you believe an account was created improperly.
10. Updates and contact
We may update this policy when the service or requirements change and will publish the new date here. For questions and requests: malo@nabil.pm.
