+ + + + + + + +Manifesto¶ +1. Data Ownership ¶ +User owns the data. It should be possible to migrate all the data to +another app or service. Paisa will strive to make this as easy as +possible by choosing open standards and formats. + +All the transaction data are stored in Ledger text format. + +2. Privacy ¶ +User's data is private. Paisa will not collect or send any data to any +server1. Paisa will not use any third party analytics or tracking on +the app2. + +Paisa's source code is open source and can be audited by anyone. + +3. Longevity ¶ +The app should be available for a long time. It takes a lot of effort +to collect and maintain the transaction data. The app should not just +disappear one day. Paisa will strive to avoid unnecessary dependencies +and build a self contained app. + +Paisa is licensed under AGPL v3, which helps with this issue to some +extent. I have yet to figure out a way to make the app development +and maintenance process sustainable in the long term. But rest +assured, any decision made related to this will not override the +first two points. + + + + + +Paisa fetches commodity price information from third party +servers. Since Paisa will send the commodity identifier to the +server, the third party server might be able to connect the +commodity list with the user's IP address. This is an opt-in +feature, as you have to explicitly configure Paisa to fetch +price. VPN could be used if you want to avoid this. ↩ + + +This doesn't include the website paisa.fyi, which is hosted on +third party servers and has consent based analytics. ↩ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + Was this page helpful? + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + Thanks for your feedback! + + + + + + + + Thanks for your feedback!
