LedgerMCP: Privacy Policy
LedgerMCP, LLC
Effective date: July 7, 2026
Last updated: July 9, 2026
LedgerMCP, LLC ("LedgerMCP," "we," "us," or "our") provides double-entry
bookkeeping software that businesses and their authorized AI agents use to keep
their books ("the Service"). This Privacy Policy explains what information we
collect, how we use and share it, and the choices you have.
By using the Service you agree to this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree,
please do not use the Service.
1. Information We Collect
Information you provide.
- Account information: your email address (used for passwordless sign-in),
and, if you enable two-factor authentication, your enrolled authenticator
factor.
- Business and bookkeeping data: the businesses, chart of accounts,
transactions, categorizations, tags, journal entries, notes, and files you or
your authorized agent create or upload, including receipts and tax documents
such as contractor W-9 forms.
- Payment and billing information: if you purchase a paid plan, payments
are processed by Stripe, Inc. We share your email address and an account
identifier with Stripe and store your Stripe customer and subscription
identifiers; we never receive or store your full card number.
- Support and feedback messages you send us through the Service.
Financial account information (via Plaid).
If you choose to connect a bank or financial account, you do so through
Plaid Inc. ("Plaid"). You authenticate directly with your financial
institution through Plaid; **we never see or store your bank login
credentials.** Through Plaid we receive, on your authorization, information such
as account names, account and routing identifiers as applicable, balances, and
transaction history, which we use to populate your books. Your use of Plaid is
also governed by Plaid's End User Privacy Policy.
Information collected automatically.
- Usage and log data: limited technical logs (such as request method, page
path, timestamp, and status) used to operate and secure the Service. We do
not log authentication credentials or secrets.
- Cookies: we use a single, essential, httpOnly session cookie to keep you
signed in. We do not use advertising or third-party tracking cookies.
2. How We Use Information
We use information to:
- provide, maintain, and improve the Service and keep your books;
- authenticate you and secure your account;
- import and categorize your financial transactions;
- respond to your requests and provide support;
- detect, prevent, and address fraud, abuse, and security incidents; and
- comply with legal obligations.
**We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use your financial
data for advertising.** We do not train machine-learning models on your data.
3. AI Agents and the MCP Interface
LedgerMCP is designed to be operated by AI agents (such as Claude or ChatGPT)
that you connect using an API key you generate, or by authorizing a connected
app through an OAuth sign-in flow. When you connect an agent, it acts on your
behalf and can read and write your bookkeeping data according to the key's
scope (full or read-only) for API keys; OAuth connections have full account
access. You control these connections: API keys can be revoked and connected
apps disconnected in Settings at any time. We store API keys and OAuth tokens
only in hashed form. Every change made by a connected agent, and every
destructive action, is recorded in an audit log (including the action's
parameters) that you can review; financial postings are additionally immutable
and correctable only by reversal.
The AI agent is provided by you or a third party (e.g., Anthropic, OpenAI) and
is governed by that provider's own terms and privacy policy; LedgerMCP does not
control the agent.
4. How We Share Information
We share information only as follows:
- Service providers (subprocessors) who help us operate the Service, under
contractual confidentiality and security obligations. These currently
include: Plaid (bank connectivity), Stripe (payment processing), our
cloud database, authentication, and file-storage provider, our **cloud
hosting provider, a network security and content-delivery provider**
(through which traffic to the Service passes), our **email delivery
provider** (sign-in codes and support correspondence), and an
error-monitoring service (which receives error messages and technical
diagnostics only, and is configured not to receive personal information).
- Merchant logos: to display logos next to transactions, our server
requests icons for well-known merchant domains from public favicon services;
these requests contain no personal or account information.
- Legal and safety: when required by law, subpoena, or legal process, or to
protect the rights, property, or safety of LedgerMCP, our users, or others.
- Business transfers: in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing,
or sale of assets, subject to this Privacy Policy.
We do not otherwise sell, rent, or share your personal or financial information
with third parties. We have not sold personal information in the preceding 12
months.
5. Data Retention
We retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to
provide the Service. If you disconnect a financial account, we instruct Plaid to
remove the connection and invalidate the associated access token; transactions
already imported into your books remain unless you delete them. You may export
your bookkeeping data for each business at any time (transactions, general
ledger, accounts, tags, journal entries, and assets; uploaded files are
individually downloadable), and you may request deletion of your account and
associated data (see §7). Some records may be retained where required for legal,
accounting, or security purposes.
6. Security
We protect your information using administrative, technical, and physical
safeguards, including encryption of data in transit (TLS) and at rest,
application-layer encryption of financial access tokens, tenant isolation,
least-privilege access controls, API-key hashing and scoping, rate limiting, and
an append-only audit log. No method of transmission or storage is completely
secure, but we work to protect your information and to respond promptly to any
incident. See our Information Security Policy for details.
7. Your Rights and Choices
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, export, or
delete your personal information, and to object to or restrict certain
processing. You can:
- access and edit most data directly in the Service;
- export your bookkeeping data for each business at any time;
- disconnect financial accounts and connected apps at any time; and
- request account deletion or exercise other rights by contacting us at the
email below.
We will respond to verified requests as required by applicable law. We do not
sell personal information, so no "opt-out of sale" is required.
8. Children's Privacy
The Service is intended for businesses and is not directed to children under 18.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
9. International Users
We operate in the United States, and your information is processed there. If you
access the Service from outside the United States, you consent to the processing
of your information in the United States.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated
version with a revised "Last updated" date and, where appropriate, provide
additional notice. Your continued use of the Service after an update constitutes
acceptance of the revised policy.
