Gold Penguin LLC ("we," "our," or "us") operates the MRR Tracker mobile application (the "App"). This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your information when you use our App.
Our Privacy Commitment
MRR Tracker is designed with privacy as a core principle. Your financial data stays on your device and, if you choose, in your personal iCloud account. We do not collect, transmit, or have access to your personal or financial information.
