Service Description

Finsava is a self-hosted personal finance tool that runs on your own hardware. It provides budgeting, transaction tracking, AI-powered financial advice, bank sync, anomaly detection, and related features. You are responsible for deploying, configuring, and maintaining your own instance.

License

Finsava is proprietary software. All rights reserved. You may use the Software in accordance with the terms of the LICENSE file provided with the software. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sublicense, or create derivative works without prior written consent from the owner.

No Warranty

Finsava is provided "as is" without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to the warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. The entire risk as to the quality and performance of the software is with you.

User Responsibility for Data

Because Finsava is self-hosted, you are solely responsible for:

  • Backing up your database and configuration files.
  • Securing access to your Finsava instance (firewalls, passwords, network configuration).
  • Ensuring compliance with any applicable laws or regulations related to your financial data.
  • Managing API keys and credentials for third-party integrations such as SimpleFin and Plaid.

We do not have access to your self-hosted data and cannot recover it if lost.

Subscription and Billing

Finsava offers the following tiers:

  • Free (Self-Hosted): Core features at no cost. You host on your own hardware.
  • Pro (Self-Hosted): Advanced features including analytics, auto-categorization, savings goals, and priority support. Billed monthly or annually.
  • Cloud (Managed): Everything in Pro plus managed hosting, cloud AI, automatic backups, and team collaboration. Billed monthly or annually.

For paid tiers: billing is recurring at the interval selected at checkout. You may cancel at any time; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. We do not offer refunds for partial billing periods. We reserve the right to change pricing with 30 days' notice to existing subscribers. If payment fails, your account may be downgraded to the Free tier after a 7-day grace period.
