What Are Tracking Technologies
Think of cookies as tiny digital notes that websites leave on your
device. When you visit neo-save.com, these small files help us remember
your preferences and understand how you interact with our budgeting
tools. They're not programs that can harm your computer – just simple
text files storing basic information.
Beyond traditional cookies, we also use web beacons (invisible pixels
in emails), session storage (temporary data while browsing), and
analytics scripts that track page views and user interactions. These
technologies work together to create a smoother experience when you're
managing your finances through our platform.
Essential Cookies Cannot Be Disabled
Some cookies are absolutely necessary for neo-save.com to function
properly. These include login authentication, security tokens, and
basic functionality cookies that remember your session. Without
these, you wouldn't be able to access your account or use our
budget reporting features safely.
Functional Cookies
Remember your dashboard preferences, currency settings, and
notification choices. These make your return visits more
personalized without tracking your behavior across other
websites.
Analytics Cookies
Help us understand which budget features are most useful and
where users might be struggling. This anonymous data guides our
improvements to the reporting system.
Marketing Cookies
Track visits from our educational content and email campaigns.
They help us measure the effectiveness of our financial
literacy resources and avoid showing you irrelevant content.
How We Use Your Data
Your interaction data helps us improve Neo-Save's budget reporting
capabilities in meaningful ways. When we see that users frequently
access certain expense categories, we prioritize those in our interface
updates. If our analytics show people struggling with specific
features, we create targeted help content or simplify those processes.
We analyze aggregated patterns – like which reports are generated most
often or what time of month users are most active – to optimize server
performance and plan new features. Personal financial data remains
completely separate from tracking data and is never used for marketing
purposes.
Data Retention Periods
Analytics data is retained for 26 months to identify long-term
usage trends. Marketing cookies expire after 90 days. Session data
is automatically deleted when you close your browser. Essential
security cookies last up to 12 months for your protection.
Managing Your Browser Settings
Every modern browser gives you control over cookies and tracking.
Here's how to access these settings in popular browsers, though keep in
mind that blocking all cookies might affect your experience with our
budget reporting tools.

store cookies permanently. However, you'll need to log into Neo-Save
fresh each time you use private browsing, and your dashboard
preferences won't be remembered between sessions.
