Security

How Kick protects your financial data and what you should know about privacy.

Your financial data is sensitive, and Kick is built to protect it. Here's what you should know about how Kick handles your data and keeps your account secure.

---

Data encryption

All data transmitted to and from Kick is encrypted in transit using TLS. Data at rest is encrypted using AES-256 - the same standard used by banks and major financial institutions. Your credentials are never stored in plain text.

---

Bank connections

Kick connects to your financial institutions through Plaid, a trusted third-party service that powers bank connections for thousands of financial apps. Kick never sees or stores your bank login credentials - authentication happens directly through Plaid's secure, encrypted flow.

Access controls

Kick uses role-based access control so you decide exactly who can see and do what in your workspace. You can add or remove team members at any time, scope access to specific entities, and change roles as your needs evolve.

Data retention

Kick retains your financial data for as long as your account is active and as long as necessary to provide the service. Data may also be retained where required by law or for legitimate business purposes such as fraud prevention. Backup copies may exist in secure systems for a limited period as protection against data loss.

Privacy
