Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 1, 2026

1. Overview

ChequeGuru ("we", "our", or "the software") is a desktop cheque printing application for Windows. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding that information. We take your privacy seriously — and by design, almost all of your data never leaves your computer.

2. Data stored locally on your computer

All data you enter into ChequeGuru is stored in a local database on your computer. This includes:

  • Payee names and bank account numbers
  • Company names and account details
  • Cheque history and printed records
  • Bank account and chequebook configurations

This data is never transmitted to our servers. It remains entirely under your control on your local machine. You can back it up, move it, or delete it at any time using the tools in the application.

3. Information we collect

We collect limited information to operate the website and license system:

Website visitors

We use Google Analytics to collect anonymised usage data (pages visited, referrers, approximate location) to understand how the site is used. No personally identifiable information is collected via analytics.

Purchase information

When you purchase a license, your name, email address, and payment information are collected and processed by our payment processor (Paddle). We receive confirmation of the purchase and your email address for license delivery. We do not store payment card details.

License activation

When you activate ChequeGuru with a license key, the key is verified against our licensing server. No cheque data or payee information is sent during activation.

Support requests

When you contact us for support, we collect your email address and any information you choose to include in your message. We use this information only to respond to your request.

4. How we use your information

  • To deliver your license key and activation email after purchase
  • To verify license validity during software activation
  • To respond to support requests
  • To improve the website based on anonymised analytics
  • To comply with legal obligations

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.

5. Cookies

Our website uses cookies for Google Analytics (analytics cookies) and to remember your preferences. You may disable cookies in your browser settings; however, some website functionality may be affected.

6. Data retention

Purchase records and license information are retained for as long as necessary to provide license support and comply with financial record-keeping requirements. Support correspondence is retained for up to 2 years. You may request deletion of your personal information by contacting us.

7. Your rights

You have the right to:

  • Request access to personal information we hold about you
  • Request correction of inaccurate information
  • Request deletion of your personal information
  • Opt out of marketing communications at any time

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at the address below.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes are effective when posted on this page. We will note the updated date at the top of the policy.
