Privacy Policy

Effective Date: 23 January 2026

Geoff (“we”, “us”, or “our”) takes your privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect your personal data, and the choices you have when using Geoff.

1. Who We Are (Data Controller)

Geoff is operated by Geoff Ltd, a company registered in the United Kingdom.

 

For the purposes of UK data protection law, Geoff Ltd is the data controller of your personal data.

 

You can contact us at:

support@geoff.money
deletion@geoff.money

2. Information We Collect

a) Information You Provide

When you create an account or join a waitlist, we may collect:

  • Your email address

  • Your name (optional)

b) Email Data (With Explicit Consent)

If you choose to connect your email account (e.g. Gmail or Outlook), Geoff is granted read-only access via secure OAuth authentication provided by Google or Microsoft.

 

We request only the minimum access scope required (for example, gmail.readonly) and never request permission to send, delete, or modify emails.

 

Email data is processed automatically to identify information relevant to Geoff’s features, such as:

  • Receipts and purchase confirmations

  • Booking confirmations (travel, utilities, services)

  • Vouchers, promotions, and renewal notices

  • Travel booking confirmations, tickets, and itinerary updates

  • Delay, cancellation, or arrival notifications related to rail or air travel

 

Processing is performed by automated systems only, including rules-based filtering and machine-learning models, to extract specific, structured data points (e.g. merchant, date, amount, renewal timing).

 

Geoff does not use email access to read, interpret, or analyse personal conversations, opinions, or private correspondence.

Emails that do not meet relevant criteria are ignored or discarded automatically.

 

Geoff never receives or stores your email password.

You may revoke email access at any time via:

  • Your Geoff account settings, or

  • Your Google or Microsoft account security settings

 
Geoff may also process structured property-related data (such as council tax banding and property characteristics) obtained from public sources or user input for the purpose of providing indicative comparisons.

c) Bank & Financial Data (With Explicit Consent)

If you choose to connect a bank account, Geoff accesses your financial data via Yapily, an FCA-authorised Open Banking provider.

 

Yapily is authorised and regulated by the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).
Geoff accesses bank data under Yapily’s regulatory umbrella, using secure Open Banking APIs.

 

Through Yapily, Geoff may access:

  • Account details

  • Balances

  • Transaction data

 

Access is read-only, purpose-limited, and used solely to provide Geoff’s features.

 

Geoff never sees, receives, or stores your bank login credentials.
Authentication and consent occur directly between you, your bank, and Yapily.

d) Usage & Technical Data

We may also collect:

  • Feature usage and interaction data

  • Click activity on promotions or vouchers

  • Anonymised or pseudonymised identifiers for affiliate attribution

  • Basic diagnostic and performance data

3. How We Use Your Data

We use your data to:

  • Provide and operate Geoff’s features (e.g. identifying vouchers, renewal timing, switching opportunities, travel price monitoring)

  • Generate insights, reminders, and notifications

  • Attribute referrals or purchases via affiliate partners

  • Improve reliability, performance, and usability

  • Communicate important service updates

  • Identify potential eligibility for travel-related refunds or compensation and generate draft claim content

    We do not sell personal data and do not share personal data with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

 

We do not sell personal data and do not share personal data with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

4. Automated Processing & AI Use

Geoff uses automated processing, including machine-learning models, to:

  • Identify relevant data sources
  • Extract structured information
  • Generate insights based on predefined rules
 

No automated decision-making produces legal or similarly significant effects without appropriate human oversight.

5. Data Minimisation & Pseudonymisation

Wherever possible:

  • Extracted data is linked to internal identifiers, not directly to personal details

  • Identifiers and personal details are stored separately with restricted access

  • Only structured outputs required for Geoff’s features are retained

 

Some data (e.g. financial records) cannot be fully anonymised without breaking functionality, but access is always restricted and purpose-limited.

6. Lawful Basis for Processing (UK GDPR)

We process data under the following lawful bases:

  • Consent – for email and bank connections

  • Performance of a contract – to provide Geoff’s services

  • Legitimate interests – service improvement, security, fraud prevention, affiliate attribution

 

You may withdraw consent at any time by disconnecting linked services.

7. Data Sharing

We share data only where necessary:

  • Google / Microsoft – for OAuth authentication

  • Yapily – our FCA-authorised Open Banking provider

  • Affiliate partners – using anonymised or pseudonymised identifiers solely for attribution

 

We do not share raw email content with affiliate partners.

8. International Data Transfers

Some service providers may process data outside the UK/EEA.
Where this occurs, appropriate safeguards are in place.

9. Data Security & Retention

  • Industry-standard encryption and access controls

  • Financial data encrypted in transit and at rest

  • Data retained only as long as necessary to provide the service or meet legal obligations

10. Cookies & Tracking

Geoff may use cookies or similar technologies to:

  • Enable core functionality

  • Analyse performance and usage

  • Support affiliate attribution

 

Where required, appropriate notice and choice are provided.
