How Does Plaid Protect my Data?

Plaid helps you safely connect your financial accounts to the apps and services you love (like Revenued!). They use numerous ways to protect your personal data, information, transaction history, your account details, and much more. 

• Plaid does not sell your data to Revenued : You’re in control of what you share with Reveneud and for how long. Plaid doesn’t share your data with anyone without your permission.
• Encryption safeguards your data while using Plaid : When you use Plaid to connect a bank account to an app, it keeps your data safe and private with best-in-class encryption protocols like the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES 256) and Transport Layer Security (TLS).
• Multi-factor authentication adds an extra layer of security : To help ensure a secure account connection, Plaid built its own multi-factor authentication (MFA) in case your financial institution doesn’t offer one. With Plaid’s MFA as a backup, almost all logins feature this extra security step.
• Our products are built on secure cloud infrastructure : Plaid uses modern cloud technologies to host the Plaid API. By using cloud infrastructure, they are able to leverage years of safety enhancements to better protect data.
• Around-the-clock monitoring protects your information : Robust safety monitoring, automated alerts, and a 24/7 on-call team help Plaid quickly respond to and resolve any potential issues, so you can be confident your private information is secure.
