We may collect the following categories of personal information:

We collect this information directly from you, from financial institutions and partners you choose to connect with, from identity verification providers, and automatically when you use our services.
3. How we use information
We use personal information to:
- Provide, operate, and improve our conversational banking and financial services.

4. How we share information
We may share personal information with:
- Payment and financial services partners — including Stripe and partner financial institutions that help us provide virtual accounts, payment processing, treasury services, and international transfers.
- Identity and compliance providers — to verify identity, perform sanctions screening, and meet regulatory obligations.
- Service providers — cloud hosting, analytics, customer support, and security vendors that process data on our behalf under contractual safeguards.
- Financial institution clients — when you use Carla through a bank, cooperative, or fintech that has integrated our platform, we may share information necessary to complete your requested transactions under their program.
- Legal and regulatory recipients — when required by law or to respond to valid legal process.
- Business transfers — in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets, subject to appropriate confidentiality protections.
We do not sell your personal information. We do not share personal information with nonaffiliated third parties for their own marketing purposes without your consent, except as permitted by law.

When you use financial products issued or held in partnership with a bank, that institution’s privacy policy may also apply. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of our financial partners associated with your product.

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the site, remember preferences, measure traffic, and improve security. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect certain site features.
6. Data retention
We retain personal information for as long as needed to provide services, comply with legal and regulatory obligations (including financial recordkeeping requirements), resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Retention periods vary depending on the type of data and applicable law.

We implement administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information, including encryption in transit, access controls, monitoring, and contractual requirements for service providers. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.
