Under UK GDPR Article 20 (Right to Data Portability), you can download a complete copy of all the personal data De Kind holds about you. We make this free for all users — UK law actually forbids us from charging for it.
How to download
- Sign in and go to Settings.
- Scroll to the Privacy & data section.
- Click Download JSON.
- A file named
dekind-export-YYYY-MM-DD-XXXXXXXX.jsonwill save to your downloads folder.
What's in it
- Your account: email, display name, role (Parent A or B), join date.
- Your household: name, currency, subscription tier, creation date.
- Other household members: display name and role only. We replace their authentication identifiers with neutral labels (
other_parent_1) so the export doesn't leak anything about them beyond what you already see in the app. - All children registered in the household.
- All custody log entries with timestamps and any notes you logged.
- All requests sent or received, with their descriptions, statuses, and resolution dates.
- All cost entries with amounts (in pence), categories, dates, and descriptions.
- Invite codes you created or used.
- Push subscription endpoints for your own devices.
Encrypted fields & receipts
Three text fields are stored encrypted in our database — request descriptions, custody log notes, and cost descriptions. In your export they are decrypted automatically, so you'll see the original plain-text values.
Receipts are stored as files rather than text, so they aren't embedded in the JSON. Instead, each cost carries a receipt_attached true/false flag. To download the receipt images or PDFs themselves, open each cost in the app and use View receipt; if you need the receipt files in bulk, contact us.
Format and use
The export is deliberately raw JSON: ISO 8601 timestamps, integer pence for money, internal status enums (pending, acknowledged, etc.). It's designed to be imported into another tool, fed to a script, or archived. If you want a court-ready, formatted PDF of the record, that's a separate Premium feature available in Reports.
Frequency
Download as often as you like. There's no rate limit and no quota. Each download is generated fresh from the current state of your record.
