Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 26, 2026

1. Overview

Codex Accounting Assistant is a private local app that connects Codex to QuickBooks Online when authorized by the account owner. This policy explains what information the app accesses and how it is handled.

2. Information Accessed

With your authorization, the app may access QuickBooks Online data needed to complete requested actions, including company information, customers, items, invoices, balances, and related accounting records.

3. How Information Is Used

QuickBooks data is used only to perform actions you request, such as finding a customer, creating a customer, listing invoice items, or creating an invoice.

4. Token Storage

OAuth tokens are stored locally on the user's computer under the app's local configuration folder. Tokens are used to maintain the QuickBooks connection and refresh access when needed.

5. Sharing and Sale of Data

The app does not sell QuickBooks data. The app does not intentionally share QuickBooks data with third parties except as necessary to communicate with Intuit's QuickBooks Online API and to process user-requested actions through Codex.

6. Data Retention

The app does not maintain a separate business database of QuickBooks records. Local OAuth token files remain on the user's computer until deleted by the user or replaced during reconnection.

7. Revoking Access

You can revoke the app's QuickBooks access through your Intuit or QuickBooks account settings. You can also delete the local token files from the app's configuration folder.

8. Security

The app relies on Intuit OAuth for authorization. Users should protect their computer, environment variables, and local token files from unauthorized access.

9. Contact

For questions about this private app, contact the app owner or administrator responsible for the local installation.
