Security & Privacy
Keep your financial data safe
Prism Wallet uses multiple layers of security to protect your account and financial information.
Biometric Authentication
Setting Up Face ID / Touch ID
- Go to Settings > Security
- Toggle Biometric Authentication on
- Confirm with your device's biometric sensor
Once enabled, you can unlock the app with your face or fingerprint instead of entering your password each time.
How It Works
- When you open the app after being away, you'll be prompted for biometric authentication
- If it fails, you can fall back to your password
- If you were recently active, the app won't prompt you again (smart bypass)
Disabling Biometrics
- Go to Settings > Security
- Toggle Biometric Authentication off
Session Management
Viewing Active Sessions
- Go to Settings > Security > Sessions
- See all devices where you're currently logged in
- Each session shows device type, last login time, and location
Logging Out of Other Devices
- Tap any session to end it
- Use Log Out All Sessions to sign out everywhere except your current device
Password Management
Changing Your Password
- Go to Settings > Profile > Change Password
- Enter your current password
- Enter and confirm your new password
- Save changes
Forgot Password
- On the login screen, tap Forgot Password
- Enter your email address
- Check your email for a reset link
- Create a new password
Data Security
Bank Connection Security
- Credentials are handled directly by Plaid, never stored by Prism
- Plaid uses bank-level 256-bit AES encryption
- Your bank login is never visible to Prism
On-Device Security
- Sensitive tokens are stored in your device's secure enclave
- All data in transit is encrypted via TLS/HTTPS
- Authentication tokens are encrypted on-device
Auto-Lock
The app locks after a period of inactivity. You'll need to re-authenticate to access your data.
Deleting Your Account
To permanently delete your account and all data:
- Go to Settings > Profile
- Tap Delete Account
- Review the warning about what will be deleted
- Type "Delete" to confirm
- Your account and all data will be permanently removed
This cannot be undone. All connections will be disconnected and data deleted from our servers.
Privacy Tips
- Enable biometric authentication for fast, secure access
- Review active sessions regularly and log out of unrecognized devices
- Use a strong, unique password
- Keep your device's operating system updated
