Boomer-ai is a comedy app made by Moola Money Ltd (“Moola”, “we”). This page says what happens to the words you type, in plain English. Last updated 21 September 2026.

Your question

When you ask the Boomer something, your question is sent over an encrypted connection to our server, which passes it to Google's Gemini API to write the answer. We use Google's paid API, whose terms say Google doesn't use what you send to train its models. We don't store your question or the answer: once the answer is on your screen, it's gone from our side. Our server logs record when the model fails, and which platform asked (web, iPhone or Android), never what you asked. The one exception is when you report an answer: then we keep that question and answer so we can look at what went wrong.

Please don't type personal details into the Boomer. It's a joke, and it doesn't need your real name, address or account numbers.

If a question sounds serious

If a question looks like someone might be in real trouble, the Boomer steps aside and shows UK support lines instead of a joke. That check runs on your device and on our server, and it isn't recorded.

Sharing a picture

When you share an answer as a picture, the answer text travels inside the picture's web address so our server can draw it. Anyone you send the picture or the link to can read the answer, so share what you're happy for others to see. The pictures aren't stored; they're drawn on request and cached for up to an hour so they load quickly.

The daily nudge (phone apps)

If you say yes, the phone app shows you one line from the Boomer each morning at 8:30am. The next fortnight of lines is scheduled on your phone itself; nothing is sent from our server and nothing about you is needed to do it. On Android, if you've also let the Boomer see your screen time, he may add one word about it at 8pm, worked out on your phone from the same numbers as the report. Switch either off in the app's Control Panel, or all of them in your phone's notification settings.

Screen time (Android app only)

If you choose to, the Android app can read how long you've spent on your phone and in each app, so the Boomer can tell you what he thinks of it. Android keeps this behind a switch called Usage access, which only you can turn on, in your phone's Settings. The numbers are read and added up on your phone and never leave it: they aren't sent to our server, to Google's Gemini, or to our analytics, and the screen-time report can't be shared. The Boomer only ever names well-known everyday apps. Time in anything else is never named: it's either added up with other apps of the same kind ("other games", "other social apps", going by the kind of app it says it is) or just counts towards the total, so apps that could say something private about you are never mentioned. To stop it, turn Usage access off for Boomer-ai in Settings. The iPhone app doesn't have this: iOS doesn't let apps read it.

Launch emails

If you signed up on our launch page, which has now closed, we keep your email address to tell you about Boomer-ai's launch, including our launch party. If you also tick the box for Moola's emails, you'll hear from Moola, the money guidance app that made Boomer-ai, too. The two are separate, and signing up for one never depends on the other. Nothing is sent until you've clicked the link in our confirmation email. The list is kept in Brevo (Sendinblue SAS, in France), which sends our emails, and we record what you agreed to and when. Every email has an unsubscribe link, and we keep your address until you use it or ask us to delete it.

If you get a ticket to Money Brunch Berlin on Luma, we copy your email address from Luma into Brevo to email you about the brunch itself (times, venue changes, the photos afterwards), and we delete it from that list once the brunch is over. Only if you ticked the box for news when you registered do we also send you the same confirmation email as the launch page, and nothing more happens unless you click it.

What we measure

We use PostHog to count what gets used: questions asked, share buttons tapped, the Moola link clicked, whether the daily nudge or screen time is switched on. Never the words of a nudge, never app names or usage times. On the website it sets no cookies and stores nothing about you in your browser, so every visit is a fresh anonymous visitor. The one thing the website does keep there is a note of which pop-ups you've closed, so they don't come back, and it's forgotten when you close the tab. To decide whether to mention our Berlin launch party, the website asks our host which country you're visiting from; the answer isn't stored or logged. In the phone apps it uses a random app-install ID. Vercel Web Analytics also counts the website's page views, without cookies. No advertising identifiers, no cross-app tracking, and nothing is sold.

To stop abuse, our hosting provider (Vercel) rate-limits requests by IP address and keeps request logs for a short time.

Moola

Under each answer there's a link to Moola, our money guidance app. Tapping it opens Moola's own website, which has its own privacy policy. Boomer-ai doesn't share anything with Moola about what you asked.

Children

Boomer-ai isn't aimed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect anything from them.

Your rights

Under UK data protection law you can ask what we hold about you, ask for it to be corrected or deleted, or complain to the Information Commissioner's Office. Because we don't keep your questions, there's usually nothing to hand over, but ask anyway: support@moola-money.com.
