NextERPPrivacy policy
Last updated 9 November 2026. This covers the NextERP desktop app and this website.
This program will not transfer any information to other networked systems unless specifically requested by the user or the person installing or operating it. The app has no analytics, telemetry, crash reporting or advertising, and the project runs no server that receives your business data.
Where the app connects, and why
| Where | When | What is sent |
|---|---|---|
| The ERPNext site you sign in to | Whenever you use the app | Your email and password when you sign in, then the records you open, search, create or change. This is the server you chose; its owner's privacy policy applies to what it keeps. |
| GitHub (github.com) | About every six hours, to check for a new version | An ordinary web request for the latest release's description. Nothing about you or your data is included; GitHub sees your IP address, as with any download (GitHub's privacy statement). An update is installed only when you choose to restart for it. |
| Nergaa Cloud (cloud.nergaa.cloud) | Only if you choose Create a site, or open your plan and billing | Your email address, name, country, the site name and company you choose, and the plan. Payments open on the payment provider's own page. Nergaa Cloud's privacy policy applies. |
Links you open from the app (ERPNext Desk, a KRA receipt check, a payment page) open in your web browser or in a window of that site, and go only where the link says.
Features that run on your ERPNext site
Some features are done by your ERPNext site, not by the app, and follow that site's settings:
- The assistant. Questions go to your site. If its administrator turned the assistant on, the site sends the question and the records it reads to the AI provider the administrator chose.
- KRA eTIMS (Kenya). Invoices are sent to the Kenya Revenue Authority by your site, if its administrator set it up.
- M-PESA at the till. Payment requests go from your site to Safaricom, with the customer's phone number you type in.
What stays on your computer
The app keeps, in its data folder (see install and uninstall): your session with the site, a copy of the records the site lets you read (for instant lists and search, and for reading offline), drafts you keep on the computer, and your settings. The copy is cleared when another person signs in on the same computer. Uninstalling and deleting the data folder removes everything.
This website
This website sets no cookies and uses no analytics or third-party fonts. To show the latest version and its files, your browser asks GitHub's API (api.github.com) for the latest release, so GitHub sees your IP address. The server hosting this website keeps standard access logs (IP address, page, time) for up to 14 days, for security.
Open-source components
The app is built with open-source components, including Tauri, Vue and SQLite. None of them send data on their own. On Windows the app draws its window with Microsoft Edge WebView2, part of Windows, which follows Microsoft's privacy statement.
