How we verify
MoneySweep aggregates 7 government-listed sources of unclaimed money for Americans. We do not invent the data. The data is public. We make it findable in one place.
The 7 sources
What we do not do
- We do not collect, store, or process Social Security numbers on intake
- We do not charge a finder fee or take a percentage of money you recover
- We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information
- We do not impersonate any government agency or imply official endorsement
Methodology
For each search, MoneySweep cross-references the same identifying information against the relevant agency database, mirrors the agency's own match logic where published, and surfaces only matches the user can verify against the original source. When a match needs additional documentation to claim, we walk the user through what that agency requires, in plain language.
Data handling
- Encryption at rest (Postgres + AES-256) and in transit (TLS 1.3)
- Audit trail of every search request and consent action
- Right to export and delete: any user can request both via privacy@moneysweep.co
- GLBA-aligned for any sensitive financial information processed inside the authenticated app (intake page does not collect any)
What this page is not
This is a working draft of our verification methodology. Before the full product launches, this page will be expanded with: independent audit references, per-source coverage statistics, the audit log retention policy, and the contact for our data protection officer. Bookmark and check back.
