Not that you should have to, but words like "Home Budget and Finance Tracking" would make it more clear what it is. Lead with that generic terminology. Then sprinkle in the "encryption" stuff.
Leading with "Encryption" and "Finance" is probably what caused the ban. It got put in the bucket of "shady crypto currency stuff" or "internet money laundering".
Though, yes, it's a shame the system doesn't first issue a warning, and let you reply with a message to a real human with context before a ban happens.

Hi! Author's here.
We submitted multiple appeals, but they were all declines — presumably, by real humans.
I appreciate your feedback on the copy though. I guess, no harm in trying.
