Automatic Data Saving

The app automatically saves your expense data locally whenever you:

• Add or edit a person
• Add, edit, or remove an expense
• Clear all data

This ensures your data persists between app sessions without any manual intervention.

Data Sharing

We do not share any data because:

• We do not collect any personal information
• We do not have access to your data
• All information remains on your device

The app includes a "Share Report" feature that allows you to share expense reports through your device's native sharing functionality. When you use this feature:

• You control what information is shared
• You choose which app or service to share with
• The sharing is handled by your device's operating system, not by our app

Permissions

The app may request the following permissions:

• Storage Access: To save and export expense reports to your device

These permissions are optional and only used when you explicitly choose to save or share reports.

Third-Party Services & Monetization

Our app uses third-party services that may collect information used to identify you in order to deliver ads and process in-app transactions:

• Google AdMob (Advertising): We use Google AdMob to display non-intrusive advertisements on free tier screens. Google AdMob may collect device identifiers (such as Android Advertising ID), IP address, and general location data to serve relevant ads. You can learn more about Google's privacy practices at Google Privacy & Terms and manage personalized ad preferences at Google Ad Settings.
• Google Play Billing (In-App Purchases & Subscriptions): We use official Google Play Billing Library (v8.0+) to process optional Pro subscriptions (₹49/year) and lifetime purchases (₹149 one-time) to remove advertisements. All payment processing, authentication, and transactional data are handled securely and directly by Google Play. We do not collect or store your credit card, bank, or financial details.

Children's Privacy

Our app does not knowingly collect any personal information from children under 13. The app can be safely used by people of all ages as it does not collect any personal data.

• Your data is as secure as your device
• We recommend using your device's built-in security features (PIN, password, biometric locks)
• We have no access to your data, even if we wanted to
