Privacy Policy
Effective date: [TO BE UPDATED BEFORE LAUNCH]
1. Introduction
split ("we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information is collected when you use the split application ("App") or visit dosplit.app ("Site"), how that information is used, and your choices regarding your information.
By using the App or Site, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
2. Information You Enter into Temporary Rooms
When you use split to create or join an expense room, you may enter:
- Participant display names — names or labels used to identify people in a shared expense group. These do not need to be real names.
- Expense descriptions and amounts — the name, cost, and participant assignment of each shared expense you record.
- Room codes and sharing links — unique identifiers generated for each temporary room.
This data is used solely to calculate and display expense settlements within the room. It is not linked to any user account, identity, or persistent profile.
3. Automatic Data Deletion
Temporary rooms and all expense data associated with them are automatically deleted after a period of inactivity or upon room expiration. The specific retention period is [TO BE FINALIZED BEFORE LAUNCH]. After deletion, this data is not recoverable. You should copy or export your settlement summary before a room expires.
4. Device and Usage Information
When you use the App or Site, we or our service providers may automatically collect certain technical information, including:
- Device type, operating system version, and app version.
- General usage patterns, such as which features are used and how often.
- Crash reports and diagnostic information to help us identify and fix issues.
- IP address and general geographic region (country or region level).
This information is used to maintain and improve the App and is not used to identify individual users.
5. Analytics
We may use analytics tools to understand how the App is used in aggregate. The specific analytics provider(s) will be [FINALIZED BEFORE LAUNCH]. Any analytics data collected is aggregated and not linked to personally identifiable information. Where analytics are used, we will update this policy accordingly before launch.
6. Crash Reports
The App may automatically send crash reports to us or a third-party crash-reporting service when the App encounters an error. These reports may include information about device state at the time of the crash, but do not include expense data, participant names, or room contents.
7. Local Storage and Cookies
The App may use local device storage to retain temporary room state between sessions on the same device. The Site may use cookies or similar browser storage for basic site functionality. We do not use tracking cookies or cross-site advertising cookies.
8. App Store Information
When you download split through the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, those platforms may collect information in accordance with their own privacy policies. We do not control and are not responsible for the data practices of Apple or Google.
If you purchase a split Pro subscription through the App Store or Google Play, your payment is processed entirely by Apple or Google. We do not receive or store your payment card information.
9. Third-Party Services
When you share a settlement summary through a third-party messaging application (such as iMessage, WhatsApp, or Telegram), that sharing is governed by the privacy policy of that third-party service. We do not control how third-party services handle information you share with them.
10. No Bank Account Information
split does not collect, store, or access any bank account numbers, credit card numbers, debit card numbers, or any other financial account credentials. The App does not integrate with any banking or payment service.
11. Children's Privacy
split is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided information through the App, please contact us at [email protected] and we will take steps to delete such information.
12. Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the information handled by the App against unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.
Note: end-to-end encryption of room data is not currently implemented. Do not enter sensitive personal or financial information beyond what is necessary for expense tracking.
13. International Data Processing
If you access split from outside [JURISDICTION — TO BE COMPLETED BEFORE LAUNCH], your information may be processed in a country that has different data protection laws than your own. By using the App, you consent to such processing.
14. Your Choices
Because split does not require account creation, there is no profile to delete. Room data is automatically deleted upon expiration. You may stop using the App at any time.
If you have questions about data we may hold related to your use, contact us at [email protected].
15. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will indicate the effective date of the most recent revision at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Your continued use of the App after any changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
