Privacy Policy

Introduction

ExpenseEasy AI ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your information when you use our mobile application. Our app is designed with privacy-first principles, storing your financial data locally on your device.

Information We Do NOT Collect

We do not collect or store:

• Receipt images or photos
• Transaction data or financial information
• Account information or personal details
• App preferences and settings
• Any personally identifiable information

All your financial data remains stored locally on your device and is never transmitted to our servers.

Information We Collect

Anonymous Analytics

We collect anonymized usage analytics through Firebase Analytics to help us improve the app. This includes:

• App usage patterns (anonymized)
• Device information (model, operating system)
• Crash reports and performance data
• Feature usage statistics (anonymized)

This data is completely anonymous and cannot be linked back to you or your financial information.

AI Processing

When you scan receipts or documents, the image data is sent to OpenAI's API for text extraction and categorization. This processing happens in real-time and:

• Images are processed temporarily and not stored by OpenAI
• Only the extracted text data is returned to your device
• No personal information is included in API requests
• All communication is encrypted and secure

Please refer to OpenAI's privacy policy for more information about their data handling practices.

How We Use Information

The anonymous analytics data we collect is used solely to:

• Improve app functionality and user experience
• Identify and fix bugs or performance issues
• Understand which features are most useful
• Make informed decisions about app development

Data Storage and Security

Local Storage: All your financial data, including receipts, transactions, and insights, is stored locally on your device. We have no access to this information.

Security: The app uses industry-standard encryption for all API communications with OpenAI. Your device's built-in security features protect your locally stored data.

Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services:

• OpenAI API: For receipt text extraction and categorization
• Firebase Analytics: For anonymous usage analytics

These services have their own privacy policies that govern their data handling practices.

Your Control

Since all your financial data is stored locally on your device:

• You have complete control over your data
• Deleting the app removes all your data
• No data recovery is possible once the app is deleted
• We cannot access or retrieve your data

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date.
