Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2024-12-19

1. Introduction

YallaDone ("we," "our," or "us") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your information when you use our mobile application (the "App").

YallaDone is a local-first application, meaning your data is stored primarily on your device. We do not collect, transmit, or store your personal financial data on our servers.

2. Data We Collect

YallaDone operates as a local-first application. The following data is stored only on your device:

• Receipt images: Images you capture or upload for receipt splitting
• Split information: Details about splits, including people, items, and amounts
• Budget data: Your income, expenses, and budget categories
• Personal preferences: Settings, defaults, and app preferences
• Contact information: Names and phone numbers you manually enter for people in splits

We do not collect or store this information on our servers. All data remains on your device.

3. Data Storage and Security

All your data, including receipt images, split information, and budget data, is stored locally on your device using device storage and a local SQLite database.

You can control image retention in the app settings:

• Delete immediately after processing
• Keep for 7 days
• Keep forever

We do not transmit your financial data, receipt images, or personal information to our servers. However, we cannot guarantee absolute security, and you use the App at your own risk.

4. Third-Party Services

YallaDone uses the following third-party services that may collect certain information:

• Google Mobile Ads: Displays advertisements in the free version of the app. Google may collect advertising identifiers and usage data. Please review Google's Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
• Google ML Kit (Text Recognition): Used for OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to extract text from receipt images. Processing occurs on your device, and images are not sent to Google servers.
• App Store / Google Play: Handles in-app purchases. Payment information is processed by Apple/Google and is subject to their privacy policies.

5. Permissions

YallaDone may request the following permissions:

• Camera: To capture receipt images
• Photo Library: To select receipt images from your device
• Storage: To save receipt images locally on your device

All permissions are used solely for the stated purposes and no data is shared with third parties except as described in this policy.

6. Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties except:

• When you explicitly share information (e.g., sharing split details via WhatsApp or other sharing methods)
• As required by law or to protect our rights
• With service providers who assist in app functionality (e.g., Google Mobile Ads, payment processors), subject to their privacy policies

7. Your Rights

Since your data is stored locally on your device, you have full control:

• Access: All your data is accessible within the app
• Deletion: You can delete individual splits, budget entries, or use the "Clear All Data" option in settings
• Export: You can export your data through the app's export functionality
• Image Management: Control image retention settings as described in Section 3

8. Children's Privacy

YallaDone is not intended for children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have collected information from a child under 13, please contact us immediately.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any material changes by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this policy. Your continued use of the App after such changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
