This Privacy Policy describes how "Expense Note" ("we", "our", or "the App") collects, uses, and shares your information when you use our mobile application.
1. Information We Collect
A. No Personal Data Collected
Expense Note is a fully offline, on-device application. We do not collect, transmit, or store any personal information on external servers. All your expense records, categories, and settings remain exclusively on your device.
B. Locally Stored Data
The following data is stored only on your device using an embedded local database (Hive):
- Expense and income records (amount, category, date, note)
- Custom spending categories you create
- App settings (currency, display name, notification preferences)
- Profile photo (if you choose to set one)
C. No Analytics or Crash Reporting
Expense Note does not use Firebase Analytics, Firebase Crashlytics, or any other third-party analytics or crash reporting service.
D. No Advertising
Expense Note contains no advertisements. We do not use AdMob or any advertising SDK.
2. How We Use Information
Because we collect no data, there is nothing to share or sell. All data you enter into the app is used solely to provide the app's features to you, locally on your device:
- Displaying your expense history and totals
- Generating analytics charts (sunburst, monthly bar chart, 30-day mini chart)
- Producing PDF and CSV export reports
- Scheduling local push notifications (daily digest, weekly insights, monthly summary)
3. Data Sharing
We do not share your data with anyone. There are no third-party SDKs in this app that receive your personal or financial information.
4. Exports
When you export a report as PDF or CSV, the file is saved directly to your device's local storage (Downloads folder). We do not have access to these files and they are never uploaded anywhere.
5. Permissions
- Notifications: Used to deliver local on-device reminders. No notification content is sent to any server.
- Storage / Files: Required to save exported PDF and CSV reports to your Downloads folder.
- Camera / Gallery: Only accessed if you choose to set a profile photo. The photo is stored locally on your device.
6. Data Retention and Deletion
All your data lives on your device. You are in full control:
- Delete individual records: Swipe to delete any expense or income entry inside the app.
- Delete all data: Clearing the App Data in your Android Settings will permanently remove all locally stored records, categories, and preferences.
- Uninstall: Uninstalling the app permanently deletes all associated data from your device.
7. Children's Privacy
Expense Note does not knowingly collect any information from anyone, including children under 13. Since no data is collected at all, there is no risk of inadvertent collection from minors.
8. Changes to This Policy
If we update this Privacy Policy, the revised version will be posted on this page with an updated date. Continued use of the app after any changes constitutes acceptance of the new policy.
