This Privacy Policy explains what information Splitcost uses to run shared expense groups, how that data is stored, and what choices you have. We aim to collect only the information needed to help groups track expenses, balances, and settlements.

1. Information We Collect

Splitcost collects the information required to create and manage shared expense groups:

Group names, member names, and currency preferences
Expense entries such as descriptions, amounts, payers, and participants
Technical and analytics data that helps us improve performance and usability

2. How We Store Your Data

Group and expense data may be stored locally on your device and on secure third-party infrastructure so shared group links work across devices and sessions. We use reasonable technical safeguards to protect data in transit and at rest, but no internet-based system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

3. Third-Party Services

We may use third-party services that support the product, such as:

Analytics (Google Analytics)
Hosting, database, and infrastructure providers
Email and support tooling when you contact us

These providers may process limited technical or usage data on our behalf as described in their own privacy policies.

4. Cookies

Splitcost may use cookies or similar technologies for analytics, session continuity, and product functionality. You can manage many of these preferences through your browser settings.

5. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

Request access to the data associated with your use of the service
Delete expense data that you control
Limit analytics through browser controls or privacy tools

6. Policy Updates

We may update this Privacy Policy when the product, legal requirements, or data practices change. Continued use of the service after an update means the revised policy applies.
