Privacy policy
Your group’s data should stay your group’s data.
Who operates the app
Split With Friends is operated by Giancarlo Byrne, a sole proprietor.
Guest groups
Groups created without signing in are stored on your device. They are not synchronized to our cloud services unless you sign in and choose to move a group online.
Online groups and accounts
When you sign in, Google or Apple provides account identifiers and basic profile information. Firebase stores the group membership, expenses, payments, recurring-expense settings, invitations, and account state needed to synchronize the service.
Receipt scanning
Guest receipt scans use on-device text recognition. For eligible online Pro groups, a selected receipt image is sent through a protected server function to Google Gemini for extraction. The image is processed to return receipt fields and is not stored in the group database. Review extracted values before saving.
Purchases
Apple processes payments. RevenueCat processes subscription and purchase status and provides the entitlement state used to unlock Pro features. We do not receive full payment-card details.
Analytics and diagnostics
Firebase Analytics records limited feature events, and Firebase Crashlytics receives crash diagnostics. Analytics events are designed not to include expense names, receipt contents, or member names.
Sharing and service providers
Online group information is visible to authorized members of that group. We use Apple, Google, Firebase, RevenueCat, and Google Gemini only as needed to provide authentication, storage, purchases, analytics, diagnostics, and receipt extraction. We do not sell personal information.
Retention and deletion
You can delete local guest data or request account deletion from the account menu. Account deletion removes the authentication account and personal account records. Shared financial history may be anonymized and retained where needed so remaining group members’ balances remain internally consistent.
Children
The service is not directed to children under 13.
Changes and questions
Material changes will be reflected by updating the effective date. Questions and privacy requests can be submitted through the support page.
