Privacy Policy

What information Tabsy handles

1. Data you enter into the app

This includes tab names, participant names, expense amounts, categories, notes, dates, receipt photos, and settled-debt records.

Where it lives:in a local database (SwiftData) on your device. If you have iCloud enabled for Tabsy in iOS Settings, this data also syncs through Apple’s CloudKit to your other Apple devices signed in to the same iCloud account.

Who can access it: you, on devices signed in to your iCloud account. Apple operates the CloudKit infrastructure under their privacy terms; we have no access to it. We do not have a server.

2. Settings stored on-device

A few preferences are saved in iOS user defaults: your display name, default currency, and a flag indicating whether you’ve completed onboarding.

Why: to remember your preferences between launches.

3. Receipt photos

If you attach a receipt to an expense, the image is downsized and stored alongside the expense in the local database (and synced via iCloud if enabled). The original image stays in your Photos library — Tabsy only stores its own resized copy.

Permissions used:Tabsy requests access to your Photo library only when you tap “Attach photo.” You can revoke this at any time in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Photos → Tabsy.

What information Tabsy does NOT collect

• No analytics events
• No crash reports leaving your device (other than Apple’s standard diagnostics, which you control in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Analytics & Improvements)
• No advertising identifiers
• No location data
• No contact list access
• No camera access (we only use the Photos picker, not the camera directly)
• No microphone, health, motion, or any other sensor data

Apple’s role

When you download Tabsy through the App Store, Apple may collect information about your transaction subject to Apple’s Privacy Policy. When you enable iCloud sync, your synced data is subject to Apple’s iCloud terms.

Tabsy itself does not communicate with any servers we control.

Children

Tabsy does not target children under 13. We do not knowingly collect any information from children. If you believe a child has used Tabsy and you have concerns about their data, note that all data is on the child’s device— you can erase it via the in-app “Erase all data” option in Profile, or by deleting the app.

Your choices and rights

• Stop syncing: disable Tabsy in iOS Settings → [your name] → iCloud → Apps using iCloud.
• Delete everything from this device:open the app → Profile → Reset → “Erase all data” (two-step confirmation). This wipes the local database and resets your preferences.
• Delete from iCloud: sign in to iCloud.com → Account Settings → look for Tabsy and delete its data. Or delete the app on every signed-in device and turn off Tabsy iCloud sync.
• Request information:since we don’t operate any servers and don’t collect any data, there’s nothing for us to export or delete on your behalf. Everything lives in places you control (your device, your iCloud).
