Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 25, 2026
This policy describes how the Splik app ("Splik", "we", "us") handles your information. Splik is a personal-finance tracking tool — it never moves, holds, or has access to your actual money.
1. Information We Collect
- Account information: your name, phone number, and email address when you sign up.
- Expense data: descriptions, amounts, dates, categories, and who's involved in each expense or settlement you log.
- Receipt photos: images you choose to attach to an expense.
- Contacts (optional): if you grant permission, we read your device contacts only to help you find and add friends who already use Splik. You can always add a friend manually by typing their name and number instead — contacts access is never required.
- Device & usage data: basic information needed to deliver push notifications and keep the app secure (e.g. device token, app version).
2. How We Use Your Information
- To calculate balances and settlements between you and the people you split expenses with.
- To sync your groups and friends across devices tied to your account.
- To send notifications about new expenses, settlements, or account activity (you can turn these off in Profile → Notifications).
- To restore your data if you reinstall the app and log back in with the same account.
3. Who Can See Your Data
Your friend list is private — only you can see it. The people you split an expense with can only see the details of that specific shared expense; nothing else in your account is ever visible to them. We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with advertisers or data brokers.
4. Where Your Data Is Stored
Splik stores data using Firebase, Google's cloud application infrastructure. Data is transmitted and stored using Firebase's standard encryption in transit and at rest. Biometric login (fingerprint / Face ID) is handled entirely by your device's operating system — Splik never receives or stores your biometric data.
5. Your Choices & Rights
- You can edit or delete individual expenses at any time from your Activity tab.
- You can revoke contacts permission at any time from your device settings without losing app functionality.
- You can turn off any category of notification from Profile → Notifications.
- You can request deletion of your account and associated data by contacting us at the email below.
6. Data Retention
We retain your account and expense data for as long as your account is active, so that your history is available if you reinstall the app. If you request account deletion, we will delete your personal data within a reasonable time, except where retention is required by law.
7. Children's Privacy
Splik is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date above.
