Privacy Policy
Last Updated: October 12, 2026
Expense Tracker ("Expense Tracker", "we", "us", or "our") is a personal expense management application designed to help users record, organize, and understand their personal expenses.
This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use that information, and how users can control their information when using Expense Tracker.
1. Information We Collect
Depending on how you use Expense Tracker, we may collect the following information.
Account Information
- Name
- Email address
- Profile photo when provided through Google Sign-In
Information Provided During Expense Tracking
- Expense amount
- Expense date
- Expense description or related information
- Payment method
- Bank account information provided by the user
- IFSC information provided by the user
- Credit card information provided by the user
2. Email and Google Account Access
Expense Tracker provides an optional feature that allows users to connect their Google email account for expense tracking.
When a user chooses this feature, Expense Tracker requests permission from Google to access the user's email account with read-only access.
This permission is used only to identify emails that may contain financial transaction or expense-related information.
3. What We Extract From Emails
Expense Tracker processes relevant emails to identify useful expense information.
The application may extract information such as:
- Transaction or merchant information
- Transaction amount
- Transaction date
- Expense description
- Other information necessary for identifying an expense
Expense Tracker stores the extracted expense information needed to provide its expense tracking functionality.
Expense Tracker does not permanently store complete email messages.
4. Why We Use Google Email Access
Google email access is used to help users automatically identify financial transactions and reduce the amount of manual expense entry required.
The feature is completely optional. Users may continue using Expense Tracker without connecting their Google email account.
5. Google OAuth Information
When a user signs in using Google, Expense Tracker may receive basic profile information authorized by the user, such as the user's name, email address, and profile photo.
Google authentication is used to securely authenticate the user's account and provide access to the Expense Tracker application.
6. Access Tokens and Refresh Tokens
When a user authorizes optional Google email access, Expense Tracker may receive an access token and refresh token from Google.
These credentials are used to maintain authorized access to the Google account according to the permissions granted by the user. They are not used for purposes unrelated to the functionality described in this Privacy Policy.
7. How We Use Information
We use collected information to:
- Create and manage user accounts.
- Authenticate users.
- Allow users to record expenses.
- Organize expenses by payment method.
- Manage bank and credit card information provided by users.
- Identify relevant financial transactions from connected email accounts.
- Calculate expense totals and summaries.
- Provide and improve Expense Tracker functionality.
8. Data Sharing
Expense Tracker does not sell or share users' personal information or expense information with third parties for advertising or marketing purposes.
Information is used to provide the Expense Tracker service and its features.
9. Data Retention
We retain user account information and extracted expense information until the user deletes their Expense Tracker account, unless a longer retention period is required by applicable law.
When a user deletes their account, we will delete the associated account and stored expense information according to our deletion process.
10. Disconnecting Google Access
Users can stop providing Google email access to Expense Tracker by revoking the application's access through their Google account settings.
Users may also contact us if they need assistance with disconnecting their Google account or deleting their Expense Tracker account.
11. Security
We take reasonable measures to protect information handled by Expense Tracker against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
However, no internet-based service can guarantee absolute security.
12. Children's Privacy
Expense Tracker is not intended for children under the age required by applicable law to independently use online services.
13. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the application or applicable legal requirements.
Any updated Privacy Policy will be published on this page with an updated effective date.
