Debt Note privacy policy

Effective October 3, 2026. Support: theintelligenz.dev@gmail.com.

Your ledger and optional cloud account

Debt Note stores the names and labels you enter, debts, currencies, dates, descriptions, notes and payment history in SQLite on your device. Guest data stays local unless you choose to link it to Google. Google/Firebase Authentication identifies signed-in users by account ID and email; a profile may include display name and image. Debt Note does not receive your Google password. Linked records are transmitted over encrypted connections to Google Cloud Firestore for backup and sync, with per-account access rules. Google processes its services under its privacy policy.

Currency suggestion

During setup, the Android app suggests your country’s currency from the country of your SIM card or mobile network, read on your phone. No location permission is requested, and Debt Note stores only the suggested currency. You can always choose a currency manually.

Other information

Records are used for balances, history, sync and local reminders. PIN and biometric checks stay on your device. The app has no advertising or analytics SDK and does not sell information. CSV exports are unencrypted files shared only at your request; keep them secure. Operating-system and Google services may process technical information needed to provide their services.

Retention and deletion

Local records remain until you remove them or clear app storage. Sync uses deletion markers so offline devices do not restore deleted entries. Use Settings → Delete account in the app to confirm permanent deletion, verify your app lock if enabled, and reauthenticate with Google. This removes your Firebase Authentication account, cloud ledger and associated local records on that phone. The process requires internet; if interrupted, retry to finish. You can also delete your cloud account on this website after Google verification without reinstalling the app.

After deletion, a minimal blocked-account identifier and deletion timestamp are retained to deny stale clients access and prevent resurrection. This contains no ledger data. Ordinary infrastructure backups are subject to the hosting provider’s retention. Other offline device copies and exports cannot be erased remotely: clear app storage and delete unwanted exports yourself. Your Google account is not deleted. Guest-only users can erase local records by clearing app storage.
