Privacy Policy

Last Updated: September 20, 2026

Fisbo ("Application", "Platform", "Company", "We", "Us", or "Our") places great importance on the privacy and protection of our users' ("User", "You") personal data. This Privacy Policy outlines the scope of data collected, processed, and transferred while using the Fisbo mobile application and associated web services, as well as your rights regarding your data.

1. Information We Collect and Data Types
To provide our services to you, we may collect and process different categories of data depending on how you use the Application:

A. Registered Users:
• Account and Identity Information: First name, last name, email address, profile picture, and communication preferences provided during registration or profile creation.
• User Content and Receipt Data: Photos of bills/receipts captured via your camera or uploaded from your photo library for bill-splitting and expense-tracking purposes, including line items, prices, currencies, and expense notes.
• Group and Sharing Data: Expense groups you create, group members, and split amount calculations stored on our secure cloud servers.

B. Guest Users (Account-Free / Unregistered Mode):
• No Personal Identity Information: If you use Fisbo as a Guest without registering or logging in, we DO NOT collect, store, or process your name, email address, password, or profile photo on our cloud servers.
• Local Storage of Receipts: Any receipts, expense items, or bill splits you manually enter in Guest Mode are saved strictly on the local storage sandbox of your physical device (client-side storage). They are NOT uploaded to our remote database servers.

C. Technical and Diagnostic Data (All Users):
• IP address, device model, operating system version, unique device identifiers, crash logs, and general usage/navigation statistics collected for stability, security, fraud prevention, and performance monitoring.

2. Guest Mode & Local Device Storage
• Client-Side Persistence: In Guest Mode, your data remains completely decentralized and confined to your device. We do not maintain a cloud profile or personal ledger for guest users.
• Account Transition & Data Sync: If a Guest User subsequently chooses to register or log into an account, locally stored manual receipts will automatically and securely sync to their newly authenticated cloud account, making multi-device access possible.
• Data Deletion in Guest Mode: Since Fisbo does not retain transaction records of guest users on central servers, you can permanently delete all your guest data at any time simply by clearing the application data/cache in your device settings or by uninstalling the Application.

3. Google AdMob and Advertising Services
To offer core features of the application for free, Fisbo utilizes advertising technologies from Google AdMob and Google’s authorized advertising partners.

Google AdMob and third-party advertising networks may collect and process the following information to serve personalized or non-personalized advertisements tailored to your interests:
• Advertising Identifiers: Google Advertising ID (GAID) and Apple Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA).
• Device and Network Information: Device type, screen resolution, language settings, mobile network operator, and approximate (city/country-level) location data.
• Ad Interaction Data: Ads displayed, ad clicks, and view durations.
• Opting Out of Personalized Ads: You can reset your advertising identifier or disable personalized ad tracking at any time via your device settings (Android: Settings > Google > Ads; iOS: Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking).

4. Processing of Receipt Images and OCR Data
Receipt photos uploaded by registered users are processed exclusively through our AI-Powered Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology to extract text and separate expense items. Your receipt images are never sold, rented, or repurposed as marketing material for third parties. AI receipt scanning via camera or gallery is exclusive to registered accounts.

5. Purposes of Using Information
Collected personal and technical data is used for the following purposes:
• Seamlessly providing Fisbo services, bill-splitting, and receipt-scanning features,
• Managing user accounts, synchronizing guest data upon registration, and verifying security,
• Enhancing the accuracy of AI models and improving user experience,
• Debugging, server optimization, and analytical reporting,
• Managing ad delivery via Google AdMob,
• Fulfilling obligations arising from applicable legal regulations.

6. Data Security and Retention
Your data is protected using industry-standard security protocols (SSL/TLS encryption, secure database architecture, and strict access controls). However, please note that no company can guarantee 100% security for data transmission over the internet or electronic storage.

7. User Rights (GDPR & KVKK Compliance)
In accordance with GDPR, KVKK (Law No. 6698), and relevant international data protection laws, our users have the right to:
• Learn whether their personal data is being processed,
• Request information regarding processed data,
• Request the correction of incomplete or inaccurate data,
• Permanently delete their account and all associated cloud data (Account Deletion Request),
• For Guest Users: Delete all locally stored data immediately by uninstalling the application or clearing device app storage.
• Claim compensation for damages arising from unlawful processing of data.
