Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Account Information

When you create an account, we may collect:

• Email address
• Authentication information (via email/password, Google Sign-In, or Sign in with Apple)

We do not collect or store your Apple ID password or Google password.

1.2 Financial & App Data

To provide core functionality, we collect and store:

• Accounts, budgets, transactions, and expense-related data
• User-selected country and currency preferences

This data is stored securely in our backend (Supabase) and is used only to provide app functionality.

1.3 Receipt Images & OCR / AI Processing

Portofelo allows users to scan or upload receipts to extract expense information.

Receipt Images

• Receipt images are stored locally on the user's device.
• Images are temporarily transmitted to third-party services solely for processing.
• We do not store receipt images on our servers at this time.
• Receipt images are not linked to your identity by any third-party provider.

Receipt Processing

Receipt content may be processed using:

• Google Vision API – optical character recognition (OCR)
• OpenAI APIs – receipt parsing, data structuring, and smart expense categorization

Only the minimum data required to perform these operations is transmitted. No user identifiers are attached to this data during processing.

Extracted receipt information (such as merchant name, total, items, and categories) may be saved as expense data in your account.

Future paid features may allow optional cloud storage of receipt images. If introduced, this Privacy Policy will be updated accordingly.

1.4 Usage & Diagnostic Data

We collect minimal usage events (such as feature usage or app actions) and store them in our backend for:

• Improving app stability
• Understanding feature usage
• Debugging and performance monitoring

We do not use third-party analytics platforms (such as Firebase Analytics, Amplitude, or similar), and we do not track users across apps or websites.

2. How We Use Your Information
