Collecting and Using Your Data
Privacy at a Glance
- In the App (default): Your spend history, bank alerts, map locations, and AI chats stay on Your Device. Klippa does not upload your personal financial data to Our servers.
- Website / Support: We may receive Your email address if You voluntarily join our waitlist at https://myklippa.com or email us for support.
- TestFlight beta rewards (when offered): If You choose to submit testing feedback through the in-app survey in a TestFlight or development build, that survey may collect Your email address solely so We can deliver a promotional voucher or similar third-party credit of whatever face value and issuer We state for that programme, if Your submission is approved. That email is not used to create an account, is not used for marketing identify, and is not attached to anonymous product analytics events.
What Stays on Your Device (Default)
Klippa is designed to process your financial information locally on your Device. It reads Apple Pay and Wallet taps, as well as bank SMS or email alerts already on your Device.
The following information never leaves your Device and is not stored on our servers:
- Your transactions, merchant names, and spend amounts.
- Bank alerts and spend totals.
- Maps of your taps and detected subscriptions.
- Questions and answers from the optional on-device conversational AI feature.
Types of Data Collected
Personal Data (Website, Support, and optional beta reward survey)
While using Our Service, We may ask You to provide Us with certain personally identifiable information that can be used to contact or identify You. Personally identifiable information is limited to:
- Email Address: Collected if You join our website waitlist (to send launch notices), if You contact support, or if You voluntarily submit it in a TestFlight / development testing-feedback survey for delivery of an approved promotional voucher only (value and issuer as stated for that programme).
Usage Data and Analytics (Anonymous)
Usage Data is collected automatically when using the Service.
- Product Analytics: We use a Service Provider (PostHog) to collect anonymous, aggregated product events (such as onboarding screens viewed). Product analytics events contain no names, no email addresses, no transaction amounts, no merchant names, and no Apple ID identifiers. We do not record or replay sessions of your spend screens.
- Testing-feedback survey (TestFlight / development only): When a beta reward programme is active, feedback text and an email you enter in that survey are stored as survey responses so We can review feedback and, if approved, send a voucher. We do not call PostHog identify() or attach email to ordinary product events.
Purchases
If You subscribe to the Application, payments are processed directly by Apple. We use a Service Provider (RevenueCat) to receive anonymous purchase and entitlement status data. We do not receive Your full card numbers or spend journal.
Use of Your Data
We use the collected information only for the following purposes:
- To send waitlist notifications and TestFlight invitations.
- To analyze anonymous Usage Data to improve the Application.
- To manage anonymous subscription statuses.
- To provide customer support when You contact Us.
- To review TestFlight testing feedback and deliver approved promotional vouchers to the email You provided for that purpose (and related operational emails such as "under review").
Data Retention and International Data Transfers
- App Data: On-device data is retained until You delete the Application from Your Device.
- Waitlist and Support Data: We retain your email until you unsubscribe, ask to be removed, or your support inquiry is resolved.
- Beta reward survey Data: Feedback and voucher-delivery emails are retained for the duration of the programme and a reasonable period afterward for fraud prevention, accounting, and to honour deletion requests, then deleted or anonymised.
- International Processing: As a global service, We and Our Service Providers (like Apple, RevenueCat, and PostHog) may store or process information outside of your home country. By using the Service, You acknowledge that your data may be transferred to international servers operating under strict privacy safeguards.
Security of Your Personal Data
The security of Your Personal Data is important to Us, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While We strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect Your Personal Data, We cannot guarantee its absolute security. Because your primary financial data (spend history, transactions) is stored exclusively on Your Device, its security is heavily reliant on your Device's built-in security features.
Children's Privacy
Our Service is a financial tool and does not address anyone under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 18. If You are a parent or guardian and You are aware that Your child has provided Us with Personal Data, please contact Us so We can take steps to remove that information.
Your Global Privacy Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction (including under POPIA, GDPR, UK GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, and other privacy laws), You have rights regarding your Personal Data, including:
- Right to Access / Know: You may request details about the limited Personal Data We hold about You.
- Right to Deletion: You can ask us to delete your waitlist email, support history, or beta reward survey email (deleting the Application automatically deletes all on-device financial data).
- Right to Correction: You may request that We update any inaccurate Personal Data.
- Right to Object / Restrict: You may request that We limit how We process your waitlist or voucher-delivery email.
- Right to Complain: You have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection regulator.
