ShiftSplit
Privacy Policy
ShiftSplit is a local-first budgeting and tracking tool. This policy explains what stays on your device, what optional account and cloud features store, and the choices available to you.
Effective and last updated: May 31, 2026
Who this policy covers
This Privacy Policy applies to the ShiftSplit website, progressive web app, and iOS app. In this policy, “ShiftSplit,” “we,” and “us” refer to the ShiftSplit service. Questions can be sent to support@useshiftsplit.com.
Local-first by default
Your budgeting setup is saved on your browser or device. You can use local mode without creating an account. Local data can include buckets, accounts, balances, income or money entries, shift details, payout details, Split Plans, goals, notes, theme choices, a local nickname, and manual backup files you export.
You can manually export or import a ShiftSplit backup for recovery. You choose when to do that.
Optional account and Cloud Save
If you create an account, we collect your email address and an account identifier to provide sign-in, account access, and support. Supabase provides authentication and cloud database services for these features. Authentication emails may be delivered through Resend.
Paid and lifetime accounts can use Auto Cloud Save for meaningful setup changes. Cloud data can contain the same categories of budgeting information you choose to store locally, such as buckets, accounts, balances, entries, shift and payout details, Split Plans, goals, notes, theme choices, and a local nickname.
Manual Cloud Snapshot remains available as an advanced recovery tool. Restore is always an explicit action: ShiftSplit does not silently overwrite your local setup from the cloud.
Billing
Web Lifetime purchases are processed by Stripe. iOS Lifetime purchases are processed through Apple In-App Purchase and RevenueCat. We may receive billing-related information such as customer identifiers, purchase history, product identifiers, store, and entitlement status. ShiftSplit does not store your full payment-card number. Stripe purchase buttons and external checkout links are hidden inside the iOS app.
Support and basic technical data
If you contact support, we receive the email address and message content you choose to send. Hosting, security, and email-delivery providers may also process basic technical information such as IP address, browser or device information, timestamps, requested URLs, and email-delivery status as part of operating and protecting the service.
Service providers and disclosure
We use service providers to operate ShiftSplit. They process information only for the services they provide, subject to their own terms and privacy practices.
- Supabase: authentication and optional cloud storage.
- Vercel: website and server-route hosting.
- Stripe: web Lifetime purchase processing and billing support.
- RevenueCat: iOS purchase entitlement processing.
- Resend: delivery of authentication emails.
- Apple and TestFlight: iOS distribution, testing, and platform services where applicable.
We do not sell personal information. We do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. ShiftSplit does not currently include third-party advertising trackers.
What ShiftSplit does not provide
- No bank linking or bank-account access.
- No money movement, transfers, or custody of funds.
- No financial, investment, tax, or legal advice.
- No investing or brokerage service.
How information is used
We use information to provide the app, authenticate accounts, save and restore cloud data when enabled, process purchases, respond to support requests, protect the service, troubleshoot errors, and comply with legal obligations.
Retention and your choices
Local data stays on your browser or device until you erase it, clear browser or app storage, uninstall the app, or replace it through an explicit restore or import action. Cloud account data is retained while your account remains open unless you delete your account. Some providers may retain limited records, such as payment, delivery, security, or server logs, according to their own retention practices and applicable law.
You can review and update your budgeting data in the app, export a manual backup, or delete your account from Profile. If you need help accessing, correcting, exporting, or deleting account-related information, email support@useshiftsplit.com.
Deleting your account
Signed-in users can start account deletion from Profile. Deleting your cloud account removes associated ShiftSplit cloud data. If an active legacy Stripe web subscription is associated with your account, ShiftSplit attempts to cancel it before deleting the cloud account. Local device data is separate and is kept by default unless you explicitly choose to erase it from that device.
Children
ShiftSplit is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us so we can review and delete it.
Do Not Track and privacy signals
ShiftSplit does not currently use third-party advertising trackers or respond differently to browser Do Not Track signals. If our practices materially change, we will update this policy and the “last updated” date above.
Security
We use reasonable safeguards designed to protect account and cloud data. No internet service or storage method can be guaranteed completely secure, so keep a manual export if you need an additional recovery copy.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as ShiftSplit changes. Material changes will be posted here with a revised effective date and, when appropriate, communicated through the app or by email.
