The short version: ExTrdoesn’t track you and doesn’t collect your data. It’s a manual expense tracker — everything you enter lives in a private database on your own device. There’s nothing for us to sell, because we never gather it in the first place.
Last updated: 9 July 2026 · Version 1.0 · Reflects the M1 release. This summary is written plainly; the sections below are the full policy.
1 · What we collect
ExTr collects no personal data on any server. The developer operates no server or cloud database for ExTr— none exists. Everything in the app is entered manually by you and stored only on your device (see §3): expense amounts, descriptions, dates and categories; savings goals and amounts you set aside; recurring-bill templates; and any “money owed to me” records, which can include a contact name you type in yourself.
Because the app makes no network requests of its own, none of this is transmitted to the developer or to anyone else.
ExTr is intended for adults and is not directed at children; we set a minimum age of 18. As we hold no data about you, we do not knowingly collect data from anyone, including children.
2 · What we don't do
To be concrete, ExTr does not:
- Run any analytics or telemetry — first-party or third-party. It does not track usage, log events, count feature use, collect metrics, or report crashes to anyone.
- Show advertising, use advertising identifiers, or include any ad SDK.
- Include any third-party SDK that collects or transmits data — no analytics, advertising, crash-reporting or telemetry SDKs (for example, none of Firebase / Google Analytics, Crashlytics, Sentry, Amplitude, Segment, Mixpanel, AppsFlyer, Adjust, or the Meta SDK).
- Connect to banks or cards, read your SMS/texts, scan your email, or scan photos/receipts — there is no automatic import of transactions of any kind.
- Have accounts or logins.
- Have payments, subscriptions, or in-app purchases.
- Use any artificial-intelligence service or on-device machine-learning model. The goal-motivation coaching runs entirely on your device using fixed calculations and pre-written sentence templates, and sends nothing anywhere.
- Sell or share your data. There is nothing to sell, because we never collect it.
3 · Where your data lives
Your data is stored locally on your own device, in a private database file (SQLite) on that phone. Nothing is stored on any server or cloud operated by the developer.
- On iPhone/iPad, the database lives in the app’s private App Group container — accessible only to ExTr and its own home-screen widget on the same device (so the widget can show your daily total). It is not accessible to other apps and is not sent anywhere.
- On Android, the database lives in the app’s private internal storage sandbox, accessible only to ExTr on that device.
Because the app stores only your raw entries and recalculates every total on the fly, there is no separate copy of your data anywhere else.
One honest nuance — device backups. ExTr does not run its own backup or sync. But because your data sits in a standard app location and ExTr does not disable operating-system backups, your own device backup will include ExTr’s data by default — your iCloud backup on iOS, or your Google account backup (Android Auto Backup) and device-to-device transfers on Android. That backup is strictly between you and Apple/Google, under your own account and their terms. The developer has no access to it and is not a party to it. You can turn it off in your device settings.
4 · Permissions
ExTr requests no permissions for its features. It does not ask for or use notifications, location/GPS, camera, contacts, photos or media library, microphone, or SMS/text access, and it shows you no permission prompts.
A few low-level entries appear in the app’s technical manifests purely as defaults added by the app framework (React Native / Expo) and development tooling — for example, on Android: internet, external-storage, a “draw over other apps” flag, and vibration; on iOS: a local-network description used only by a developer tool. None of these are used by any feature to collect personal data; they are noted here for full transparency.
5 · Your rights & deletion
Because ExTr keeps no data about you on any server, there is nothing on our side to access, correct, export, or delete — your data lives entirely under your control on your device.
You can edit or delete any entry inside the app at any time. To remove everything, delete the app: that removes ExTr’s on-device database. Data already included in your own iCloud or Google backup is governed by Apple’s or Google’s terms and your device settings — you control those backups, and the developer cannot access them. If you have questions about your data, contact us (see §6).
6 · Changes & contact
If this policy changes, we will post the new version on this page and update the “Last updated” date above. This version reflects ExTr’s M1 release, which is local-only with no accounts and no backend; a future release that adds accounts or syncing will change what data is involved, and this policy will be updated accordingly before that ships.
