Privacy Policy
Splito (“Splito”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use the Splito mobile application on iOS and Android (the “Service”) or Splito website and describes your privacy rights and choices.
By using Splito, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with any of the practices described in this Privacy Policy, please do not use our services.
1. Who We Are
Splito is an app that helps people share and track expenses with friends or groups. You choose who can see each expense. Only the people you share an expense with can view it. Anyone who can see a shared expense can also edit or delete it. Your expenses are private and are never shown to the public.
To use Splito, you need to create an account. When you sign up, we ask for basic details like your name, email address, and phone number. We use this information to set up and manage your account, help your friends find you, and allow you to log in from different devices.
We also collect some basic technical information, such as the kind of device you use and your internet address (IP address). This helps us keep Splito safe and working properly. We may also look at general information like how expenses are added or how groups are used so we can improve the app and make it more secure.
We do not sell your personal information or share it with other companies for advertising. We only use your information as explained in this privacy policy, unless you give us permission to do something else. You can control your privacy settings in your account. If you need help, you can contact us at contact@canopas.com
Splito may store and process information in different countries where our systems or service partners are located. Some countries may have different privacy laws than yours. No matter where your data is handled, we use strong safety measures to protect it.
Splito is not made for children under 13 years old. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If a parent or guardian believes their child has shared personal information with us, they can contact at contact@canopas.com and we will remove that information as quickly as possible.
2. Scope of This Policy
This Policy covers personal data we process as a data controller (or jointly with other controllers, as applicable). In certain instances such as when we use third-party processors for cloud hosting or payment processing, those parties may also act as data processors or joint controllers under relevant laws.
We reserve the right to update this Policy from time to time. If we do, we will post notice of the changes on the Website and/or within our Application. Continued use of our Services after any posted modifications constitutes acceptance of the updated Policy.
