Privacy Policy for Subs
Effective date: August 30, 2026
Subs is a local-first subscription, expense, and budget tracker provided by Ehapps ("we", "us", or the "Service Provider"). This policy explains how the Subs mobile app handles information on Android and iOS.
Summary
— You do not need to create a Subs account.
— Subscription, expense, budget, and preference data that you enter is stored locally on your device. We do not operate an application server that receives those records.
— If you create a backup, Subs writes it only to the file location or storage provider you choose.
— The free version uses Google AdMob. Google and its consent platform may process advertising and device data as described below.
— Purchases and entitlement checks are handled by Google Play or Apple and RevenueCat.
— Subs does not include AI features, Firebase Analytics, or a developer-operated analytics or marketing system.
Information stored locally on your device
Subs stores the information you choose to enter or configure, including:
— subscriptions, such as a title, price, billing period, start date, display color, and reminder setting;
— expenses, such as a title, amount, category, date, and optional note;
— budgets, such as a category and monthly limit; and
— app preferences, such as currency, theme, reminder settings, onboarding status, and locally cached Pro or ad-removal status.
On Android this information is stored in app-private DataStore storage. On iOS it is stored in the app's UserDefaults storage. This data is used on the device to provide calculations, charts, lists, budgets, and other app features. We do not receive these records on our own servers.
If you enable reminders and grant notification permission, Subs schedules local notifications on your device. A reminder can contain the subscription title and renewal date. These notifications are scheduled and delivered by your device's operating system; Subs does not use a remote push-notification server.
Backups
When you explicitly export a backup, the backup can include your subscriptions, expenses, budgets, selected preferences, and an export timestamp. You choose where the file is saved, which may include a local folder or a third-party cloud-storage provider available through your device. Subs does not automatically upload the exported file to us.
Your operating system may also include app data in device or cloud backups according to your Android, Google, iOS, or Apple backup settings. Those platform backups are controlled by you and the relevant platform provider.
Anyone who can access an exported backup file may be able to read its contents. You are responsible for protecting and deleting backup files stored outside the app.
Advertising and consent
The free version of Subs displays banner ads using the Google Mobile Ads SDK (AdMob). Depending on your region, device settings, and consent choices, Google may process information such as:
— IP address and general location derived from it;
— device and advertising identifiers, where available and permitted;
— app and ad interactions, including impressions and ad performance; and
— device, network, and diagnostic information used to deliver, secure, measure, and prevent fraud in advertising.
Subs uses Google's User Messaging Platform (UMP) to request and store advertising consent choices where required. In the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, and Switzerland, UMP determines whether a consent form must be shown. Subs does not initialize the Mobile Ads SDK or request an ad until UMP reports that ads may be requested.
When required, a Privacy choices action is available in Settings so you can review or change your choices. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that already occurred before withdrawal.
On iOS, Google's UMP flow may present an explainer followed by Apple's App Tracking Transparency prompt. If you deny tracking permission, the advertising identifier is not available to the app for tracking. Consent-compliant contextual or otherwise permitted ads may still be shown.
Pro users do not receive banner ad requests while their Pro entitlement or ad-removal status is active. Google may retain information collected from earlier ad activity according to its own policies.

Purchases and RevenueCat
Google Play or Apple processes purchases made through the app. Subs uses RevenueCat to retrieve product offerings, validate and restore purchases, and determine whether the subs Pro entitlement is active.
RevenueCat and the applicable app store may process purchase and transaction information, product identifiers, an automatically generated or store-linked customer identifier, app and device information, IP address, and diagnostic information needed to provide and protect the purchase service. Subs receives entitlement status and stores a local Pro or ad-removal status. We do not receive or store your full payment-card details.

Purposes and legal bases
Information is processed for the following purposes:
— to provide the app features you request and maintain your local records;
— to schedule local reminders when you enable them and grant permission;
— to provide, validate, and restore purchases;
— to deliver, measure, secure, and prevent fraud in advertising; and
— to comply with legal obligations and enforce applicable terms.
Where applicable law requires consent for advertising or tracking, processing is based on the choices collected through UMP and, on iOS, App Tracking Transparency. Purchase processing is necessary to provide the transaction and paid features you request. Other limited processing may be based on legitimate interests, such as security and fraud prevention, where permitted by law.
Sharing and third parties
We do not sell the subscription, expense, or budget records stored locally in Subs. Information may be processed by Google, Apple, and RevenueCat for the advertising, consent, store, and purchase purposes described above. Those providers act under their own terms and privacy policies and may use their own subprocessors.
We may disclose information if required by law or when reasonably necessary to protect rights, safety, prevent fraud, or respond to a lawful government request. Because we do not receive your locally stored financial-tracking records, we normally have no copy of those records to disclose.
Retention and deletion
Local app data remains on your device until you delete individual records, replace data through backup import, clear the app's storage, or uninstall the app. Scheduled local notifications remain until they are delivered, cancelled by the app, removed through your device settings, or removed when the app is uninstalled.
Exported backup files remain wherever you chose to save them until you delete them from that location. Clearing or uninstalling Subs does not delete copies that you exported to another folder or storage provider.
We cannot directly delete subscription, expense, budget, or preference records that were never transmitted to us. You can delete those records in the app or remove all local app data through your device settings or by uninstalling Subs. Platform backups may remain according to your Google or Apple backup settings and retention rules.
Google, Apple, and RevenueCat retain information they process according to their own policies and legal obligations. To ask about data associated with advertising or purchases, change advertising consent through Privacy choices when available, use the privacy controls provided by the relevant platform or provider, or contact us at the address below so we can help route your request.
International transfers
Google, Apple, RevenueCat, and their subprocessors may process information in countries other than the country where you live. Where required, those providers use recognized transfer mechanisms or other safeguards described in their privacy documentation.
Your privacy rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to processing of personal information, withdraw consent, and lodge a complaint with a data-protection authority. You may also have the right to opt out of certain targeted advertising, sale, or sharing of personal information.
Most information you enter in Subs is under your direct control on your device. You can view, change, or delete individual records in the app and control advertising consent through Privacy choices when that option is required. For requests concerning information processed by Google, Apple, or RevenueCat, you may use their privacy controls or contact us for assistance.
We will not discriminate against you for exercising applicable privacy rights.
Children
Subs is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children through a Subs account or application server. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us or through one of the third-party services used by Subs, contact us so we can investigate and take appropriate action.
Security
Subs relies on app-private storage and the security features of your device and operating system. Third-party advertising and purchase providers maintain their own security controls. No storage or transmission method is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security. Protect your device, store credentials, and exported backup files against unauthorized access.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when the app or its service providers change. The current version will be posted at the public privacy-policy URL with a new effective date. Where required by law, we will request consent for materially different processing.
