This Privacy Policy describes how the Handybill iOS application ("Handybill", "the app", "we") handles your information. The short version: the app does not send your documents or personal data to us. There are no user accounts, and we have no access to anything you create in the app. The only things we receive are a purchase notification from Apple when someone buys Handybill Pro (section 3) and the words you choose to send us through the optional feedback form (section 2).
Everything you enter in Handybill — business details, clients, invoices, estimates, receipts, service catalog, signatures and logos — is stored locally on your device. If you are signed in to iCloud, the app additionally syncs this data to your private iCloud database (CloudKit), which is controlled by your Apple Account and governed by Apple's privacy terms. We cannot read, access or receive any of this data.
The app sends nothing to us on its own. It contains no analytics SDKs, no advertising SDKs and no trackers. We do not collect usage data, identifiers, location, contacts or any other personal information.
Optional anonymous feedback. Since version 5.1, More → "Suggest a feature" lets you send us an idea or a problem. Only if you tap "Send", the app sends: the text you typed, the kind you picked (idea, problem or other), the app's language and version, your device's region (two letters, e.g. "DE"), the country your business is set up for in the app, and whether you use the free plan, Pro, a trial or the plan of an existing user. Nothing else — no name, e-mail, device or advertising identifier, and none of your documents, clients or business details. The message is passed through our server to the developer's Telegram chat so we can read it; Telegram processes it under its own privacy policy. Your IP address is used only briefly to stop spam (a limit on how many messages can be sent in a row) and is not stored with your message; like any web server, ours may keep standard technical logs for a short time. We keep the messages for up to 12 months, only to read and act on your suggestions, and then delete them. They are not linked to you, so we cannot look up a particular person's message — but if you send us the text you wrote (see section 9), we will delete it. Please do not type personal details into the form. In the App Privacy label this appears as "Customer Support" data, not linked to you and not used for tracking.
Subscriptions and one-time purchases are processed entirely by Apple through the App Store. We never see your payment details. The app checks your purchases on the device with Apple's StoreKit; it does not use any third-party purchase service.
When you buy Pro, Apple sends us a purchase notification. We keep only the product, country, price, date and type of event (for example a purchase, a renewal, a cancelled renewal or a refund) and whether a free trial or another offer was used, plus the notification's own ID so that it is not counted twice. We use these details only to count sales, and we don't store Apple's transaction identifiers. The notification contains no name or e-mail address, and we never receive your documents.
Reminders and follow-ups (overdue and recurring invoices, estimates waiting for an answer, the end of a free trial) are local notifications on your iPhone. They are not sent through any server. With previews off, the lock screen shows only “A reminder is due”.
Estimate messages can end with a “reply OK” line. Your client's reply comes to you in your own messenger or e-mail; Handybill sends and receives nothing.
PDFs made on the free plan carry a short "Made with Handybill" line that links to Handybill's page on the App Store. If someone opens that link, Apple may count the visit in its App Store statistics, which we only see as totals.
Handybill is a business tool and is not directed at children under 13. Apart from the optional feedback form (section 2), we do not collect any data, and we do not knowingly receive data from children.
If this policy changes, the updated version will be published at this address with a new "Last updated" date.
