Paydar Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 14, 2026

Paydar ("the app") is made by Avihai Hemo ("we", "us"). This policy explains what the app collects, why, and the choices you have. The short version: your work data stays on your iPhone unless you turn on Cloud Backup, we never sell your data, and we don't show ads.

Data stored on your iPhone

Your jobs, pay rates, shifts, breaks, tips, notes and settings are stored in a database on your device. We cannot see this data unless you turn on Cloud Backup.

Cloud Backup (optional)

If you turn on Cloud Backup and sign in with Apple or Google, we receive your account identifier and the email address (and name, if provided) that Apple or Google share with us, and your Paydar data is synced to our database so you can use it on more than one device. If you choose "Hide My Email" with Apple, we only see a relay address.

Cloud data is hosted by Supabase in the United States (US-East). It is kept while your subscription is active and for 90 days after it lapses, then deleted. You can delete your account and all cloud data at any time in Settings › Cloud Backup & Account › Delete account & cloud data; deletion is immediate.

Purchases

Subscriptions and purchases are handled by Apple. We use RevenueCat to check whether you have an active plan. RevenueCat receives a random app user ID (or your account ID if you use Cloud Backup), your purchase history and basic device information. We never receive your payment details.

Usage analytics

To understand which features help people, the app sends anonymous usage events (for example "shift clocked out" or "paycheck check completed") to PostHog, hosted in the United States. Events use a random ID created on install, are not linked to your name or email, and never contain your exact pay, hours, rates or notes; amounts are grouped into broad ranges. You can turn analytics off at any time in Settings › Privacy › Share anonymous usage data.

Crash reports

If the app crashes, a diagnostic report (device model, iOS version, app version and the technical error) is sent to Sentry so we can fix the problem. Crash reports do not include your work data, name or email.

Location (optional)

If you set a workplace and turn on arrival and departure reminders, the app uses iOS location services to notice when you arrive at or leave that place. This check happens on your iPhone; your movements are never sent to us or anyone else. The workplace you pin (an address and a point on the map) is saved with your jobs, so it is included in Cloud Backup if you turn that on. You can turn this off in the app or in iOS Settings at any time.

Notifications

Reminders such as "Still clocked in?" are scheduled on your device. We don't send marketing notifications.

What we don't do

• We don't sell or rent your personal information.
• We don't use advertising SDKs or track you across other companies' apps and websites.
• We don't access your contacts, photos or microphone.

Service providers

We share data only with the providers above (Apple, Google, Supabase, RevenueCat, PostHog, Sentry), each limited to what's needed to run the feature, and each bound by its own privacy and security commitments.

Your rights

Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR or California law), you may have the right to access, correct, export or delete your personal data. Most of this is available in the app: export your data in Settings › Export, and delete your cloud account in Settings › Cloud Backup & Account. For anything else, email us and we'll respond within 30 days.

Children

Paydar is not directed to children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect their personal information.

Changes

If we change this policy, we'll update the date above and, for significant changes, tell you in the app.
