Privacy at a glance

Receipt recognition and tip calculations are performed on your device. No account is required. Receipt images are not kept in calculation history. ScanTip is a free, advertising-supported app, and advertising partners process limited device and advertising data as explained below.

1. Scope and responsible product

This policy applies to ScanTip: Tip Calculator and the official website at tttipcalculator.com. ScanTip is the product identified in this policy and in its Google Play listing. For privacy questions, contact us at Lopezh200514@gmail.com.

2. Information handled by ScanTip

InformationHow it is handled and why
Receipt images and recognized textAccessed only when you take a photo or select an image to calculate a tip. Text recognition runs on your device. A photo captured by ScanTip is held temporarily for processing and deleted after processing, cancellation, or failure. Images selected through the Android system picker are not copied into long-term app storage. Receipt images and recognized text are not uploaded to our servers.
Bill and calculation dataAmounts you confirm, such as the bill total, tax, included service charge, tip, number of people, rounding choice, dining target, and result, are processed locally to provide the calculation. Records appear in History only when you choose to save them.
App preferencesLanguage, theme, default currency, and a saved dining target are stored locally on your device so the app can remember your choices.
Camera accessThe app requests camera permission only after you choose to photograph a receipt. You can deny the permission and continue with Gallery or manual entry.
Advertising and device dataScanTip is free and supported by advertising. Advertising partners, including Google, process information such as advertising identifiers where available, IP address, device and app information, general location inferred from IP address, ad impressions and interactions, diagnostics, and fraud-prevention signals to deliver ads, limit repetition, measure performance, prevent abuse, and provide personalized ads where permitted by law and your consent choices.
Information you send usIf you email us, we receive your email address and the content you provide so we can respond to your request and maintain appropriate support records.

We do not require an account. ScanTip does not ask you to create a profile, and it does not provide cloud synchronization of receipt or calculation history.

3. How information is used

Information is used to:

  • scan and recognize receipt totals when you request that feature;
  • calculate tips, split bills, apply rounding, and compare the final amount with an optional dining target;
  • save calculations and preferences locally at your direction;
  • provide, measure, secure, and improve the app;
  • deliver and measure advertising, control ad frequency, and prevent invalid traffic or fraud;
  • respond to support, privacy, or legal inquiries; and
  • comply with applicable law and enforce product security.

4. Sharing and third-party processing

We do not sell personal and sensitive user data. Information is shared only in the following limited contexts:

  • Advertising providers. Advertising partners process the advertising and device data described above under their own terms and privacy policies. Google explains its advertising data practices at Google Advertising Technologies and its broader practices at Google Privacy Policy.
  • User-directed sharing. When you use Android’s share sheet, the result text is sent to the destination you choose. The destination app’s privacy practices apply after you share.
  • Legal and safety reasons. Information may be disclosed when reasonably necessary to comply with law, legal process, or valid governmental requests, or to protect users, the public, our rights, or app security.
  • Business transfers. Information may be transferred as part of a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, or sale of assets, subject to appropriate notice and safeguards required by law.

5. Your choices and controls

  • Use manual entry instead of granting camera access.
  • Use the Android system Photo Picker to choose only the image you want to process.
  • Delete individual saved calculations from History.
  • Clear local app data or uninstall ScanTip to remove locally stored calculations and preferences.
  • Control or reset the Android advertising identifier and ad-personalization choices through your device and applicable consent controls.
  • Contact Lopezh200514@gmail.com for a privacy inquiry. Because receipt calculations are not stored on our servers and no account is required, we generally cannot identify or remotely delete local app data on your device.

6. Retention and deletion

Temporary photos created by ScanTip are deleted after receipt processing finishes, is canceled, or fails. Saved calculations and preferences remain on your device until you delete them, clear the app’s storage, or uninstall the app. Support emails are retained only as reasonably necessary to answer the request, maintain support history, protect the app, or meet legal obligations.

Advertising providers retain advertising and device data according to their own policies, legal requirements, consent choices, and fraud-prevention needs. Their retention periods may differ from ours.

7. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards appropriate to the nature of the information. Core receipt recognition, calculation, history, and preferences are designed to operate locally on your device. Where third-party services transmit data, modern encrypted transport such as HTTPS is expected. No method of storage or transmission is completely secure, so absolute security cannot be guaranteed.

8. Children’s privacy

ScanTip is intended for adults managing dining payments and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, contact Lopezh200514@gmail.com so we can investigate and take appropriate action.

9. International processing

Advertising and support service providers may process information in countries other than the country where you live. Where required, applicable contractual, consent, and legal safeguards are used for international transfers.

10. This website

The public pages at tttipcalculator.com do not include an account system, contact form, analytics script, or advertising script. The website itself does not intentionally set tracking cookies. If you email us through a link on the site, your email provider processes the message under its own privacy policy.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when the app, our data practices, legal requirements, or service providers change. We will post the updated policy at this URL and revise the effective date above. Material changes will be communicated through the app or other appropriate means when required by law.
