BeeCount Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026-06-25

Summary​

  • BeeCount itself does NOT collect your data and does NOT operate any servers
  • We do NOT use any analytics or tracking
  • By default your data stays on your device; nothing is sent off-device
  • Only when you actively enable and configure AI features is the relevant data sent to the third-party AI provider you choose

1. Information We Collect​

BeeCount is privacy-first by design: no registration, no server-side collection, no analytics or crash reporting, no advertising SDKs, no third-party tracking.

2. How We Store Your Data​

  • Local storage: all your records are stored in a local database on your device.
  • Cloud sync (optional): if enabled, data is stored only on the server YOU configure (your own Supabase / WebDAV), which we cannot access.

3. Data Sharing​

BeeCount itself does not collect or sell your data, and we do not operate servers that receive it.

  • By default, no data leaves your device.
  • If you enable cloud sync, data goes only to the server YOU configure.
  • If you enable AI features, the data needed for your request is sent to the third-party AI provider YOU configure (see Section 5).

4. Permissions​

  • Camera: to capture payment receipts for AI recognition (only when you use it).
  • Microphone: for voice bookkeeping (only when you use it).
  • Photos / Storage: to import or share bill files you select.
  • Network: to communicate with the cloud service / AI provider you configure.
  • Notifications / Reminders: update prompts and bookkeeping reminders (optional).

5. AI Features & Third-Party Services (optional, off by default)​

When you enable AI features and configure a provider, BeeCount sends — for the request you initiate — receipt/screenshot images, voice recordings, text you type, and the category names, account names and transaction records needed to complete recognition or analysis, to the provider you configured:

  • Zhipu GLM (default, open.bigmodel.cn, operated by Zhipu) — subject to Zhipu's privacy policy.
  • Any other third-party AI service you configure — subject to that provider's privacy policy.

AI is OFF by default and requires your own API key. Before any data is sent, the app shows an in-app notice naming the provider and the data involved and asks for your consent. BeeCount itself neither receives nor stores this data.

Cloud sync likewise:

6. Your Rights​

You are fully in control of your data: export to CSV, clear data, or uninstall the app to delete all local data at any time.
