Spend Toll

Privacy Policy

Spend Toll runs entirely on your device. We don't have a server, we don't have accounts, and we don't watch how you use the app. The short version is: we never see your data. The longer version is below.

What's stored on your device

This data is stored using Apple's standard on-device persistence (SwiftData + App Group UserDefaults). You can clear it any time via Settings → Troubleshooting → Delete usage data.

iCloud (optional)

If you have iCloud enabled, Spend Toll syncs your coin balance and hourly wage between your devices using Apple's iCloud Key-Value Store — the same private mechanism Apple uses for many of its own apps. No usage history is synced — only the two values needed to keep the friction tool consistent across devices. This data lives in your private iCloud account, not on any server we operate; we have no read or write access to it. To opt out, disable iCloud or sign out of iCloud.

In-App Purchases

When you buy a Pro subscription or an emergency coin pack, the purchase goes through Apple's StoreKit. Apple processes the transaction; we receive a verification token from Apple and credit the entitlement locally. We do not see your payment method or Apple ID. Receipts are verified on device — they never reach any of our servers, because we don't have any.

Optional feedback survey

Settings includes a "Help improve Spend Toll" button that opens a Tally (tally.so) form in Safari. The form is anonymous and optional. Tally does not receive identifying data about you from the app. If you choose to fill it out, your answers go to Tally; we receive aggregated, anonymous results.

Live Activities & Notifications

Spend Toll uses local notifications to remind you when a buying window ends. Live Activities show the buying-window countdown on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island. All notifications are scheduled and fired locally on your device — they never touch a remote push server.

Children

Spend Toll is for adult self-management. It is not designed for or directed at children under 13.

Changes

If we materially change what data the app handles, we'll update this page and increment the app version. Because we have no analytics, we can't proactively notify you — please re-read on app updates if you want to stay current.

Contact

Questions about your data: hi@spendtoll.app. We read every email — we're one person, so the reply might come back in 24–48 hours, but it always comes back.
