Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 30, 2026

Overview

Split Me is a free, browser-based bill-splitting tool. We are committed to keeping your experience private and transparent. This policy explains what data we collect and why.

By using Split Me, you acknowledge that your information may be processed on servers located outside of your home country.

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

Google Sign-In & Account Data

Split Me offers optional sign-in via Google OAuth. Signing in is not required to use the core bill-splitting features. If you choose to sign in, we receive the following information from Google:

  • Your display name
  • Your profile photo URL
  • Your Google account email address (used as a unique identifier)

This information is used solely to associate your saved splits with your account. We do not use it for marketing or share it with third parties.

You can sign out at any time from the Settings menu. Signing out immediately ends your session. To request deletion of your account data, contact us at the email below.

Saved Splits

When you choose to save a split, the following data is stored in Firebase Firestore under your account:

  • The name you give the saved split
  • Participant names and their colour hues
  • Food palette names, prices, and participant contributions
  • Tax and discount modifiers
  • Computed summary totals
  • Timestamp of when the split was saved

This data is only accessible to you when signed in. It is stored securely and is not shared with other users or third parties. You can delete any saved split at any time from the Saved Splits page.

Bill data you enter but do NOT explicitly save stays entirely in your browser and is never sent to our servers.

Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how users interact with the bill-splitting tool. This helps us improve the experience — for example, understanding which features are used most or where people run into issues.

Google Analytics may collect:

  • Pages visited and time spent on each page
  • General device and browser type
  • Approximate geographic region (country or city level)
  • How you arrived at the site (e.g. search engine, direct link)

Google Analytics data is anonymous and not linked to your Split Me account or any personally identifiable information.

Cookies

Google Analytics uses cookies to distinguish users and sessions. These are small text files stored in your browser. You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time, which will opt you out of analytics tracking.

Firebase Authentication may also use cookies or local storage tokens to maintain your signed-in session across page reloads.

Third-Party Services

This app uses the following third-party services:

  • Google Sign-In (OAuth) — optional account authentication
  • Firebase Authentication — secure session management
  • Firebase Firestore — storage for saved splits (only when signed in)
  • Firebase Hosting — app hosting and infrastructure
  • Google Analytics — anonymous usage analytics

Each of these services has its own privacy policy. We encourage you to review Google's Privacy Policy for more details.

Data Retention

Unsaved bill data exists only in your browser session and is cleared when you close the tab.

Saved splits are retained in Firebase Firestore until you delete them or request account deletion. Analytics data is retained per Google Analytics' default retention settings.

Children's Privacy

Split Me is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated date.
