Privacy Policy
Effective date: June 14, 2026
Introduction
Sana is an AI-powered expense tracker for iPhone. This Privacy Policy explains what information the app handles, how it is used, and your choices. Sana is designed to be private by default: there is no account, no sign-up, no advertising, and no analytics or tracking. Your financial data stays on your device. By using Sana (the “Service”), you agree to the practices described here.
Information We Collect
Sana is built to collect as little as possible. We do not ask you to create an account and we never collect your name, email, phone number, contacts, bank logins, or location.
- Your financial data: Expenses, amounts, categories, currencies, dates, and notes you enter are stored locally on your device. This data is never uploaded to our servers and we cannot see it.
- AI feature content: When you scan a receipt or ask the in-app AI assistant a question, the relevant photo or text (and the spending context needed to answer) is sent to our AI provider only to generate your result — a parsed receipt, an answer, or an insight. We do not build a profile from it.
- Purchase status (anonymous): If you subscribe, we receive confirmation of your subscription and trial status through Adapty so we can unlock Premium features. We never see or store your payment-card details — purchases are handled entirely by Apple’s App Store.
Sana contains no third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking SDKs. To convert between currencies, the app downloads public exchange-rate data from a content-delivery network; this request contains no personal information about you.
How We Use Your Information
- Providing the Service: Your financial data is used on your device to track, categorize, and visualize your spending.
- AI features: When you use receipt scanning or the AI assistant, the relevant photo, text, and spending context are sent to our AI processing provider (OpenRouter, which routes the request to Google’s Gemini models) solely to produce your result. By using these features you consent to this processing.
- Subscriptions: Purchase and trial status is used to unlock and maintain Premium access.
We do not sell your personal information, we do not use it for advertising, and we do not track you across other apps or websites.
Third-Party Services
Sana relies on a small number of trusted providers, each governed by its own privacy policy:
- OpenRouter (routing to Google Gemini): processes the receipt images and questions you submit to generate AI results.
- Adapty: subscription and trial management.
- Apple App Store: processes all payments and manages your subscription.
- Public exchange-rate CDN: serves up-to-date currency rates; no personal data is sent.
Data Retention & Your Control
Your financial data is stored locally on your device for as long as you keep it in the app. You can edit or delete individual entries at any time. Because there is no account, deleting the app removes all of your local Sana data. Content sent for AI processing is used only to generate your immediate result and is not retained by us. You can revoke camera or photo access at any time in your device Settings.
Children’s Privacy
Sana is intended for general audiences managing their personal finances and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Sana’s insights and AI answers are informational only and are not financial, tax, or investment advice.
International Data Transfers
Sana is available globally. The content you submit for AI processing may be transferred to and processed on servers located outside your country of residence, including in the United States. We rely on our providers’ appropriate safeguards for such transfers.
Your Rights (GDPR / CCPA)
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete your personal information. Because Sana holds no identifiable account and stores your financial data on your device, you can exercise deletion at any time by removing the app. For any privacy questions or requests, contact us at the address below — we do not sell personal data.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the effective date at the top of this page. Material changes will be highlighted in the app or here. Continued use of Sana after an update signifies acceptance of the revised policy.
