Privacy Policy
Receiptile Pty Ltd (ACN 696 486 674) · Last updated: 8 July 2026
1. About this policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Receiptile Pty Ltd ("Receiptile", "we", "us", "our") collects, uses, stores, and shares information when you use the Receiptile website, mobile application, hardware device, and related services (collectively, the "Service").
By using the Service, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
2. Information we collect
2.1 Account information
When you create a Receiptile account, we collect your name, email address, and authentication credentials (via Google, Apple, or Microsoft sign-in).
2.2 Receipt data
When a Receiptile device captures a receipt from a point-of-sale system, we collect and process the transaction data contained in that receipt, including merchant name, items purchased, quantities, prices, tax amounts, payment method (type only, not full card numbers), date, and time.
2.3 Device information
We collect information about the Receiptile hardware device, including device identifiers, WiFi connection status, firmware version, and operational logs.
2.4 Email receipt data (Gmail integration)
If you choose to connect your Google account to Receiptile, we access your Gmail inbox using the Google Gmail API with the gmail.readonly scope. This access is used solely to scan your inbox for email receipts and transaction confirmations, extract receipt data from those emails, and add them to your Receiptile receipt history.
Receiptile's use and transfer to any other app of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
Specifically:
- We only read emails that match receipt and transaction patterns. We do not read, store, or process the contents of your other emails.
- We do not use Gmail data for advertising, market research, or any purpose unrelated to providing the Receiptile receipt management service to you.
- We do not allow humans to read your email data unless (a) you give us affirmative consent, (b) it is necessary for security purposes such as investigating abuse, (c) it is necessary to comply with applicable law, or (d) our use is limited to internal operations and the data has been aggregated and anonymised.
- We do not transfer Gmail data to third parties except as necessary to provide or improve the Service, to comply with applicable law, or as part of a merger, acquisition, or asset sale with prior notice to users.
- Gmail data is stored on our servers using encryption in transit (TLS 1.2+) and encryption at rest (AES-256).
- You can disconnect your Gmail account at any time from your Receiptile account settings. Upon disconnection, we will delete all stored Gmail-derived receipt data within 30 days.
2.5 Camera and file uploads
If you use the camera or file upload feature to photograph or upload a receipt, we process the image to extract receipt data. Images are processed and then deleted; we retain only the extracted structured data.
2.6 Usage information
We collect information about how you use the Service, including pages visited, features used, timestamps, and device type (browser, operating system).
2.7 Tap data
When a consumer taps a Receiptile device to retrieve a receipt, we collect the timestamp of the tap and basic device information (browser user agent). We do not collect the consumer's identity, name, email, phone number, or any personal information from the tap interaction.
3. How we use your information
We use the information we collect to:
- Provide, maintain, and improve the Service
- Process and display digital receipts
- Generate receipt analytics for merchants
- Enable receipt export to accounting software (e.g., Xero, Dext)
- Send you service-related notifications (e.g., receipt ready, account updates)
- Ensure the security and integrity of the Service
- Comply with legal obligations
We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We do not use your data for advertising or marketing by third parties.
4. How we store and protect your information
- All data is transmitted over HTTPS with TLS 1.2 or higher
- Receipt data is stored on servers with encryption at rest
- Each receipt is cryptographically signed using Ed25519 to ensure data integrity
- Hardware device authentication uses unique device secrets
- We retain receipt data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service
Our servers and service providers are located in the United States (application hosting, database, AI processing, and payments). Section 8 describes the safeguards that apply to international transfers for UK and EU users.
If you close your account, we delete your personal information within 90 days, except where we must keep specific records for longer to meet legal obligations (for example, tax and accounting records), to resolve disputes, or to enforce our agreements. You can export your receipt data at any time before closing your account.
5. Third-party services
We use the following third-party services to operate the Service:
