What Qisma collects when you split a bill, scan a receipt, or run a savings circle — and what we do with it.
This policy explains how Qisma (قِسْمة) — the mobile app for splitting bills, tracking who owes what, and running group savings circles (جمعية) — collects, uses, and protects your information. It applies to anyone who creates a Qisma account, and to anyone whose name and photo are added to a bill or circle by someone who does.
| Category | What it includes |
|---|---|
| Account | Email, and/or your Apple or Google profile if you sign in that way; display name; profile photo, if you upload one or have one on Google; preferred currency. If you use Sign in with Apple with Hide My Email, we only ever receive Apple’s private relay address, never your real one. |
| Friends & participants | Names and photos of people you add to your friends list, or who are added automatically when you split a bill with someone new. A participant doesn't need a Qisma account — their name and share are still recorded. |
| Receipts & bills | Photos of receipts you scan, and the items, prices, and totals read from them; how a bill was split; who marked themselves (or was marked) paid. |
| Savings circles | Circle membership, turn order, contribution amounts, and payment claims members self-report. |
| Subscription | Whether you hold an active Qisma Pro subscription, and its renewal date — handled by the App Store or Google Play Billing, depending on where you installed Qisma, together with RevenueCat, detailed below. |
When you scan a receipt, the photo is sent to Anthropic's Claude API to read the merchant, items, and prices automatically, then stored in a private file bucket tied to your account. Anthropic processes the image to return that reading and does not use it to train models on our behalf.
We rely on a small set of processors to run Qisma, each handling only what its role requires:
We don't share your information with anyone else, except where required by law.
Splitting a bill is inherently shared: everyone in that bill's group can see your name, photo, and what you owe or paid on that bill. Circle members can see the same for a savings circle. Neither can see your other bills, circles, or account details.
We keep your information for as long as your account is active. You can request deletion at any time by contacting us — we'll remove your account and personal data, though a bill or circle's shared record may keep your name and share amount if other members still need it for their own history, the same way a paper receipt would.
Wherever you're writing to us from, you can ask to access, correct, export, or delete your personal data. Reach out using the contact below and we'll respond within a reasonable time.
Qisma is not directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect information from them. If you believe a child has created an account, contact us and we'll remove it.
Data is encrypted in transit, and access to it is restricted to what each part of the service needs. No method of storage or transmission is 100% secure, but we work to keep your information protected.
If we make material changes, we'll update the date at the top of this page and let you know inside the app.
