This Privacy Policy explains how DigitalSprout Ltd (“we”, “us”, or “our”), a company registered in the United Kingdom, handles information when you use the TipMint iOS or Android app (“TipMint” or the “App”). DigitalSprout Ltd is the controller for personal information described in this policy.
The short version
- Your shift records are stored locally on your device.
- You do not need to create a TipMint account.
- Optional Face ID, fingerprint, or other biometric access is handled by your operating system; TipMint receives only the authentication result.
- We do not run ads or track you across apps or websites.
- RevenueCat helps validate purchases; Apple or Google Play handles payment and billing.
- You control when and where an export, backup, or report is saved or shared.
Information stored on your device
TipMint stores the shift information you choose to enter—such as hours, tip amounts, dates, and related app settings—locally on your device. We do not operate a server that receives or stores this shift history.
You can edit or delete records in the App. Removing the App normally removes its locally stored data, subject to device backups and your operating system’s behaviour.
If you choose to protect TipMint with Face ID, fingerprint, or another supported biometric, authentication is performed by iOS or Android using the device’s system security. TipMint receives only a success or failure response. We do not receive, access, or store your face image, fingerprint, Face ID data, or biometric template.
Purchases and premium access
In configured iOS and Android builds, RevenueCat initializes when TipMint launches so the App can check premium access. This can happen whether or not you have purchased TipMint Pro. RevenueCat may process a pseudonymous app-user identifier, product identifiers, transaction or receipt information supplied by Apple or Google Play, entitlement status, and limited technical information needed to provide purchase access, including when you view, buy, restore, or use a premium entitlement.
Apple or Google Play processes the purchase itself. We do not receive your full payment-card or bank details. RevenueCat and the applicable store handle their information under their own policies:
No advertising or behavioural tracking
TipMint does not include third-party advertising, sell personal information, or use data to track you across other companies’ apps and websites. We do not use your shift history for marketing or profiling.
Apple or Google may make diagnostics available if you separately choose to share platform analytics with developers in your device settings. That choice is controlled by you and the platform provider.
Exports, backups, and reports
TipMint lets you create a CSV spreadsheet, a JSON backup that can be restored in the App, and, with TipMint Pro, a formatted PDF report. These files are created only when you choose the relevant action.
Once you save or share a file outside TipMint, its security and retention depend on the destination you selected—for example Files, email, cloud storage, or another app. Delete exported copies, backups, and reports separately when you no longer need them.
Why information is processed
Local shift information is processed on your device to provide the features you request. Purchase information is processed to perform our contract with you by validating, restoring, and maintaining premium access. We may also retain limited purchase or correspondence records where needed to comply with law, resolve disputes, or protect our legitimate interests.
We also use RevenueCat purchase information to understand subscription performance, including purchases, renewals, and cancellations. This purchase analytics does not include your locally stored shift records.
Sharing and international processing
We do not share your shift history because we do not receive it. Purchase-related information is processed by RevenueCat and Apple or Google Play as described above. These providers may process information outside the UK; their policies describe the legal safeguards they use for international transfers.
Retention and deletion
On-device records remain until you delete them or remove the App, subject to device backups. RevenueCat and the applicable app store retain purchase information according to their policies and legal duties. Emails you send us may be retained while we handle your request and for a reasonable period afterward for support and record-keeping.
Security
Local storage reduces the amount of information sent away from your device, but no system is completely secure. Protect your device with a passcode and current software. Keep exported files only in locations you trust.
Children
TipMint is intended for working-age users and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through a TipMint account because the App has no account system.
Your privacy rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to processing of personal information we hold, and to complain to a regulator. Because shift history stays on your device, we cannot access or delete it for you. For purchase or support information we may hold, contact us at info@digitalsprout.org.
UK users may also contact the Information Commissioner’s Office.
Changes and contact
We may update this policy when TipMint, our providers, or legal requirements change. We will post the current version here and update the effective date. Questions or privacy requests can be sent to:
