Privacy Policy

Slide is a bill-splitting app operated by Rohan Bindu (sole proprietor, DBA Slide) in California, United States. This policy explains what data we collect, why, and how you can control it. We've written it in plain English.

We do not sell your personal data. We do not use your data for advertising. We don't share it with third parties except as required to operate the core product (auth, payments, SMS verification) or as required by law.

When you use Slide, we collect:

• Account info: name, username, email, phone number, profile photo.
• Phone contacts (optional): if you grant permission, we read your phone contacts so you can invite friends. Contact data stays on your device and is only sent to our servers for matching when you explicitly add someone to a shared expense.
• Expense data: receipts, amounts, descriptions, and the people involved in each transaction.
• Payment method preferences: which payment platforms (Venmo, Cash App, Apple Cash, etc.) you prefer. Slide does not process payments itself — links open the respective third-party app.
• Usage data: app events needed to improve reliability and performance (crash reports, error logs, feature usage).
• Device info: iOS version, device model, and push notification token (if you opt in to notifications).

• Run the core Slide experience — creating accounts, splitting expenses, tracking balances, sending notifications.
• Verify your identity and protect your account (SMS verification codes, session tokens).
• Debug crashes and improve performance.
• Communicate with you about your account or important product changes.

We do not use your data to serve ads. We do not track you across other apps or websites.

Slide relies on a small number of service providers to operate:

• Supabase — authentication and database hosting.
• Render — backend API hosting.
• Twilio — SMS delivery for phone verification codes only (see our SMS Policy).
• Expo / Apple Push Notification Service — push notifications.
• Apple App Store / TestFlight — distribution and crash reports.

Each provider only receives the data needed to deliver that specific service. Payment apps like Venmo and Cash App are opened via deep links; Slide does not share your data with them.

• Contacts:you can deny or revoke contact access in iOS Settings at any time. Slide still works for existing expenses — you just can't invite new people by phone.
• Notifications: toggle push and SMS preferences in iOS Settings or in-app settings.
• SMS opt-out: reply STOP to any Slide SMS to stop all future messages. See our SMS Policy.
• Delete your account: email us at ro@useslideapp.com and we'll delete your account and personal data within 30 days. We may retain minimal records required by law (e.g. tax records).

We keep your data while your account is active. Expense records shared with other users may remain visible to them after you delete your account, since those records are part of their history too. We retain anonymized crash and usage logs for up to 12 months.

Data is encrypted in transit (HTTPS) and at rest. Passwords are hashed. We use industry-standard auth tokens (JWT with asymmetric signing). If a breach occurs that affects your personal data, we'll notify you promptly as required by law.

Slide is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 13. If you believe we have, email us and we'll delete it.

We'll update this page when we materially change how we handle data, and we'll update the “Last updated” date at the top. If changes significantly affect you, we'll email or in-app notify you.
