Privacy Policy

Shopping List app — Effective date: 3 July 2026

At Shopping List, we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your data. This policy explains what we collect, how we use and protect it, and your rights. By using the app, you agree to this policy.

1. Information We Collect

• Account data: your name and email address (when you create an account).
• App data: the shopping lists and items you add, your groups and memberships, and who added or checked off each item.
• Subscription data: your subscription status (active/expired) and purchase details processed via Google Play. We never see your card details.
• Limited technical data: identifiers needed for notifications and to run the service.

2. How We Use Your Data

• To run the app: create your account and sync your lists and groups in real time among members.
• To send essential emails: email verification and password reset.
• To send item added/checked-off notifications (per your settings).
• To manage the free trial and subscription.

We do not use your data for advertising, and we never sell it.

3. Legal Basis

We process your data based on your consent and to provide the service you requested.

4. Data Sharing & Service Providers

We share data only with trusted providers, solely to operate the app:

• Google Firebase (authentication, database, hosting) — by Google.
• Amazon SES — to send emails (verification / password reset).
• Google Play Billing / RevenueCat — to manage subscriptions and payments.

Each provider is governed by its own privacy and security policies.

5. Data Retention

We keep your data while your account is active. When you delete your account, associated data is deleted within a reasonable period (except what we must retain by law).

6. Security

We use encrypted connections and strict access rules to protect your data. No one can access a group they are not a member of.

7. Your Rights & Account Deletion

You may access, correct, or delete your data. You can permanently delete your account and associated data directly inside the app from the side menu by selecting Delete account. You may also contact support@shoppingsm.com for assistance.
