Perkroo ("we", "us") helps you track the memberships you already have and the perks they include. This policy explains what information the Perkroo app and the perkroo.app website collect, why, and what happens to it. The short version: we collect only what we need to run the app and the website, we don't sell your data, we don't use it for advertising, and you can delete your account and its data yourself from inside the app. The app contains no analytics or tracking SDKs of any kind — no usage analytics, no crash reporting, no advertising identifiers.
What we collect and why
| Information | Why we collect it |
|---|---|
| Email address and name | To create and secure your account, and so your saved data follows you across devices. |
| An account ID — a random identifier created when you sign up | To link your data to your account. |
| Approximate location — the coordinates of your postcode's centre point, or your precise location if you turn that on (optional, and only with your device's permission) | Sent with a request for nearby offers so we can work out how far away each one is. You can switch between approximate and precise at any time in Location settings. Your postcode itself stays on your phone; only if the app doesn't recognise it does it ask our server for that postcode's centre point, and we don't store it. |
| Your memberships and savings — the providers you add (including the specific bank cards and health funds you hold), and the savings you log: the offer, the amount saved and when, the bill total or litres you entered to work it out, and the store name if you type one in | This is the core of the app: it's how Perkroo shows you your offers and your savings total. The app never asks for your card or account numbers, and never uploads the ones you save in it. |
| What you contribute to the community — offers you submit, offers you confirm, corrections you suggest, and reports you make about inappropriate content | To run the shared catalogue: submissions and corrections are checked by our moderators, and reports are how we find content that breaks the rules. These are stored against your account so we can review them, prevent abuse, and show you your own corrections — but your name is never shown to other users. |
| Community submissions — offers you share, including an optional photo | A moderator reviews every offer you submit, and any photo attached to it, before other members can see it. Until then, only you and our moderators can see it. Once approved, the offer and its photo appear in the app for everyone, and the offer's details (not the photo) can also appear on a public page on perkroo.app. Submissions are never shown with your name or contact details, though we do record which account submitted one so moderators can act on abuse. |
| Your membership cards (optional) — a membership number you type in, or a photo of the card taken with your camera or chosen from your photo library | So you can show your card at the counter without digging out the physical one. This stays on your phone. It is never uploaded to us, never sent to the providers, and we cannot see it — see "Kept only on your phone" below. |
| Your subscription — your plan and its status, its price and currency, its start, renewal, cancellation and end dates, and the store's transaction IDs | To unlock Premium features if you subscribe, and to answer billing questions. Payment is handled entirely by Apple or Google Play — we never see your card details. |
What we don't do
- We don't sell or rent your personal information to anyone.
- We don't show ads, and we don't track you across other apps or websites.
- We don't read your email or contacts.
- We don't browse your photo library. The app asks for the camera or your photos only at the moment you choose to attach a picture, and it receives only the picture you pick. A photo is uploaded only when it goes with an offer you share with the community, from the Community tab or with "Save & share with community" on an offer you added yourself; a photo of your own membership card never leaves your phone.
- We never collect payment details — Apple or Google Play processes all purchases.
Who processes your data
Perkroo uses a small number of service providers to run the app and the website:
- Supabase — hosts our database and handles account sign-in. Your data is stored in Supabase's cloud infrastructure and protected by per-user access rules.
- RevenueCat — manages subscription status (which plan you're on and until when). It receives your account ID whenever you're signed in on iPhone, and your purchase receipts if you subscribe — never your payment details.
- Apple — processes Premium subscription payments on iPhone under Apple's own terms and privacy policy.
- Google Play — processes Premium subscription payments on Android under Google's own terms and privacy policy.
- Cloudflare — runs the perkroo.app website, its visitor statistics and the Android waitlist, and hosts the tools our moderators use to review submissions and manage accounts.
Our database is stored in Sydney. Supabase, RevenueCat, Apple, Google and Cloudflare are based overseas, mainly in the United States, so some of your information is processed outside Australia.
Kept only on your phone
Some things are stored on your device and never sent to us at all:
- Your membership cards — the numbers you enter and any photos you take of your cards. We deliberately don't collect these: a loyalty number is yours, and the safest place for it is your own phone rather than our database.
- Your birthday month (month only — never the date or year) and your postcode. We use your birthday month to pick your birthday perks and your postcode to work out distances, but they're held on your phone rather than in your account.
- Benefits you add by hand, and the offers you've hidden by reporting them. Three exceptions: "Save & share with community" sends a benefit you added, and any photo you choose to share with it, to our moderators as a community submission; logging a saving from a benefit you added puts that saving in your savings history with us; and hiding a birthday perk for the year is saved to your account.
- A saved copy of your offers, so the app opens instantly, even on a weak signal. It holds the same information you'd see online — nothing extra.
When you sign out, switch to a different account on the same phone, or delete your account, the app clears all of this except your postcode and location setting, which belong to the phone rather than the account, and the photo files of your cards and of benefits you added by hand, which the next account can't open. Those stay until you change them or delete the app. Deleting the app removes everything.
Reporting is not the same as hiding a birthday perk. When you report an offer, it disappears from your own view straight away (that list stays on your phone), and the report is sent to us — with your account attached — so a moderator can review it and act on it. Hiding a birthday perk for the year is not a report: it is saved to your account so the perk stays hidden, and other members can't see it.
Links to providers' own apps
Some offers include a link that opens the provider's own app or website (for example to show your card there). Once you leave Perkroo, that provider's own terms and privacy policy apply — we don't send them any of your information, and we have no visibility of what you do there.
How long we keep it
We keep your information while your account exists. Approved community submissions may remain visible to other users (not attributed to you) after you delete your account, since they've become part of the shared catalogue. Offers you submitted that hadn't been reviewed yet, and any photos with them, also stay for moderators to review, no longer linked to your account. Our service providers keep their own billing and security records under their own policies; RevenueCat, for example, keeps a record of your account ID and any purchases.
Deleting your data
Open Profile → Delete account in the app. This permanently removes your account, your memberships, your savings history, and your personal details from our systems. It cannot be undone. A few things stay: those listed under "How long we keep it" above, a minimal moderation record we keep where we have to, to stop abuse and meet our legal obligations, and copies in our encrypted backups for up to 30 days. You can also email us (below) and we'll delete it for you.
The perkroo.app website
The website counts visits with Cloudflare Web Analytics, which uses no cookies and doesn't identify you. Links that start with perkroo.app/go/ count clicks by channel and day only. If you leave your email on our waitlist, we keep it for up to a year after you sign up, only to tell you when the app is ready for your phone.
Your subscription
Premium is billed by Apple to your Apple ID on iPhone, or by Google Play to your Google account on Android. To manage or cancel it, use your Apple ID subscription settings or Google Play → Subscriptions — deleting the app or your account does not cancel a store subscription.
Children
Perkroo is not directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect information from them.
Changes to this policy
If we change this policy, we'll update this page and the "last updated" date above. Meaningful changes will be flagged in the app.
