Privacy Policy

01

Overview

Orbix is a native iOS subscription and expense tracker, built and maintained as an independent project. This policy describes what data Orbix collects, how it is stored, and what you can expect in terms of privacy. The short version: Orbix does not sell your data, does not run ads, and does not track you. Your subscription data is stored securely in the cloud so you can access it from any device.

02

Data we collect

When you create an account, Orbix stores your email address to identify your account. All subscription and expense data you enter — names, costs, billing dates, categories, notes, and custom icons — is synced to a secure cloud database (Supabase) and associated with your account. App preferences such as your preferred currency and sort order are stored locally on your device via UserDefaults and are not synced to the cloud. Orbix does not collect device identifiers, location data, usage analytics, or any other information beyond what is described above.

03

Currency conversion

When currency conversion is used, Orbix fetches current exchange rates from frankfurter.app (European Central Bank data). This request contains no personal data. Rates are cached locally on your device for 24 hours to minimise external requests.

04

Local notifications

If you enable trial or renewal reminders, Orbix schedules local notifications on your device using Apple's notification framework. These notifications are generated entirely on-device and no data is sent to any server in relation to them. Notification preferences are stored locally and you can disable them at any time from within the app or from iOS Settings.

05

Face ID

If you enable Face ID lock, biometric authentication is handled entirely by iOS via the LocalAuthentication framework. Orbix never has access to your biometric data. The only thing stored is a boolean flag in UserDefaults indicating whether the lock is enabled.

06

In-app purchases & billing

Orbix Pro is an optional paid subscription available through Apple's App Store. All payments are processed entirely by Apple — Orbix does not see, store, or have access to your payment information, card details, or billing address at any point. When you make a purchase, Apple confirms your subscription status to the app via StoreKit. Orbix stores only whether your subscription is active — no transaction identifiers, receipts, or payment details are stored on our servers. Subscription management, cancellation, and refunds are all handled through Apple. Orbix has no ability to issue refunds directly. For refund requests, contact Apple Support or visit reportaproblem.apple.com.

07

Data sharing

No user data is sold, rented, or shared with third parties for advertising, analytics, or any commercial purpose. The only third-party services involved are: · Supabase — cloud storage and authentication · frankfurter.app — exchange rates (no personal data sent) · Apple — App Store billing and biometric authentication All are used strictly to deliver the app's functionality.

08

Data retention & deletion

Your data is stored for as long as your account is active. You can delete your account and all associated data at any time from Settings → Delete Account. Deletion is permanent and cannot be undone. You can also contact info@orbixapp.net to request deletion manually.

09

Your rights

Users in the EU are protected under GDPR. Users in California are protected under CCPA. You have the right to access, correct, export, or delete your data at any time. Requests can be sent to info@orbixapp.net and will be processed promptly.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes in any meaningful way, the date at the top will be updated and a notice will appear in the app. Changes that reduce your privacy will always be communicated before taking effect.
