Privacy Policy
Effective 12 November 2026
Pocketree helps families plan money together: budgets, savings goals, and kids’ pocket money. This policy explains what information the app uses, where it is kept, and the choices you have. Pocketree is published by Gagus Enterprise, Malaysia (“we”, “us”).
The short version
- Your family’s money data stays on your phone. We don’t receive it.
- If you link a kid’s phone (Premium), that kid’s wallet and the chores they send are stored on our servers so both phones can see them.
- You don’t need an account. Apart from linked kids’ phones, we only store what you choose to post in Community.
- Premium is paid through Google Play. We never see your card or payment details.
- No ads, no analytics or tracking tools, and we never sell your information.
1. Information kept only on your device
Income, budgets, expenses, savings goals, investments, kids’ wallets, chores, pocket-money settings, quiz progress, family member names and profile photos, and your language, currency and theme are saved in the app’s storage on your phone. This data is not uploaded to our servers, except for the kid-phone data described in section 2.
Because it lives on your device, uninstalling the app or clearing its data deletes it permanently, and it is not backed up by us.
2. Information we collect
| What | When | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Community posts: the display name you choose, your message, and an optional photo | Only when you post or reply in Community | To show your post to other Pocketree users and to answer feedback. Posts are public inside the app, so please don’t include private details. |
| Linked kid’s wallet: the kid’s name, initials and avatar colour, wallet balance, pocket-money settings, chores and rewards | Only when a parent links a kid’s phone (Premium), and each time the parent’s phone updates that kid | So the kid can see their own wallet and chores on their phone. Profile photos are not uploaded. |
| Chores sent from a kid’s phone: chore name, reward, the time it was done, and an optional photo the kid takes | Only when the kid taps “I did it” | So a parent can check and approve the chore. Photos are re-saved by the app without location or camera details, kept private, and only visible to that family’s parents and that kid. |
| A random app sign-in ID for each linked phone | When a phone links to a family | To make sure only your family’s phones can see your family’s kid data. It is not tied to your name, email or phone number. |
| Basic technical data (such as IP address and request time) | Automatically when the app talks to our servers | Kept briefly in server logs for security and to fix problems. |
Pocketree does not ask you to create an account, and we don’t collect your name, email address or phone number to use the app.
Premium purchases
Premium subscriptions are sold and billed by Google Play under Google’s terms and privacy policy. Payment details go to Google, not to us. The app only checks with Google Play on your phone whether your subscription is active. Manage or cancel it anytime in Google Play → Payments & subscriptions.
3. How information is stored and shared
Community data and linked-kid data are hosted by our service provider Supabase, which processes it on our behalf and may store it outside Malaysia. All data is sent over encrypted connections (HTTPS).
We do not sell, rent or share your information with advertisers or data brokers. We only disclose information if the law requires it.
4. Children
Pocketree is made for parents and guardians. Kids’ features such as wallets, chores and the money quiz are set up and managed by a parent. A parent may choose to link a child’s phone; the child can only join with a one-time code from the parent’s phone, which shows that the parent agrees. On a linked phone the child can see their own wallet and send done chores with a time and an optional photo, as listed in section 2. We use this only to run the feature: no ads, no tracking, and nothing is shared with other users. Children do not need an account and never give us an email or phone number. A parent can unlink a child’s phone at any time in Settings → Kids’ phones, and can ask us to delete that child’s data (see section 5). Community is intended for adults. If you believe a child has posted personal information, contact us and we will remove it.
5. Your choices and rights
- Delete on-device data: clear the app’s data or uninstall the app.
- Delete your Community posts: email us with the name you posted under and roughly when, and we will delete them within 30 days.
- Delete a linked kid’s data: unlink the phone in Settings → Kids’ phones, then email us and we will delete that kid’s wallet, chores and photos within 30 days.
- Access or correct: you may ask for a copy of the information we hold about you, or ask us to correct it.
We handle requests in line with Malaysia’s Personal Data Protection Act 2010 and other laws that apply to you.
6. Keeping data
Community posts stay until you or a moderator removes them. Linked-kid data stays while the family uses the feature or until a parent asks us to delete it. The app shows only the last 14 days of chores. Server logs are kept for a short time and then removed.
7. Changes
If we change this policy, we will update the date above. If the change is significant, we will also tell you in the app.
