Paiko privacy policy

Updated 1 October 2026

The short version

Paiko keeps your shop book on your phone. There are no ads, no tracking, and we do not sell data. Paiko never holds or moves money. A payment in Paiko is a record you write, not a transfer.

What stays on your phone

Your shop profile, clients, items and prices, invoices, quotes, receipts, payments, payment photos, and shop logo are saved in Paiko's private storage on this phone. They are left out of Google backup. Uninstalling Paiko or clearing its storage deletes them.

Cloud backup (only if you sign in)

Signing in is optional. If you sign in with an email or phone code, your email address or phone number is kept by our sign-in service so you can come back to your account. When you tap Back up, a copy of your book (shop profile, clients, items, slips, and payments) is saved in our cloud database. Payment photos and the shop logo are not uploaded. Only your account can read your copy. The sign-in service and database are run for us by Supabase.

Sending slips and reminders

When you share a PDF or message, Paiko hands it to the app you choose, such as WhatsApp or your SMS app. You press send there. Paiko does not send messages on its own. The other app's own privacy policy covers what it does with the message.

Camera and photos

Paiko asks for no camera or storage permission. When you add a payment photo or a logo, the phone's own camera or photo picker opens, and only the photo you choose comes back to Paiko.

Internet

Paiko uses the internet only for sign-in and cloud backup, when you ask for them. Everything else works offline.

Deleting your data

On the phone: clear Paiko's storage or uninstall the app. In the cloud: open Settings, then About Paiko, then Delete cloud account. This deletes your sign-in and every cloud backup for it. You can also email support@paiko.app, or use the delete-account page.

Children

Paiko is a business tool for adults. It is not meant for children.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version is shown in the app and on this page with a new date.
