Terms of Service

Last updated 13 September 2026. Receipt Warden is operated by Park Tech Systems, ABN 21 250 757 796 (Australia). These terms describe the lifetime edition.

Using Receipt Warden means agreeing to what follows. It is written to be read, not to be impressive.

What we give you

Receipt Warden is software that runs on your device. We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to install and use it on devices you control, for as long as these terms are observed. You are licensed to use the app; you do not own it, and you may not redistribute, resell or reverse-engineer it beyond what Australian law permits.

Your data is yours

You keep ownership of everything you put into the app — receipts, images, warranties and notes. The app stores it locally unless you choose to share a file or use an external storage provider. We do not receive receipt content, and there is no server of ours holding a copy, as described in the Privacy Policy. Single receipt PDFs and restoration of an existing backup are Free, without purchasing Pro.

There is nothing to sign in to

Receipt Warden does not create or require an account, and asks for no credentials. Because we hold no copy of your records, we cannot recover them for you. If the device is lost, damaged, wiped or replaced, an external backup is needed to restore your collection. A backup left in app storage can be lost with the app.

Plans and payment

Optional deadline notifications, receipt backup creation, automatic local backups and portable exports require Pro. Pro lifetime is an optional A$4.99 one-time purchase in Australia. It is a non-consumable unlock with no renewal charge, not a subscription. Google Play displays the final localized price before purchase and processes the payment. Refund requests can be made through Google Play or our support contact; nothing in store terms or these terms limits your non-excludable rights under Australian Consumer Law.

Lifetime means the Pro unlock has no scheduled expiry. It does not promise indefinite compatibility with every future device or operating system, cloud storage, or automatic transfer between different app stores. Restore a valid purchase using the same store account on a supported device. Your receipt data is separate and must be transferred with a backup.

There is no receipt or scan quota. Receipt storage, on-device scanning, notes, categories, search, warranty dates, product evidence, claim PDFs, view/appearance choices, languages and single receipt PDFs are free, subject to available device storage. Restoring an existing backup is also free. When paid access ends, the app stops paid backup creation and cancels pending warranty notifications on its next entitlement refresh. A refund or revocation does not delete receipts, warranty records or existing backup files. Valid historical Pro, Business and lifetime Plus entitlements remain restorable. Historical subscriptions, if any, are managed separately through their store; no new subscription is offered by this edition.

Backup limitations

Backup photos are resized and JPEG-compressed copies to reduce file size; they are not identical to the full camera originals retained on your phone. Check that important fine print is readable before relying on an exported copy. Original photos captured by older app versions may already have been compressed; the update cannot recreate discarded detail.

Automatic backups require your consent, a writable selected destination, available storage and permission from the operating system to run. They are best effort, not an exact-time guarantee. Review the last successful backup status. Automatic local backups are unencrypted ZIP files; keep them private. Backups deliberately omit billing entitlements and reviewer access.

Manual exports may instead use a password-protected encrypted format, separate from a normal ZIP. We do not keep the password and cannot recover it. Losing the password can make that backup unusable. Date-selected exports cover only their stated period and linked evidence; they are not a full wallet backup. Safety bounds can reject oversized collections or files rather than omit proof silently. Restore adds copies, not overwrites.

A backup on the same phone may be lost with the phone. Copies saved outside the app depend on their destination's availability and access controls. Check the actual saved file and readable proof before relying on it.

Warranty notifications

Warranty tracking is free. Pro notifications are optional: switch each primary, return or extended-cover deadline on or off, or pause all notifications in Settings. They run on your phone, without a server. Delivery depends on notification permission, device settings and the operating system; it is not guaranteed. Opening the app refreshes the upcoming schedule. Check important dates yourself.

The scan form starts with an editable 12-month duration. Confirm the actual warranty terms and purchase date before relying on the expiry. This starting value is not a promise that every product has a one-year warranty, nor a limit on Australian consumer guarantees.

What the app does not promise

The receipt-paper view is an editable summary, not a merchant-issued receipt. Keep the photo or imported original as your proof. A warranty reminder is not a decision about your legal rights: Australian consumer guarantees may continue after a manufacturer's warranty ends. See the ACCC's warranty guidance.

Reading is automated, runs on your device, and will sometimes be wrong. Where the reader is not confident about a value it leaves the field blank rather than guessing, but you should check anything you rely on. You are responsible for the accuracy of what you claim, and for keeping whatever records the ATO requires of you.

The app is provided "as is". We work to keep it correct and working, but we do not warrant that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that automated reading will reach any particular accuracy.

Acceptable use

Don't use the app to break the law, don't put anything into it you have no right to hold, and don't tamper with the app or the device to unlock paid features you have not bought.

Third parties

The only built-in third-party service in Receipt Warden is billing: Google Play handles the store payment, with RevenueCat handling paid-plan status on our behalf. That path receives an anonymous app-scoped customer identifier, limited technical information and purchase or subscription status, governed by those providers' own terms — never your receipts, images or warranty records. Claim PDFs may render compatible temporary photo copies and flatten imported PDF content into visual evidence, without changing the source. Unsupported proof fails visibly rather than being omitted. Anything you export is a file produced on your device; where you then send it, and what happens to it afterwards, is up to you and outside these terms.

Ending it

There is no account to close, and none for us to suspend, because none was created. To end it, use Settings → Delete all data on this device, or uninstall the app. Either removes your records immediately and permanently: we hold no server copy, so there is no recovery window and no way for us to restore anything afterwards. Export first if you want to keep it. Deleting one receipt instead moves it to Recently deleted, where you can restore it or choose Delete forever; it and its images are permanently removed only when you choose Delete forever. Because a cached export can contain another copy, Delete forever also clears every export file and export-history record still managed by Receipt Warden. Copies you already saved or shared outside the app remain under your control and must be deleted at their destination. The full wipe and an uninstall are immediate for app-managed data, but they likewise cannot erase external copies. Deleting the app does not refund or revoke a lifetime purchase. Any historical subscription must be cancelled separately in its store.

Liability

Nothing here excludes rights you have under the Australian Consumer Law, which cannot be excluded. Subject to that, our liability arising out of your use of Receipt Warden is limited to the amount you paid for the Pro unlock. This limit applies only where the law permits it. In particular, and subject to that same law, we are not liable for the loss, corruption or unavailability of records held on your device — including loss caused by device failure, theft, damage, replacement, an operating-system or app removal, or your own deletion — because we never hold a copy from which anything could be restored.

Changes

We may update these terms. If a change materially affects your rights we will say so in the app rather than relying on this page changing quietly.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Western Australia, Australia.
