app.

Here’s a quick overview:
TravelSpend is an expense tracking application. Expenses you add in TravelSpend are not public. Friends who are included on a trip in TravelSpend can view, edit, create and delete expenses in that trip. You choose who you share your trips with.
You can create a TravelSpend account or use the app as an anonymous user. When you create an account we ask for your email address. We need this information to create an account so that we can contact you about your account and so you can access your
account from anywhere.
For all TravelSpend users we collect some other information, such as the type of device they use and country information based on their ip address. We may also collect information about the expenses they add, or the trips and expense categories they create.
We use this information to help improve our service.
You have control over the type of information you provide and how we use it. We don’t share your registration or personal information for marketing purposes. We will never share your information with other parties for use other than what’s laid out in
