Smart Pocket does not guarantee the accuracy of AI-generated classifications, interpretations, recommendations, or extracted information.
7. Voice Processing
Where voice features are available, Smart Pocket may process audio or transcripts necessary to interpret your instructions.
Depending on implementation, audio may be processed by third-party speech or AI service providers.
We will not intentionally use voice data for biometric identification unless a specific feature requiring such processing is introduced and legally appropriate notice and consent are provided.

Performance of a Contract
Processing necessary to create your account and provide the Smart Pocket Services you request.

- protecting our legal rights;
- maintaining operational records; and

Where required, we balance these interests against your rights and interests.
Legal Obligations
Processing necessary to comply with applicable law, regulatory requirements, court orders, taxation requirements, accounting obligations, or lawful government requests.
Protection of Rights and Safety
Processing necessary where appropriate to protect users, Smart Pocket, third parties, or the public from fraud, abuse, security threats, or unlawful conduct.
14. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We may use analytics tools to understand how users interact with Smart Pocket.
Analytics may include information such as:
- pages viewed;
- feature usage;
- session duration;
- device information;

We may receive information such as:

- transaction identifier;
- subscription status;

17. How We Share Personal Information
We may share personal information only where reasonably necessary with categories of recipients such as:

- prospective purchasers or successors in a legitimate corporate transaction.
We require service providers to process information in accordance with contractual, confidentiality, security, and legal obligations appropriate to their role.
18. No Sale of Personal Information
Smart Pocket does not sell personal information for monetary consideration.
If our practices change in a manner that constitutes a “sale” or “sharing” under applicable privacy law, we will provide legally required disclosures and opt-out mechanisms.
Where applicable, users will not be discriminated against for exercising statutory privacy rights. California privacy law expressly recognises rights relating to knowledge, deletion, opt-out of sale or sharing, and non-discrimination.
19. Advertising and Marketing
We may send information concerning:
- product updates;
- new Smart Pocket features;
- educational information;
- offers;
- promotions; and
- company announcements.
Where marketing consent is required, we will obtain it.
You may unsubscribe from promotional communications using the unsubscribe mechanism provided or by contacting us.
Unsubscribing from marketing will not prevent us from sending essential:
- account communications;
- security alerts;
- billing notices;
- service notices;
- password/authentication messages; or
- other transactional communications.
20. International Data Transfers
Smart Pocket is based in the United Arab Emirates.
Some providers we use may process personal information in other countries.
As a result, information may be transferred to and processed in jurisdictions with privacy laws that differ from those of your country.
Where required by applicable law, we will implement appropriate safeguards for international transfers, which may include:
- contractual safeguards;
- legally recognised transfer mechanisms;
- adequacy mechanisms;
- security controls; and
- additional protective measures.
The UAE Personal Data Protection Law contains requirements relating to cross-border transfers of personal information.
21. Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for legitimate purposes, including:
- providing the Services;
- maintaining your account;
- fulfilling contractual obligations;
- meeting accounting obligations;
- meeting tax obligations;
- maintaining security records;
- detecting abuse;
- resolving disputes;
- enforcing agreements;
- complying with legal obligations; and
- establishing or defending legal claims.
Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the legal or operational purpose for which it is retained.
When information is no longer reasonably required, we may:
- delete it;
- anonymise it;
- aggregate it; or
- securely archive it where permitted or required.
Backup systems may retain deleted information temporarily until routine backup rotation removes it.
22. Account Deletion
Where available, you may initiate account deletion through Smart Pocket or contact us to request deletion.
Before processing a deletion request, we may:
- verify your identity;
- verify account ownership;
- warn you about irreversible consequences;
- permit or recommend data export;
- preserve information required by law; or
- retain limited records necessary for fraud prevention, security, dispute resolution, tax, accounting, or legal purposes.
Deletion may be irreversible.
Deleting your account does not necessarily require immediate deletion of information that we are legally entitled or required to retain.
23. Data Security
We maintain reasonable administrative, organisational, and technical measures intended to protect personal information.
Depending on the nature of the Services, safeguards may include:
- authentication controls;
- role-based access controls;
- database access restrictions;
- encryption in transit;
- encryption at rest where appropriate;
- secure hosting;
- logging;
- monitoring;
- backups;
- restricted administrative privileges;
- software updates;
- security testing;
- incident-response procedures; and
- other appropriate measures.
However, no internet-connected platform, storage system, transmission method, or security measure can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Accordingly, Smart Pocket cannot guarantee absolute security.
Users are responsible for:
- protecting passwords;
- protecting authentication credentials;
- securing devices;
- maintaining access to associated email accounts;
- logging out of shared devices; and
- notifying us promptly of suspected unauthorised account access.
24. Security Incidents
If we become aware of a personal-data breach, we will assess the incident and take steps required under applicable law.
Where legally required, we may notify:
- affected users;
- relevant regulatory authorities; or
- other appropriate parties.
Nothing in this Privacy Policy guarantees that every security event will require notification.
Notification obligations depend on applicable law and the nature and risk of the incident.
25. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights including the right to:
- know whether we process your personal information;

- request information about recipients;
- request information about international transfers;
- lodge a complaint with an appropriate authority; and
- exercise rights relating to automated decision-making where applicable.
These categories closely reflect the rights recognised under GDPR-style frameworks, including access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, objection, and protections regarding certain automated decisions.
Rights are not absolute and may be subject to legal exceptions.
26. How to Exercise Your Rights
To submit a privacy request, contact:
Email: saaspersonalexp@gmail.com
Please include enough information for us to identify the relevant account and understand your request.
We may request reasonable identity verification before processing the request.
We may refuse or limit a request where permitted by law, including where a request is:
- manifestly unfounded;
- excessive;
- fraudulent;
- technically impossible;
- inconsistent with another person's rights; or

Where applicable law imposes a response period, we will endeavour to respond within that period.
27. Automated Decision-Making
Smart Pocket may use automated systems and artificial intelligence to:
- categorise transactions;
- extract receipt information;
- generate summaries;
- identify patterns;
- suggest transaction details;
- organise information; or
- provide related functionality.
Unless expressly disclosed otherwise, Smart Pocket does not intend these systems to make decisions producing legal or similarly significant effects about users without appropriate human involvement.
Where applicable law grants rights relating to automated decision-making or profiling, users may exercise those rights.
28. Accuracy of Financial and AI Information
Smart Pocket is designed as an organisational and personal-finance management tool.
Information generated or displayed by Smart Pocket may depend on:
- information entered by you;
- third-party data;
- AI interpretation;
- exchange-rate sources;
- calculations;
- categorisation logic; and
- technical processing.
You should independently verify information before making important financial, contractual, tax, investment, legal, or business decisions.
Nothing provided through Smart Pocket constitutes:
- financial advice;
- investment advice;
- tax advice;
- legal advice;
- accounting advice; or
- banking advice.
29. Children and Minors
Smart Pocket is not intended for individuals who lack legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement or validly consent to personal-data processing under applicable law.
We do not knowingly solicit personal information from children where parental or guardian authorisation is legally required.
If you believe that a child has improperly provided personal information, contact us.
We may delete or restrict such information where appropriate.
30. Third-Party Services
Smart Pocket may integrate with or contain links to third-party services.
Examples may include:
- Google authentication;
- payment processors;
- AI providers;
- email providers;
- cloud services;
- analytics tools; and
- external websites.
Third-party services operate according to their own terms and privacy policies.
Smart Pocket is not responsible for the independent privacy, security, content, availability, or conduct of third-party services.
31. Business Transfers
If Smart Pocket or its legal entity undergoes:
- merger;
- acquisition;
- restructuring;
- financing;
- sale;
- insolvency;
- reorganisation; or
- transfer of all or part of its business or assets,
personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction where lawful.
Any successor receiving personal information will be required to handle it in accordance with applicable law.
32. Legal Disclosure and Protection of Rights
We may preserve, access, or disclose information where we reasonably believe it is necessary to:
- comply with applicable law;
- comply with legal process;
- comply with a court order;
- respond to lawful government requests;
- enforce agreements;
- investigate suspected fraud;
- investigate abuse;
- protect Smart Pocket's rights;
- protect user safety;
- prevent security threats; or
- establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.
Where legally permitted, we may challenge requests that we consider unlawful, excessive, or inappropriate.
33. Data Anonymisation and Aggregation
We may create aggregated or de-identified information that does not reasonably identify an individual.
We may use such information for:
- analytics;
- security;
- product development;
- statistics;
- research;
- performance improvement; and
- business planning.
Where information has been properly anonymised so that it is no longer personal information under applicable law, this Privacy Policy may no longer apply to that information.
34. Service Providers and Subprocessors
Smart Pocket may change service providers as the platform develops.
We may add, replace, or remove providers where reasonably necessary for:
- security;
- performance;
- functionality;
- infrastructure;
- AI processing;
- payment processing;
- communication; or
- other operational needs.
We are not required to obtain individual user approval every time a provider changes unless applicable law or an existing contractual commitment requires it.
Where required, appropriate processor or data-protection agreements will be maintained.
35. Changes to the Services
Smart Pocket may introduce new functionality, integrations, applications, devices, AI features, or financial-management tools.
Where a new feature materially changes how personal information is processed, we will update this Privacy Policy or provide additional notice where appropriate.
36. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may modify this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in:
- applicable laws;
- regulations;
- technology;
- security practices;
- business practices;
- service providers;
- Smart Pocket functionality; or
- organisational structure.
The updated version will display a revised Last Updated date.
Where required by law or where changes are materially significant, we may provide additional notice through:
- the Services;
- email;
- account notifications; or
- another appropriate method.
Your continued use of the Services after an update does not waive any consent requirement that applicable law requires us to obtain separately.
37. Jurisdiction-Specific Privacy Rights
Privacy rights vary by jurisdiction.
Where laws such as the UAE Personal Data Protection Law, European GDPR, UK GDPR, California privacy laws, or other applicable privacy statutes apply to a particular user, Smart Pocket will endeavour to honour the rights and obligations required by those laws.
Nothing in this Privacy Policy is intended to waive, restrict, or eliminate rights that cannot legally be waived.
38. Complaints
If you have concerns about our processing of personal information, please contact us first so we can investigate.
You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with the privacy or data-protection authority responsible for your jurisdiction.
In the UAE, Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 establishes the federal personal-data protection framework, and the UAE Data Office is identified by the UAE Government as the federal regulator responsible for data-protection policy and oversight.
