1. Acceptance of Terms
By downloading, installing, or using Chortke ("the App"), you agree to these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you don't agree, please don't use the app.
2. What Chortke Does
Chortke helps you track personal finances by importing bank statement PDFs and organizing your transactions locally on your device. We are not a bank, financial advisor, or money transmitter.
3. Your Data & Ownership
You retain full ownership of all your financial data. We do not claim any rights to your data because:
- Your data never leaves your device (unless you choose to share)
- We have no access to your financial information
- You control all data import, export, and deletion
4. Subscription Terms
Free Features: Basic statement import and transaction tracking are free.
Premium Features: Advanced features require a subscription:
- Monthly or annual billing options
- Auto-renewal unless canceled 24 hours before period end
- Manage subscriptions in iOS Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions
5. Free Trial
Free trials may be offered. If you don't cancel before the trial ends, you will be charged for a subscription. Cancel anytime during the trial to avoid charges.
All payments are processed by Apple. Apple's terms govern payment processing.
6. Statement Sharing Program
You may voluntarily share bank statements to help us improve bank support.
How It Works
- You choose to share a statement when prompted or via Settings
- The statement is sent via your device's email app
- We use it solely to create parsing templates for that bank

- Subject to availability and our discretion
- Not guaranteed and may be modified or discontinued
- Limited to one reward per user
- Non-transferable and has no cash value
Your Rights
You can request immediate deletion of any shared statement at kasabeh.tech/chortke/delete.
License Grant
By sharing a statement, you grant us a limited license to use that statement solely for the purpose of improving our bank statement parsing capabilities. This license terminates when we delete your statement.
7. Refunds

Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.
