RentWise ("we", "the app") helps landlords and property managers track rent,
tenants and building expenses. This policy explains what we collect and why.
Information we collect
Account information you provide when registering: your name, email address, and phone number. You may sign in with an email & password or with Google Sign-In.
Property & tenant records you enter to run your business: property and unit details (type, rent, occupancy), tenant and owner names, contact numbers, lease/agreement terms, rent amounts, and remarks.
Money records you create: rent invoices, payments, utility and tax charges, and expenses (including expenses you mark as owner-only).
Requests & documents: maintenance requests and their comment threads, and any files you upload as documents.
Device push token (Firebase Cloud Messaging) so we can send you notifications.
RentWise does not collect your phone's location, contacts,
photos library, or advertising identifiers.
How we use it
To provide the service: storing your properties, units, tenants and money records, and showing your dashboards and reports.
To send operational notifications (for example, account approval, payment updates, or a new request).
To let you remind tenants via WhatsApp — the message opens in WhatsApp and you choose to send it.
To let tenants join by an emailed invite or a one-time code and then see only their own rent, requests and documents.
Sharing & third parties
Google Firebase (Authentication, Cloud Firestore, Cloud Functions, Cloud Messaging) stores your data and delivers notifications on our behalf.
Google Sign-In, if you choose it, verifies your identity; we receive your name and email, not your Google password.
WhatsApp: when you tap a reminder, the message is handed to WhatsApp on your device. We do not send messages automatically on your behalf.
We do not sell your data or share it for advertising.
Access & visibility
Access is scoped by role. An owner sees only their own properties, tenants and
money. A manager sees only the properties assigned to them, and never
sees expenses marked owner-only. A tenant sees only their own rent, requests and
documents. These rules are enforced on our servers, not just in the app.
Data retention & deletion
Records are kept while your account is active. You can request deletion of
your account and data at any time — see the
account deletion page. Residual copies
in encrypted backups are purged within 90 days.
Security
Data is transmitted over encrypted connections (HTTPS/TLS) and protected by
access rules so each account can only see its own data. Payments are recorded
through server-side functions, not written directly by the app.
Children
RentWise is a business tool intended for adults and is not directed at children under 13.
Your rights
You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your data by
contacting us.
