Who is responsible
Collecto is developed by ZestyBeanz Technologies Private Limited (“ZestyBeanz”, “we”). The app does not have its own server or user database. It connects only to the Odoo server of the company you work for (your “employer”), using the server address and login your employer gives you.
Your employer decides what data is kept in its Odoo system, who can see it, and for how long. For data stored in your employer’s Odoo, your employer is responsible, and their own privacy notice applies. This policy explains what the app itself does with information.
Information the app handles
Collecto collects only what it needs to sign you in, show your assigned invoices and record cheque collections.
| Information | Why | Where it is kept |
|---|---|---|
| Odoo server address and database name | To connect to your employer’s system. | Your phone |
| Username and password | To sign you in, and to sign you back in automatically when your session expires. The password is kept in the phone’s secure storage (Android Keystore, iOS Keychain) and is removed when you sign out. | Your phone Your employer’s Odoo |
| Session cookie | To keep you signed in. Removed when you sign out. | Your phone |
| Your name, login and company | Shown on the home and profile screens. Read from Odoo after sign-in. | Your employer’s Odoo |
| Company logo | Shown on the home screen. A copy is saved on the phone so it appears straight away. | Your phone Your employer’s Odoo |
| Invoices assigned to you, and their customers’ names, addresses, GST details and amounts | To show what to deliver and collect. Read from Odoo each time; not stored on the phone. | Your employer’s Odoo |
| Cheque details you enter: date, number, amount, bank, remarks and allocations | To record the collection against the invoice. | Your employer’s Odoo |
| Photo of the cheque | Proof of collection, required before a cheque can be saved. Uploaded to Odoo with the cheque. | Your employer’s Odoo |
| Delivery status and time | The invoice is marked as delivered, with the date and time, once its full amount is collected. | Your employer’s Odoo |
| An unsaved cheque entry | Kept briefly so your work is not lost if the phone closes the app while the camera is open. Removed when you save or discard the entry. | Your phone |
The app does not use advertising, analytics or tracking services, and it does not collect your contacts, messages, call logs or other files on your phone. The current version does not collect your location.
Camera and photos
The app asks for camera access only when you tap Take photo on a cheque, and for your photo library only when you tap Gallery. It reads the single photo you take or choose, and nothing else in your library. You can turn these permissions off at any time in your phone’s settings; you will then not be able to attach a cheque photo.
How it is used
- To sign you in to your employer’s Odoo and keep your session active.
- To show the invoices assigned to you and what is still due on them.
- To record cheque collections, their photos and the delivery status in Odoo.
- To show your company’s logo and your profile.
We do not use this information for marketing, profiling or any purpose other than running the app for your employer.
Security
- Your password is stored encrypted in the phone’s secure storage, never in plain text.
- Data is sent over HTTPS when your employer’s Odoo server uses an https:// address. Employers should always use HTTPS.
- Odoo’s own access rights decide which invoices and records you can see or change.
No method of storage or transmission is completely secure, but we take reasonable steps to protect the information the app handles.
Keeping and deleting data
- On your phone: signing out removes your session and saved password. Uninstalling the app removes everything it stored, including the server settings and the cached company logo.
- In your employer’s Odoo: cheques, photos and delivery records are kept according to your employer’s policies and legal record-keeping duties.
Your user account is created and managed by your employer in Odoo, not in the app. To close your account or delete data held in Odoo, contact your employer’s administrator.
Your choices and rights
Depending on where you live, including under India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, you may have the right to access, correct or erase your personal data, and to withdraw consent. For data held in your employer’s Odoo, send your request to your employer. For questions about how the app works, contact us using the details below and we will help or pass your request on.
Children
Collecto is a business app for employees. It is not meant for children, and we do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18.
Changes
If the app starts handling new kinds of information, for example recording delivery location, we will update this policy and the effective date above before that version is released.
