Privacy Policy
Last updated: 1 October 2026
This policy explains what information ClearInvoices (clearinvoices.in) handles when you use the website.
1. No account, no signup
You can create invoices without any account and without giving any personal details. What you type (business name, GSTIN, addresses, customer details, items, UPI ID, bank details, logo, signature, notes and template) is kept in your own browser while you work. Your browser also remembers your business details and your last draft on your device so that you do not have to type them again. You can turn this off with the "Remember my business details" box, or remove it with "Clear saved details".
When an invoice is saved on our server: when you download, share or copy the link of an invoice, that invoice, including any bank details and signature you added to it, is saved on our own server so that it can get its invoice number and its short link. Anyone who has the invoice link can see these details, so add bank details only if you want your customers to see them. We do not ask for your email or name for this. To limit misuse we keep a one-way hash of your network (IP) address with request counts; the address itself is not stored.
My invoices: your browser keeps a random private key. We store only a one-way hash of that key with your saved invoices, so that "My invoices" can show them on the same browser. If you clear your browser data, you can no longer list or manage those invoices, but their links keep working until we delete them. To have a particular invoice removed, email us the invoice number or link.
Short links: every saved invoice gets a short random link. Anyone who has the link can see that invoice, so share it only with the people you want. In "My invoices" you can turn a link off. Invoice pages are not meant for search engines.
Plans: if you tell us you are interested in a paid plan, we save your email address and that choice so that we can email you when paid plans start.
Invoice numbers: invoices saved on our server get their numbers from one common series for all users, so the numbers of one business may not be consecutive.
