Cypress Receipting (retail-mobile) — Last updated 2026-06-29

Cypress Receipting ("the App") is a point-of-sale and EFRIS e-invoicing app for shops using the Cypress EFRIS platform. This page explains what information the App handles and why.

Who runs this app

The App is published by Cypress Efris Invoicing. Questions about this policy or your data can be sent to walugembe.john@gmail.com.

Information we collect

The App does not collect contacts, location, camera/microphone data, or any data not directly entered as part of making a sale.

How information is used

Sales data is submitted to your business's Cypress client-portal account, which issues the corresponding tax invoice through Uganda's EFRIS (Electronic Fiscal Receipting and Invoicing Solution) on your behalf, and makes the sale available to your business's own retail-erp system. This is solely to fulfil EFRIS e-invoicing requirements and your own business's sales records — it is not used for advertising or profiling.

Data stored on your device

To keep working without an internet connection, the App keeps a local copy of your product catalog and any sales made while offline, stored only on the device, until they can be sent to client-portal. This data is removed from the device once successfully submitted. Your device PIN/cashier PIN is stored only as a one-way hash, never in plain text.

Sharing

Sales/invoice data is shared only with: (1) Uganda's EFRIS system, as legally required for e-invoicing, and (2) your own business's client-portal and retail-erp systems. The App does not share data with advertisers, analytics providers, or any other third party, and contains no advertising or analytics SDKs.

Data retention

Sales/invoice records are retained in your business's client-portal and retail-erp systems per your business's own retention practices and EFRIS's legal requirements.

Children's privacy

The App is a business tool for shop staff and is not directed at, or knowingly used by, children.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the updated version will be published at this same address.
