ZikPe requests access to SMS messages solely to detect UPI and wallet transaction confirmations for the purpose of automatic transaction reconciliation and balance updates.

ZikPe does not read, store, transmit, or share the content of personal or non-financial SMS messages. SMS data used for transaction detection is processed on-device and is not retained beyond what is necessary to complete the associated transaction record.
Use of Your Personal Data
Personal data is utilized to provide services and communicate regulatory information.
Cookies
Small files transferred to device hard drives enable site systems to recognize browsers and remember information. ZikPe uses cookies to distinguish users, save preferences, track advertisements, and compile traffic data. Third-party service providers may assist in understanding site visitors but cannot use collected information beyond this purpose.
Third-party cookies may appear on certain app sections, over which ZikPe has no control. Personal correspondence like emails may be collected in user-specific files.
