Snip is a personal library for links, photos, files and notes. This policy explains what happens to that information. In short: the developer does not collect it.
Nothing. Snip has no account, no analytics, no advertising and no third-party tracking code. The developer receives no data from the app.
Everything you save (titles, links, notes, tags, photos, files and the text recognised inside screenshots) is stored on your device. If iCloud is turned on for Snip, the same data is synced through your private iCloud (CloudKit) so it appears on your other devices. It is kept in your own iCloud account and is not readable by the developer.
When you save a link, Snip contacts that website from your device to fetch its title, icon and a copy of the page for offline reading. This is the same request your browser would make; it goes to the site you chose, not to the developer.
Text in saved images is recognised on your device. Images are not sent anywhere for this.
Locking a snip uses Face ID, Touch ID or your device passcode through Apple's system authentication. Snip never receives your biometric data. Locked content is excluded from search and from the share sheet.
When you share a snip, the system share sheet sends a file to the person or device you choose. Nothing is sent unless you do it.
Deleting an item or snip in Snip removes it from your device and, with iCloud on, from your iCloud copy. Deleting the app removes the on-device copy.
Snip does not collect personal information from anyone, including children.
