Privacy Policy

Updated: November 7, 2025
Effective Date: November 7, 2025

Overview

ShotSnap ("we," "our," or "us") values your privacy and is committed to being transparent about how we handle your information. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and how we protect it.

ShotSnap is built with privacy by design — we collect only the minimal data necessary to provide subscriptions and improve performance. We never save your screenshots or prompts, and we never sell or share your personal data with third parties for marketing or advertising.

By using ShotSnap, you agree to this Privacy Policy.

Interpretation and Definitions

  • Application means the ShotSnap software provided for macOS or Windows.
  • Company ("we," "us," or "our") refers to ShotSnap.
  • Device means any device that can access the Service, such as a computer or tablet.
  • Personal Data refers to information that can identify an individual, such as a name or email address.
  • Service means the ShotSnap application and related website.
  • You means the individual using the Service.

1. Information We Collect

We collect only the data necessary to operate and improve ShotSnap.

A. Subscription and Account Data

When you purchase a subscription or create an account, we collect:

  • Your name
  • Your email address
  • Your payment or billing information (handled securely by Stripe)
  • Optional contact details for support or receipts

This information is used solely for managing your subscription, sending renewal reminders, and providing customer support.

We do not store your credit card details — all payment processing is securely handled by Stripe, which is PCI-DSS compliant.

B. Screenshot and AI Processing

When you use ShotSnap to take a screenshot and send it to the AI:

  • The screenshot is temporarily processed on your device.
  • It is transmitted securely and directly to OpenAI's API for AI processing.
  • We do not store or access the screenshot, prompt, or response.

All AI interactions are processed in real-time and never stored by ShotSnap.

C. Analytics Data

We use Aptabase to collect anonymous usage analytics. This helps us understand how people use the app and improve its performance.

Aptabase collects only non-personal data, such as:

  • App version and platform
  • General usage patterns (e.g., which features are used)
  • Performance metrics and crash reports

Aptabase does not collect screenshots, prompts, personal identifiers, or any user content.

2. How We Use Your Data

We use the collected information only for these purposes:

  • To provide and maintain your subscription.
  • To contact you regarding billing, updates, or support.
  • To improve the app experience through anonymous analytics.
  • To comply with legal obligations or resolve disputes if necessary.

We never sell, rent, or share your personal information with advertisers or third parties unrelated to ShotSnap's functionality.

3. Data Storage and Retention

  • Your subscription data (name, email, and billing records) is securely stored and retained only for as long as necessary to maintain your account or comply with tax and legal requirements.
  • Screenshot and AI data are not stored at all by ShotSnap.
  • Analytics data collected by Aptabase is aggregated and anonymized.

4. Third-Party Services

ShotSnap integrates with the following trusted services:

OpenAI API

Used for AI processing of screenshots. All screenshot data is transmitted via encrypted HTTPS and deleted by OpenAI per their retention policy.

Aptabase

Used for privacy-focused, anonymous analytics to help us improve performance.

Stripe

Used for secure subscription payments. We do not store your payment details. Your financial data is handled by Stripe in compliance with PCI-DSS and other industry-standard security protocols.
Privacy Policy: https://stripe.com/privacy

5. Security of Data

We take your privacy and security seriously:

  • All network communications use TLS/SSL encryption.
  • We store only minimal personal data (name, email, billing info).
  • We never store screenshots, prompts, or chat histories.
  • Our systems are monitored to prevent unauthorized access.

While no method of transmission over the internet is entirely secure, we implement industry-standard protections to keep your data safe.

6. Your Rights

Depending on your location (including under GDPR and CCPA), you may have the right to:

  • Access the personal information you have provided (name and email).
  • Update or correct your subscription details.
  • Request the deletion of your account information after canceling your subscription, provided that no legal or billing obligations require retention (for example, invoices or payment records).

Because ShotSnap does not store any screenshots, prompts, or AI data, there is no user-generated content to delete.

Requests can be made at privacy@shotsnap.ai.

7. Children's Privacy

ShotSnap is not designed for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect or store any data from children. If you believe a child has used the app and provided information, contact us immediately so we can remove it.

8. International Data Transfers

Your personal data (name and email) may be processed in other countries where our partners operate (e.g., OpenAI or Stripe). All transfers comply with applicable data protection laws and use secure, encrypted connections.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect new features or legal requirements. When we do, we'll update the "Effective Date" above.

Your continued use of ShotSnap after any change constitutes acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy.
