Privacy

Snapty’s promise: your screenshots never leave your browser. Everything below is what that promise does - and does not - cover.

What stays on your device

Images & annotations

Screenshots you open, paste, or capture are processed entirely on your device. They are never uploaded, never stored on a server, and never shared.

Editing & effects

Blur, pixelate, spotlight, OCR text extraction, and every annotation render locally. The OCR engine (Tesseract) runs in your browser.

Autosave

A draft of your current session is saved to your browser's IndexedDB so you can recover it after a refresh. It stays on your device.

Preferences

Tool settings and theme are remembered in localStorage so your choices survive a reload.

Anonymous usage analytics

Google Analytics 4

The site can load GA4 (gtag.js) to understand anonymous usage - which pages are visited and roughly which browsers are used. It never sees your images or annotations. IP addresses are anonymized.

Opt out

Open Settings → “Usage analytics” and switch it off. GA stops loading entirely; your choice is remembered in your browser.

Third-party requests

Your images are never sent to third parties. The only external request is the analytics tag itself when you leave it on.

This project is open source. Anything that runs here is visible in the repository on GitHub. Questions? Open an issue there.
