1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how SilkySnip by Silky Apple Technologies handles your data. SilkySnip is an offline-first screenshot and visual intelligence tool. We built it with a "private-by-design" philosophy.
2. Data Collection and Usage
SilkySnip operates entirely offline on your device. We do not collect, transmit, or store your screenshots, text extractions (OCR), annotations, or any other personal data on our servers.
All Optical Character Recognition (OCR) processing is performed locally on your device using native Apple Vision frameworks. Your images and extracted text never leave your computer.
3. Where Data Is Stored
All screenshots, temporary buffers, and saved annotations are stored locally in your device's secure file system. We do not use cloud synchronization or third-party storage providers for your captures.
4. Third-Party Services
SilkySnip does not integrate with any third-party analytics, tracking, or advertising networks. We do not sell or share any of your data, because we do not collect it in the first place.
5. Security
By keeping all data and processing strictly on your device, SilkySnip eliminates the risks associated with cloud data breaches. We rely on macOS's built-in sandbox and security mechanisms to protect your data locally.
6. Children's Privacy
SilkySnip is not intended for use by children. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of 13 (or under 16 in the EEA/UK). Because the app operates entirely offline and does not collect data, children's data is never transmitted to us.
