Privacy Policy for Snippet
Last updated: September 15, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Snippet ("we", "our", or "the application"), developed by Liquid Labs Inc., handles information when you use our mobile application (Application ID: dev.hossain.codesnippet).
1. Summary: Offline-First & Zero Tracking
Snippet is built on an offline-first, privacy-respecting architecture:
- No Personal Data Collected: We do not collect, store, sell, or transmit your name, email, phone number, physical location, or personal identity.
- No Analytics or Telemetry SDKs: The application does not contain Google Analytics, Firebase Analytics, Sentry, Facebook SDK, or any marketing or advertising trackers.
- No Advertising: Snippet does not display advertisements or access your Android Advertising ID.
2. Information Handled on Your Device
A. Local Code Snippets & Notes
All code snippets, tags, timestamps, and search indexes you create or import are saved locally on your device in a private SQLite database managed by Android Jetpack Room. We have zero access to your code notebook.
B. User Credentials & API Keys
If you configure an AI service API key (such as Cloudflare Workers AI or OpenRouter) or a GitHub Personal Access Token (PAT), these credentials are saved locally on your device in secure, private application storage (Android Jetpack DataStore). Credentials are never transmitted to the application developer or any third party other than the specific API provider you explicitly configure.
3. Third-Party Service Interactions (User-Initiated)
Snippet does not run an intermediary server. Any external communication occurs directly between your device and the third-party service provider you explicitly interact with:
-
GitHub API (
api.github.com): When you connect a GitHub Personal Access Token to sync Gists, your device connects directly to GitHub's servers over secure HTTPS. GitHub's processing of your data is governed by the GitHub Privacy Statement. - AI Language Model Providers (BYOK): When you prompt the AI Code Assistant, your query and configured API key are sent over secure HTTPS directly to your selected provider (e.g. Cloudflare Workers AI or OpenRouter). Interaction data is governed by the privacy policy of your respective AI provider.
4. Device Permissions
Snippet requests only the minimal necessary permission to function:
android.permission.INTERNET: Required solely for user-directed AI chat queries and GitHub Gist syncing.
Snippet does not request access to device location, contacts, calendar, camera, microphone, or external storage.
5. Data Retention & Deletion
Because all your data is stored locally on your device:
- You can delete any snippet, tag, or conversation at any time from within the app interface.
- You can clear your API keys or disconnect GitHub at any time in Settings.
- Clearing the application data in Android Settings or uninstalling the app permanently removes all local data from your device.
6. Open Source Components
Snippet is powered by open-source libraries and standards, including the syntax highlighting engine compose-highlight.
