SnapTextify OCR

Privacy Policy

Last Updated: June 6, 2026

At SnapTextify, we are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our Chrome Extension and associated services.

1. 100% Local and Offline Data Processing

We respect your data privacy. The core functionality of SnapTextify—including capturing screenshot coordinates and performing Optical Character Recognition (OCR)—runs fully offline inside your local browser context using local WebAssembly (Tesseract.js). We do not send your captured images, text selections, or extracted prompts to any remote server for processing. To establish complete transparency for security auditors, we have open-sourced our core offline OCR WebAssembly execution setup on GitHub: SnapTextify Core PoC.

2. Information We Collect

When you purchase a license key, we collect minimal personal information to manage your access:

3. Security of Your Information

Your license credentials and activation statuses are stored securely inside the Extension's Chrome Storage API locally, and synced securely using SSL/TLS encryption to our backend hosted on Supabase databases. We do not store or transmit financial information—all payments are securely processed by Razorpay, which complies with strict banking security standards.

4. Third-Party Services

Our website utilizes Razorpay to handle payments. Their collection and use of your payment details are governed by their respective Privacy Policies.

5. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We recommend checking this page periodically to remain informed of how we protect your data.

6. Contact Us

If you have any questions or feedback regarding this Privacy Policy, feel free to contact us at: support@snaptextify.com

7. Privacy Verification & Network Audit Guide

We believe in absolute transparency. Unlike cloud-based OCR products, SnapTextify runs entirely locally inside your browser. You can audit and verify this yourself at any time by following these steps:

  1. Open any webpage (e.g. YouTube) and open Google Chrome Developer Tools by pressing F12 or Ctrl+Shift+I (Cmd+Option+I on macOS).
  2. Navigate to the Network tab inside Developer Tools and check the Preserve log checkbox.
  3. Trigger SnapTextify by clicking the extension icon or pressing Alt+C, then drag a selection box over any text/video area.
  4. Inspect the Network list: you will see that **zero network requests** are sent during the image cropping and OCR text extraction process. All calculations occur inside a sandboxed WebAssembly container local to your system.

Our extension's manifest.json permissions do not request access to read full system details or intercept network calls. The code complies fully with the Chrome Web Store's program policies, and all operations execute without background tracking or outbound telemetry (as there is none).
