Privacy Policy

Effective: June 1, 2026 · Last updated: June 1, 2026

SnapCal ("the app," "we," "us") is an iOS app that helps you recognize event details in screenshots and add them to your calendar. This policy explains what information we process, how we use it, and the choices you have.

1. Information we process

Screenshots and images you choose

When you select a screenshot or send an image via the system Share sheet, SnapCal reads it to recognize the event inside. Text recognition (OCR) runs on your device; to parse the recognized text into a structured event, the necessary text is sent to our third-party AI processing service. In a small number of complex-layout cases, a compressed image may be sent to improve recognition.

This content is used only for that recognition and is discarded after processing. It is not stored long-term on our servers and is not used to train AI models.

Calendar access

When you choose to sync an event to Google Calendar, Lark, or Outlook, we request authorization from that service so we can create only the events you confirm. Access tokens are stored securely on your device. We do not read, modify, or delete your other existing events, and we do not upload your calendar contents to our servers.

Account information (optional)

You can try recognition without signing in. If you choose to sign in (e.g., Sign in with Apple), we receive basic information used to identify your account (such as email and display name). Sign in with Apple lets you hide your real email.

Usage and subscription status

Your free-allowance count and subscription status are stored in your device's local storage to power the "10 free per month" logic. Subscription transactions are handled by the Apple App Store; we never see your payment details.

Device permissions

• Photos / Images: to let you choose the screenshot to recognize.
• Calendar: to write events you confirm into your local calendar.

2. Third-party services

To provide core functionality, SnapCal interacts with the following third parties. Their own privacy policies apply to the data they process:

• AI processing service: to parse screenshot text into a structured event.
• Google Calendar API: to create events once you authorize it.
• Lark (Feishu) Open Platform: to create events once you authorize it.
• Microsoft / Outlook Calendar: to create events once you authorize it.
• Apple App Store: to handle downloads and subscriptions.

3. What we don't do

• We don't sell your personal data.
• We don't use your screenshots or calendar contents for advertising.
• We don't read your photos or calendar without your action.
• We don't use your recognized content to train AI models.

4. Data retention and security

Recognition is transient: content used for parsing is discarded after processing. Subscription status, usage counts, and calendar access tokens are stored locally on your device. Deleting the app clears this local data. We apply reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect data in transit and during processing.

5. Children's privacy

SnapCal is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

6. Your rights and choices

• Revoke SnapCal's Photos or Calendar permissions anytime in system Settings.
• Revoke SnapCal's access in the security settings of your Google / Lark / Microsoft account.
• Delete the app to clear local data on your device.
• For further data access or deletion requests, contact us at the email below.

7. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Effective" date on this page. Please review it periodically.
