Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 2025
This Privacy Policy applies to all apps developed and published by “byhideono” (collectively, “we”, “our”, or “us”), including but not limited to:
- MeowSnap — Cat photo & map app
Unless otherwise noted in the App-specific Notes, our apps do not collect, share, or transmit personal data to external servers. All user data is stored locally on your device and remains under your control.
1. Information We Collect
By default, our apps do not send any personal data off your device. Depending on the app, locally stored data may include:
- User-generated content (e.g., photos, notes)
- Metadata such as dates, tags, and (if you allow) location
- In-app preferences and settings
2. How Your Data Is Used
Data is used solely to provide core app functionality on your device (e.g., organizing photos, displaying locations, keeping timer history). We do not sell, share, or transmit your data to third parties.
3. Location Data
Some apps (e.g., MeowSnap) may access your location only with your permission to tag content with a location. Location data is stored locally and is not uploaded or shared externally.
4. iCloud Backup
If you enable iCloud Backup on your device, app data may be backed up via Apple’s iCloud service. This process is governed by Apple’s Privacy Policy.
5. Permissions Used
Depending on the app, we may request the following permissions:
| Permission | Purpose (example) |
|---|---|
| Camera | Capture photos within the app |
| Photo Library | Store and display your saved media |
| Location | Tag content with where it was created |
6. Data Sharing & Third-party Services
Our apps do not include third-party analytics, advertising SDKs, or tracking libraries, unless explicitly stated in the App-specific Notes. Your data never leaves your device without your explicit action (e.g., exporting or sharing).
7. App-specific Notes
MeowSnap
- Uses Camera and Location (if allowed) to save cat photos with time and location.
- All photos, metadata, and maps are stored locally on your device.
