Snoot

Effective September 25, 2026

Privacy Policy

Snoot is a general-audience iPhone app and website about dogs. It does not require an account or build an advertising profile. Starting with Snoot 2.0.2, sharing usage counts is optional and off until you choose it.

Who operates Snoot

Snoot is operated by Elan Anbalahan in Spain. For privacy questions, contact support@snootfolio.com.

What the Snoot app does

Snoot does not require an account. It does not use advertising, cross-app tracking for advertising, third-party analytics SDKs, crash-reporting SDKs, cloud sync, in-app purchases, push notifications, or a user profile.

Snoot stores your opened and kept stories, local release markers, last section, and usage-count choice on your device. Your saved library and full reading history are not copied to a Snoot account or server. If you choose to share usage counts, individual app actions described below are sent to be combined into daily totals.

Optional usage counts

Starting with Snoot 2.0.2, usage counts are off unless you choose to share them in Snoot’s one-time notice or turn them on in About Snoot → Privacy & usage. When enabled, the app sends fixed counts of adult stories and breed pages opened, explicit Keep actions, share-sheet actions, sections visited, rounded foreground time, narration starts/natural finishes/coarse failures, and coarse content-loading outcomes. These counts help us improve Snoot.

Measurements contain fixed event names and public Snoot content identifiers where applicable. They do not contain account, user, device, install, or session identifiers; names, email addresses, location, search text, saved-library contents, recipients, or client timestamps. Snoot does not use analytics or advertising SDKs, session replay, or fingerprinting.

Our first-party collector combines accepted measurements into daily totals. It does not keep individual measurement records or reading histories. Daily totals are retained for 90 days. Cloudflare database recovery backups may retain deleted aggregate totals for an additional seven days on the Free plan currently used. We do not use these totals to identify you or link activity across visits, apps, or websites.

You can turn usage counts off at any time in About Snoot → Privacy & usage. This stops future analytics requests and clears pending measurements in the app. Totals already combined with other measurements are not associated with you, so we cannot locate and remove an individual contribution.

Editorial and media delivery

The app retrieves current Snoot editorial releases and related media from Snoot’s Cloudflare/R2 delivery infrastructure. Cloudflare acts as a service provider that delivers requested content. Snoot does not use this delivery to build behavioural profiles or to track you across apps or websites.

Network providers necessarily process technical request information, such as an IP address and request metadata, to deliver and protect a request. For optional usage counts, Snoot’s collector does not read or store IP addresses, derive identifiers from them, or record request headers; request logging and tracing are disabled. Cloudflare security systems may process network metadata separately from Snoot’s aggregate database. The aggregate database is configured for EU storage, but Cloudflare’s network processing can occur outside the EU.

Sharing

Adult Story Deck stories and breed pages may be shared as public Snoot web pages. When you choose Send, the iOS system share sheet receives the public link you chose to share. Little Ears uses a public story link when available, with local text as a fallback.

Snoot does not receive the recipients you select or the contents you add in another app. If optional usage counts are enabled, Snoot counts adult-story and breed share-sheet presentation and whether iOS reports completion or cancellation; it does not collect a destination, recipient, message, or returned attachment. Little Ears share actions are not measured.

Little Ears

Little Ears includes read-aloud audio and story-specific notes for grown-ups. It does not create child accounts, collect child profiles, use targeted advertising, accept user-generated content, or provide social or messaging features. Snoot is family-friendly but is not a Kids Category app.

Support email

If you email Snoot, we receive the information you choose to send, which may include your email address, message, screenshots, device details, and issue description. We use it to respond to you, resolve issues, and improve Snoot.

We keep support correspondence only as long as reasonably needed for those purposes or as required by law.

Website

The Snoot website does not use advertising pixels or behavioural web analytics. It may contain public pages for adult stories and breed pages. Those pages are delivered through Cloudflare and may process technical request information as described above.

Your rights and changes

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, object to, or receive a copy of personal information we hold about you. For Snoot, that will ordinarily be information you voluntarily provide in support email. Contact support@snootfolio.com to make a request.

Changes

We may update this policy as Snoot changes. We will update it and the App Store privacy disclosure before changing the optional usage-count practice, adding an account, advertising, purchases, cloud sync, or another data practice that changes this description.
