Effective Date: April 2, 2026
1. Introduction
Welcome to InstaSnap ("we," "our," or "us"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website [https://instasnap.app] and use our mobile application (collectively, the "Services").
We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it. By accessing or using our Services, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with the terms of this privacy policy, please do not access the site or our application.
2. Information We Collect
Because InstaSnap is designed to be a "No Login Required" platform, we do not collect personally identifiable information (PII) like your name, email address, or phone number unless you explicitly contact us for support.
A. Information Collected Automatically (Web & App) When you use our Services, we may automatically collect certain non-personal data, including:
- Device Data: Device type, operating system, unique device identifiers (e.g., Android Advertising ID), browser type, and language.
- Log Data: IP addresses, time and date of access, pages viewed, and the referring URL.
- Usage Data: How you interact with our website or app (e.g., buttons clicked, features used).
B. App Specific Permissions (For Mobile App Users) To provide our core functionality (downloading media), our mobile application requires specific device permissions:
- Storage Permission: We require "Read/Write External Storage" permission solely to save downloaded videos, photos, and stories directly to your device's gallery. We do not access, scan, or upload your personal photos or files.
- Network Access: Required to connect to the internet to fetch and download media files.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the collected information for the following purposes:
- To process your download requests and deliver the media files to your device.
- To maintain, improve, and optimize the performance of our Website and App.
- To serve personalized and non-personalized advertisements (via Google AdSense/AdMob) to keep the Service free.
- To analyze user trends and traffic using analytics tools to enhance user experience.
- To detect, prevent, and address technical or security issues.
4. Third-Party Services & Google Policies
We use third-party services that may collect information used to identify you. These services operate under their own privacy policies.
A. Google Analytics We use Google Analytics to track and report website traffic. Google uses the data collected to track and monitor the use of our Service.
B. Google AdSense & Google AdMob (Advertising) We use Google to serve ads on our Website and App. Google uses cookies (like the DoubleClick cookie) and Device Advertising IDs to serve ads based on your prior visits to our site or other sites on the internet.
- Users may opt-out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
- Our app complies with the Google Play Families Policy and does not show inappropriate ads.
5. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Our Website uses "Cookies" (small data files stored on your device) to enhance your experience. We use:
- Essential Cookies: Required for the site to function properly.
- Analytical/Performance Cookies: To understand how visitors interact with our site.
- Advertising Cookies: To deliver relevant ads. You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies, but some parts of our Service may not function properly.
6. Data Storage and Deletion Policy
We do not store your downloaded media. InstaSnap acts only as a bridge between the Instagram servers and your device. When you paste a link to download a Reel, Story, or Photo, the file is fetched and downloaded directly to your device. We do not keep logs of what you download, nor do we save the media files on our own servers.
Since we do not require account creation, there is no personal user account data to delete.
7. Security of Your Data
We use administrative, technical, and physical security measures to help protect your personal information. Our website uses SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption (HTTPS) to ensure that your connection is secure. However, please be aware that no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
8. Children’s Privacy (COPPA Compliance)
Our Services are not directed to children under the age of 13 (or 16 in some jurisdictions). We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your child has provided us with personal data, please contact us so we can take necessary actions.
9. Links to Other Websites
Our Service may contain links to other websites that are not operated by us. If you click on a third-party link (such as an advertisement), you will be directed to that third party's site. We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy of every site you visit.
10. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in legal or operational requirements, including Google Play Store or Google Ads policy updates. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Effective Date" at the top. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
