Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Snaptic AI – Antique Identifier ("Snaptic AI," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, processes, and protects information when you use our mobile application and related services (the "Service").

By using Snaptic AI, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

1. INFORMATION WE COLLECT

Photos and Images

Snaptic AI allows you to take photographs or select images from your device in order to identify, research, analyze, and estimate information about antiques, vintage objects, collectibles, and other items.

Images you submit may be processed by our systems and third-party service providers used to provide features such as:

  • Object identification

  • Visual analysis

  • Antique research

  • Similar-item discovery

  • Marketplace searches

  • Price and value analysis

  • AI-generated answers and insights

We access your camera or photo library only when you choose to use features requiring such access and subject to your device permissions.


Photographs and AI processing

When you ask the app to identify an item, the photographs you take of that item are

sent from your device to the following third-party services:


- kie.ai (which operates xAI's Grok vision model) — reads the photographs to identify

  the object, its maker, period and materials.

- Groq, Inc. — used for the same identification in some cases.

- SerpApi, LLC — the photograph is uploaded and used to run a Google Lens image

  search for visually similar items that have sold.


Only the photographs of the item are sent. Your collection, notes, purchase prices and

valuations are stored on your device and are not sent to these services. We do not send

your name, email address, contacts or location with the photographs.


The app asks for your permission before any photograph is sent, and you can withdraw

that permission at any time in Settings. If you withdraw it, no photograph is sent.


Each of these providers is bound by its own privacy terms, which we have reviewed and

which provide protection equal to that described in this policy. They process the

photographs to return a result to the app.


We also use: RevenueCat (subscription status), Google AdMob (advertising for users

without a subscription, subject to your tracking choice), Firebase Remote Config

(app settings), and eBay and SoldComps (market data — no photographs are sent to them).


Identification and Analysis Data

When you perform a scan or use our AI features, we may process information derived from your submitted image, including possible:

  • Object names and categories

  • Makers or manufacturers

  • Visible marks and inscriptions

  • Materials

  • Styles

  • Estimated periods or dates

  • Search queries
