You're handing us the details of your life. Here's the deal.
Not small print. What you're actually committing to, what we'll never do, and honest answers to the things people really ask — including the awkward ones.
The short version
Four promises, in plain English.
If you read nothing else on this page, read these. Everything below is just us showing our working.
It's your space, not a feed
Nothing you put in is published, suggested to anyone, or shown to another human because an algorithm thought it might do numbers. There is no feed. There is nobody to perform for.
We don't sell it. Ever.
Your life is not inventory. We do not sell your data, we do not hand it to advertisers, and there are no advertising signals anywhere on this site or in the app.
You choose who sees what
Sharing is off until you turn it on, and it's per person and per thing. Living with someone doesn't mean they see everything — that's a decision, and it stays yours.
You can take it and leave
Export it, delete it, walk away. A life's worth of small facts is exactly the sort of thing you should never be locked out of, or into.
The exchange
What you give, and what you get for it.
Every app that helps you wants something. Most of them are vague about it. Here it is as a trade, because that's what it is.
🫴 You give
- The people in your life, and how you know them.
- The things you own, and what they cost.
- Money owed between you and people you trust.
- What's happening, and when.
That's a lot. It's more than most apps ask for, and it's the only way any of the useful parts work.
🎁 You get
- The small stuff stops needing you to remember it.
- Things you were doing anyway start paying you back.
- Nobody has to be the one who nags.
- Fewer quiet leaks of money and time.
And it stays free, forever, for the standard version — so you're not paying for it later with something you didn't read.
What we never do: sell it · show it to anyone you didn't choose · post on your behalf · advertise at you · lock you in · change your records without asking
Straight answers
The questions you're actually asking.
Including the ones a privacy page usually answers by not mentioning them.
- So you can see all my stuff?
- In principle, the way your bank can see your transactions: it's on our servers, and a small number of people could technically reach it. We don't read it, we don't mine it, and it isn't sold or shared. We're not going to tell you it's mathematically impossible for us to look — that would be a nicer sentence than it is a true one.
- Can my partner see everything if we share a space?
- Only what you put in that shared space. A shared space is a room you both walk into — not a window into your whole account. You can keep a private space alongside it, and most people do.
- Does the AI read my documents?
- It reads what you hand it — a receipt you're adding, a document you're filing — to save you typing. It works on your own data, it suggests rather than acts, and it never changes a record without you saying yes. It isn't used to train a model that other people benefit from.
- What happens if I stop using it?
- Your data stays yours and you can export or delete it whenever. We are not going to hold your own address book hostage to get you back.
- What if you go under?
- Fair question, and we're too small to pretend it's unthinkable. That's a large part of why export exists and why we're saying so on this page rather than in a clause. The thing that would make this app worth using is the thing that would make losing it awful — we know that, and we'd rather you knew we knew.
- Are you tracking me on this website?
- We count page views to learn which pages are useful. In the EU, EEA and UK nothing is measured until you accept the banner — analytics is switched off by default there. Google Signals and ad personalisation are off everywhere, so it can't be used to advertise at you.
Your account, and the rest of the ecosystem
Your account comes from Sneat Co. — the same identity used across the Sneat ecosystem, so there's no separate password here to lose. Sneat.app also connects to sibling products across the wider Sneat platform. Data moves between them only inside your own spaces, and only when you ask.
Asking us things
Sneat.app is operated by Sneat Co. For privacy questions, or to have your data removed, get in touch via sneat.co.
This is the plain-English version, and it's written to be read rather than to be defensible. It describes how Sneat.app actually works today — where something is a promise rather than a finished mechanism, we've said so on this page rather than let you assume. If you need the formal detail, ask us and we'll give you a straight answer.
