Privacy Policy
- 01
Who we are
FoxTrail: Snap Explore Write (version 1.6) is published by denix.studio, founded by Gökhan Alp Atar, Nilüfer / Bursa, Turkey. This policy describes this app specifically — our other apps handle data differently and each has its own policy.
- 02
How FoxTrail: Snap Explore Write handles data
FoxTrail is a location-based social app: to place a note on the map and to show you notes nearby, it necessarily processes your location and uploads the content you post to our service. Posts are shown to other users without your name attached, but they are not anonymous to the system.
- 03
What is collected
FoxTrail: Snap Explore Write may hold your approximate and precise location when you open the map or drop a note; the messages you write and the photos you capture in-app, together with the coordinates and time they were posted; a random device-scoped identifier used to enforce rate limits, blocks and abuse reports — not linked to your real name; reports you file about other people's content, and the content you report; and anonymous crash and performance data.
- 04
Why
Data is used only to make FoxTrail: Snap Explore Write work as described on its App Store page, to fix crashes and to keep the app secure. It is never sold, rented, or used to build an advertising profile.
- 05
Permissions this app asks for
Location (when in use) — to show the map around you and to pin a note where you actually are. Camera — notes may include a real-time photo taken in the app; the library picker is deliberately not used. Notifications — to tell you when something appears near you or your note is answered. Each permission is requested at the moment it is needed and can be withdrawn in iOS Settings at any time.
- 06
Third parties
FoxTrail: Snap Explore Write relies on hosting and database infrastructure used to store and serve public notes; and crash reporting. Each processes data under its own policy and only for the purpose above.
- 07
Retention and deletion
A note you delete is removed from the map. Copies may persist briefly in backups, and content flagged in an abuse report may be retained longer where we need it to act on the report or to comply with a legal request.
- 08
Security
Data held on the device is protected by iOS app sandboxing and file-level encryption. Where information does travel, it travels over TLS. No system is perfect, but we keep the amount of data involved as small as the app allows.
- 09
Children
Rated 17+. FoxTrail carries unmoderated user-generated content and is not intended for anyone under 17. We do not knowingly allow accounts or posts from children.
- 10
Your rights (GDPR and KVKK)
You may ask for access to any personal data we hold about you, ask for it to be corrected or deleted, object to processing, ask for portability, and withdraw consent. Where the app holds everything on your device, you exercise those rights directly: edit or delete the content in the app, or delete the app. Write to us and we answer within 30 days.
- 11
Payments
FoxTrail is free to download. Any optional purchase is handled by Apple; we never see your card details.
- 12
Anonymity has limits
Your display identity is anonymous to other users. It is not anonymous to us or to law enforcement acting under a valid order: posts carry coordinates, timestamps and a device-scoped identifier. Do not post anything you would not want tied back to where you were standing.
- 13
Location precision
Reading a note requires being physically near it, so proximity is computed from your live location. You can revoke location access in iOS Settings at any time; the map will then stop working.
- 14
