Overview
SmartyApps is a solo-operated software business building small, focused tools: SnapIt, AnswerBot, ClientDesk, LeadHunterAI, and LeadScanner. This policy explains what information each product collects, how it's used, and who it's shared with. Because these products work quite differently from each other — some are desktop apps that never touch a server, others are hosted services — the specifics are broken out product by product below.
SnapIt (desktop)
Screenshots, annotations, and capture history stay on your machine — nothing is uploaded anywhere as part of normal use. To activate a paid license, SnapIt sends a one-way hash derived from your Windows installation (not any personal file or content) along with your license code to our license server, purely to verify the code and bind it to your device. Trial usage (capture count) is tracked locally in the Windows Registry, not on our servers.
AnswerBot (hosted service)
When you sign up for AnswerBot, we store your business name, website, email address, and a securely hashed password. Setting up your chatbot involves us crawling and storing the public content of your own website so your chatbot can answer questions about it. Conversations between your chatbot and your site's visitors are logged so you can review them in your dashboard; if a visitor voluntarily provides contact information during a conversation, that's stored too, for your follow-up.
To generate chat responses, AnswerBot sends relevant page content and the visitor's question to a third-party AI provider (Google Gemini or Groq, depending on configuration) or, if you've added your own API key, to the provider tied to that key. Those providers process the request under their own privacy terms; we don't control how they handle it beyond the request itself. If you add your own AI provider key, it's encrypted before storage and never displayed back to you in full.
ClientDesk (desktop)
Your contacts, message history, and pipeline notes are stored locally in a database on your own machine — we don't have a copy and can't access it. Connecting your Telegram, WhatsApp, Instagram, or Email accounts routes messages through those platforms' own APIs directly from your device. Voice messages you choose to have transcribed are sent to Groq's Whisper API for transcription, and generated voice replies are produced via Microsoft Edge's text-to-speech service — both only when you use those specific features.
LeadHunterAI (desktop)
LeadHunterAI runs searches using your own SerpApi key, which you provide and which is used only to make requests on your behalf. Search results are exported directly to a CSV file of your choosing; we don't receive or retain a copy of your searches or results.
Payments
All payments are handled by Gumroad or AppSumo, depending on where you purchase. We never see or store your full card details — those platforms handle payment processing under their own security and privacy standards. We do receive confirmation of a purchase (e.g., to activate a license) and whatever contact information you choose to provide during checkout.
Cookies & site analytics
This website (smartyapps.xyz) does not set tracking or advertising cookies. Standard web server logs (IP address, page requested, timestamp) may be retained briefly for security and troubleshooting purposes.
Data retention
For hosted services (currently AnswerBot), account and conversation data is retained for as long as your account is active. You can request deletion of your account and associated data at any time by emailing us. For desktop products, data lives on your machine and is retained for as long as you choose to keep it there — we have no way to delete or access it remotely.
Your rights
Depending on where you're located, you may have rights to access, correct, export, or delete personal information we hold about you. To exercise any of these, email support@smartyapps.xyz and we'll respond as promptly as we can.
Children's privacy
SmartyApps products are not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as products change. Material changes will be reflected here with an updated date at the top of this page.
