Privacy Policy
This policy explains what Sni K's ("we", "us") collects when you use the Sni K's app and website, why we collect it, and the choices you have. If you have a question, email support@sniks.app.
What we collect
Account details. Your username, email address and, if you set one, a password (stored only as a secure hash). If you play as a guest, we create an account with a random placeholder instead.
Sign-in with Google, Apple or Facebook. When you choose one of these, we receive the identifier and email that the provider shares with us, and your name if you allow it. With Sign in with Apple you can hide your real email; we then receive a private relay address. We never receive your passwords for these services.
Facebook friends. If you connect Facebook to find friends, we store your Facebook app-specific ID and see which of your Facebook friends also use Sni K's. We do not receive your full friends list.
Gameplay. Your XP, rank, coins, lives, streaks, answers, scores, game history, quest progress, challenges, matches, friends and giveaway entries.
Shopping and cashback. If you tap a sneaker deal, we record the link you opened and the retailer, and attach a reference so the affiliate network can tell us about a purchase. If a purchase is confirmed, we record the cashback ("Snik Credit") it earned you. We do not see or store your payment card details.
Device and technical information. A notification token for your device (so we can send push notifications you have allowed), your device platform, your approximate country (worked out from your network so we can show deals available where you are), and crash reports that help us fix problems.
Advertising. The app shows ads through Google AdMob. AdMob may use your device's advertising identifier. On iPhone we only do this if you allow tracking when asked; you can change this at any time in Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking. On Android you can reset or delete your advertising ID in your device settings.
How we use it
- To create and run your account, save your progress and keep you signed in.
- To run the game: scores, ranks, leaderboards, rewards, challenges and giveaways.
- To show you friends who play, and let you challenge them.
- To show sneaker deals relevant to your country and pay out cashback.
- To send notifications you have switched on.
- To keep the game fair, prevent abuse and cheating, and fix bugs.
- To show ads, which keep the core game free.
Who we share it with
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with services that help us run Sni K's, and only as needed:
- Hosting and infrastructure providers that run our servers and protect them (including Cloudflare).
- Google Firebase for push notifications and crash reports.
- Google AdMob for ads.
- Apple, Google and Meta (Facebook) when you choose to sign in or connect with them.
- Affiliate networks and retailers (for example Awin) to track deal clicks and confirm cashback.
- Other players see your username, rank, XP and match results on leaderboards and in games.
We may also disclose information if the law requires it, or to protect the safety of our players or our service.
How long we keep it
We keep your information while your account exists. When you delete your account we delete your account and game data. Some records, such as confirmed purchase or cashback records, may be kept for longer where the law requires it.
Your choices and rights
- Delete your account: in the app go to Profile → Settings → Delete account. It is immediate and permanent. You can also email support@sniks.app, or follow the steps on our data deletion page.
- Access or correct your data: email support@sniks.app and we will help.
- Notifications: switch them off in the app's Settings or in your phone's settings.
- Facebook: remove Sni K's under Facebook → Settings & privacy → Settings → Apps and websites.
- Ads tracking: see the Advertising section above.
Depending on where you live, you may have extra rights under local law, such as the right to object to some processing or to complain to a data protection authority.
Children
Sni K's is not intended for children under 13, or under the age required in your country to consent to data processing. If you believe a child has given us their information, email support@sniks.app and we will delete it.
Security
We protect your information with encryption in transit, hashed passwords and access controls. No service is completely secure, so please use a strong, unique password.
Changes to this policy
If we make important changes we will update this page and, where appropriate, tell you in the app. The date at the bottom shows when it last changed.
