Privacy Policy

Last updated：2026-11-12

SnapshotToken (a Mac menu bar app, “the App”) is developed by CompoundWater. This policy explains what data the App handles, where it is stored and how you can delete it.

In short: the App needs no account, collects no personal data, does not track you and shows no ads. It only reads the usage numbers that AI tools leave on your Mac and keeps them on your own Mac. We can’t see them. Conversation content is never stored.

1. Data the App handles

Data	Where it’s stored	Why
Usage information from the log files that Claude Code, Cowork and Codex leave on this Mac: time, model name, token counts by type, the working folder path and the conversation’s identifier	On your Mac only (the App’s own database)	To total usage, convert it to an API-equivalent cost and group it by model and project
When a usage limit was reached and when it resets (only if the logs record it)	On your Mac only	To show “limit reached” and the reset time
App settings, your custom prices, monthly budget	On your Mac only	Preferences and cost calculation

The App reads those tools’ log files to get these numbers, but it does not store or send the content of your conversations (what you asked or what the AI answered). This data is never uploaded to any server and is not shared with us or third parties.

2. Network connections

The App only makes the following connection, which never includes your usage or any personal data:

Price table: once a day it downloads a public model price table from GitHub (maintained by the LiteLLM project) to calculate costs. It is download-only and can be turned off in Settings.
External links you choose to open (such as our website or other apps’ pages) open in your browser and are covered by those sites’ own policies.

Any network connection lets the receiving server see your IP address; that is how the internet works. We do not receive this information or use it to identify you.

3. Files it reads and writes

Reads: ~/.claude/projects, ~/.codex/sessions, the Claude desktop app’s Cowork logs, and any folder you choose under “Import from backup”.
Writes: the App’s own database and settings. Only when you click “Keep for 365 days” and confirm does it change one field in ~/.claude/settings.json, after backing up the original file.
Share cards and CSV: created only when you click share, copy or save, and saved where you choose.

4. Tracking and ads

The App has no ads, no analytics or statistics SDKs, uses no cookies and does no cross-app or cross-site tracking.

5. Deleting your data

All records: Settings › Records › Delete all records.
Removing the App: move the App to the Trash and delete the ~/Library/Application Support/SnapshotToken folder.

Because the data exists only on your Mac, we hold nothing of yours to delete or provide.

6. Children’s privacy

The App collects no personal data from anyone, including children under 13.

7. Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. If any data collection is ever added, we will say so clearly in the App’s release notes and on this page.
