# Privacy Policy

LaTeXSnipper does not collect, store, sell, or transmit personal data.

The application may connect to GitHub to check for updates and download release files. It may also connect to model or dependency download sources when the user installs or updates MathCraft OCR dependencies.

Files, screenshots, images, PDFs, handwritten input, and OCR results processed locally by LaTeXSnipper are not uploaded by the application unless the user explicitly configures and uses an external model, API provider, or remote translation engine.

When an external model or API provider is configured by the user, any data sent to that provider is governed by the provider's own privacy policy and the user's configuration.

Bilingual Reading extracts text from local PDFs. Source text stays local when using source-only display or a local translation engine. If the user selects a remote translation engine such as Azure Translator, Google Cloud Translation, or DeepL, the text submitted for translation is sent to that configured provider.
