Privacy & Data Transparency

Privacy Policy & Data Standards

We believe enterprise intelligence should be transparent, secure, and respectful of user sovereignty.

Last Updated: August 2026

1. Overview & Commitment

At Snowline, we are deeply committed to protecting your privacy, data sovereignty, and security. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, store, and process information across our web platform, APIs, and progressive web applications (PWAs).

We operate on a privacy-first architecture: we do not sell personal data, we do not employ invasive cross-site ad trackers, and we prioritize decentralized client-side storage for user preferences.

2. Client-Side Storage & Local Preferences

Snowline uses modern browser localStorage and session caches to store your personalized intelligence workspace. This includes:

  • Saved Watchlist: Companies and market updates you bookmark.
  • Custom Added Businesses: Community companies you add to your private radar.
  • Subscription State: Your selected plan tier (Free, Starter, Pro) and mock invoice logs.
  • Interface Preferences: Light/Dark appearance theme, installation banner dismissals, and notification prompt settings.

All custom tracking data remains inside your browser environment unless you explicitly export or sync it.

3. Guest Mode vs. Registered Accounts

Snowline provides two distinct browsing paradigms:

Guest Mode (Read-Only)

Completely anonymous session. No database storage is provisioned, and bookmarking/adding businesses is disabled.

User Account

Enables persistent watchlist saves (up to 10 companies on Free, or 50 on Starter/Pro) and custom company creation.

4. Push Notifications & Device Permissions

Snowline offers real-time milestone alerts via standard W3C Web Push and Service Worker Notification APIs.

Notifications are strictly opt-in. We only request permission when initiated by you, and you can revoke or reset notification permissions at any time through your browser site settings or in Snowline Settings.

5. Security & Data Protection Standards

We implement strict security practices across our edge infrastructure:

  • End-to-end TLS 1.3 encryption on all web domains and API endpoints.
  • Strict Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, and X-Content-Type headers.
  • RFC 9457 structured error handling preventing database or stack trace exposure.

6. Your Rights & One-Click Data Reset

You have absolute control over your information. At any point, you can navigate to Settings $\rightarrow$ Local Data & Storage and click Reset to Free Plan.

This action instantly purges all saved watchlists, custom added companies, notification prompt cache, and reverts your active subscription to the default Free tier.
