Snapchat comes with several features, however, the social media company works with other companies and creators to add other fun new features to Snapchat! It should be noted that when you use these features, you’ll sometimes share certain data with the companies that helped provide them.
Snapchat’s Privacy Policy clearly states that their services may contain third-party content and integrations. This includes third-party integrations in-camera search, third-party games in Chat, and third-party Snap Kit integrations.
It is through these integrations, that users may be providing information to the third party as well as to Snap. The problems is how these 3rd-party companies use this information since Snap says that they are not responsible for how those third parties collect or use your information.
This why we always, encourage our readers to review the privacy policies of every third-party service that you visit or use, including those third parties you interact with through Snapchat’s services.
Here is a list of all SnapChat’s integrated features. It should be noted some of these services may not be operational on your device depending on your mobile operating system or Geo-location.
