Snapchat Reassures Users That it is Not Storing Their Images

Changes to Snapchat’s privacy policy have concerned users that the company may be storing their private images. However, Snapchat reassures users that this is not the case.
According to an article on CBC News:

The makers of Snapchat have issued a clarification about their privacy policy after rumours began to circulate that they were “stockpiling” private photos.
Snapchat is a popular mobile messaging app that lets people send photos, videos and messages that disappear in a few seconds. A recent update to the app also brought an update to its privacy policy and terms of service.
Some of the changes to these documents raised concerns among users, particularly sections on the company’s use of the images users share and use of a user’s name, likeness and voice “anywhere in the world, with no restriction, on all media and distribution channels, forever.”
“First off, we want to be crystal clear: The snaps and chats you send your friends remain as private today as they were before the update,” read a blog post from Snapchat.
The company said the updates to the terms of service were for clarity and for allowing the selling of replays of some media shared between users.
