Usage data.
Yes. Snaptik - Save videos' developer declares usage data as data used to track you — data that can be combined with other companies' data for targeted ads or ad measurement, or shared with data brokers. On iPhone you can refuse: tap Ask App Not to Track, or switch off tracking requests for every app in Settings.
What “tracking” means on an iPhone
Apple defines tracking as linking data from this app with data from other companies' apps, websites or offline sources for targeted advertising or ad measurement, or sharing it with a data broker. It is narrower than “collecting data”: an app can collect a lot without tracking you, and a small app can track you with a single advertising SDK.
Since iOS 14.5, App Tracking Transparency requires every app to ask before it accesses your device's advertising identifier or otherwise tracks you. The App Store label is where the developer declares which of its data is used that way. Snaptik - Save videos declares 1 data type, so expect the “Allow Snaptik - Save videos to track your activity across other companies' apps and websites?” prompt.
The data Snaptik - Save videos uses to track you
Usage Data
What you tap, open and view inside the app, plus which ads you have seen. Product analytics show developers which features are used. The same records can also feed advertising when an app declares tracking.
