Snapchat is currently in the process of cleaning up its reputation after it experienced the minor setback of having the usernames and passwords of 4 million users leaked. Now, apparently, they’re trying to be a little more transparent.

The company admitted that they’ve, at times, given law enforcement unopened snaps. Snapchat says that once a snap is opened, it is automatically deleted from their servers.

In that time, if authorities have a search warrant, the company has to hand over the unopened snaps left on their servers, thanks to the Electronic Communications Privacy Act. Snapchat says that they’ve received about a dozen search warrants since May 2013 (but didn’t say how many they’ve received since launching in 2011).
