This Privacy Policy explains how ApprovedBy, LLC(“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, shares, and protects information in connection with our websites, applications, and services (the “Services”), which help you create and publish content to social media platforms through their APIs. By using the Services, you agree to this Policy.
ApprovedBy, LLC is the controller responsible for the information described in this Policy. You can reach us at service@chenoa.co or at the address in Section 15.
When you connect a social platform account, you authorize us to access certain data through that platform’s API to provide the Services. Depending on the platform and the permissions you grant, this may include:
| Category | Examples | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Account identifiers | Account, channel, or board IDs; handle/username; profile basics | To identify the destination and publish on your behalf |
| Authorization credentials | OAuth access and refresh tokens issued by the platform | To act on your behalf via the API (stored encrypted; see Section 12) |
| Publishing data | Content you schedule, posts/pins/videos created, and status/results | To create, publish, and report on your content |
| Basic metrics | Where you enable it, limited engagement or delivery metadata | To show publishing status and results |
We access only the data needed to provide the features you use, consistent with the permissions (scopes) you approve during authorization. We do not request or store your platform login passwords.
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use connected-platform data to serve you third-party advertising.
Our Services use YouTube API Services. By using the related features you are also agreeing to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service, and you should review the Google Privacy Policy, which describes how Google handles information.
When you connect a Meta or Instagram account, we access account identifiers and the authorization tokens needed to publish and manage the content you direct us to, in accordance with your granted permissions and Meta’s Platform Terms and Developer Policies. We process this data only as described in this Policy and with your consent, we do not share it with third parties except as described in Section 8, and we do not use it to build or augment user profiles for advertising. You can disconnect the integration at any time through the Services or via your Meta/Instagram settings (Settings & Privacy → Apps and Websites), and you may request deletion of the data we hold as described under Requesting Data Deletion.
When you connect an X, TikTok, or Pinterest account, we access the account identifiers and authorization tokens needed to publish and manage content on your behalf, consistent with the permissions you grant and each platform’s terms and developer policies (X, TikTok, Pinterest). We use this data only to provide the Services, do not sell it, and delete it when you disconnect, on request, or when it is no longer needed. You can also revoke access from within each platform’s connected-apps settings.
We do not sell personal information, and we do not share connected-platform data with third parties for their own marketing.
We retain information only for as long as necessary to provide the Services and for legitimate, described purposes. We do not retain connected-platform data indefinitely. We delete or de-identify data when you disconnect an account, when you request deletion, when it is no longer needed for a legitimate business purpose, when we stop offering the Services, or when a platform requires us to.
You can request deletion of the personal data we hold about you, including data obtained from connected platforms, at any time:
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or port your personal data, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to withdraw consent. Residents of certain U.S. states and of the EEA/UK may have additional rights under laws such as the CCPA/CPRA and the GDPR. To exercise any right, contact us at service@chenoa.co. We will not discriminate against you for exercising these rights, and you may have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.
We maintain administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information appropriate to its sensitivity. Platform authorization tokens are stored in encrypted form, and access is restricted to what is needed to operate the Services. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
The Services are not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18 (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction). If you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us and we will take appropriate steps to delete it. Where any feature could be child-directed, we comply with applicable requirements, including COPPA and the GDPR.
We may update this Policy from time to time. We will post the updated Policy with a new effective date and, for material changes, provide additional notice by reasonable means. Your continued use of the Services after the changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Policy.
