Privacy Policy
Your privacy matters to us. Learn how we collect, use, and protect your data.
Last updated: January 15, 2025
Secure by Design
Your data is encrypted in transit and at rest using industry-standard protocols.
Transparent Practices
We clearly explain what data we collect and why we need it.
You're in Control
Access, export, or delete your data at any time from your account settings.
1. Information We Collect
Account Information
When you create an account, we collect your name, email address, and password. If you sign up using a social login provider, we receive basic profile information from that service.
Social Media Account Access
To manage your social media presence, we request authorization to access your connected social media accounts (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter/X, LinkedIn). This includes:
- Permission to read and publish posts on your behalf
- Access to your account analytics and engagement metrics
- Ability to view and respond to comments and messages
- Profile information from connected accounts
We only access the permissions you explicitly grant, and you can revoke access at any time.
Content You Create
We store the content you create within BrandBoost, including drafted posts, scheduled content, media uploads, campaign data, and AI-generated content suggestions.
Usage Data
We automatically collect information about how you use our service, including features accessed, actions taken, and performance metrics. This helps us improve the platform.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use your information to:
- Provide our services: Publish and schedule your social media posts, manage your content calendar, and deliver analytics
- Power AI features: Generate content suggestions, optimize posting times, and provide coaching recommendations based on your performance data
- Improve our platform: Analyze usage patterns to enhance features and fix issues
- Communicate with you: Send service updates, security alerts, and (with your consent) marketing communications
- Ensure security: Detect and prevent fraud, abuse, and unauthorized access
- Provide customer support: Respond to your questions and help resolve issues
AI Training: We do not use your personal content or social media data to train AI models. Your content remains yours.
3. Information Sharing
We do not sell your personal information. We share data only in these circumstances:
Service Providers
We work with trusted third-party providers who help us operate our service:

Social Media Platforms
When you publish content through BrandBoost, that content is shared with the social media platforms you've connected (subject to their privacy policies).
Legal Requirements
We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or government request, or to protect our rights and the safety of users.
4. Data Security
We implement robust security measures to protect your data:
- Encryption: All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256)
- Access controls: Strict role-based access with multi-factor authentication for our team
- Token security: Social media access tokens are encrypted and stored securely, never in plain text
- Regular audits: We conduct security assessments and monitor for vulnerabilities
- Two-factor authentication: Available for your BrandBoost account
While we strive to protect your data, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure. We encourage you to use strong, unique passwords and enable two-factor authentication.
