5. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures:

  • Encryption: All data transmitted using HTTPS/TLS 1.3

  • Access Controls: Role-based permissions, limited employee access
  • Regular Audits: Quarterly security reviews and vulnerability scans
  • Infrastructure: Hosted on SOC 2 compliant platforms (Vercel, Supabase)

However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

  • Active Accounts: Data retained while your account is active
  • After Disconnection: Instagram access tokens immediately revoked
  • Account Deletion: All personal data deleted within 30 days of account deletion request
