Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 11, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how PostAut ("PostAut", "we") collects, uses, stores, shares and deletes personal data when you use the PostAut website and dashboard, a tool to schedule and publish your own content to Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn, Pinterest and Telegram through those platforms' official APIs.
This policy follows Brazil's General Data Protection Law (Law No. 13,709/2018 — LGPD) and the requirements of the integrated platforms, including the TikTok Developer Terms, the Meta Platform Terms, the LinkedIn API Terms, the Pinterest Developer Guidelines and the Telegram Bot API Terms. If you live outside Brazil, you may also have rights under your country's data protection laws; write to us to exercise them.
PostAut uses the YouTube API Services. By connecting a YouTube channel, you also agree to the YouTube Terms of Service, and data handled by Google follows the Google Privacy Policy.
1. Who is responsible (controller)
The data controller is Kelvin Vitor Francisco, Catanduva - SP. For any privacy matter or to exercise your rights, write to telecanais10@gmail.com.
2. Data we collect
a) Your PostAut account data
- Name, email and password (the password is stored only as a cryptographic hash, never as plain text).
- Account creation date and last access.
- When you subscribe to a paid plan: name, email and tax ID (CPF or CNPJ in Brazil), sent to our payment processor to issue the charge. We do not receive or store card details.
b) TikTok data (when you connect a TikTok account)
Access happens through TikTok's official Login Kit, and only after you explicitly authorize it on TikTok's own screen. We only ask for the scopes below:
user.info.basicanduser.info.profile: the account's identifier in the app (open_id), display name, username and profile photo, used to show which account is connected.video.uploadandvideo.publish: send TikTok the videos you chose to publish and check the publishing status. We also check your account's creator info (such as the available privacy options), which TikTok requires before each post.- Access token and refresh token issued by TikTok, with their expiry date.
We do not collect your TikTok password, follower list, private messages, payment data or videos you did not upload through PostAut.
c) YouTube data (when you connect a channel)
Access happens through Google's official login (OAuth), only after you authorize it on Google's own screen. We only ask for these scopes:
youtube.upload: upload to your channel the videos you chose to publish, with the title, description and privacy status (public, unlisted or private) you chose.youtube.readonly: read the channel's ID, name and handle, to show which channel is connected.- Access token and refresh token issued by Google, with their expiry date.
We do not collect your Google password, subscribers, comments, messages, monetization data or videos you did not upload through PostAut. Our use of data received from Google APIs follows the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
d) Instagram and Facebook data (when you connect these accounts)
- ID, name and username of the Instagram professional account and of the Facebook Pages you manage.
- Access tokens issued by Meta.
- Metrics of posts published by PostAut (reach, views, likes, comments), when the API provides them.
- Comments and messages received on your posts, only if you turn on automatic replies (DMs).
- The list of your already published posts (thumbnail, caption, link and date), only when you open the "DMs on old posts" screen to choose which one to turn automatic replies on for.
e) LinkedIn data (when you connect your profile)
- Through LinkedIn's official login, with the scopes
openid,profileandw_member_social: profile identifier and name, to show which account is connected, and permission to publish to your profile the posts you schedule. - Access token issued by LinkedIn, with its expiry date (about 60 days).
f) Pinterest data (when you connect your account)
- Through Pinterest's official login, with the scopes
user_accounts:read,boards:read,boards:write,pins:readandpins:write: the account's username, the list of your boards so you can choose where pins go, creating a board when you ask, and creating the pins you schedule. - Access token and refresh token issued by Pinterest, with their expiry date.
g) Telegram data (when you connect a channel or group)
- The token of your own bot, which you create in @BotFather and paste into PostAut, stored encrypted on the server.
- ID, name and handle of the channel or group where the bot posts, and the bot's handle.
- We do not read the channel's messages: the bot only looks for the connection code you send once, and after that it only posts.
h) Content you upload
- Videos, images, captions, hashtags, scheduling dates and times, and drafts.
- Logs of each post: success, error and the identifier returned by the platform.
i) Refer and earn (affiliate program)
- If you take part: the account holder's name, CPF/CNPJ and Pix key to receive commissions (stored encrypted), your link code, how many clicks it got, and your commission and withdrawal history.
- If you created your account through someone's link: the record of who referred you and the commission amounts generated by your payments. The referrer only sees your first name with your last-name initial, the plan and those amounts.
- When you subscribe, we store a code derived from your CPF/CNPJ (not the number itself), only to prevent people from referring themselves.
j) Technical data
- A strictly necessary session cookie (
postaut_session) to keep you signed in, a language cookie (postaut_lang) when you choose a language, and temporary security cookies (tt_oauth_state,yt_oauth_state,li_oauth_stateandpin_oauth_state, 10 minutes) while connecting TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn and Pinterest. - When you open a referral link, a first-party PostAut cookie (
pa_ref) stores the referrer's code for up to 90 days, to record the referral if you create an account. It is deleted when the account is created. - In the Android app, a device identifier to send the notifications you turned on (post published, failure, post taking off).
- Server logs (IP address, date and time, route accessed), for security and troubleshooting.
We do not use advertising cookies, tracking pixels or third-party analytics tools.
