AI News is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what data we collect, why we collect it, and how we use it when you use our platform to distribute AI news content to your social media accounts.
1. Who We Are
AI News Digest ("we," "our," or "us") is an automated content distribution platform that enables creators and media publishers to generate and publish AI-curated news videos to their social media accounts. Our platform is operated at ig.nktoolbox.com.

2. Information We Collect
We collect the following categories of information:
- Account information: Your name and email address when you register for an account.
- Social media tokens: OAuth access tokens provided by TikTok and other platforms when you authorize our app. These tokens allow us to publish content on your behalf. We do not store your social media passwords.
- Publication data: Records of content published to your accounts, including timestamps, captions, and platform post IDs.
- Usage data: Pages visited, features used, and interactions with our platform dashboard.
- Device information: Browser type, operating system, and IP address for security and analytics purposes.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Operate and provide the AI News Digest content distribution service
- Publish content to your connected social media accounts upon your explicit approval
- Send you service notifications, including publication confirmations and error alerts
- Improve and optimize our platform features
- Comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Service
- Protect against fraud and unauthorized access
4. TikTok Integration & Data
When you connect your TikTok account, we receive an OAuth access token from TikTok that allows us to publish videos on your behalf. Specifically:
- We request only the video.publish scope โ the minimum permission needed to post content
- We never access your TikTok messages, follower data, or any information beyond what is required to publish content
- You can revoke our access at any time from TikTok's Connected Apps settings
- We do not sell or share your TikTok data with third parties
- Content is only posted after you review a preview and give explicit approval
Our use of TikTok data is governed by TikTok's Privacy Policy and our agreement with TikTok for Developers.
5. Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal data. We share data only in the following limited circumstances:
- Service providers: Third-party services that help us operate the platform (hosting, analytics, email delivery) under strict data processing agreements
- Legal requirements: When required by law, court order, or government authority
- Business transfers: In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, with notice provided to affected users
6. Data Retention
We retain your data for as long as your account is active. When you delete your account:
- Your OAuth tokens are immediately revoked and deleted
- Your account data is deleted within 30 days
- Publication history logs are anonymized and retained for 90 days for operational purposes
7. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:
- Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
- Correction: Request correction of inaccurate data
- Deletion: Request deletion of your personal data ("right to be forgotten")
- Portability: Request your data in a portable format
- Objection: Object to processing of your data for marketing purposes
- Withdrawal of consent: Disconnect your social accounts at any time
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at [email protected].
8. Security
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data, including encryption in transit (TLS), encrypted storage of OAuth tokens, and access controls limiting who can view user data. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.
9. Cookies
We use essential cookies to maintain your login session and platform preferences. We do not use advertising cookies or third-party tracking cookies. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though this may affect platform functionality.
10. Children's Privacy
AI News Digest is not intended for users under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you believe we have inadvertently collected such data, please contact us immediately.
