Platforms & data use

What we ask for, and what we do with it

An account owner connects each channel once, through that platform's own authorisation screen. BuildXFlow never asks for or stores a social media password. Access can be revoked at any time from the Accounts page or from the platform itself.


TikTok

BuildXFlow publishes video to the connected account's own TikTok profile, and reads that account's public profile details and the view, like, comment and share counts of its own posts for the weekly report.

Before anything is posted, BuildXFlow shows the creator's nickname, avatar and available privacy options in the composer, and the person publishing selects the privacy level and confirms the post themselves.

BuildXFlow does not read other users' content, does not post without an explicit action by a signed-in team member, and does not use TikTok data for advertising or resale.

Permissions requested

Facebook and Instagram

Publish to the connected Page and Instagram Business account, and read their own post and audience insights for reporting. BuildXFlow does not read other users' content or private messages.

YouTube

Upload video to the connected channel and read that channel's own analytics, including audience retention, so the team can see how much of a video was actually watched.

LinkedIn

Publish to the connected company presence and read the engagement figures for those posts.

Google Business Profile

Publish updates to the connected business listings and read profile performance, such as impressions, calls and direction requests.

Google Analytics and Search Console

Read website traffic and search performance for the connected property, so social activity can be lined up against site visits and search demand.

Scope of all access

Every connection is limited to accounts the customer owns and has authorised. BuildXFlow has no access to any account that has not been explicitly connected by that account's own administrator.


What we never do

No autonomous posting

Every post is composed by a signed-in team member and approved by a named person before it can be queued. Nothing is generated and published without human review.

No reading other users

We read the connected account's own profile and its own posts' metrics. We do not collect, browse or analyse other users' content, followers or personal information.

No resale, no ad profiles

Platform data is used to show customers their own numbers inside the application. It is never sold, shared with third parties, or used to build advertising or tracking profiles.

No password handling

All connections use the platform's official OAuth flow. Tokens are stored server side, are used only for the actions described above, and are deleted when an account is disconnected.

Retention and deletion details are in the Privacy Policy. Questions about data handling or a deletion request: k.weldon@buildx.com.
