Facebook and Instagram Data We Collect
When you connect Facebook or Instagram, we collect and store the following via Meta's APIs:
- Profile: Username, profile picture, follower count, following count, media count, biography.
- Insights (daily): Reach, impressions, accounts engaged, engagement rate, follower count, new followers, unfollowers, profile views, website clicks, email and phone clicks.
- Posts & media: Post IDs, captions, timestamps, likes, comments, reach, saves, shares, video watch time (for Reels).
- Demographics (optional): Age, gender, country, city of your followers (when available).
When: Data is collected when you connect your account (one-time) and during periodic syncs (typically every 24 hours or when you trigger a refresh).
Why: To display analytics, compare performance over time, and provide insights to improve your content.
Deletion: You can disconnect at any time in Settings. We stop syncing immediately. To delete stored data, deactivate or delete your account; we will remove your data within 30 days of request.
Track Others feature: When you track a public Instagram account (not your own), we store that account's public profile data (username, follower count, engagement, posts) via Meta's business_discovery API. This data is used only to display comparisons in your dashboard and is deleted when you remove the account from tracking or delete your account.
TikTok Data We Collect
When you connect TikTok, we collect and store the following via TikTok Login Kit and Display API:
- Profile: Display name, username, bio text, profile link, avatar, verification status, follower count, following count, total likes, and public video count.
- Videos: Video IDs, titles, captions, publish time, duration, dimensions, share links, embed links, cover images, and current view, like, comment, and share counts.
- Daily trends (computed by us): Follower changes, view changes, and engagement rates built from daily sync snapshots — TikTok does not provide historical analytics through this API.
- OAuth tokens: Access and refresh tokens to keep your connection active until you disconnect.
We do not collect: TikTok ad revenue, Creator Fund earnings, profile reach, demographics, or your external link-in-bio URL (not exposed by TikTok's API).
When: Data is collected when you connect TikTok and during periodic syncs (typically every 24 hours).
Why: To show your TikTok stats alongside Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube in one dashboard.
Deletion: Disconnect TikTok in Manage connections. We stop syncing immediately. Stored data is removed per our retention policy when you delete your account or request deletion.
TikTok Data Processing
Creator Roam accesses TikTok data only after you authorize our app through TikTok Login Kit. We use read-only scopes for profile and public video metadata. You can revoke access in Manage connections or in your TikTok app settings.
YouTube and Google Data We Collect
When you connect your YouTube channel, we collect and store the following via Google's YouTube Data API and YouTube Analytics API:
- Google account (sign-in): Your Google account identifier, email address, and basic profile name — used to sign you in and link your channel to your Creator Roam account.
- Channel profile: Channel name, description, thumbnail, country, custom URL, subscriber count, total view count, and video count.
- Channel analytics (daily): Views, watch time, average view duration, likes, comments, shares, subscribers gained, and subscribers lost.
- Audience breakdowns: Top countries, traffic sources, and age/gender viewer percentages (when YouTube provides them for your channel).
- Videos: Video IDs, titles, publish dates, thumbnails, duration, and privacy status for videos in your uploads list.
- Per-video analytics: Views, watch time, likes, comments, and shares for your videos over the selected time window.
- Revenue estimates (when available): Estimated ad revenue and related monetization figures for channels in the YouTube Partner Program. Zeros or missing values are normal if your channel is not monetized.
When: Data is collected when you connect your YouTube channel (one-time authorization) and during periodic syncs (typically every 24 hours, or when you trigger a refresh after connecting).
Why: To show your YouTube stats in one dashboard, track performance over time, compare platforms, and help you understand what content is working — the same purpose as our Instagram and Facebook analytics.
Deletion: You can disconnect YouTube at any time in Manage connections (Settings). We stop syncing immediately. To remove stored YouTube data, disconnect the channel or delete your Creator Roam account; we will remove your data within 30 days of a deletion request. You can also revoke Creator Roam's access in your Google Account permissions at any time.

This includes user tokens for authentication and personalized analytics, page tokens to retrieve page insights and engagement metrics, and access tokens for app functionality and enhanced insights. Users explicitly consent to this data processing when connecting their accounts and can revoke access at any time through Settings or their social media platform settings.
Google and YouTube Data Processing
Creator Roam accesses and processes data from Google and YouTube to provide channel analytics and insights for creators.
