1. Overview
IQ Pins (“IQ Pins,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) provides software that helps businesses create, review, schedule and analyze Pinterest-ready content from user-provided products, articles, URLs, files and other owned business materials.
IQ Pins is an independent service and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Pinterest.
2. Information we collect
We may collect the following categories of information:
- Account information: name, email address, company name, account settings and login information.
- Billing information: plan type, subscription status, invoices and payment processor identifiers. Payment card details are handled by our payment provider and are not stored directly by IQ Pins.
- Business content: URLs, product data, article text, images, CSV files, RSS feeds, brand settings, logo, preferred style, keywords and other materials users provide for Pin generation.
- Generated content: Pin drafts, titles, descriptions, destination links, board selections, approvals, edits, rejections, scheduling status and publishing logs.
- Usage data: pages visited, feature usage, device/browser details, IP address, timestamps, log files and approximate location inferred from IP address.
- Support communications: messages, requests, files and feedback sent to IQ Pins.
3. Pinterest OAuth data
When a user connects a Pinterest Business account, IQ Pins uses Pinterest OAuth authorization. We do not ask for, collect or store the user’s Pinterest password.
Depending on the permissions granted by the user and approved by Pinterest, IQ Pins may access account profile information, boards, Pins, selected publishing permissions and analytics information needed to provide the service.
Planned Pinterest API scopes may include permissions such as user_accounts:read, boards:read, boards:write, pins:read, pins:write and analytics:read. Actual scopes may change as the product evolves and as permitted by Pinterest.
Users can disconnect Pinterest access from IQ Pins account settings or by revoking access from Pinterest account settings where available.
4. How we use information
We use information to:
- create and manage user accounts;
- import user-provided content sources;
- generate original Pin drafts, titles and descriptions from user-provided materials;
- enable users to review, approve, edit, reject, schedule and publish selected Pins;
- retrieve and display analytics such as impressions, saves, clicks, outbound clicks, top Pins and top boards;
- provide support, troubleshoot errors and improve the service;
- send service-related notices, product updates and billing messages;
- protect the service, prevent abuse and comply with legal obligations.
5. How we share information
We do not sell Pinterest API data or user business content to third parties. We may share limited information with service providers that help us operate IQ Pins, such as hosting providers, analytics providers, payment processors, email providers and support tools.
We may disclose information if required by law, to protect rights and safety, to investigate abuse, or in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets.
6. Data retention
We retain account information while the account is active. We retain content, Pin drafts, publishing logs and analytics data as long as needed to provide the service, maintain records, troubleshoot issues and comply with legal obligations.
Users may request deletion of their account and related data by following the instructions on the Data Deletion page.
7. Your choices and rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict or export personal information. You may also object to certain processing or withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
To make a request, contact us at support@iqpins.com.
8. Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect information. No online service can guarantee absolute security, but we work to protect OAuth tokens, account access and user content from unauthorized access.
9. Children
IQ Pins is intended for business users and is not directed to children under 13 or the minimum age required by applicable law. We do not knowingly collect information from children.
10. Changes to this policy
