What Information We Collect

We collect information in two main ways:

  1. Information you provide to us
  2. Information we collect automatically

1. Information You Provide

When you use Lolynk, especially when you sign in via Instagram (Meta), you give us access to:

  • Instagram Profile Information: including your name, username, profile picture, and bio
  • Email Address: provided by Meta upon authentication
  • Your Instagram Posts: a list of your public posts (we don’t access private content)

This access happens only after you explicitly authorize it through Instagram's secure login process.

2. Information We Collect Automatically

Like most web services, we automatically collect some data about your use of Lolynk, such as:

  • Usage data: what pages you visit, what you click, and how long you stay
  • Device and browser info: including IP address, operating system, and screen size
  • Referral data: how you found our site (e.g., from Instagram)

This is collected through Google Analytics, which helps us understand and improve our service.

How We Use Your Information

  • Creating and managing your Lolynk page: We use your Instagram info to display your profile and posts, and let you manage your link page.
  • Improving the platform: We analyze usage data (via Google Analytics) to understand what features are working well and where people drop off.
  • Security and abuse prevention: We use logs and basic metadata to detect, prevent, and address security issues or misuse.
  • Providing support: If you reach out to us, we’ll use your email and platform data to troubleshoot and help you.

Cookies and Tracking

We use cookies and similar technologies to:

  • Keep you logged in
  • Track activity on the site via Google Analytics

Google Analytics

Google Analytics helps us understand user behavior and traffic patterns. It does not give us personally identifiable information like your Instagram login or email.
You can opt out of Google Analytics by:

Who We Share Your Data With

We don’t sell your personal information. We don’t share it with advertisers. Your data is only accessible by a small number of people within our company, and only when it’s necessary.

  • ❌ Sell your data
  • ❌ Use your info for third-party ads
  • ❌ Share your information with external marketers
  • ✅ Store your data securely on trusted servers
  • ✅ Use it internally to improve your experience
  • ✅ Respect your choices and privacy rights

Your Rights and Choices

You’re in control of your data. Here’s what you can do at any time:

1. Revoke Instagram Access

You can disconnect Lolynk from Instagram by going to your Meta account settings and removing access for our app.

2. Delete Your Account and Data

Want your Lolynk account and all related data deleted? No problem. Just email us at contact@lolinedigitals.com from the email associated with your account, and we’ll take care of it.

3. Opt Out of Analytics

You can opt out of Google Analytics using browser tools or cookie blockers as described above. We’re working on giving users more direct controls from their dashboard, but until then, email us and we’ll handle requests manually.

How We Keep Your Data Safe

  • Encrypted connections (HTTPS)
  • Secure data storage with access controls
  • Regular platform monitoring

While no system is 100% secure, we continuously improve our practices to keep your data safe.

Children’s Privacy

Lolynk is not intended for children under 13. If we learn that we’ve unintentionally collected data from someone under this age, we’ll delete it promptly.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we’ll:

  • Post the updated version here
  • Update the “Effective” date at the top
  • Notify users by email or in-app (when appropriate)

We encourage you to review this page periodically.
