Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 14, 2026

Overview

PinForge is a private social content management tool operated for The Cozy Cart Life. It is used by authorized operators to create, organize, schedule, and publish content to connected Pinterest accounts, Facebook Pages, and professional Instagram accounts. PinForge is not offered as a public or multi-tenant service and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Pinterest or Meta.

Information We Collect

Facebook and Instagram Integration

PinForge uses Meta's official authorization and Graph API flows. The operator chooses to connect a Meta account and grants access on Meta's authorization screen. PinForge uses that access to show Pages the operator is permitted to manage, identify a linked professional Instagram account, and publish content only after the operator selects a destination and explicitly approves or schedules that content.

PinForge does not read Facebook comments, reactions, insights, private messages, friends, or personal timelines. It does not publish without an explicit publishing instruction. Meta data retrieved by PinForge is not sent to Anthropic or OpenAI.

Pinterest Integration

PinForge uses Pinterest's official OAuth flow to display the connected account and its boards and to create boards or Pins requested by the operator. Pinterest profile and board names are requested when needed rather than permanently cached. PinForge stores the OAuth tokens and destination identifier needed to maintain the connection and execute publishing instructions.

How We Use Information

Product photos and descriptions supplied by the operator may be sent to Anthropic and OpenAI to generate text or images. This AI processing uses operator-provided content, not information retrieved from Pinterest, Facebook, or Instagram.

Data Sharing and Service Providers

We do not sell personal information or share it with third parties for behavioral advertising. Information is handled only as needed to operate PinForge:

We may also disclose information when required by law or reasonably necessary to protect the service.

Data Retention

Social OAuth tokens are retained until they expire, the operator disconnects the connection, or deletion is requested. Meta Page access tokens are requested when needed and are not separately stored. Scheduled records and their image files remain until deleted or needed to maintain the operator's publication history. Disconnecting removes the stored connection token but does not automatically delete separately stored content, history, or posts already published on a third-party platform. Temporary backups and provider logs may persist for a limited period under the provider's normal security and recovery practices.

Your Choices and Data Deletion

The operator can disconnect a Pinterest or Meta connection within PinForge and can cancel or delete eligible content and scheduling records. Meta access can also be removed through Facebook's Business Integrations settings. Removing access prevents future API operations but does not remove posts already published to Facebook or Instagram; those can be removed using the applicable platform's controls.

PinForge does not offer public user registration or maintain accounts for outside users. The authorized operator manages stored connection and content data directly through the app. Detailed instructions are available on our User Data Deletion page.

Security

PinForge uses access controls and managed cloud infrastructure intended to protect stored information. No internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure. Social access tokens are handled by server-side components and are not intentionally exposed in the browser interface.

International Processing

Our service providers may process information in the United States or other countries where they operate. Their processing is governed by their applicable terms and privacy commitments.

Children's Privacy

PinForge is an internal business tool and is not directed to children under 13.
