Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy is effective as of June 9, 2026.
Postyno ("we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information. This policy describes how we collect, use, store, share, and protect information when you visit postyno.com and any other websites we own and operate (collectively, the "Site").
By using the Site, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with our practices, please discontinue use of the Site.
1. Scope and Data Controller
This policy applies to information collected through the Site and related communication channels (such as email).
For the purposes of applicable data protection laws, Postyno acts as the data controller responsible for your personal information collected through the Site.
If you have questions about this policy or your data rights, contact us at [email protected].
2. Information We Collect
We collect information in several ways depending on how you interact with Postyno.
2.1 Information You Provide Directly
We may collect personal information when you voluntarily contact us, including:
- Your name (if provided);
- Your email address;
- The content of your message, feedback, bug report, or inquiry;
- Any other information you choose to include in communications with us.
We only request personal information when it is reasonably necessary to respond to your request or provide a service.
2.2 Calculator and Tool Input
Most data you enter into our social media calculators and tools is processed locally in your browser. In general, metrics such as follower counts, engagement numbers, ad budgets, and similar inputs are used to perform calculations on your device and are not stored on our servers as part of the calculation workflow.
Please note that browser extensions, network monitoring tools, or compromised devices could still expose data you enter on any website. We recommend using trusted devices and networks.
2.3 Information Collected Automatically
When you visit the Site, certain technical information may be collected automatically, including:
- IP address (which may be truncated or anonymized by analytics providers);
- Browser type and version;
- Operating system and device type;
- Pages visited, time spent, and navigation paths;
- Referring URL (the site that linked you to Postyno);
- Language and locale preferences;
- Date and time of access;
- General geographic location (country or region level, derived from IP).
This information is typically collected in aggregate or pseudonymous form through cookies, server logs, and third-party analytics tools.
2.4 Cookies and Similar Technologies
We use cookies, local storage, pixels, and similar technologies to:
- Enable essential site functionality;
- Remember preferences (such as theme or language where applicable);
- Measure traffic and understand how users interact with our Tools;
- Deliver and measure advertising when ad services are enabled.
For more details, see Section 6 – Cookies and Tracking Technologies below.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
- Providing and improving the Site — operating Tools, fixing bugs, and enhancing performance;
- Communication — responding to contact requests, support inquiries, and feedback;
- Analytics — understanding usage patterns, popular Tools, and areas for improvement;
- Security — detecting abuse, fraud, and unauthorized access attempts;
- Advertising — displaying ads and measuring ad performance when advertising is enabled;
- Legal compliance — fulfilling legal obligations and protecting our rights.
We do not use your calculator inputs for profiling, resale, or targeted marketing in the manner described above, because those inputs are generally not collected by our servers.
4. Legal Bases for Processing (EEA/UK Users)
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction with similar requirements, we process personal data based on one or more of the following legal grounds:

- Contractual necessity — when processing is needed to respond to your specific request;
- Legal obligation — when required to comply with applicable law.
You may withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent, without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.
5. How We Share Information
We do not sell your personal information.
We may share information only in the following circumstances:
- Service providers — trusted third parties that help us operate the Site (hosting, analytics, advertising, email delivery), subject to contractual obligations to protect your data;

|---|---|
| Essential | Required for basic site functionality and security |
| Preference | Remember settings such as theme or language |
| Analytics | Measure traffic and usage (e.g., Google Analytics) |

6.2 Google Analytics
When enabled, we may use Google Analytics to collect anonymous or pseudonymous usage statistics. Google may process data on servers located outside your country. You can learn more in Google's Privacy Policy and opt out via the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
6.3 Microsoft Clarity
When enabled, we may use Microsoft Clarity to understand how users interact with the Site through session recordings and heatmaps. Data is generally aggregated or pseudonymized. See Microsoft's Privacy Statement for details.
6.4 Google AdSense and Advertising Cookies
The Google AdSense service we may use to serve advertising employs cookies (including the DoubleClick cookie) to:
- Show more relevant advertisements;
- Limit how often the same ad is shown to you;
- Measure ad performance and prevent fraud.
For more information, see the official Google AdSense privacy FAQs and Google's Advertising Policies.
We use advertising to help cover the operational costs of the Site and fund future development. Behavioral advertising cookies are designed to show more relevant ads based on general interest categories, not on the specific numbers you enter into our calculators.
6.5 Affiliate and Partner Tracking
Some partners may advertise on our behalf. Affiliate or partner tracking cookies allow us to determine whether users arrived via a partner link so we can attribute referrals correctly and enable applicable promotions. These cookies do not give partners access to your calculator inputs.
6.6 Managing Cookies
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block, delete, or alert you about cookies. You may also use industry opt-out tools for interest-based advertising.
Please note: blocking certain cookies may affect site functionality, ad relevance, or our ability to improve the Tools you use.
If a cookie consent banner is enabled on the Site, your choices made through that banner will be respected for non-essential cookies.
7. Third-Party Links
Our Site may contain links to external websites, including social media platforms, documentation, and partner sites. We have no control over the content or privacy practices of those websites and are not responsible for their policies.
We encourage you to read the privacy policies of every third-party site you visit.
8. International Data Transfers
Postyno may be accessed from countries around the world. If you access the Site from outside the country where our servers or service providers are located, your information may be transferred to, stored in, or processed in jurisdictions that may have different data protection laws than your own.
Where required, we implement appropriate safeguards for international transfers, such as standard contractual clauses or equivalent mechanisms recognized by applicable law.
9. Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.
Typical retention practices include:
- Contact and support messages — retained as long as needed to resolve your inquiry and for a reasonable period thereafter for record-keeping;
- Server logs — retained for a limited period for security and troubleshooting;
- Analytics data — retained according to the settings and policies of our analytics providers;
- Calculator inputs — generally not retained on our servers.
When data is no longer needed, we delete or anonymize it using commercially reasonable methods.
10. Data Security
We use commercially acceptable technical and organizational measures to protect information against loss, theft, and unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, or modification.
These measures may include HTTPS encryption, access controls, and careful selection of infrastructure providers. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.
If you believe your interaction with us is no longer secure, please contact us immediately at [email protected].

11.2 Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal. There is currently no universal industry standard for responding to DNT signals. At this time, we do not respond to DNT browser signals, but you can manage cookies and advertising preferences as described above.
