Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 3, 2026

1. Information We Collect

Account information: When you create an ReachPilot account, we collect your name, email address, company name (if provided), and timezone.

OAuth tokens: When you connect social media platforms, we receive and store OAuth access tokens and refresh tokens. These tokens are encrypted at rest using AES-256-GCM and are used solely to publish content, retrieve analytics, and manage your connected accounts on your behalf.

Usage data: We collect information about how you interact with ReachPilot, including features used, content created, posts scheduled, and analytics viewed. This helps us improve the platform.

Payment information: Payment processing is handled by Stripe. We do not store credit card numbers. We receive and store your Stripe customer ID, subscription status, and billing history.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to provide and improve ReachPilot's marketing automation services, including: generating AI-powered content, publishing to connected social media platforms, collecting and displaying analytics, managing your subscription, and sending transactional emails (account confirmations, password resets, billing receipts).

We may send product updates and feature announcements. You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time.

3. Platform Data and OAuth Tokens

When you connect social media accounts, we access platform APIs using OAuth 2.0 with PKCE. We request minimal permissions — only what is required for publishing, scheduling, and analytics retrieval.

OAuth tokens are encrypted at rest using AES-256-GCM and are never shared with third parties. You can revoke any platform connection at any time from your dashboard, which immediately invalidates stored tokens.

We store aggregate analytics data from connected platforms. We do not store personal data of your audience or followers.

4. Cookies and Tracking

ReachPilot uses a cookie consent banner that appears before any non-essential cookies are loaded (GDPR requirement). You can manage your cookie preferences at any time using the "Cookie Preferences" link in the page footer.

Essential cookies (always on): Session cookies for authentication, CSRF protection tokens, and the cookie consent preference itself (reachpilot-consent). These are required for the platform to function and cannot be disabled.

Analytics cookies (opt-in): We use PostHog for product analytics and feature management. PostHog is only loaded if you consent to analytics cookies. PostHog data is used to understand how users interact with ReachPilot and to improve the product.

Marketing cookies (opt-in): Third-party tracking pixels and marketing tools. Currently ReachPilot does not use marketing cookies, but this category is reserved for future use and requires your explicit consent.

We do not sell your data to advertisers or data brokers. We do not use third-party advertising cookies without your consent.

5. Data Security

All platform access tokens are encrypted at rest using AES-256-GCM. All data in transit is protected with TLS 1.3. We use secure HTTPS connections, enforce HSTS headers, and follow industry best practices for data protection.

Our infrastructure runs on Vercel and AWS with automated security scanning, DDoS protection, and geographic redundancy.

6. Data Retention

We retain data for the following periods:

  • Account data: Retained while your account is active.
  • Posts and campaigns: Retained while your account is active; deleted 7 days after account deletion request (grace period).
  • Analytics snapshots: Retained according to your plan tier (Free: 30 days, Pro: 1 year, Agency: 2 years).
  • OAuth tokens: Revoked and deleted immediately upon disconnection or account deletion.
  • Invoices and billing records: Anonymized upon account deletion but retained for 7 years per Australian tax law requirements.
  • Audit logs: Retained for 90 days, then anonymized. Anonymized logs may be retained for security and compliance purposes.
  • Backups: Purged within 90 days of data deletion.

Upon account deletion, we initiate a 7-day grace period. After this period, personal data, content, and OAuth tokens are permanently deleted. You can request immediate deletion at any time by contacting support@reachpilot.com.au.

7. International Data Transfers

ReachPilot is built in Australia and serves users globally. User data is primarily stored in US-based data centers via Vercel and AWS. International data transfers are protected using Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) where applicable.

For users subject to specific data residency requirements, we support data processing agreements (DPAs). Contact us for details.

ReachPilot is not directed at children under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If we become aware that a child under 16 has provided us with personal data, we will take steps to delete that information promptly.

14. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Material changes will be communicated via email at least 30 days before they take effect.
