Privacy and data handling
This notice describes the application’s data handling and the controls available in FreeSocialAPI Tools. A public source result can still contain personal information; only submit material you intend to process.
Lookup inputs and external services
Submitting a Lookup sends the input needed for that job to the configured upstream service. X jobs use a username or post ID; video jobs can pass the submitted share link or share text. A page opened with a filled query in its URL starts that Lookup after loading, and the URL can remain in browser history.
Source cover images may load when a result is displayed. Source video playback starts after you choose Play; media downloads and external API links connect your browser to the destination service. The interface also loads web fonts from Google Fonts. These services’ handling of connection data is separate from the application’s product measurements.
Google sign-in and browser storage
Sign-in uses Google authentication and application session cookies. The account system supports name, email, profile image and provider identifiers, along with authentication tokens and expiry information. Session records also support IP-address and browser information; this notice does not claim that the service never processes those fields.
The browser stores the chosen interface language in local storage under freesocialapi.locale. Clearing that preference does not delete account-backed Saved Results. Copy and export actions use your clipboard or create a file in your browser; those local copies are under your browser and device’s control.
Guest daily allowance
For Guest quota enforcement, the application derives a pseudonymous Guest Identity from the Cloudflare-supplied IP address using a keyed hash. The quota record uses this identity rather than the raw address. Signed-in quota records use the account identity.
Quota Windows expire at midnight UTC. Expired windows are removed by scheduled cleanup. This quota design is not a promise that session records or hosting infrastructure never process IP addresses.
Saved Results and deletion controls
Saving an X result stores the account owner, tool, normalized input and result snapshot. The application keeps the latest 100 Saved Results per account. Older snapshots are removed when newer ones exceed this limit; there is no separate time-based expiry in this feature.
Sign in and open Saved Results to delete individual snapshots belonging to your account. WeChat, Douyin and Kuaishou tools do not create Saved Results. Deleting a snapshot does not delete files you already exported or copies held by the source service.
Video cache expiry is not a deletion deadline
WeChat, Douyin and Kuaishou results can be cached with their canonical share URL and returned metadata or media links. The application stops reading an entry after 90 minutes from its last write, or at its recorded expiry if earlier. Reading a cached entry does not extend that window.
Expired cache rows are removed by the daily cleanup scheduled for 00:15 UTC; a failed cleanup can delay physical removal. This is not a deletion deadline for every copy of the data, and it is not a guarantee that a source media link stays usable for 90 minutes.
Product measurements and retention limits
The application sends allowlisted Product Event data points to Cloudflare Analytics Engine for aggregate product measurement. Fields describe the tool, action, sign-in state, outcome, classified error, duration and a closed download-format variant. These event payloads exclude Lookup inputs, result contents, account or Guest identities, raw IP addresses, request headers and media URLs.
The website also loads a Cloudflare browser measurement script for site and performance measurement. That browser measurement is separate from the application’s allowlisted Product Events; their payload exclusions do not describe every field processed by the browser script or hosting infrastructure.
Separate retention periods for upstream services, authentication records, hosting operational records and infrastructure backups have not been verified for this notice. Cache expiry and Saved Result deletion should not be read as promises to delete every upstream record or backup. No fixed retention period for those other systems is stated here.
