Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 24, 2026

1. Introduction

Relay (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates a social publishing platform that allows users to create, schedule, and publish content to multiple social media platforms, including TikTok. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and share information when you use our service.

2. Information We Collect

We collect the following categories of information:

  • Account information: Name, email address, and credentials you provide when creating an account.
  • Social platform tokens: OAuth access tokens you grant us to publish content on connected platforms (e.g., TikTok, Instagram, Twitter/X). These tokens are stored securely and used solely to perform actions you explicitly authorize.
  • Content you create: Posts, captions, media files, and scheduling data you input into Relay.
  • Usage data: Pages visited, features used, timestamps, and error logs collected to improve the service.
  • Device & technical data: IP address, browser type, and operating system.

3. How We Use Your Information

  • To authenticate you and manage your account.
  • To publish, schedule, and manage content on social platforms on your behalf, using only the permissions you explicitly grant.
  • To send transactional emails (e.g., password reset, post confirmation).
  • To analyze usage patterns and improve the service.
  • To detect and prevent fraud, abuse, or security incidents.
  • To comply with legal obligations.

4. TikTok API Data

When you connect your TikTok account, Relay accesses your TikTok profile and publishing capabilities solely to perform actions you request (e.g., uploading videos or images). We do not sell, rent, or share your TikTok data with third parties. We do not use TikTok data to build advertising profiles. Data obtained through the TikTok API is used in accordance with TikTok's Platform Terms.

5. Sharing of Information

We do not sell your personal data. We may share information with:

  • Social platforms: To fulfill publishing requests you initiate.
  • Service providers: Hosting, analytics, and infrastructure vendors who process data on our behalf under confidentiality agreements.
  • Legal authorities: When required by law, court order, or to protect the rights and safety of users or the public.

6. Data Retention

We retain your account data for as long as your account is active. Social platform tokens are deleted promptly when you disconnect a platform or delete your account. You may request deletion of your data at any time by contacting us.

7. Security

We use industry-standard measures including encryption in transit (TLS) and at rest to protect your data. No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you.
  • Correct inaccurate data.
  • Request deletion of your data.
  • Withdraw consent or revoke platform access at any time.
  • Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

To exercise these rights, email us at privacy@relay.app.

9. Children's Privacy

Relay is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with their data, contact us and we will delete it promptly.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by posting the updated policy with a new effective date. Continued use of Relay after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
