Welcome to BirdFusion (“BirdFusion,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting the information associated with your use of our website, services, and integrations.
This Privacy Policy explains how information may be collected, used, processed, and protected when you visit BirdFusion.com or use features and third-party integrations available through our website, including our Pinterest integration.
By using BirdFusion.com, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
1. Information We Collect
Depending on how you interact with BirdFusion, we may collect limited information in the following ways.
Information You Provide
You may voluntarily provide information when you:
- Contact us;
- Submit a form;
- Communicate with us by email;
- Use features that require information to be submitted;
- Connect a supported third-party account or service.
The information collected depends on the feature you use.
Automatically Collected Information
When you visit BirdFusion.com, certain technical information may be collected automatically, including:
- IP address;
- Browser type;
- Device type;
- Operating system;
- Referring pages or websites;
- Pages visited;
- Approximate geographic information;
- Date and time of visits;
- Website interaction and usage information.
We may use cookies and similar technologies to collect some of this information.
2. Pinterest Integration
BirdFusion may provide functionality that integrates with Pinterest through the official Pinterest API.
The Pinterest integration is intended to help authorized users manage Pinterest-related activities, which may include viewing available Pinterest boards, preparing content for Pinterest, selecting content to publish, creating Pins, and managing related publishing activities where permitted by Pinterest.
Pinterest Authorization
BirdFusion uses Pinterest’s authorized authentication process, including OAuth where applicable, to connect a Pinterest account.
Users are redirected to Pinterest to authenticate and authorize the permissions requested by the application.
BirdFusion does not ask users to provide their Pinterest password to BirdFusion and does not use Pinterest passwords or session cookies to access Pinterest accounts.
Users control whether they authorize BirdFusion to access their Pinterest account.
Pinterest Permissions
Depending on the features being used, BirdFusion may request Pinterest API permissions necessary to provide those features.
These permissions may include permission to:
- Read authorized Pinterest boards;
- Read authorized Pin information;
- Create or publish Pins;
- Create or manage boards where applicable; and
- Perform other Pinterest actions specifically authorized by the user and supported by the Pinterest API.
BirdFusion only requests and uses Pinterest permissions required for the functionality offered to the user.
How Pinterest Information Is Used
Information accessed through the Pinterest API is used only to provide Pinterest-related functionality to the authorized user.
For example, Pinterest information may be used to:
- Display available boards so the user can select a destination;
- Allow the user to prepare Pins;
- Publish Pins selected or approved by the user;
- Display information necessary to manage Pinterest-related publishing; and
- Complete API operations specifically requested or authorized by the user.
BirdFusion does not use Pinterest account information obtained through the Pinterest API to build unrelated user profiles.
User Control Over Pinterest Actions
Actions performed through the Pinterest integration are intended to occur with the user’s knowledge and authorization.
Users are responsible for selecting or approving content and actions performed on their Pinterest account through BirdFusion.
BirdFusion does not intend to perform unauthorized Pinterest actions on behalf of users.
3. Pinterest API Data Handling
We handle information obtained through the Pinterest API in accordance with applicable Pinterest Developer Guidelines and API requirements.
Except where storage is expressly permitted by Pinterest, BirdFusion does not permanently store information retrieved from Pinterest through the Pinterest API. When Pinterest information is needed, the application may request current information from the Pinterest API.
Limited technical information necessary to maintain an authorized API connection, such as authorization credentials or tokens where permitted and necessary, may be processed securely for the purpose of providing the requested integration.
Pinterest API information is not sold.
Pinterest API information is not shared with unrelated third parties for advertising, data brokerage, or other unrelated commercial purposes.
Information obtained from a user’s Pinterest account is used to provide services to that authorized user.
4. Pinterest Access Tokens and Security
When Pinterest authorization requires an access token or similar credential, BirdFusion uses that credential solely to communicate with the Pinterest API within the permissions authorized by the user.
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect authorization credentials against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or misuse.
We do not intentionally expose Pinterest API credentials, application secrets, or user authorization tokens publicly.
Users should also protect access to their BirdFusion and Pinterest accounts and devices.
5. Disconnecting Pinterest
Users may stop using the Pinterest integration at any time.
Where a disconnect feature is provided within BirdFusion, users may use it to disconnect their Pinterest integration.
Users may also manage or revoke third-party application authorization through their Pinterest account settings where such controls are available.
After authorization is revoked, BirdFusion will no longer be able to make authorized Pinterest API requests using the revoked authorization.
Revoking access does not remove content, such as Pins, that was already published to Pinterest before authorization was revoked. Users may manage previously published Pinterest content directly through Pinterest where applicable.
6. How We Use Information
Information collected through BirdFusion may be used to:
- Operate and maintain the website;
