In short: we keep only what we need to write, schedule and publish the posts you approve. We never see your LinkedIn password. We don't sell your data, show ads or use your posts to train AI models. You can ask us to delete everything at any time.
1. Who we are
Linknetic (the "Service") is run by HHU ("we", "us"). We are responsible for the personal data described here. Contact us at support@linknetic.com.
2. What we collect
| Data | What it is |
|---|---|
| Account | Your LinkedIn member ID and name (as LinkedIn shares them when you sign in), the display name you choose in Settings, and the time zone of your device, so posts go out at your local time. |
| Sign-in | Codes that keep Claude, ChatGPT and the website signed in. We store them only in hashed (scrambled) form. Composio holds the permission LinkedIn gives to post for you. |
| Posts | The text, visibility and media of your drafts and posts, their scheduled times, their status (scheduled, published, failed, cancelled), any error messages, and links to your published posts. |
| Media | Images, videos and PDF carousels you upload or that are made for you, plus preview images of carousel pages. |
| Writing profile | If you use the My Voice or Authority Builder skills, a short summary of how you write, or of your audience and topics, that you approved to save. |
| Plan | Your plan, its status and your trial dates. When payments start, the payment provider handles your card details. We don't store them. |
| Technical | Your IP address, kept briefly in memory to limit repeated sign-in attempts, and standard server logs used for security and fixing problems. |
We never ask for or see your LinkedIn password. We use LinkedIn's permission only to identify you and to publish the posts you approve. We don't read your LinkedIn messages, connections or feed.
3. What your AI assistant sees
When you use the Service in Claude or ChatGPT, your conversation is handled by Anthropic or OpenAI under their own privacy policies. Our tools send your assistant the information it needs to help you, such as your draft, your scheduled posts or a note that a post failed. Those details then become part of your chat.
4. How we use it
- To run the Service: create drafts, show the approval card, publish and schedule posts, and show your calendar, dashboard, plan and connections.
- To keep your account safe: enforce posting limits, block abuse and fix errors.
- To tell you when a post fails, and to answer your support requests.
- To meet our legal duties.
We don't sell your personal data, we don't use it for advertising, and we don't use your posts to train AI models.
5. Who processes it
We share data only with the companies that help us run the Service, and only what they need:
| Company | Why |
|---|---|
| Composio | Manages the LinkedIn connection and sends your approved posts to LinkedIn. |
| Signs you in and publishes your posts. | |
| Amazon Web Services (S3) | Stores your images, videos and carousels. |
| Our database and server hosts | Store your account and posts, and run the Service. |
| Anthropic, OpenAI | Run your AI assistant when you choose to use it. |
| Google Fonts | Serves the fonts on our website, so it receives your IP address. |
We may also share data if the law requires it, to protect our rights or people's safety, or as part of a sale or merger of our business. In that case this policy keeps applying to your data.
6. Legal bases
Where laws such as the GDPR apply, we rely on these legal bases. Running the Service relies on our contract with you. Security and fixing problems rely on our legitimate interests. Optional features, like saving a writing profile, rely on your consent. Some data we keep because the law requires it.
7. International transfers
The companies above may process data outside your country. When we transfer data, we rely on safeguards the law accepts, such as standard contractual clauses.
8. How long we keep it
- Drafts you don't post are deleted automatically after 24 hours.
- Posts and their media are kept while your account exists, so your calendar and history work, or until you ask us to delete them.
- Website sign-ins last up to 30 days. Assistant sign-in codes expire and are replaced.
- Your account is kept until you ask us to delete it. We then delete your account, posts, files and writing profiles within 30 days, except what the law makes us keep.
9. Your choices and rights
- Change your display name in Settings.
- Disconnect Claude or ChatGPT on the Connections page.
- Remove the app's access to LinkedIn at any time in your LinkedIn settings (Data privacy → Permitted services).
- Ask us for a copy of your data, to correct it, to delete it or to limit how we use it, by writing to support@linknetic.com. We reply within 30 days.
- Complain to your local data protection authority.
11. Security
We use HTTPS, store sign-in codes only in hashed form, limit who can access data, and limit repeated attempts. No system is completely secure. If a breach affects you, we'll tell you as the law requires.
12. Children
The Service is not meant for anyone under 18, and we don't knowingly collect data from children.
13. Changes
When we update this policy, we change the date at the top. If a change is important, we'll also tell you on the website or in the app.
