Privacy Policy

Last Updated: January 2025

1. Introduction

Welcome to PinSuite ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights when you use our website (https://pinsuite.app) and our Chrome browser extension (collectively, the "Services").

By using our Services, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

2. Information We Collect

A. Information You Provide to Us

We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide when using our Services:

  • Account Information: When you sign in using Google OAuth, we receive your name, email address, and profile picture. We use this to create and manage your account.
  • Payment Information: We use Stripe to process payments. Your credit card details are processed directly by Stripe and are never stored on our servers. We only receive confirmation of successful payments.

B. Information Automatically Collected

We automatically collect certain information when you use our Services:

  • Usage Data: We collect anonymized analytics data to understand how users interact with our website (pages visited, features used). This helps us improve user experience.
  • Session Cookies: We use essential cookies to maintain your login session and authentication status. These are necessary for the Services to function.
  • Download History: We store a record of your Pinterest board downloads (URLs, pin counts, timestamps) to display in your dashboard and enforce usage limits.

C. Chrome Extension Data Collection

Our Chrome Extension ("PinSuite - Pinterest Board Downloader") collects and uses the following data:

  • Pinterest Session Cookies: The extension accesses your Pinterest session cookies locally in your browser only to authenticate requests to Pinterest on your behalf. These cookies are used to fetch your private boards and pins. We never transmit your Pinterest cookies to our servers.
  • Current Tab URL: When you click the extension icon, we detect if you're on a Pinterest page to auto-populate the download URL field.
  • Extension Authentication Token: A secure token generated on our website that links the extension to your PinSuite account. This token does not contain your Pinterest credentials.

Important: Your Pinterest password is never collected, stored, or transmitted by PinSuite. The extension only uses browser-stored session cookies that Pinterest has already set in your browser.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

  • To Provide Our Services: Enable you to download your Pinterest boards, manage your subscription, and access your download history.
  • To Process Payments: Manage your subscription and billing through Stripe.
  • To Communicate With You: Send service-related emails such as account verification, subscription updates, and important notices.
  • To Improve Our Services: Analyze usage patterns to enhance functionality and user experience.
  • To Enforce Usage Limits: Track download counts to enforce subscription plan limits.

4. Information Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We only share information with:

  • Service Providers:
    • Stripe - Payment processing
    • Google - Authentication (OAuth)
    • Simple Analytics - Privacy-focused website analytics (no personal data collected)
  • Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or governmental request.

5. Data Storage and Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your data:

  • All data transmission is encrypted using HTTPS/TLS.
  • Passwords are never stored - we use Google OAuth for authentication.
  • Payment data is handled entirely by Stripe (PCI-DSS compliant).
  • Database access is restricted and monitored.

Downloaded ZIP files are stored temporarily (up to 24 hours) to allow you to download them, then automatically deleted.

6. Data Retention

We retain your data for as long as your account is active:

  • Account Data: Retained until you request account deletion.
  • Download History: Retained for the duration of your account.
  • Downloaded Files: Automatically deleted within 24 hours of creation.
  • Extension Tokens: Expire after 7 days and are automatically deleted.

  • Correction: Request correction of inaccurate personal data.
  • Deletion: Request deletion of your account and associated data.

8. Children's Privacy

Our Services are not intended for children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us.

9. Third-Party Links

Our Services may contain links to third-party websites (such as Pinterest). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these external sites. We encourage you to review their privacy policies.
