Privacy Policy

Effective date: · Last updated:

This policy explains what data Admino processes, including data we receive from Meta through Instagram Login and the Instagram API, why we process it, who we share it with, how long we keep it, and how you can have it deleted.

Short version. We use Instagram data only to provide the features the account owner sets up in Admino. We never sell Platform Data, never use it for advertising, and never share it with data brokers. You can delete your data at any time; see Data deletion instructions.

1. Who we are

Admino (admino.click) is a software service that helps businesses and creators manage their Instagram professional accounts: automatic replies to direct messages and comments, conversational forms and lead capture, a shared inbox, scheduled publishing, ice breakers and persistent menus, page performance reports, caption and subtitle tools, and selling and checkout. Admino is available as a web panel at app.admino.click and as Android and iOS apps.

Admino is operated by CreativeQuants Agency (“Admino”, “we”, “us”), which is the data controller for the personal data described in this policy, except where Section 2 says otherwise. You can reach us using the details in Contact us.

2. Scope and roles

This policy covers the Admino web panel, the Admino mobile apps, our websites, and the data we receive from Meta Platforms (“Platform Data”) when an account owner connects an Instagram professional account using Instagram Login.

3. Data we collect

3.1 Data we receive from Instagram (Platform Data)

When an account owner connects an Instagram professional account, they approve these permissions on Instagram’s own screen: instagram_business_basic, instagram_business_manage_messages, instagram_business_manage_comments, instagram_business_content_publish and instagram_business_manage_insights. We also subscribe to Instagram’s message and comment notifications for the connected account. We never ask for or receive an Instagram password.

CategoryWhat it includesWhy we need it
Connected account profileInstagram account ID, username, name, profile picture, biography and website, account type, and follower, following and media counts. We keep our own copy of the profile picture so it keeps displaying after Instagram’s link expires.To identify and display the connected account in Admino, and to tailor features to it.
Access tokenThe access token Instagram issues when the account owner connects, and its expiry date.To call the Instagram API on the account owner’s behalf. It is stored only on our servers and is never sent to browsers or apps.
Direct messagesMessages sent to and from the connected account: the sender’s Instagram-scoped ID, text, attachments, story replies and references, button and quick-reply taps, and timestamps. For people who message the account, their username, name and profile picture as made available by Instagram.To show conversations in the inbox, to match and send the automatic replies and forms the account owner configured, and to let the account owner reply.
CommentsComments on the connected account’s posts: comment ID, text, commenter’s ID and username, the post it belongs to, and timestamps.To send the comment replies and private replies the account owner configured, and to avoid replying to the same comment twice.
Follower statusWhether a person who messaged the account follows it.Only for replies the account owner restricted to followers (or to non-followers).
Media and captionsThe account’s posts, reels and stories: media type, captions, permalinks, thumbnails and timestamps, and the media and captions the account owner publishes through Admino.To schedule and publish content, let the account owner choose posts for automations, and show content in reports.
InsightsAccount and post metrics such as reach, views, profile views, interactions, likes, comments, shares, saves, and follows and unfollows.To show the account owner their page performance reports.
Messaging settingsThe account’s ice breakers and persistent menu.To let the account owner view and edit them.
Contact details in messagesPhone numbers and email addresses that people choose to write in messages, comments or form answers to the connected account.To give the account owner a list of their own leads, which they can export or delete.

3.2 Data account owners give us

3.3 Technical data

IP address, device and browser type, app version, sign-in sessions, push notification device tokens, usage counters (for example, messages sent against a plan’s limits), and technical logs and performance traces we use to keep the service running and secure.

4. How we use data

We use Platform Data only to provide, maintain and secure the features the account owner chooses to use, and for no other purpose. Specifically, we use data to:

We do not sell, license or rent Platform Data; use it for advertising, ad targeting or marketing to the people who interact with a connected account; combine it across different account owners; build profiles of individuals for purposes unrelated to the account owner’s use of Admino; or use it to train general-purpose models. Data from one workspace is never visible to another workspace.

Where data protection law (such as the GDPR or UK GDPR) requires a legal basis, we rely on:

For messages and comments from people who interact with a connected account, the account owner is responsible for having a legal basis for using Admino to process them; we process them only on the account owner’s instructions.

6. How we share data

We never sell Platform Data and never share it with data brokers or advertising networks.

7. Service providers

We use carefully selected service providers (for example, hosting, storage, messaging and notification delivery, payment processing, monitoring and other technical processing) that process data on our behalf, only on our instructions, under confidentiality and data protection obligations, and never for their own purposes. These include providers for:

Each provider receives only the data needed for its task. Where they use sub-processors, they are bound by equivalent obligations. You can ask us for the current list of providers that process your data using the details in Contact us.

8. International transfers

Our main application servers are located in the United Kingdom. Data may also be processed in other countries where we or our service providers operate, which may be outside your own country. Where we transfer personal data internationally, we use appropriate safeguards, such as contractual commitments that require the recipient to protect the data to the standard described in this policy, and we transfer only what is needed for the purpose.

9. Retention

We keep data only for as long as needed to provide the service to the account owner, or as required by law. In particular:

DataHow long we keep it
Instagram access tokenWhile the Instagram account is connected. It is replaced when it is refreshed and deleted when the account owner deletes their Admino account or asks us to delete the Instagram account’s data.
Profile picture copyRefreshed at most every 7 days while the account is in use; deleted with the Instagram account’s data.
Messages, comments, leads, automations, published content and insightsWhile the account owner’s Admino account is active, so they can see their history and so automations work. The account owner can delete individual leads, form responses and files at any time.
Short-lived processing stateAutomatically expires: form sessions after 30 minutes, follower confirmations after 24 hours, pending reply continuations after 7 days, and sign-in sessions after 7 days.
Disconnected Instagram accountDisconnecting stops all access and automation immediately. The account’s settings are kept so that reconnecting restores them, until the account owner deletes their Admino account or asks us to delete the data (see Section 10).
After a deletion request or account deletionRemoved from our live systems as soon as reasonably possible and in any case within 30 days.
Database backupsDaily backups are kept for 14 days and then deleted, so deleted data disappears from backups within 14 days of being removed from our live systems.
Billing and invoice recordsAs long as tax and accounting law requires. These records do not contain Platform Data.

We also delete Platform Data when we no longer need it for a legitimate business purpose, when we stop providing Admino, or when Meta or the law requires us to.

10. Data deletion instructions

You can ask us to delete your data at any time. Choose the option that fits you.

Option A: Delete your Admino account (account owners)

  1. Open the Admino app on Android or iOS and sign in.
  2. Go to Settings → Delete my account.
  3. Request a verification code, enter it, and confirm.

Your account is deleted immediately. Your name, phone number and sign-in methods are erased, the Instagram accounts in the workspaces you own are deleted together with their access tokens, automations, replies, messages, leads, content and reports, and you are removed from any team you belong to. Remaining related records are removed within 30 days. Billing records are kept only as the law requires.

Option B: Ask us to delete your data

If you use the web panel, want to delete only one Instagram account’s data, or cannot use the app:

  1. Contact us using any channel in Contact us, with the subject “Data deletion request”.
  2. Tell us the Instagram username, and the phone number of your Admino account if you have one.
  3. We will verify that the request comes from the account owner (for example, with a code sent to the account’s phone number) to protect you from fraudulent requests.
  4. We will delete the data and confirm when it is done, within 30 days of verification.

Option C: You messaged or commented on a business that uses Admino

Contact us as described in Option B with your Instagram username and the business account you interacted with. We will delete your messages, comments and contact details held for that business within 30 days, and let the business know. You can also ask the business directly.

Disconnecting versus deleting

Disconnecting an Instagram account in the Admino panel (Accounts → Disconnect) or removing Admino in Instagram (Section 11) stops all access and automation straight away. It does not by itself erase the data already stored; use Option A or Option B for that.

11. Revoking access in Instagram

You can remove Admino’s access to your Instagram account at any time from Instagram itself:

  1. In the Instagram app, go to your profile and open the menu.
  2. Open Settings and activity → Website permissions → Apps and websites. You can also type “Apps and websites” in the settings search box.
  3. Under Active, select Admino and tap Remove.

Once removed, Admino can no longer receive new data from your account or act on it. To have stored data deleted, follow Section 10.

12. Security

We protect data with measures appropriate to its sensitivity, including:

No system is completely secure. If we become aware of a breach affecting your personal data, we will notify you and the relevant authorities as the law requires, and notify Meta where Platform Data is involved.

13. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

To exercise these rights, contact us. We will respond within 30 days and may need to verify your identity first. We do not charge for reasonable requests.

14. Children

Admino is a business tool and is not directed at children. Account owners must be at least 18 years old, or the age of majority where they live. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13 (or the higher minimum age that applies where they live). If you believe a child has given us personal data, contact us and we will delete it.

15. Cookies

The Admino panel uses a strictly necessary cookie to keep you signed in, for up to 7 days. Our marketing website remembers your theme preference in your browser and may use aggregate analytics, which you can turn off from the link in the website footer. We do not use advertising cookies.

16. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as Admino changes or the law requires. We will change the “Last updated” date at the top of this page, and for material changes we will notify account owners in the app or by message before the change takes effect. Earlier versions are available on request.

17. Contact us
