- Consent: Where you have given explicit consent for specific processing activities, such as marketing communications (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR)

5. Information Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may share your information only in the following circumstances:
- Service Providers: We share data with trusted third-party providers who assist us in operating the Service (e.g., cloud hosting, payment processing, email delivery, analytics). These providers are contractually obligated to protect your data and use it only for the purposes we specify.
- Social Media Platforms: When you connect social accounts and publish content through Kanvify, we transmit your content and necessary account information to those platforms via their official APIs. Each platform’s own privacy policy governs how they use this data.
- Legal Requirements: We may disclose your information if required by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of our company, our users, or the public.
- Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you via email and/or a prominent notice on the Service before your data is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
- With Your Consent: We may share your information for any other purpose with your explicit consent.
6. Third-Party Social Media Platforms
Kanvify integrates with third-party social media platforms (including but not limited to Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X/Twitter, and Threads) through their official APIs. When you connect a social media account:
- We access your accounts only through official, authorized APIs and comply with each platform’s developer terms of service
- We use OAuth authentication — we never receive, see, or store your social media passwords
- OAuth access tokens are encrypted at rest using industry-standard encryption
- Each social media platform has its own privacy policy and terms of service that govern how they collect, use, and share your data — we are not responsible for their practices
- Content published to social media platforms through Kanvify remains on those platforms even if you delete your Kanvify account. You must delete published content directly from each social media platform.
- We are not responsible for changes to third-party APIs, platform policies, or service interruptions that may affect your ability to publish or manage content
