Privacy Policy for BS Checker

Last Updated: [Insert Date]

Welcome to BS Checker ("we," "us," or "our"). We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our service via WhatsApp or visit our website (bschecker.ai). Please read this privacy policy carefully. If you do not agree with the terms of this privacy policy, please do not access the service.

Collection of Your Information

We may collect information about you in a variety of ways. The information we may collect via the Service depends on the content and materials you use, and includes:

  • Personal Data: While using our Service, we may ask you for certain personally identifiable information that can be used to contact or identify you ("Personal Data"). Currently, this is limited to your WhatsApp phone number, which is necessary to provide the service. We do not request or store names, email addresses, or other direct identifiers unless you provide them voluntarily (e.g., through support contact).
  • Video Links/Content: We receive the video links (e.g., TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts) that you forward to us for analysis. The content of the videos themselves may be temporarily processed by our AI systems to perform the fact-checking service. We do not store the video content permanently after the analysis is complete.
  • Usage Data: We may automatically collect standard log information and usage details, such as IP addresses (anonymized where possible), browser type, operating system, access times, and the pages viewed directly before and after accessing our website (if applicable). Through WhatsApp, we see interaction timestamps.
  • Analytics Data: We may use third-party services like Google Analytics and PostHog to collect, monitor, and analyze website usage to improve our service.

Use of Your Information

Having accurate information about you permits us to provide you with a smooth, efficient, and customized experience. Specifically, we may use information collected about you via the Service or our Site to:

  • Provide and operate the BS Checker service.
  • Process video links and deliver fact-checking results.
  • Improve our AI models and service accuracy.
  • Monitor and analyze usage and trends to improve your experience.
  • Respond to your comments, questions, and requests and provide customer service.
  • Protect against fraudulent, unauthorized, or illegal activity.
  • Comply with legal obligations.

We do not sell, trade, rent, or otherwise transfer your personally identifiable information to outside parties except as described below:

These parties are obligated to protect your data and use it only for the purposes we specify.
  • By Law or to Protect Rights: If we believe the release of information about you is necessary to respond to legal process, to investigate or remedy potential violations of our policies, or to protect the rights, property, and safety of others, we may share your information as permitted or required by any applicable law, rule, or regulation.
  • Business Transfers: We may share or transfer your information in connection with, or during negotiations of, any merger, sale of company assets, financing, or acquisition of all or a portion of our business to another company.
