Privacy Policy

ATEN Studio — TikTok Content Publishing Tool · Effective date: 14 July 2026

1. Who We Are

ATEN Studio ("we", "us", "our") operates an internal tool that publishes ATEN Studio's own video content to authorized TikTok accounts using the TikTok Content Posting API. This policy explains what data the tool accesses, how it is used, and how it is protected.

2. Data We Access

When an authorized TikTok account is connected via TikTok Login Kit, the tool accesses only the following, and only for the connected account:

DataSourceWhy
Account identifier (open_id)TikTok OAuthTo verify the correct account before publishing (safety guard against posting to the wrong account)
Basic profile (display name)TikTok user.info.basicTo confirm account identity
Access & refresh tokensTikTok OAuthTo upload and publish videos on behalf of the account
Creator posting infoTikTok creator_infoTo respect the account's allowed privacy and posting options

We do not collect end-user personal data, browsing behavior, contacts, or any data beyond what is listed above.

3. How We Use the Data

The accessed data is used solely to: (a) verify that content is published to the correct, authorized account; (b) upload and publish ATEN Studio's video content; and (c) check posting eligibility and privacy options. The data is never used for advertising, profiling, or sale.

4. Scopes Requested

5. Data Storage & Security

Access and refresh tokens are stored as encrypted server-side environment variables, never in public code or client-side files, and are never displayed except once at the moment of authorization for secure setup. Tokens are transmitted only over HTTPS directly to TikTok's official API endpoints.

6. Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or share accessed data with any third party. Data is exchanged only between the tool and TikTok's official APIs.

7. Data Retention

Tokens are retained only for as long as the account remains connected for publishing. When authorization is revoked, the corresponding tokens are removed from our environment and are no longer usable.

8. Revoking Access

Account holders may revoke the tool's access at any time from their TikTok account settings (Manage app permissions) or by contacting us. Revocation immediately ends the tool's ability to access that account.

9. Compliance

This tool operates in accordance with the TikTok Developer Terms and Content Posting API policies, and applicable data-protection law including Egypt's Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL).

10. Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. The effective date above reflects the latest revision.
