Privacy Policy

Effective Date: August 16, 2026

1. Information We Collect

AutoNews Bot ("we", "our", or "us") only collects necessary authorization data to operate the news-posting automation service. When you link your TikTok account, we access:

• Basic TikTok profile information (username, display name) via the user.info.basic scope.
• OAuth authorization tokens (Access Token and Refresh Token) required to post content on your behalf.

2. How We Use Your Data

We use your data solely to automate the generation and publication of RSS news summary videos to your authorized TikTok account using the TikTok Content Posting API (video.publish, video.upload).

3. Data Storage and Retention

Authentication tokens are stored securely in environment variables or encrypted configuration files on your self-hosted server or container. We do not sell, share, or monetize any user data or credentials.

4. Third-Party Services

Our application interacts with public RSS news feeds to generate video content and uses official TikTok APIs for video publishing. We do not pass your personal profile data to third parties.

5. Revoking Access

You can revoke access to this app at any time directly through your TikTok account settings under Security & Permissions > Authorized Apps, or by deleting your stored OAuth tokens on your host server.
