1. Overview
UnfollowMonkey is operated by Paul-Louis Hery, Zurich, Switzerland.
For privacy matters, contact privacy@unfollow-monkey.com.
2. Data We Collect
We process account identifiers from X/Twitter OAuth, including username, profile metadata, and email when provided by the authentication flow.
We store follower snapshots and unfollower event history needed to provide dashboard history and DM notifications.
For paid subscriptions, we process Stripe customer/subscription identifiers and status. We do not store full payment card numbers.
3. Purposes and Legal Bases
We process data to deliver the service you request (contract performance), including checks, event generation, and account display.
We process limited operational data for security, fraud prevention, debugging, and legal compliance (legitimate interests and legal obligations).
Where consent is required by law, we rely on consent.
4. Service Emails
Account emails are used for service, billing, and security communications only.
We do not send marketing newsletters by default.
6. International Transfers
Primary hosting is in Germany/EU, but some processing may involve providers operating in other countries.
When transfers occur, we rely on appropriate safeguards required by applicable data-protection law.
7. Retention
Account and follower-event data is retained while your account is active.
After account deletion, active account-related data is deleted or anonymized within 30 days, except records that must be retained for legal, tax, accounting, or fraud-prevention obligations.
8. Security
We use technical and organizational measures designed to reduce unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure.
No online service can guarantee absolute security.
9. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may request access, correction, deletion, portability, restriction, or objection to processing.
Requests can be sent to privacy@unfollow-monkey.com.
11. EU/EEA Privacy Notice
If you are in the EU/EEA, GDPR rights include access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, and data portability.
You may lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.
At this stage, no specific Article 27 EU representative is designated.

French users may exercise rights requests at privacy@unfollow-monkey.com.
13. US Privacy Notice
US state privacy laws may grant rights to know, delete, correct, and obtain a copy of personal data.
We do not sell personal information for monetary value and do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.
