Privacy Policy
Effective November 15, 2026
The short version. asuri is a Mac app. Everything it reads from your TikTok and Instagram accounts is stored on your own Mac. We run no server that receives your account data, videos, captions or stats, and does not sell or share them.
Who this policy covers
This policy describes how the asuri Mac app and this website handle information. "We" means the developer of asuri. You can reach us at factolyapp@gmail.com.
Information the app handles
From TikTok
When you connect a TikTok account with Login with TikTok, you approve the permissions shown on TikTok's sign-in page. With them, asuri receives:
- Account details (
user.info.basic): your TikTok open ID, username and display name, used to show which account is connected. - Posting settings (
video.publish): the audience options TikTok allows for your account, whether comments, Duet and Stitch are available, and the longest video you may post. asuri uses this permission to upload the videos you queue and to check that each upload finished. - Your public videos (
video.list): each video's ID, title, description, posting time, cover image link, share link, length, and its view, like, comment and share counts. - Access tokens: the access and refresh tokens TikTok issues so the app can act for the account you connected.
From Instagram
When you connect an Instagram creator or business account, asuri receives your account name, your posts and their insights (such as views, likes, comments, shares, saves, reach and watch time), and an access token. If you choose to watch other public creator or business accounts, asuri reads their public profile figures and public posts through Instagram's API.
What you add yourself
The videos you queue, their captions, titles, hashtag sets, brands and post times.
How the information is used
- To post the videos you queued to the accounts you connected, at the times you set.
- To show stats and comparisons for your posts inside the app.
- To keep you signed in, by refreshing access tokens.
We do not use your information for advertising, profiling, or training AI models, and we do not sell it.
Where it is stored
All of it stays on your Mac. Access tokens and API keys are kept in the macOS Keychain. Stats, captions and queue details are kept in the app's local storage. Video files stay where you saved them. asuri has no account system and we receive none of this information.
Who it is shared with
- TikTok and Meta. The app talks directly to TikTok's and Instagram's APIs to post your videos and read your stats. Their own privacy policies apply to what they hold.
- treg, only if you choose it. You may connect a TikTok account through treg (treg.to) instead of signing in directly. In that case your posts and API requests pass through treg, and treg's privacy policy applies.
- Claude, only if you turn it on. The optional Claude connection lets an AI assistant running on your Mac read your stats. It is off by default, read-only, reachable only from your own Mac, and protected by a token. What the assistant reads is then handled under that assistant provider's terms.
Nothing else leaves your Mac. The app contains no analytics, advertising or tracking code.
Keeping and deleting your information
- Disconnect an account. In Accounts, choose Disconnect. The app deletes that account's tokens from the Keychain and asks TikTok to revoke them.
- Remove access from TikTok's side. In the TikTok app, open Settings and privacy, then Security and permissions, then Manage app permissions, and remove asuri.
- Delete a brand. Deleting a brand in the app removes its queue, posts and stats.
- Delete everything. Deleting the app and its data from your Mac removes all stored information. Because we hold no copy, there is nothing further for us to delete.
Information stays on your Mac until you remove it in one of these ways.
This website
This website is a set of static pages. It sets no cookies and runs no analytics or tracking scripts. The company that hosts it may keep standard server logs, such as IP address and time of request, to operate and protect the service.
Security
Tokens are stored in the macOS Keychain and all communication with TikTok and Instagram uses HTTPS. Keeping your Mac and its user account secure protects the information stored there.
Children
asuri is not intended for children under 13, or under the minimum age required to hold a TikTok or Instagram account where you live.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
