Privacy Policy

Effective September 6, 2026

Kinetic Takeover LLC ("Kinetic Takeover," "we," "our," or "us") operates websites, digital products, educational resources, and business technology tools, including The Upgrade Index and the private Kinetic Takeover Marketing HQ application.

We respect your privacy and are committed to explaining how personal information is collected, used, stored, and protected.

This Privacy Policy describes our practices regarding information collected through our websites, contact forms, digital services, and authorized third-party integrations, including Pinterest.

1. Information We Collect

Depending on how you interact with our services, we may collect:

Information you provide voluntarily

  • Name and email address when you contact us or subscribe to communications

  • Information submitted through website forms

  • Business inquiries and customer communications

  • Information necessary to provide requested services or digital products

Website and analytics information

Where applicable, our websites may collect information such as:

  • Pages visited and interactions with website content

  • Browser type, device information, and approximate geographic location

  • Referral sources and traffic information

  • Cookies and similar technologies used for functionality and analytics

Authorized third-party platform information

When a platform account is connected to an authorized application, we may access limited information permitted by that platform and the account owner's authorization.

2. Pinterest API Integration

Kinetic Takeover operates a private marketing management application that may connect to the Kinetic Takeover Pinterest Business account through the official Pinterest API.

The integration is designed to support:

  • Retrieving the authenticated account's profile information and available boards

  • Preparing and publishing approved Pins

  • Scheduling owner-selected content for publication

  • Accessing permitted Pin and account performance information

  • Monitoring publication results and identifying errors

Account authorization

Pinterest access is granted through the official authorization process. Kinetic Takeover does not request or store Pinterest account passwords.

The application is intended for authorized internal business use and does not provide public access to Pinterest account management features.

Use of Pinterest information

Pinterest information is accessed only as needed for authorized marketing operations and in accordance with applicable Pinterest Developer and API policies.

Information obtained from Pinterest is not sold or shared with data brokers or third-party advertising networks.

Pinterest API information is not used to train, fine-tune, or develop artificial intelligence models.

Data storage and retention

The application may maintain original marketing content, owner-created publishing schedules, integration configuration, authorization information, and operational records generated by the application.

Pinterest API information is accessed as needed rather than retained in a separate permanent dataset, except where retention is expressly permitted by Pinterest's applicable terms.

Authentication tokens and integration secrets are handled through restricted server-side systems and are not intentionally exposed in public website code.

Disconnecting Pinterest

The authorized account owner may revoke application access through Pinterest's account settings. Information retained by Kinetic Takeover that is no longer necessary or legally required will be deleted or de-identified as appropriate and subject to applicable platform requirements.

3. How We Use Information

We may use collected information to:

  • Operate and maintain our websites and applications

  • Respond to inquiries and provide requested services

  • Deliver digital products and educational content

  • Manage authorized marketing and publishing operations

  • Understand website performance

  • Improve functionality, security, and user experience

  • Send communications where requested or otherwise legally permitted

  • Meet applicable legal obligations

4. Artificial Intelligence and Automation

Kinetic Takeover uses AI-assisted tools for content research, drafting, design, marketing planning, and internal business operations.

AI-generated marketing materials are subject to internal review and approval before publication through connected platforms.

We do not use Pinterest API data to train AI models.

Information may be processed through service providers that support our applications, subject to applicable agreements, permissions, and privacy requirements.

5. Cookies & Analytics

Our websites may use essential cookies and, where enabled, analytics or marketing technologies.

These technologies may help us understand website traffic, evaluate content effectiveness, maintain site functionality, and improve visitor experiences.

Visitors may manage cookies through browser settings or available website privacy controls.

Where legally required, we obtain consent before using nonessential tracking technologies.

6. Affiliate Links and Third-Party Websites

The Upgrade Index and other Kinetic Takeover properties may contain affiliate links.

If visitors purchase products or services through certain affiliate links, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to them.

When visitors follow external links, they become subject to the destination website's privacy policies and practices.

We encourage visitors to review third-party policies before providing personal information.

7. Information Sharing

We may share information with service providers when necessary to operate our services, including providers of website hosting, analytics, email delivery, secure application infrastructure, and payment processing.

We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect our rights, or to maintain the security of our services.

We do not sell personal information obtained through the Pinterest API.

8. Data Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect information against unauthorized access, disclosure, loss, or misuse.

These may include account authentication, access restrictions, secure credential management, and application-level permissions.

No electronic storage or transmission system can be guaranteed completely secure.

9. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and maintain appropriate business records.

Retention periods depend on the type of information, the service involved, and applicable legal or platform requirements.

10. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information, and to object to or limit certain processing activities.

You may contact us using the information below to submit a privacy-related request.

We will review requests and respond in accordance with applicable law.

11. Children's Privacy

Our services are not directed toward children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through these services.

If we become aware that such information was collected without appropriate authorization, we will take steps to address it in accordance with applicable law.

12. Updates to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our services, technology, legal requirements, or data practices.

Updates will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
