Privacy Policy — Dark Hope Analytics
Effective date: 2026-08-29
This policy describes how Dark Hope Analytics, an internal analytics application for the Dark Hope content project, handles information obtained after authorization. The application is operated by an individual developer and is not offered to third parties as a public service.
What may be accessed
Depending on the permissions that are granted, the application may access:
- authorized account identifier;
- basic authorized profile information;
- public or authorized video metadata;
- video performance metrics such as available views, likes, comments and shares;
- OAuth authorization information necessary to operate the integration.
Why this information is used
- account authentication;
- content analytics;
- performance measurement;
- content optimization;
- security and operational integrity.
What is not done
- no sale of personal data;
- no advertising-data brokerage;
- no unrelated profiling;
- no access beyond granted permissions;
- no intentional collection of passwords;
- no request for a TikTok password through the application;
- no use of TikTok data for targeted advertising;
- no publishing of content through the TikTok Display API.
OAuth
Authentication is performed through the platform’s authorization process. The application must never ask the user to provide their TikTok password directly.
Tokens
Authorization credentials are treated as confidential and stored securely for operational use.
Retention
Data is retained only as reasonably necessary for analytics, security, historical performance comparison and operation, subject to deletion and revocation rights described on the Data & Deletion page.
Sharing
Personal data is not sold. It is not disclosed to unrelated third parties. Infrastructure or service providers may process data only as necessary to operate the site or application.
Third-party platform
TikTok remains governed by its own terms and privacy policies. Dark Hope Analytics is not affiliated with, sponsored by, certified by or endorsed by TikTok.
Security
Reasonable technical and organizational safeguards are used to protect authorization information and retained analytics records.
User rights
Authorization may be revoked through TikTok where supported. A request to delete locally retained application-associated profile or metric data may be made as described at /data-deletion/.
Changes
This policy may be updated. The effective date at the top of this page will be shown when a revision is published.
