Privacy policy
Here we explain what personal data the Reelumi service processes on reelumi.ai: the website, the panel for account holders, the administration panel and the tasks the server runs in the background, for example downloading and analysing Reels. This policy covers people who visit the website, have a Reelumi account or write to us, as well as people whose public Instagram profiles we process and people who appear in clips uploaded to the panel.
In short
- A Reelumi account is set up by the controller or by a member of the Reelumi team authorised by the controller. We process your account data, the publicly available data of your Instagram profile and what you enter in the panel. If you connect your Instagram account, we also receive statistics on your posts from Meta, for example reach and saves — without messages or comments.
- Reel analyses, chats with the assistant and the Content planner use AI models, to which OpenRouter forwards our requests. Today these are models from Google and OpenAI; after a model change, they may be models from another company, for example Anthropic. We only use providers that declare that they don’t train models on the content of requests. A provider may keep the content for the period set out in its policies, for example Google for up to 55 days, to detect abuse.
- We delete Reel videos 30 days after downloading them, in exceptional cases after 37.
- You can delete your account in the panel: Channel profile → Delete account. We delete account data 30 days after the account is closed, and it disappears from backups after the next 7 nightly database backups.
- We don’t sell data. We have no ads or analytics tools. We use cookies only for logging in and to remember the language you choose.
- If your public Instagram profile has ended up in Reelumi and you don’t want that, you can object: write to hi@reelumi.ai. We will delete its Reels, videos and analyses from all accounts and won’t save them again.
- The server and the database are in the European Union. Some of our providers are based in the USA.
Controller and contact
The data controller is Anna Berlińska, ul. Sosnowa 13 lok. 4, 61-428 Poznań, NIP 9721222190, REGON 383847567.
For any matter concerning your personal data, write to hi@reelumi.ai. We have not appointed a data protection officer, so the controller replies to you directly.
Waitlist
This part applies to people who left their email address on the waitlist at reelumi.ai, and to people who received an email from us with a link to confirm their address. Joining the waitlist does not create a Reelumi account.
What we store
- the email address entered in the form
- the date and time of the sign-up
- the language of the form (Polish or English), so that we email you in that language
- the version of the consent text agreed to when signing up, so that it is clear what exactly the consent covered
- a record of the address confirmation: when a link was last requested, when we sent the last link, how many links we sent and when the address was confirmed
- when the controller was notified about a new person on the list
We don’t store your IP address with your entry on the list. To stop anyone from flooding the form with thousands of addresses, we count sign-up attempts from a single connection. For this, we keep a hash of your IP address (for IPv6, only of its first half, which usually identifies a single connection) for no longer than 3 hours after the last sign-up attempt. We calculate the hash with our secret key and the date, so the same address gives a different hash every day, and without the key the IP address cannot be recovered from it.
An entry in the server log (see “Website visits and the server log”) is also created when the form is submitted and when the link from the email is opened, and that link contains the identifier of your entry on the list. So for the 15 days that we keep the log, your email address could be linked to your IP address. We don’t do that.
Purpose and legal basis
The list has one purpose: to send you an email saying that Reelumi has launched. The legal basis is your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR). The launch email is information about our service, and the law requires your prior consent to send it by email (Article 398 of the Polish Electronic Communications Law of 12 July 2024). By ticking the box in the form, you give both consents at once, and you can withdraw both at any time.
After you sign up, we send an email with a confirmation link to the address given in the form. Only addresses confirmed by clicking this link will get the launch email. This is how we check that the consent was given by the person the address belongs to, and how we can prove it (Article 7(1) GDPR). The email also contains a link to remove the address. We send another link only if the same address is entered in the form again: up to 3 links, each at least 10 minutes after the previous one. The confirmation email is only for confirming the address and contains no ads. The legal basis is our legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR): the launch email should only reach people who asked for it themselves.
We don’t check whether anyone opened the confirmation email: the logo is embedded in the email, so opening it doesn’t load anything from the internet, and the links lead straight to reelumi.ai. If this email reached you without your involvement, someone else entered your address in the form on reelumi.ai — that is the only place we got it from. You can simply ignore the email: without confirmation, we will delete the address after 7 days, and you can delete it right away with the removal link.
When someone confirms their address, the controller receives an email through Resend with the number of new people on the list and the time of the first and last sign-up. Your address is not in that email. We don’t add you to a newsletter or to any other mailings.
The short-lived hash of your IP address is used only to protect the form from abuse. The legal basis is our legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).
If you write to us, including by replying to the confirmation email, your message will reach our inbox. We describe the purpose, legal basis and retention period for correspondence in the section “Emails”.
Who sees your address and who we share it with
We don’t sell the list or share it with anyone for their own purposes. The list can be accessed by the controller, people authorised by the controller who have access to the Reelumi panel, and people who maintain the service on our behalf. The following store or transmit the data on our behalf:
- IT services — people and companies that maintain the Reelumi server and the accounts of the services listed below. They only access the list when this is needed to maintain the service or delete data, for example after you withdraw consent.
- OVH — the server and the database where the list is kept, and the server log. The server is located in the European Union.
- Resend (Plus Five Five, Inc., San Francisco, USA) — sends you the confirmation email and, when Reelumi launches, the launch email. It sends the controller notifications about new people on the list (without addresses).
- Cloudflare (Cloudflare, Inc., USA) — forwards messages sent to hi@reelumi.ai to the controller’s inbox.
In addition, the controller’s Gmail inbox receives the notifications about the number of new people on the list (without addresses) and the messages you send to hi@reelumi.ai, including replies to the confirmation email. This is a regular Gmail account — we describe the terms of this inbox in the section “Who we share data with”.
Transfers of your address outside the European Economic Area
Resend and Cloudflare may process data in the USA. Resend always processes it there, even when the email itself is sent by its server in Ireland.
Both companies take part in the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework. The transfer is therefore based on a decision of the European Commission confirming an adequate level of protection (Article 45 GDPR). Our data processing agreement with Resend also provides for standard contractual clauses approved by the Commission. You can get a copy of these safeguards by writing to hi@reelumi.ai.
Google may transfer messages from the Gmail inbox outside the EEA under the terms of its service. Google LLC also takes part in the Data Privacy Framework.
How long we keep your address
We delete an unconfirmed address 7 days after the last request for a link. The server checks this automatically every hour. Signing up in the form counts as a request for a link, and so does signing up again with the same address, as long as it is within the link limit described above.
A confirmed address stays on the list until the first of these events:
- We send the news that Reelumi has launched. We then delete the list within 30 days of that mailing.
- You withdraw your consent. The removal link in our email deletes your address right away, and if you write to hi@reelumi.ai, we delete it promptly.
- It has been 12 months since the sign-up. The server then deletes the entry by itself (it checks this automatically every hour).
We download a file with the list from the panel only for the launch mailing and delete it after that mailing. Database backups are made once a day on the same server, and we keep the last 7, so a deleted address disappears from the backups after the next seven nightly backups, usually after a week. We delete the hash of your IP address no later than 3 hours after the last sign-up attempt, and if it ends up in a nightly backup, it disappears together with that backup. We delete server log entries after 15 days. How long we keep correspondence is explained in the section “Emails”.
Resend keeps sent emails, including the confirmation email with your address, in its sending log for 30 days. If a mailbox permanently rejects an email from us or the recipient marks it as spam, Resend adds the address to our account’s block list so that nothing more is sent to it. That entry stays there with no time limit — we will remove it if you ask us to. Removing your address from the waitlist does not remove it from Resend’s sending log or block list.
Withdrawing consent and objecting
- You can withdraw your consent at any time — the easiest way is the removal link in our email. This does not affect the lawfulness of what we did before you withdrew it.
- You can object to processing based on our legitimate interest: the confirmation email, the hash of your IP address that protects the form, server log entries and our correspondence with you.
Just write to hi@reelumi.ai, preferably from the address on the list, so that we can easily confirm the address is yours. You also have the right to access your data and get a copy of it, to have it corrected or deleted, to restrict its processing, to data portability and to lodge a complaint with the President of the Personal Data Protection Office (UODO). See the section “Your rights” for details.
Good to know
- Giving your address is voluntary. Without it, or without confirming it with the link, we can’t let you know about the launch — and that is the only consequence.
- We don’t profile you or make automated decisions about you.
- Joining the waitlist does not create a Reelumi account and is not a newsletter subscription.
Website visits and the server log
Every time you visit reelumi.ai (including through the old address reelumi.pl), our server records the following in its log, as any web server does: your IP address, the time, the address of the page you visited, the page you came from (if your browser shares it) and the name of your browser. If there is a server error, it also records a description of the error. The addresses of panel pages contain the profile’s address, which is usually its name on Instagram.
The log is used for security and for diagnosing failures. The legal basis is our legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). We delete the entries after 15 days.
The application also keeps a technical log: messages about errors and completed tasks. It does not record visitors’ IP addresses. It may contain account identifiers, page addresses and Instagram profile names. We don’t delete this log after a set number of days. Each part of it has a size limit, and once the limit is exceeded, the oldest entries disappear. Entries from the application server also disappear every time the application is updated. Some entries may stay for weeks, or even months when updates are rare. This log is used for diagnosing failures. The legal basis is our legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).
Reelumi account
A Reelumi account is set up by the controller or by a member of the Reelumi team authorised by the controller. When doing so, they enter your email address, name, plan and usually the name of your Instagram profile. You set your password using a one-time link. If you forget it, we will send a new link to the account’s email address (see “Emails”).
Account and login data
We store:
- email address, name and account type: a person who uses Reelumi, a person who manages accounts, or administration
- password — only as a hash from which the password cannot be read
- if you log in with Google — the identifier of your Google account, which links it to your Reelumi account, and the scope of the consent given in Google (access to your email address). When you log in, Google sends us this identifier, your email address, whether the address is verified and, for Google Workspace accounts, also the company’s domain. We don’t get your name or picture from Google, and we don’t store access tokens to your Google account
- login session: when the login took place, from which IP address and in which browser
- one-time link for setting a password — it works until it is used, for up to 7 days, and one sent by email after a request for a new password — for up to an hour
- panel language (Polish or English)
- name and address of the profile in the panel, time zone, plan and its limits
- who gave access to the profile and when
To make it harder to guess passwords and flood other people’s inboxes, we count login attempts, requests for a new password and attempts to set a new password from a single IP address, and we also count emails with a link for each account. These counters exist only in the server’s memory and disappear when it restarts.
Content in the panel
We also store what is created in the panel:
- the channel profile: how you film, your channel goals, your audience, the channel’s topics, topics and words you avoid, the direction of the channel, your way of speaking and writing with a sample text, niche hashtags, content language and notes
- chats with the assistant: questions, answers, pinned notes and the data the assistant quoted
- the Content planner: ideas, their versions, chats about ideas and the publishing calendar
- weekly summaries and notification settings: the day, the time and an email address, if you provide one
- tracked profiles and a note on why you track them, if you write one
- the cost register and task log: what we asked providers to do for your account and when, how much it cost and how it ended
We describe data from Instagram and analysis results in the sections “Data from Instagram” and “AI analysis”. Fields you fill in with your own words are sent to AI models together with the rest of the channel profile. Don’t enter data there that you don’t want to pass on, especially about your health.
Build a Reel from clips (beta)
This is a test feature, available to selected accounts. In it, you upload one to three video clips with sound. We prepare a preview of them, describe their content (shots, key moments and a transcript of speech) and, at your instruction, put them together into a Reel. The clips may show the image and voice of the person who uploaded them and of people in the frame.
In a project, we store the clips, their working copies (for example the preview and thumbnails), the description of their content, the speech transcript, captions, the chat with the assistant about the Reel and the finished Reels. You can also record your voice for the Reel with your microphone — we store this recording and its speech transcript, and delete them together with the project. We keep the files in Cloudflare R2. The description and the speech transcript are prepared by an AI model, to which OpenRouter forwards our requests — on the same terms as for Reel analysis (see “AI analysis”). Clips from this feature are not sent to deAPI.
The legal basis is our contract with you (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR). We receive the data of people who appear in the clips from the person who uploaded them. We process it on the basis of our legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR), in order to provide the service requested by the person uploading the clips. Objecting to this processing is described in the subsection “Right to object (Article 21 GDPR)”.
Billing
Today we settle payments manually: the controller issues an invoice outside Reelumi and marks the period as paid in the panel. In Reelumi, we store the plan and its status, billing periods, amounts, payment dates, invoice numbers, requests to change the plan and statements concerning the right to withdraw from the contract. Reelumi doesn’t collect a tax ID or an address — invoice details stay in the controller’s accounting records.
Who sees account data
You see your account data in the panel. If your account is managed by the controller or a member of the Reelumi team, that person sees everything in your profile in the panel, including chats with the assistant and the Content planner. People who maintain the service on our behalf also have access to the database (see “Who we share data with”).
Purposes and legal bases
- We run your account and provide the service: logging in (with a password or with Google) and the new-password link, downloading and analysing Reels, statistics from a connected Instagram account, the assistant, the Content planner, building Reels from clips, weekly summaries and billing. The legal basis is our contract with you (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR).
- We protect your account from takeover: we store the session with the IP address and the browser name, and count login attempts and requests for a new password. The legal basis is our legitimate interest, namely account security (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).
- We keep invoices and payment confirmations because tax law requires it (Article 6(1)(c) GDPR).
- We record which member of the Reelumi team carried out certain actions in the panel, for example marked a payment or gave access to a profile, so that this can be verified later. The legal basis is our legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).
Giving an email address and a name is a condition for creating an account. Without an Instagram profile name, we can’t prepare analyses.
Deleting and closing your account
You can delete your account in the panel: Channel profile → the “Your account” section → “Delete account” (reelumi.ai/app/konto/usun). On a phone, “Channel profile” is the gear icon in the header, next to the light and dark mode switch. The page first shows what will disappear and when, and you confirm the deletion with your password.
- We immediately log you out on all devices, it is no longer possible to log in, and we stop downloading data from Instagram.
- 30 days after the account is closed, at the latest the following night, we delete all account data: profiles with their Reels, covers and videos, transcripts, analyses and advice, tracked profiles and niche trends, chats with the assistant, the Content planner, “Build a Reel from clips” projects with their clips and finished Reels, the channel profile, settings, the connection to the Instagram account and its statistics, weekly summaries, billing history, the cost register and the task log.
- We delete login data (email, name, password hash, Google account identifier) together with the account. It stays only if you have access to another Reelumi account.
- The data disappears from database backups after the next 7 nightly backups.
If another person in Reelumi tracks your Instagram profile, their copy doesn’t disappear together with your account. You can object — we describe this in the section “Data from Instagram”.
For 30 days after deletion, the account can be restored: write to hi@reelumi.ai. We restore it only at the request of the person it belongs to.
An account can also be closed by the controller or by the member of the Reelumi team who manages it. The effects are the same, and the closure can be reversed within 30 days.
If you manage other people’s profiles in Reelumi, those profiles stay — you only lose access to them. Reelumi team accounts aren’t deleted in the panel: we delete them on request sent to hi@reelumi.ai.
Invoices and payment confirmations are kept by the controller in their own accounting records for the period required by tax law. Deleting the account doesn’t cover them.
Data from Instagram
We get data about profiles and Reels only from Instagram and — apart from statistics from a connected account — only data that is publicly visible there. We receive reach, saves and other statistics on your posts from Meta only if you connect your Instagram account to Reelumi (see below). We don’t see messages.
Your profile
When you give the name of your Instagram profile (or the person setting up your account gives it), we download its publicly available data: the profile name, the name or display name, bio, link, profile picture (we keep a copy of it to show it in the panel), category, the numbers of followers, following and posts, as well as Reels: the video with sound, the cover, caption, hashtags, accounts tagged in the caption, the audio used, the date and the numbers of views, likes and comments. From the provider’s response, we store the profile and Reel data. We don’t store other people’s comments or lists of similar profiles.
Apify downloads the data for us from publicly available Instagram pages. On the first download, we fetch some of the earlier Reels (how many depends on the plan), and then once a day we refresh the profile and the latest Reels. We store videos, covers and the copy of the profile picture in Cloudflare R2.
The legal basis is our contract with you (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR). We process the data of people who appear in your Reels or are tagged in them on the basis of our legitimate interest, like the data of the people described below.
Connecting an Instagram account
When this feature is available for your account, you can connect your Instagram account (a creator or business account) to Reelumi in the channel profile: Instagram account → “Connect Instagram account”. You then log in on Meta’s page — with Instagram or Facebook — and choose the account. We don’t see your password. Connecting is voluntary.
From Meta, we receive the account’s identifier and name, the identifiers of the business portfolio and of the connection itself, the scope of the consent you gave and an access key (token). Once a day, we use the token to download statistics on your latest posts: reach, saves, shares and the total number of interactions, and for Reels also the average and total watch time and the percentage of views skipped in the first 3 seconds. We store them only for posts that are already in Reelumi and show them in the panel. We don’t pass them to AI models. We store the token encrypted.
We don’t read messages or comments, we don’t publish anything on your behalf and we don’t download data about the people who watch your Reels.
You can disconnect the account in the same place with the “Disconnect” button. We then delete the token and the statistics immediately, and they disappear from database backups after the next 7 nightly backups. You can also revoke Reelumi’s access in Meta: business portfolio settings → Integrations → Connected apps. When Meta stops accepting our token, we delete it, and the statistics already collected stay until you disconnect the account in the panel or delete your Reelumi account.
The legal basis is our contract with you (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR).
Tracked profiles
In the Inspirations tab, you can also track other people’s profiles. We then download their publicly available data in the same way as the data of your profile, but we don’t copy their profile pictures. After you remove a profile from the list, we stop downloading it, and we delete its Reels, covers, videos, transcripts and analyses after 30 days, at the latest the following night. Mentions of it in your chats with the assistant, weekly summaries, advice and ideas stay for as long as you have an account.
Profiles of people who don’t use Reelumi
Who this applies to. If you have a public Instagram profile, we may process its data even though you don’t use Reelumi. This happens when a person using Reelumi points to it, when you publish a Reel under a hashtag that such a person has entered, or when we use your public materials about Instagram for our tips. This also applies to people whom an analysed Reel shows, tags or mentions. For our tips, we also use public articles from blogs about social media, and we store them. Source and data. Apify downloads the Instagram data for us from publicly available pages, and we download the articles ourselves. We store the profile name, the name or display name, bio, link, the address of the profile picture (we copy the picture itself only when someone enters this profile in Reelumi as their own), the category and the numbers of followers, following and posts. For Reels, we store the video with picture and sound (and with it the image and voice of the people appearing in it), the cover, caption, hashtags, accounts tagged in the caption, the audio used, the date and the numbers of views, likes and comments. We also store the text of what is said in the Reel and its analysis prepared with the help of AI: a description of the scenes, the on-screen text and an assessment. From articles, we store the title, the author and the content. Purpose, legal basis, recipients. We process it to prepare analyses and tips for people who use Reelumi. The legal basis is our legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). The data is seen by people in whose panel your profile or Reel appears, and by the providers listed in the section “Who we share data with”. How long. We keep profile data while someone tracks the profile and for 30 days after it is removed from the list. We keep videos for 30 days after downloading (in exceptional cases 37), Reels found under hashtags — 60 days, and the materials we use for our tips — currently with no fixed period (unreviewed statements — 180 days). Ideas and mentions of the profile in chats with the assistant, weekly summaries and advice stay until the account of the person who tracked it is deleted. Objection. You can object at any time by writing to hi@reelumi.ai. We will then delete, from all accounts, your profile data, your Reels, covers, videos, transcripts and analyses, ideas saved on their basis and materials in the knowledge base. On the list of objections, we will keep only the profile name and the date of the objection, so that we don’t save them again. Mentions of your profile in saved chats with the assistant, weekly summaries and advice disappear together with the account they are in. The same applies to ideas from a profile that someone removed from their tracked profiles more than 30 days earlier. If an article in the knowledge base was written by you, we will delete it at your request. We will remove quotes from your statements in the description of Instagram’s rules that we use for our tips with the next update of the application. The data will disappear from backups after the next 7 nightly database backups.
AI analysis
Reel analyses, chats with the assistant, the Content planner and tidying up transcripts are done by AI models. We send them only what the given feature needs:
- for Reel analysis — the video (picture and sound), the cover, caption, hashtags, transcript and the numbers of views, likes and comments, as well as your channel profile, so that the tips fit the way you work
- in a chat with the assistant — your questions, earlier messages in the chat, the channel profile and data from your account that the assistant looks up, for example numbers, captions and transcripts of Reels
- in the Content planner — the description of the idea, your instructions, the channel profile and excerpts of captions and speech from your Reels
- in the “Build a Reel from clips” feature — a copy of the uploaded clip (picture and sound) and the voice recording from the microphone, and when putting the Reel together, also the description of the clips, the speech transcript and your instructions
- for spelling correction — the text of what is said in the Reel
- for building the knowledge base about Instagram — the texts of the materials we use for our tips
We call the models through OpenRouter (OpenRouter, Inc., USA), which forwards the request to the model provider. Today we use models from Google (Gemini) and OpenAI (GPT); the controller chooses in the panel which of them handles a given feature. After a model change, requests may be handled by another company available through OpenRouter, for example Anthropic (Claude). A request is handled by the company that created the model or — depending on OpenRouter’s choice — by the provider of the cloud in which that model runs, for example Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure or Amazon Web Services.
Each of our requests has a setting with which OpenRouter routes it only to providers that declare that they don’t train models on the content of requests. This is their declaration; we have no insight into their servers. The content doesn’t disappear immediately: a provider may keep it for the period set out in its policies to detect abuse — Google for up to 55 days. OpenRouter declares that it doesn’t train models on the content of requests itself, and that it doesn’t keep images, audio or video recordings longer than it takes to forward the request, except for abuse detection, security, billing and legal obligations. It keeps the text of requests in accordance with its privacy policy — for as long as its business and legal obligations require.
Search vectors (the meaning of a text written as numbers) are calculated by a model on our server. It receives texts: excerpts of speech, captions, scene descriptions and on-screen text, a short description of the Reel from the analysis (including the profile name, the beginning of the Reel and the call to action) and the phrases the assistant searches for in your data. When our model is temporarily unavailable, the same texts are processed as a fallback by deAPI (CoinAxe Ltd, Malta). deAPI also prepares an exact transcript of what is said in Reels (word for word) and then receives only the Reel’s audio track, without the picture. According to deAPI’s policies, the content of a request is not kept longer than it takes to execute it, and the file with the result — for no longer than a day.
We store the results — scene descriptions, on-screen text, transcripts, the Reel assessment and tips — in the account of the person who uses them. They are tips in the panel. We don’t make decisions about anyone based solely on automated processing that produce legal effects concerning them or similarly significantly affect them (Article 22 GDPR).
The legal basis is our contract with you (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR), and for data of people outside Reelumi — our legitimate interest (see “Data from Instagram”).
Emails
The service sends account holders one type of email: a link to set a new password. We send it when someone requests a new password on the login page and enters your account’s email address. The link works for an hour and only once, and it is sent by Resend (see “Who we share data with”). The legal basis is our contract with you (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR). A link to set your password may also be given to you outside the service by the controller or by the person who manages your account.
You read the weekly summary in the panel. If you enter an email address in the notification settings, we store it with the chosen day and time, but sending doesn’t work yet. Before we turn it on, we will update this policy.
When you write to hi@reelumi.ai, your message passes through Cloudflare and arrives in the controller’s Gmail inbox. We keep it so that we can reply and deal with your matter. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in corresponding with you (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). We don’t delete it after a fixed period: it stays in the inbox as long as it may be needed for further contact with you, for the matter it concerns, or to establish, exercise or defend legal claims related to it. We also keep a message with a request concerning your rights so that we can show how we handled it (Article 6(1)(c) GDPR in conjunction with Articles 5(2) and 12 GDPR). We will delete other messages at your request, unless they are needed to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
Who we share data with
We don’t sell data. We share it only with those who provide services to us, and only as far as they need it for their work:
- IT services — people and companies that, on our behalf, maintain the Reelumi server and the accounts of the services listed below. They have access to the data and only use it when this is needed to maintain the service, delete data or handle your request.
- OVH — the server with the database, backups and the server log. The server is located in the European Union.
- Cloudflare (Cloudflare, Inc., USA) — stores Reel videos and covers, the copy of the profile picture and files from the “Build a Reel from clips” feature in Cloudflare R2 storage in the European Union, and forwards messages sent to hi@reelumi.ai to the controller’s inbox.
- Resend (Plus Five Five, Inc., USA) — sends the email with the new-password link to the account’s email address.
- Apify (Apify Technologies s.r.o., Czech Republic) — downloads publicly available profile and Reel data from Instagram.
- OpenRouter (OpenRouter, Inc., USA) — forwards requests to AI model providers (today Google and OpenAI, after a model change for example Anthropic) or to the clouds in which these models run (for example Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services).
- deAPI (CoinAxe Ltd, Malta) — prepares transcripts of Reels and, as a fallback when our server doesn’t calculate them, search vectors.
In addition, messages sent to hi@reelumi.ai reach the controller’s inbox:
- Google (Gmail) — this is a regular Gmail account, not a service provided on our behalf: Google stores these messages under its own terms (Google’s privacy policy). In Europe, the service is provided by Google Ireland Limited.
If you log in with Google, you do so on Google’s page: Google then knows that you are logging in to Reelumi and processes this under its own terms (Google’s privacy policy; in Europe, the service is provided by Google Ireland Limited). From Google, we receive only the data described in the section “Reelumi account”.
If you connect an Instagram account, you log in on Meta’s page: Meta then knows that you are connecting an account to Reelumi and processes this under its own terms (Meta’s privacy policy; in Europe, the service is provided by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited). From Meta, we receive only the data described in the subsection “Connecting an Instagram account”.
The controller and members of the Reelumi team also see the data of the accounts they manage (see “Reelumi account”). We may disclose data to public authorities if the law requires it.
Transfers outside the European Economic Area
The server and the database are in the European Union. With the following recipients, data may end up outside the European Economic Area:
- Cloudflare, Google and Resend take part in the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework. The transfer is therefore based on a decision of the European Commission confirming an adequate level of protection (Article 45 GDPR). Videos, covers, the copy of the profile picture and files from the “Build a Reel from clips” feature in Cloudflare R2 are kept in the European Union, but Cloudflare may process messages forwarded to hi@reelumi.ai in the USA. Google may transfer messages from the Gmail inbox outside the EEA under the terms of its service. Resend always processes data in the USA, even when the email itself is sent by its server in Ireland; its data processing agreement also provides for standard contractual clauses approved by the Commission.
- OpenRouter processes requests in the USA. The transfer is based on standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission (Article 46 GDPR), which are part of OpenRouter’s data processing agreement, incorporated into its terms of service. A request reaches the model provider under the terms of OpenRouter’s agreement with that provider.
- Apify may transfer data to the USA and other countries. Its data processing agreement provides for standard contractual clauses approved by the Commission.
- deAPI is based in Malta, but according to its policies it may also process data in other countries, on distributed infrastructure. In these policies, it names as safeguards the Commission’s decisions on an adequate level of protection and standard contractual clauses where they apply.
At your request sent to hi@reelumi.ai, we will provide information about these safeguards and, for our data processing agreements with Apify, OpenRouter and Resend, also a copy of them.
How long we keep data
- The account and all its data — until the account is deleted or closed. After that, we delete them 30 days after the account is closed, at the latest the following night.
- Login data (email, name, password hash, Google account identifier) — together with the account, or, if you have access to another Reelumi account, together with the last of them. Reelumi team accounts — until deleted on request.
- Login session (IP address, browser name) — expires after 30 days without using the panel, and we delete its record on the first night after a day has passed since it expired.
- Link to set a password — works until it is used, for up to 7 days, and one sent by email after a request for a new password — for up to an hour. We delete an expired link the following night.
- Email with the new-password link — Resend keeps sent emails in its sending log for 30 days. If a mailbox permanently rejects an email from us or the recipient marks it as spam, Resend adds the address to our account’s block list so that nothing more is sent to it. That entry stays there with no time limit — we will remove it if you ask us to. Deleting the account does not remove the address from Resend’s sending log or block list.
- Reel videos (picture and sound) — we delete them 30 days after downloading, at the latest the following night. A Reel video from which we haven’t yet managed to extract a cover — after 37 days at the latest.
- Projects from the “Build a Reel from clips” feature (clips, working copies, description, speech transcript, the chat with the assistant about the Reel and finished Reels) — we delete them 30 days after the last change in the project, at the latest the following night. After you click “Delete project”, they disappear immediately, or, if that fails, at the latest the following night. When the account is deleted, they disappear together with the rest of the account data.
- Reels, covers, numbers, transcripts, analyses and advice — together with the profile: a tracked profile — 30 days after it is removed from the list, at the latest the following night; your profile, including the copy of its profile picture — together with the account.
- Instagram account connection (token and statistics) — until you disconnect it in the panel; we then delete them immediately. If Meta no longer accepts the token, we delete it sooner. When the account is deleted, they disappear together with the rest of the account data.
- Reels found under niche hashtags — we delete them 60 days after the search.
- An idea deleted in the Content planner — we delete it 30 days after deletion, at the latest the following night. The chat with the assistant about that idea stays until the account is deleted.
- Chats with the assistant, the Content planner, weekly summaries and their settings — until the account is deleted.
- Billing in Reelumi — until the account is deleted. Invoices and payment confirmations — in the controller’s accounting records for the period required by tax law.
- Cost register and task log — until the account is deleted. We delete tasks in the server queue 7 days after they are completed, and uncompleted ones — after 14 days.
- Materials in the knowledge base about Instagram (texts of statements and articles) — currently with no fixed period. We delete statements we haven’t reviewed after 180 days.
- List of objections (profile name and date of the objection) — for as long as the objection is in force.
- Server log — 15 days. The application’s technical log — no fixed number of days: until the size limit is reached (the oldest entries go first), usually weeks, in rare cases months. Entries from the application server also disappear when the application is updated.
- Correspondence — no fixed period: as long as it may be needed to contact you, for the matter it concerns or for legal claims related to it. We also keep requests concerning your rights to show how we handled them. We delete other messages at your request, unless they are needed for legal claims.
- Login cookie — 30 days from the last use of the panel, the Google login cookie — up to 5 minutes, the Instagram connection cookie — up to 30 minutes, and the language cookie — one year. Entries in browser storage — until you delete them.
- Database backups — made once a day on the same server. We keep the last 7, so deleted data disappears from them after the next 7 nightly backups, usually after a week. If we restore the database from a backup, we delete again the data that was deleted after the backup date. We don’t include videos, covers, the copy of the profile picture or files from the “Build a Reel from clips” feature in backups: they disappear from Cloudflare R2 the moment they are deleted. The description of the clips, the speech transcript and the chat from this feature are in the database, so they end up in backups and disappear from them like other deleted data.
Deletion after these periods is done by the server itself, in a nightly run. Data received by Apify, OpenRouter, the model providers and deAPI is deleted by them in accordance with their own policies.
Your rights
You have the right to:
- access your data and get a copy of it
- have your data corrected — you can change the channel profile in the panel, and we will correct the rest at your request
- have your data deleted — you can delete your account in the panel (see “Deleting and closing your account”), and for the rest, just ask us
- restrict the processing of your data
- receive the data you have given us (data portability), when we process it on the basis of a contract or consent — we will prepare it as a file in a common, machine-readable format
- withdraw your consent at any time, if we process data based on it — this does not affect the lawfulness of what we did before you withdrew it
Just write to hi@reelumi.ai, preferably from the address linked to your account — then we can easily confirm that it’s you. We reply without undue delay, within one month at the latest. If the matter is complex, this period may be extended by another two months — in that case we will let you know within the first month.
If you believe that we process your data unlawfully, you can lodge a complaint with the President of the Personal Data Protection Office (UODO), ul. Stawki 2, 00-193 Warsaw, Poland.
Right to object (Article 21 GDPR)
You can object at any time to processing that we base on our legitimate interest: the server and application logs, the session record and counting login attempts, the record of actions by the Reelumi team in the panel, data from public Instagram profiles, data of people in clips in the “Build a Reel from clips” feature, and correspondence. Write to hi@reelumi.ai. We will then stop processing that data, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests, or the data is needed to establish, exercise or defend legal claims. We describe the effect of an objection to data from Instagram in the section “Data from Instagram”.
Changes to this policy
When the way we process data changes, for example when a new provider or a new type of data is added, we will update this page.
