Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to Unfollowers.lol (“we,” “our,” or “us”). Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our website and mobile app services.

Our service allows users to analyze Instagram follower/unfollower data using Instagram's data export files. Processing is performed locally in your browser or on your mobile device, and we are committed to minimizing data collection and protecting your privacy.

By using our service, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

2. Data Controller and Contact

For GDPR purposes, the operator of Unfollowers.lol acts as the data controller for any personal data processed through this website and mobile app.

If you have privacy-related questions or want to exercise your data protection rights, contact us at: unfollowerslol@gmail.com.

3. Information We Do Not Collect

We are designed with privacy in mind. Specifically:

• We do not require account registration
• We do not collect or store your Instagram login credentials
• We do not upload your Instagram data to our servers

Your uploaded files remain on your device and are not transmitted to us.

4. Information Processed Locally

When you use our service, you may upload files obtained from Instagram's data export feature. These files may contain:

• Follower and following lists
• Account usernames (personal data)
• Timestamps or related metadata

This data is:

• Processed locally on your device (in your browser or in the mobile app)
• Used only to generate results (for example, identifying unfollowers)
• Never sent to our servers

5. Use of Local Storage and On-Device Storage

We use local, on-device storage to improve functionality across web and mobile usage.

This may include:

• Storing uploaded Instagram data locally on your browser or device for persistence
• Saving processed results (for example, unfollower lists)
• Storing user preferences
• Temporarily reading user-selected files to support import and backup flows in the mobile app

Legal basis and consent

• Storage that is strictly necessary for the core functionality of the tool (for example, processing files during active use) does not require consent
• Any storage that is not strictly necessary will only be used with your consent, where required by applicable law

All data stored locally:

• Remains on your device
• Is not accessible to us
• Can be deleted at any time from the app, your device settings, or browser settings

6. Hosting and Infrastructure

Our website is hosted on Vercel, which acts as a data processor on our behalf.

Vercel may process limited technical data such as:

• IP address
• Browser type
• Request logs

This processing is necessary for security, performance, and delivery of the website.

Core mobile app analysis features are designed to run locally on your device and do not require uploading your Instagram export contents to our servers.

We rely on Vercel under a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) to ensure GDPR compliance.

7. International Data Transfers

Our infrastructure providers may process limited technical data in countries outside the European Economic Area.

Where required, we rely on appropriate GDPR safeguards for international transfers, such as adequacy decisions and Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs).

8. Data Retention

Instagram data you import is processed locally in your browser and remains under your control on your device.

Any local browser storage persists until you delete it from the app or your browser settings.

Limited server-side technical logs may be retained by our hosting provider for security and operational purposes.

9. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Current Use

We use cookies and similar technologies on the website for strictly necessary functionality, consent management, analytics, and advertising (Google AdSense).

These technologies may process limited technical information such as:

• Page paths and navigation events
• Referrer and high-level browser/device information
• Approximate location and performance-related metrics
• Advertising interaction and ad-delivery signals

This analytics data does not include the Instagram export file contents you import for local analysis.

The mobile app does not rely on browser cookies. Where mobile operating system identifiers or device-level signals are used by platform services, they are governed by platform-level controls and applicable laws.

Google AdSense

We use Google AdSense to display ads on our website. Google and its partners may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.

• Personalized ads are shown only where permitted and based on your consent choices
• You can change your cookie preferences any time through our cookie preferences control
• You can also manage ad personalization in Google Ad Settings

Learn more in Google's policies: How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.

Consent and Controls

• We apply consent requirements where required by applicable law before enabling non-essential cookies
• You can open the cookie preferences center at any time to withdraw or update consent
• Withdrawing consent may disable analytics and personalized advertising features

10. Data Security

Because all sensitive processing occurs locally:

• Your Instagram data does not leave your device
• There is no centralized storage of your personal data

However, you are responsible for maintaining the security of your device and browser.

11. Third-Party Services

We rely on third-party providers for website operations, analytics, advertising, and mobile app infrastructure tooling.

We do not share your Instagram data with any third parties.

• Vercel (hosting and infrastructure)
• Vercel Analytics (aggregate website analytics)
• Google AdSense (ad delivery and measurement)
• Expo/EAS (mobile app build and deployment infrastructure)

If additional third-party services are introduced, this policy will be updated.

12. Children's Privacy

This service is not intended for individuals under the age of 13 (or the applicable minimum age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.

13. Your Rights Under GDPR

Legal Basis for Processing

We process personal data based on:

• Your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR) - you voluntarily upload your Instagram data and choose to analyze it using our tool
• Our legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR) for strictly necessary website security and delivery, including limited technical logging by our hosting provider

You may stop using the service at any time, which will stop all processing.

If you are located in the European Economic Area, you have the right to:

• Access your personal data
• Request correction or deletion
• Restrict or object to processing
• Withdraw consent at any time

Since we do not store your data on our servers, most of these rights are fulfilled by design.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Updates will be reflected by revising the “Last updated” date above.
