Data Deletion

Last updated: May 18, 2026

What data we store

When you connect your Instagram account and use Carougen, we store the following data associated with your account:

Instagram username and user ID
Encrypted Instagram access token
Cached post captions and engagement data (likes, comments)
Brand analysis profiles — visual style, voice, and carousel style
Generated carousel drafts — copy, image prompts, and slide metadata
Generated slide images, stored in Vercel Blob storage
Session data

How to request deletion

To request deletion of all your data, email us at:

Include “Data Deletion Request” in the subject line. We will delete all data associated with your account within 30 days and confirm by reply.

In compliance with Meta's Platform Terms, you may also submit a data deletion request directly through Facebook/Instagram. We will process these requests within 30 days.

What gets deleted

Upon receiving a deletion request, we will permanently remove:

Your Instagram access token
Cached post captions and engagement data
All brand analysis profiles (visual, voice, and carousel style)
All generated carousel drafts and slide copy
All generated slide images from Vercel Blob storage
Your session data and account record

Deletion is permanent and cannot be undone. Any carousel content you have already published to Instagram will remain on Instagram — Carougen does not have the ability to remove published posts.

Revoking Instagram access

You can also revoke Carougen's access to your Instagram account directly from Instagram at any time:

Open the Instagram app
Go to Settings → Account → Apps and Websites
Find “Carougen” and tap Remove

If you revoke access via Instagram Settings, your access token is deleted immediately. Your remaining data (post cache, brand analysis, generated carousels) will be automatically deleted within 30 days, or immediately upon request.

Revoking access stops future API calls but does not automatically delete data already stored by Carougen. Email us to request full deletion.
