Creator Sense AI
Sydney, New South Wales, Australia
Email: privacy@creatorsenseai.com

As the Data Controller, Creator Sense AI is responsible for all personal data and Platform Data shared by Meta and other platform providers through the permissions you authorise. We determine how and why your data is processed, and we are accountable for ensuring it is handled in accordance with applicable data protection laws and platform policies.

  • With Service Providers: Cloud hosting, payment processing, and email services that help us operate (bound by confidentiality agreements)
  • When Required by Law: In response to valid legal requests
  • With Your Consent: Only if you explicitly authorize sharing

7.2 Service Providers

We work with the following third-party service providers who may process Platform Data on our behalf. Each is bound by confidentiality agreements and data processing terms:

Provider Category of Services Data Processed
Railway Cloud hosting & infrastructure All application data (hosted environment)

7.3 Law Enforcement and Government Requests

CreatorSense AI is committed to protecting your privacy, including in the context of requests from public authorities and law enforcement agencies. Our approach is as follows:

  • Legal Review: Every request from a public authority or law enforcement agency is reviewed by responsible personnel to determine its legality and scope before any data is disclosed. We will not comply with requests that we believe to be unlawful, overbroad, or improperly issued.
  • Challenging Unlawful Requests: We will challenge requests that we consider to be unlawful, lack proper authorisation, or exceed the scope permitted by applicable law. We reserve the right to seek legal counsel and, where appropriate, seek judicial review of such requests.
  • Data Minimisation: In any case where we are legally required to disclose user data to a public authority, we will limit disclosure to the minimum information strictly necessary to satisfy the request. We do not provide bulk access to user data.
  • Documentation: All requests from public authorities, including the nature of the request, the legal basis cited, our response, and the legal reasoning applied, are documented internally in accordance with our compliance and audit obligations.
  • User Notification: Where permitted by law, we will endeavour to notify affected users of any valid legal request before disclosing their data, so they have the opportunity to seek their own legal remedies.
  • National Security: As of the date of this policy, CreatorSense AI has not received any national security requests (e.g., national security letters or FISA orders) for user data, and we have not provided user data in response to such requests.
