This Privacy Policy explains how QuickDM (“QuickDM”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, stores, processes, and protects personal information when you access or use our website, software, and related services (collectively, the “Service”). This document is intended to provide transparency regarding our practices and to inform you of your rights under applicable privacy and data protection laws, including GDPR.
By accessing, registering for, or using the Service, you agree to the collection and processing of personal information as described herein. If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, you should refrain from using the Service.
Identity of the Data Controller
QuickDM, located in Kandivali West, Mumbai, India, acts as the data controller with respect to personal information processed in connection with the Service. We are responsible for ensuring that your personal information is handled in compliance with applicable laws.
Scope and Application
This Privacy Policy applies to all personal information collected through the Service, whether provided directly by users, received via official third-party integrations (such as Instagram APIs), or generated during use of the Service.
This Privacy Policy does not cover information collected by third-party websites, applications, or services linked from or integrated with the Service, which are governed by their own privacy policies.
Categories of Personal Information Collected
We collect personal information strictly necessary to provide and secure the Service. This may include:
- Contact information: full name, email address, phone number.
- Account information: login credentials (stored securely using industry-standard cryptographic hashing), authentication tokens.
- Information obtained from social media APIs (Instagram, Facebook) limited to the permissions granted by the user through official OAuth authorization flows.
QuickDM does not store social media account passwords, private messages, conversation histories, or media files. All such data is accessed temporarily via official APIs for operational purposes and is not stored on our servers.
Purposes and Legal Bases for Processing
Personal information is processed for the following purposes:
- Creating and managing user accounts.
- Authenticating and securing user access.
- Maintaining operational integrity and preventing abuse.
- Communicating critical service-related updates, including security and verification emails.
- Facilitating optional future features such as paid plans or additional platform integrations.
Processing is based on your consent when required by law, or otherwise on our legitimate interest in providing, maintaining, and securing the Service, or the performance of a contract with you. Legitimate interests are balanced against your rights and freedoms.
Technical and Operational Processing
Authentication and session management use encrypted tokens containing only internal identifiers. Tokens do not include sensitive personal information and automatically expire after a short period. No behavioral tracking, profiling, or monitoring of users occurs beyond what is strictly necessary for security and operational purposes.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
QuickDM uses strictly necessary cookies to operate the Service (e.g., session management, security, and CSRF protection). We do not use advertising, retargeting, or behavioral analytics cookies. For details, see our Cookies Policy.

Personal information is not sold, rented, or disclosed for marketing purposes. Information may be shared only when necessary to operate the Service, comply with legal obligations, or protect the rights, property, or safety of QuickDM, our users, or others.
International Data Transfers
Personal information may be processed in countries outside your residence. In such cases, we implement reasonable safeguards in accordance with applicable law to protect your data.
Data Retention
We retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy or as required by law. Data no longer needed is securely deleted.
Your Rights and Choices
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to access, correct, update, restrict, object to, or request deletion of your personal information. Requests can be submitted via our contact email or contact page.
Information Security
QuickDM implements administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, misuse, or disclosure. While we strive for maximum security, no system is entirely immune to risks.
