Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2 November 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Stonecast Financial LLC ("HypeAgent", "we", "us") collects, uses and shares personal data in HypeAgent: the web app at agent.hypeauditor.com, the HypeAgent MCP server at mcp.hypeauditor.com, the HypeAgent assistant on hypeauditor.com, and our websites, including hypeagent.io (together, the "Service").

HypeAgent is a brand of HypeAuditor. Both are operated by the same company under one privacy programme. The creator analytics shown in HypeAgent come from HypeAuditor's database, which is also described in the HypeAuditor Privacy Policy.

This policy is part of our Terms of Service. Words defined in the Terms have the same meaning here.

To run the connection, charge credits, prevent abuse and improve the tools Contract (Art. 6(1)(b)); legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f))
Usage and device data: IP address, browser, device, pages viewed, clicks, product events, referrer and campaign (UTM) parameters, and error reports To keep the Service working, find bugs and understand which features are used Legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f)); consent where the law requires it for cookies
Communications: support requests, and service and product emails we send you To help you and keep you informed about your account Contract (Art. 6(1)(b)); legitimate interest for product news (Art. 6(1)(f)). You can unsubscribe from product news at any time.

3.2 Visitors to our websites

When you visit our websites, we collect your IP address, browser and device details, the pages you view, the referring page and campaign (UTM) parameters. We use them to count visits and to see which channels bring people to HypeAgent. Our legal basis is our legitimate interest in understanding our audience (Art. 6(1)(f)), or your consent where the law requires it.

3.3 Creators

HypeAgent helps brands find creators for paid collaborations. It shows the creator analytics in HypeAuditor's database, built from information that creators publish on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X (Twitter) and Twitch:

  • Public profile: username, display name, profile photo, biography, language, country or city, profile link, and contact details published in the profile;
  • Content and metrics: posts, captions, thumbnails, likes, comments, views, mentions of brands and sponsored posts;
  • Estimates: engagement rate, audience quality, growth history, topics and interests, an estimated price per post, and aggregated estimates about the audience (age groups, gender, countries and interests). Audience estimates describe a creator's followers as a group, never individual followers.

HypeAgent also records whether a customer has added a creator to a list or campaign, posts that mention the customer's brand, and the outreach history between that customer and the creator (see section 3.4). A creator's email address is shown to a customer only when the customer asks for it.

Legal basis: our legitimate interest, and that of brands, in finding creators for commercial collaborations (Art. 6(1)(f)). The data is information creators make public to build an audience and attract partnerships. We use only professional, publicly available information, and we do not process special categories of data about individual creators.

Notice: we cannot contact every creator individually, so under Article 14(5)(b) GDPR this policy serves as our notice.

Removal: a creator can ask us to correct or delete their data, or object to our use of it, by writing to support@hypeauditor.com with a link to the profile. HypeAgent and HypeAuditor use the same database, so one request covers both. We act within 72 hours of verifying the request. Removing copies from every system and cache can take up to one month.

3.4 People who correspond with our customers

When a customer contacts you through HypeAgent, we process your email address, name, the content and dates of your messages, and the terms discussed, such as rates and deliverables. We do this for the customer. AI models help the customer by classifying your replies and drafting answers. To stop receiving messages, reply to the sender or contact the brand directly. You can also write to us and we will pass your request on.

4. Google user data and connected mailboxes

Connecting a mailbox is optional. You start it yourself, in Settings → Integrations.

What we ask Google for. When you connect Gmail, we ask Google for the following permissions:

  • gmail.send: to send the outreach messages you, or an agent working within your campaign settings, create, from your own address;
  • gmail.readonly: to read incoming messages so that we can find replies from creators;
  • userinfo.email and userinfo.profile: to identify the mailbox you connected.

Sign in with Google uses only your basic profile (name, email address and photo), not your mailbox.

What we read and store. When you connect a mailbox, we fetch incoming messages from the previous 30 days, up to 100 messages. After that, we check regularly for new incoming messages. For each message, we store the sender, recipients, subject, body, date, and Gmail message and thread IDs. We then check the sender's address against the creators in your campaigns and in HypeAuditor's creator data.

How we use it. Messages from a creator appear in your campaign inbox. AI models analyse them to classify the reply (for example interested, quoted a rate, or declined) and to draft your answer. Messages from other senders are not shown in HypeAgent and are not sent to AI providers. We never delete, label or change anything in your mailbox.

Who we share it with. We share Google user data only:

  • with the AI providers listed in section 5, to classify replies and draft answers for you;
  • with our hosting providers, to store it;
  • when the law requires it;
  • with your consent.

We do not sell Google user data, and we do not use it for advertising. Our staff do not read your messages except:

  • with your permission, for example when you ask for support with a specific thread;
  • when needed for security, such as investigating abuse;
  • to comply with the law;
  • in aggregated, anonymised form for internal operations.

No model training. We do not use Google user data to develop, improve or train generalised or non-personalised AI or machine learning models.

Security. Data travels over encrypted connections (TLS). Access tokens and mailbox credentials are encrypted at rest, and access is limited to the systems and staff who need it.

Retention and deletion.

  • Disconnecting the mailbox in Settings → Integrations deletes its stored access tokens at once. You can also revoke our access at any time in your Google Account.
  • Imported messages stay part of your workspace's campaign history until you delete your account or ask us to delete them at support@hypeauditor.com. We then delete them within 30 days.

Limited Use. HypeAgent's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs to any other app will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

Other mailboxes. If you connect a mailbox by IMAP and SMTP instead, we store its server settings and credentials encrypted, and we read and use your messages in the same way as described above.

5. AI processing

HypeAgent uses AI models from OpenAI, Anthropic and TypeSafe. We send them only what a feature needs, such as:

  • your prompts and brand details;
  • creator data;
  • creator emails matched to your campaigns.

These providers process data on our behalf under their API terms, which do not allow them to train their models on it. We do not use your workspace content or Google user data to train generalised AI models.

HypeAgent does not make decisions about anyone that produce legal or similarly significant effects solely by automated means (Article 22 GDPR). Its scores and suggestions help customers decide. The customer remains responsible for the decision.

AI clients you connect. When you use HypeAgent through an AI client such as Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor, our tools send their results to that client. The AI client and its provider then handle that data under their own terms and privacy policy, not ours.

6. Who we share data with

We do not sell personal data, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioural advertising. We share it only as described here.

  • Legal and safety: authorities or other parties, when the law requires it, or to protect our rights, our users or the public.

7. International transfers

Our databases are hosted in Germany. Technical support is provided from Armenia under the EU Standard Contractual Clauses. Some service providers above are based in the United States. Where data leaves the EEA or the UK for a country without an adequacy decision, we rely on the EU Standard Contractual Clauses (Art. 46(2)(c) GDPR) or, where the provider is certified, the EU–US Data Privacy Framework.

8. How long we keep data

  • Account and workspace data, including MCP connection logs and imported messages: while your account is open. After you ask us to delete your account, we delete it within 30 days, and it leaves our backups as they rotate.
  • Billing records: as long as tax and accounting law requires.
  • Mailbox access tokens: until you disconnect the mailbox (section 4).
  • Usage analytics and error reports: for a limited period, then deleted or anonymised.
  • Creator data: while it remains public and relevant. It is refreshed as profiles change, and removed on request (section 3.3).

9. Security

We protect personal data with technical and organisational measures. Data in transit is encrypted with TLS. Access tokens and mailbox credentials are encrypted at rest. Passwords are stored only as hashes. Our servers are hosted in secured data centres in Germany. Access is role-based and limited to those who need it, and our systems are monitored. If a personal data breach affects you, we will notify you and the competent authority as the law requires. No system is completely secure, so if you think your account has been compromised, write to support@hypeauditor.com at once.

10. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you can ask us to:

  • give you access to your personal data;
  • correct it;
  • delete it;
  • restrict how we use it;
  • send it to you or another service in a portable format.

You can also:

  • object to our use of it based on legitimate interest, and to direct marketing at any time;
  • withdraw any consent you have given;
  • complain to your data protection authority (list of EU authorities).

To use these rights, write to support@hypeauditor.com. We may need to confirm your identity first. We answer within one month, or within three months for complex requests, in which case we will tell you why. Customers can also change or delete much of their data directly in the app.

11. US state privacy rights

If you live in California or another US state with a consumer privacy law, this section applies to you as well.

What we collect:

  • identifiers, such as name, email address and IP address;
  • commercial information, such as your plan and purchases;
  • internet activity, such as how you use the Service;
  • professional information, such as public creator profiles;
  • inferences, such as audience estimates.

The sources and purposes are described in section 3.

Selling and sharing. We do not sell personal information. We do not share it for cross-context behavioural advertising. We do not use sensitive personal information to infer characteristics about you.

Your rights. You may ask to know what we collect and how we use it, to get a copy, to correct it and to delete it. We will not discriminate against you for using these rights. Send requests to support@hypeauditor.com. An authorised agent may send a request for you. We will verify the request and answer within 45 days.

12. Cookies

We use:

  • Strictly necessary cookies: to keep you signed in, protect forms, and let you sign in with your HypeAuditor account.
  • Analytics cookies and local storage: set by PostHog, Amplitude and Ripples, to count visits and see which pages and channels lead to sign-ups.

We do not use advertising cookies. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. The Service still works without analytics cookies.

13. Children

HypeAgent is a service for businesses and is not meant for anyone under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 16. If you believe a creator profile in HypeAgent belongs to a child, write to support@hypeauditor.com and we will remove it.

14. Changes to this policy

We will tell you about material changes by email or in the app before they take effect. The date at the top shows when this policy last changed.
