Privacy Policy

Adflank is a competitor-intelligence service for marketing teams. The data controller for the personal data described here is:

For anything in this policy, email hello@adflank.com with the subject line “Privacy”.

Flanker answers questions about your competitors. To do that, each message you send is processed by Google's Gemini models through the Gemini API, from a server we run on Google Cloud, together with the context the answer needs: your first name and company, your plan, the list of competitors you track, summaries of their ads, a sample of their ad copy, and the earlier messages in the same conversation. Conversations are stored for 90 days from when they are first stored, so you can return to them. A small number may be reviewed by the Adflank team to improve Flanker's answers, and every access through our admin tools is logged. You can turn storage off, or delete your stored conversations, in Settings. Adflank itself does not use your conversations to train AI models. Google receives your messages and that context through the Gemini API and handles them under the Gemini API terms that apply to our account, which set out whether and how Google may keep or use them. AI answers can be wrong; treat them as analysis to check, not as fact.

We do not sell personal data. We share it with the providers below, each of which processes it on our instructions or under its own terms as noted, and with authorities where the law requires.

We may also disclose data to a buyer or successor if the business is sold or merged, under the same commitments as this policy, and to professional advisers under confidentiality.

Some providers above process data in the United States. Where they do, transfers rely on the European Commission’s adequacy decision for the EU-US Data Privacy Framework for providers certified under it, or on the Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses with supplementary measures. You can ask us for details of the safeguard that applies to a given provider.

Data is stored on Google Cloud infrastructure and encrypted in transit and at rest. Access to the database is restricted by per-user security rules, so an account can read only its own data. Sign-in uses one-time codes rather than stored passwords. Only the people who need access to operate the service have it. No system is perfectly secure; if we learn of a breach affecting your data we will tell you and the supervisory authority as the law requires.

Under the GDPR you can ask us to:

• tell you what personal data we hold about you and give you a copy (access and portability);
• correct anything that is wrong;
• delete your data, subject to the retention we must keep by law (there is no delete button in the app: email us and we do it within 30 days);
• restrict or object to processing based on our legitimate interests;
• withdraw consent at any time where consent is the basis, without affecting what was done before.

Email hello@adflank.com from the address on your account. We answer within one month. You can also complain to the State Data Protection Inspectorate of the Republic of Lithuania (VDAI), or to the authority in the EU country where you live or work.

If you use Adflank as an agency and create profiles for your clients, you decide what client information to enter and are the controller for it; we process it on your behalf under the Terms of Service, which include our data-processing commitments. Enter only what you have the right to share.

What we store in your browser, what is essential, and what needs your consent is set out in the Cookie Policy. You can change your choice at any time using the “Cookie settings” link in the footer.

Adflank is a business tool for people aged 18 or over. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone younger; if you believe we have, tell us and we will delete it.

When this policy changes we update the effective date at the top. For changes that affect your rights or how we use your data, we will also email account holders before the change applies.
