At CuriousAngle, accessible via our official Instagram profile, we prioritize the privacy of our followers and visitors. This policy explains how we handle information within the Instagram ecosystem.
Because this account is hosted on Instagram, your data is primarily governed by the Meta Privacy Policy.
Consent
By following our profile, interacting with our Stories, Reels, or posts, or sending us a Direct Message (DM), you consent to this Privacy Policy and agree to its terms.
Information We Access & How We Use It
We do not own the platform, but we interact with your data in these ways:
- Profile Interaction: When you “Follow,” “Like,” or “Save” our content, your username and profile visibility to us are determined by your own privacy settings.
- Direct Messages (DMs): We use the information provided in DMs to answer questions, provide support, and engage with our community.
- Instagram Insights: As a professional/creator account, we receive aggregate data from Instagram. This includes “Reach,” “Impressions,” and follower demographics (e.g., top cities or age ranges). This data is anonymized and does not identify you personally.
- Stories & Reels: If you view our Stories or interact with stickers (polls, questions, sliders), we can see your specific response and username.
Joint Responsibility with Meta
For “Insights” data, CuriousAngle and Meta Platforms, Inc. act as Joint Controllers. While we use this data to improve our content strategy, Meta is responsible for the technical processing and security of that data.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Instagram uses cookies, pixels, and “App Settings” to track user activity.
- CuriousAngle does not deploy its own cookies through Instagram.
- Tracking for advertising purposes is managed by Meta. You can adjust your preferences in the “Ad Topics” section of your Instagram settings.
Third-Party Links
Our “Link in Bio” or links shared in Stories may lead to external websites (including our blog, CuriousAngle.in). Once you leave the Instagram app, our Instagram privacy policy no longer applies, and you should consult the policy of the destination website.
Your Rights (GDPR / CCPA)
You have control over the data you share with us on Instagram:
- Deletion: You can “Unfollow” us, “Restrict” our account, or delete your comments/DMs at any time.
- Access: You can request a download of your Instagram data via the “Your Activity” section in your app settings.
- Opt-Out: You can manage how your interactions with our account influence the ads you see by visiting Settings > Account Center > Ad Preferences.
Children’s Information
Instagram requires users to be at least 13 years old. CuriousAngle does not knowingly collect personal data from children. If we become aware that a child under 13 has interacted with our account or provided personal info via DM, we will take immediate steps to delete that communication.
Scope of Policy
This policy applies exclusively to the CuriousAngle Instagram presence. It does not apply to offline data collection or interactions on other social platforms.
