01Owner and Data Controller
Pulsense Intelligent Solutions Private Limited, IN.
Contact email: hello@growero.io
Address: 4, RH 53, Saregama CHS, MIDC II, Dombivli East, Thane 421203, India
02Types of Data Collected
The types of personal data that Growero collects, by itself or through third parties, include:
- Tracker
- Usage Data
- Email address
- First name
- Last name
- Phone number
- Payment information
- Data communicated during use of the service
- Data from Facebook, Instagram and Threads accounts you connect (see below)
Users provide some data directly. Usage information is collected automatically when using Growero. Unless specified otherwise, most of the data requested by Growero is mandatory for service provision. Failure to provide this data may make it impossible for Growero to provide its services.
03Data From Facebook, Instagram and Threads
Growero lets you connect Facebook Pages, Instagram professional accounts and Threads profiles. You sign in through Meta, see the permissions we ask for, and choose which Pages and accounts Growero may use. Meta then shares the following with us:
- Your Meta profile name and ID, and the name, ID and profile picture of each Page, Instagram account and Threads profile you chose
- The business portfolios those Pages belong to, so we can find Pages you manage through Meta Business Suite
- Access tokens that let Growero act for those accounts, only within the permissions you granted
- Posts on those accounts and how they perform: reach, impressions, likes, comments, shares and follower counts
- Comments on your Facebook Page posts, shown with that post's results
How we use it. Only to provide Growero to you: to show the Pages and accounts you connected so you can choose where a post goes, to publish and schedule the posts you create, and to show analytics for your own accounts.
What we never do. We do not sell this data, use it for advertising, or use it to build profiles of people. We share it only with the service providers that host and run Growero for us, such as Microsoft Azure, and only so they can do that.
How long we keep it, and how to delete it. We keep it while the account stays connected to Growero. When you remove Growero in your Facebook or Threads settings, Meta tells us and we delete your access tokens. If you also ask Meta to send us a deletion request, we delete the analytics we collected as well and give you a confirmation code. You can also email us. Step-by-step instructions are on our Data Deletion page.
