Effective Date: April 30, 2026 · Last Updated: April 30, 2026
Reelmee ("we," "us," "our") operates the website reelmee.app and the Reelmee platform (the "Service").

1. Information We Collect
1.1 Account Information
When you create an account, we collect:
- Email address
- Name (if provided)
- Password (hashed, never stored in plain text)
1.2 Face and Voice Data
When you use our cloning feature, we collect:
- A video recording of your face and voice (uploaded by you)

We use the minimum scopes required for publishing + reading your own post metrics. We do not access your direct messages, your followers list (other than aggregate counts where the API provides them as part of post metrics), or any data unrelated to publishing or analytics.
Per-platform OAuth scopes we request:

| X (Twitter) | tweet.read, tweet.write, users.read, offline.access |
| Facebook (via Meta) | Same as Instagram (shares the Meta App) |
w_member_social, r_liteprofile |
1.5 Usage Data
- Pages visited, features used, and actions taken within the Service
- Device type, browser, operating system
- IP address (used for security and fraud prevention)
- Timestamps of activity
1.6 Payment Information
Payments are processed by our third-party payment provider (Dodo Payments), which acts as our merchant of record and handles tax collection and remittance globally. We do not store your credit card number, bank account details, or other payment credentials. We receive only:

- Plan type (Starter, Pro, Max)
- Credit pack purchase history
- Per-call credit usage records (which features you used)

- Captions automatically include an “#AIgenerated” hashtag where relevant
- TikTok publishes set the platform's
is_aigcAI-generated content flag - Video descriptions on YouTube include the AI-generated label per YouTube's synthetic-content policy
This is required by every platform's 2024+ AI content rules and is non-optional.
