- Generating performance analytics reports based on TikTok Display API data;
- Managing and orchestrating media assets within the content pipeline;

4. TikTok API Data
AAG Creator Engine accesses TikTok data exclusively through TikTok's official APIs in accordance with TikTok's Developer Platform Terms. We adhere to all data usage restrictions, retention requirements, and data portability obligations established by TikTok.
Data obtained through TikTok's APIs is:

- Deleted upon user request or when no longer necessary for the authorized purpose;
- Subject to TikTok's Data Portability and Data Deletion requirements as specified in TikTok's Developer Platform policies.
5. Data Storage and Retention
We follow a minimal data retention approach:
- Video Content: Processed in-transit only. Video files are transmitted directly to TikTok's Content Posting API and are never permanently stored on our servers;
- Analytics Data: Performance metrics are cached for up to 90 days to support reporting functionality, then automatically purged;
- OAuth Tokens: Encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption and refreshed according to TikTok's token lifecycle requirements;
- Account Data: Retained for the duration of your active account and deleted within 30 days of account closure or access revocation.
6. Data Sharing
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. Data is shared only in the following limited circumstances:
- TikTok Platform: Content and associated metadata are transmitted to TikTok through their API as required for the Service's core functionality;
- Legal Compliance: When required by law, court order, or governmental regulation;
- Service Providers: With carefully vetted infrastructure providers (hosting, security monitoring) who are contractually bound to maintain confidentiality and comply with data protection requirements.
7. Security Measures
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data:
- TLS 1.3 encryption for all data in transit;
- AES-256 encryption for OAuth tokens and sensitive data at rest;
- Regular security audits and penetration testing;
- Role-based access controls with principle of least privilege;
- Automated threat detection and incident response procedures;
- API key rotation and secure credential management.
