Service data

As this service is a social share facilitator it hosts the content YOUR users send to it.

When one of your users uses our service to share something coming from your website or app we store his IP, the content to share, the date at which the content was shared.

The IP is only stored for a maximum of 90 days.

This IP along with the date of publication of the content is a legal security to prevent abuses.

We do not inspect the shared content but as it can be shared and discovered we insist that you MUST prevent your users from sharing private or illegal information, see 'Responsibility of shared data'.

Responsibility of shared data

You are responsible for the content your application and users send to the service using your API keys.

In case of legal complaints we will facilitate your private data and the log of shared content with available users IPs to justice.

We will immediately destroy offending contents.

Don't do stupid things, don't share private data about your users.

Problem solving

  • you found an offending content shared via our service
  • you found some suspicious content shared via our service

Please note that content shared on social networks may be hard to remove even if we delete it on popo.st you may have to take more actions on facebook, twitter, etc.
