Privacy Policy

Last Updated: March 25, 2025

Introduction

Please take a moment to read the full terms below. To make things easier, here are a few key points to help you understand our privacy policy and how we handle data:

  • We automate processes, but the data you see on CounterTok is similar to visiting a public social media profile and noting follower counts or similar metrics. We do not store, display, or share private information unless explicitly stated, requested, and permission is granted.
  • We see our role as akin to journalists. Our goal is to be a trusted source of information, which means we don’t remove or alter data unless it’s inaccurate. Transparency is key to maintaining our credibility.
  • Like most websites, we use cookies. These aren’t harmful—they help you stay logged in and enhance your browsing experience.
  • Our services are mostly free, but servers and development teams cost money. To cover these expenses, we monetize the site through ads.
  • Analytics help us understand how you use CounterTok, which areas are most popular, and how we can improve. Tools like Google Analytics are essential for this process.

The Privacy Policy and What It Means to You

CounterTok’s Privacy Policy (“Policy”) outlines how we collect, use, and share information from visitors to our website, CounterTok.com (the Site”), and the services (Services”) available through it.

CounterTok reserves the right to update this Policy at any time. If we make significant changes, we’ll post a notice on our website. By continuing to use our Site or Services, you agree to the updated terms. If you disagree with any changes, please stop using CounterTok’s website, uninstall our apps, and refrain from using our data.

Cookies

CounterTok uses cookies to enhance your online experience. A cookie is a text file placed on your device by a web server. Cookies are unique to you and can only be read by the domain that issued them. They help personalize your experience and cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses.

Third-Party Data

We gather public information from third-party platforms, including TikTok. This data is publicly available, and if you don’t want it displayed on CounterTok, you’ll need to adjust your privacy settings on TikTok. CounterTok will not remove public information from its website without a legally binding order to do so.

Information We Collect

We use technology like cookies and third-party tracking tools to collect data about your use of our Site and Services. This includes your domain name, device ID, operating system, browser type, pages visited, links clicked, IP address, session duration, and the referring URL that brought you to our Site.

How We Share Information

We may share your information in the following circumstances:

  • With third-party vendors, service providers, contractors, or agents who perform functions on our behalf.
  • To comply with legal obligations, court orders, or other legal processes.
  • To investigate or prevent illegal activities, fraud, threats to safety, violations of our Terms of Use or this Policy, or as evidence in litigation.
  • Aggregate user data may be shared with third parties for marketing, advertising, research, or similar purposes.

Third-Party Links

Our Site may include links to third-party websites. These sites have their own privacy policies, and CounterTok is not responsible for their practices.

Data Sources

To keep our statistical data up to date, CounterTok uses third-party API services, including TikTok. Unless specific access is requested (e.g., to verify your identity), we only collect publicly available data.

Third-Party Policies

Our Site uses products and services like Google Analytics and Google AdSense, so Google’s Privacy Policies apply alongside ours.
