Privacy Policy

How Threads Viewer handles data when you use the service.

Last updated: 2026-07-18

Overview

Threads Viewer lets visitors view information from public Threads profiles without creating an account or logging in. This policy describes the limited data processed to operate and improve the service.

Information We Collect

We may process:

  • Search input — The public Threads username or profile URL you submit.
  • Public profile data — Publicly available profile details and recent public posts returned by our data provider.
  • Technical data — IP address, request time, response status, device category, and limited diagnostic logs used for security, rate limiting, reliability, and aggregate traffic measurement.
  • Preferences — Language and theme choices stored in your browser when needed.

Threads Viewer does not require a visitor account and does not collect payment information for this free MVP. Analytics events are designed not to include full usernames, profile biographies, post text, or complete profile URLs.

How We Use Information

We use this limited data to:

  • Return the requested public profile and recent public posts.
  • Cache results, prevent abuse, and enforce query limits.
  • Diagnose errors and measure aggregate product performance.
  • Maintain the security and reliability of the service.

Service Providers

We do not sell personal information. We use service providers to run the product, including hosting, database, public-profile data, and optional analytics providers. They process data only as needed to provide those services and under their own applicable privacy terms. Public Threads data originates from third-party sources and remains subject to the rights of its original owners.

We may also disclose information when required by law or when reasonably necessary to protect the service, visitors, or others.

Retention and Security

Profile results may be cached for a limited period to improve speed and reduce repeated upstream requests. Security and diagnostic records are retained only as long as reasonably needed for operations, abuse prevention, or legal obligations. We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards, but no online service can guarantee absolute security.

Your Choices

You can stop using the service at any time, clear browser-stored preferences, and use browser controls to limit optional analytics or cookies. Where applicable, you may contact us to ask about access, correction, or deletion of personal data associated with your use of the service.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy as the product changes. The current revision date is shown above.
