PocketPins is operated by buntikki Technologies Private Limited (“PocketPins”, “we”, “us” or “our”). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have when you use the PocketPins mobile application, website and related services (collectively, the “Service”).
By using PocketPins, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
1. Information We Collect

2. How We Use Your Information
We use information we collect to:
- provide and operate PocketPins

3. AI and Automated Processing
PocketPins may use artificial intelligence and other automated systems to process content you save.
For example, these systems may help us:
- identify what a saved link is about
- extract names, places, categories or other metadata
- generate descriptions or summaries
- organise saved content; and
- improve search and discovery
To provide these features, certain information may be processed by third-party technology providers acting on our behalf.
We aim to share only the information reasonably necessary to provide the relevant functionality. Automated outputs may not always be accurate, and you should independently verify information where accuracy is important.
4. How We Share Information
We do not sell your personal information.
We may share information with service providers that help us operate PocketPins, including providers of:
- cloud hosting and infrastructure
- authentication
- analytics
- artificial intelligence and machine learning services
- customer support
- communications
- security and fraud prevention; and
- payment processing, if paid features are introduced
These providers may process information only to the extent required to provide their services to us, subject to their applicable contractual and legal obligations.
We may also disclose information if required to:
- comply with applicable law or legal process
- protect the rights, safety or security of PocketPins, our users or others
- investigate fraud, abuse or security incidents; or
- facilitate a merger, acquisition, restructuring or sale of all or part of our business
5. Third-Party Platforms and Links
PocketPins allows you to save or interact with content originating from third-party services, such as social media platforms and websites.
Those services operate independently from PocketPins and have their own privacy policies and practices. We are not responsible for how third-party platforms collect, use or handle your information.
6. Data Retention
We retain your information for as long as reasonably necessary to:
- provide the Service
- maintain your account
- comply with legal requirements
- resolve disputes; and
- enforce our agreements
If you delete your account, we will take reasonable steps to delete or anonymise personal information associated with it, subject to legal, security and technical retention requirements.
Some information may remain temporarily in backups or system logs before being deleted through our normal retention processes.
7. Data Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect your information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse or alteration.
However, no online service or method of electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You are also responsible for keeping your account credentials secure.
8. Your Choices and Rights
Depending on applicable law, you may have the right to:
- access personal information we hold about you
- correct inaccurate information
- request deletion of your information
- withdraw consent where processing is based on consent; and

We may need to verify your identity before completing certain requests.
9. International Data Processing
PocketPins may use service providers located in countries other than the country where you live.
As a result, your information may be processed or stored in other jurisdictions. Where required, we take reasonable steps to ensure that such transfers are handled in accordance with applicable law.

PocketPins is not intended for children under the age of 13.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn that such information has been collected, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
