Your data

How we handle your data

Updated October 2026

When you check an ad, we keep the text and the result for up to 12 months to improve the checker. We don't store your images or your IP address, and we delete your data whenever you ask.

What we store, why, and for how long

What we don't do

Who processes it

A few companies run parts of the service for us. They handle your data only to provide that service.

How to delete your data

  1. Email ahmed@adaccountshield.com with the subject “Delete my data”.
  2. Send it from the email address you used, or tell us which address it was.
  3. We delete your email, your waitlist entry and every check linked to that email within 30 days, and reply to confirm.

Checks you ran without adding an email aren't linked to you (we only keep a scrambled IP), so we can't find them to delete early. They're deleted automatically after 12 months.

Connecting your Meta ad accounts (coming soon)

When account alerts launch, you'll be able to connect your ad accounts through Meta's official Marketing API. Before you connect, we'll show each permission, what it's used for and whether it reads or changes anything. We'll use data from Meta only to provide the features you turn on, you'll be able to disconnect at any time, and the deletion steps above will cover that data too.
