Decision guide

Controls for privacy-aware social monitoring

01

Public scope by default

Target unauthenticated public organization, campaign, or content pages rather than private individual data.

02

Field minimization

Collect only fields needed for the stated monitoring purpose and avoid storing unrelated identifiers.

03

Session separation

Do not reuse cookies or account state between unrelated brands, markets, or research jobs.

04

Evidence without over-retention

Keep a redacted URL, timestamp, public marker, and small artifact rather than full account histories.

05

Bounded cadence

Schedule checks according to business need and target policy; stop on explicit denial or repeated challenges.

06

Human review

Review sensitive classifications, sentiment conclusions, and identity-related data before downstream use.

Social media proxy FAQ

Can this collect private profiles or messages?+

The default workflow should not. Private data or authenticated access requires explicit authorization, platform review, privacy controls, and a separate retention policy.

Does changing location reproduce every user's feed?+

No. Feeds can depend on account, history, experiments, language, time, and personalization. The result is one controlled public observation.

How should personal data be handled?+

Minimize fields, avoid sensitive identifiers, define retention and access, and prefer aggregated or organization-level public data where possible.

Can proxy rotation prevent every block?+

No. Behavior, account state, target policy, protocol, and request volume also matter. Classify responses and stop uncontrolled retries.
