Privacy Policy
Effective date: September 30, 2026
QTS Lead Radar ("the app", "we") is operated by Artur Khasbiev. This policy explains what data the app collects when you connect your Threads account, why, and how you can have it deleted.
What the app does
QTS Lead Radar searches recent public Threads posts for a fixed list of software-development-related keywords (for example "looking for a developer" or "need a Telegram bot"). Matching public posts are shown on a private dashboard and sent as a notification to the operator. The operator reads each match and may manually publish a reply from the dashboard. The app never posts, replies, likes, or follows automatically.
Data we collect
When you log in with Threads (OAuth), we receive and store:
- Your Threads user ID and username, to identify which account is connected.
- Your access token, stored encrypted, used only to call the Threads API on your behalf.
When a keyword search matches a public post, we store:
- The post ID, text, author username, timestamp, and permalink.
We do not collect passwords, private messages, or any data from accounts other than what Threads' public API returns for public content.
Why we collect this
This data is used solely to operate the features you use: logging in, running the keyword search you configured, showing you the results, and avoiding duplicate notifications for posts you've already seen.
How long we keep it
- Matched post records are automatically deleted after 30 days.
- Account and token data is kept only while your Threads account remains connected, and is deleted immediately when you disconnect the app or request deletion.
Sharing with third parties
We do not sell your data, share it with third parties for their own purposes, or use it for advertising or profiling. A small number of processors help operate the app:
- An LLM API provider (OpenRouter) — receives the text of a matched public post to classify its relevance. Post text is sent for this single purpose and is not used by that provider to train models on our behalf.
- Telegram — used only to deliver the operator's own private notifications; no user data is published or shared through Telegram.
Your rights
You can:
- Disconnect the app at any time from your Threads account's connected-apps settings, which immediately revokes our access.
- Request a copy or deletion of any data we hold about you by emailing radar@qts.dev, or via our Data Deletion page.
Children
This app is not directed at children and is not intended for use by anyone under the minimum age required to use Threads.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted here with a new effective date.
