Privacy Policy

Overview

What This Is

Protagonist Ink is a narrative strategy and brand consultancy operated by Patrick Kirkland. This privacy policy covers the tools and applications we operate internally — including our business dashboard and LinkedIn integration.

These tools are primarily used by Protagonist Ink operators for internal business purposes. We are not a consumer product. We do not sell your data. We do not run ads. This policy exists to be honest about what we collect and why.

LinkedIn Integration

Data We Collect via LinkedIn

When LinkedIn OAuth is connected to our internal dashboard, we may access and store the following:

• Basic profile information (name, profile photo, headline, LinkedIn URL)
• Content you’ve published on LinkedIn (posts, articles, engagement data)
• Analytics associated with your LinkedIn presence (impressions, engagement rates, follower data)
• Connection and audience data as made available through the LinkedIn API

We use this data solely to power internal content strategy and business development tooling. We do not share it with third parties, use it for advertising, or disclose it to any outside service.

Usage Data

How We Use What We Collect

Data collected through any connected service is used only for:

• Operating internal dashboards and tools

• Understanding business performance metrics

We do not use your data to build advertising profiles, sell to third parties, train AI models, or share with any external vendor beyond the platforms explicitly named in this policy.

Data Retention

How Long We Keep It

We retain connected data only as long as it serves active operational purposes. You may request deletion of any stored data at any time by contacting us directly. Upon request, we will remove your data from our systems within 30 days.
