Our hosting or security systems may process limited technical information such as IP address, browser and device information, requested page, date and time, referring page, and basic server, error and security logs.

If you contact us, we may receive the information you choose to provide, such as your name, email address, message and attachments.

3. Instagram and Meta API data
The website uses an official Instagram API integration authorised by the owner or administrator of The Devil Backer's Instagram professional account.
Depending on what Meta makes available for our own authorised account, we may retrieve and display media IDs, username, captions, images, video thumbnails, media URLs, media type, post permalink, publication time, like count, comment count and carousel child-media information.
This information is used only to display our own social content, link visitors to the original post, maintain the integration and troubleshoot errors. We do not sell Instagram Platform Data, build visitor profiles from it, or use it to retrieve private information about website visitors.
Instagram access tokens and credentials are stored server-side and are not intentionally exposed in public website code.
4. YouTube API data
The website may use YouTube Data API services to retrieve public information about selected The Devil Backer videos or playlists, including video IDs, titles, descriptions, thumbnails, publication dates, durations and links. Visitors are not required to sign in to YouTube for this feature.
5. How we use information
- Operate, secure and improve the website.
- Display our music, videos and social-media posts.
- Respond to messages and support requests.
- Diagnose technical issues and prevent abuse.
- Comply with legal and platform requirements.
8. Data retention
We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for its purpose, security, dispute resolution or legal compliance. Cached social-feed data is temporary and normally overwritten automatically.
9. Data security
We use reasonable safeguards such as HTTPS, server-side credential storage, restricted configuration files and limited API access. No online system can be guaranteed completely secure.
10. Your privacy rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, withdrawal of consent or a copy of personal information. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request.
11. User data deletion instructions

12. Children's privacy
The website is not directed to children below the age at which parental consent is required in their country. A parent or guardian may contact us if they believe a child has provided personal information.
13. Third-party services
The website may link to or display content from Instagram, Meta, YouTube, Google and music-streaming platforms. Those services operate independently under their own terms and privacy policies.
