Data Privacy & Security
Understand how your advertising data is protected when using Ad Superpowers with AI assistants like Claude and ChatGPT.
The Bottom Line
- Claude does not train on your conversations. Your advertising data is processed to generate responses, then discarded.
- Your credentials stay with you. OAuth tokens are encrypted and stored in Ad Superpowers' database, not shared with Anthropic or OpenAI.
- Read-only by default. MCP tools only read data from ad platforms - they can't modify campaigns unless you explicitly use write tools.
- More controlled than alternatives. Using MCP is safer than copy-pasting data into AI tools or uploading CSVs with unclear privacy policies.
How Your Data Flows
When you ask Claude about your advertising data, here's exactly what happens:
Your Request
You ask Claude "Show me my Meta campaign performance"
MCP Request
Claude calls Ad Superpowers via MCP with your API key
Platform Query
Ad Superpowers uses your stored OAuth token to fetch data from Meta
Response
Data returns through MCP to Claude, which formats your answer
What's stored where:
- Ad Superpowers: Your encrypted OAuth tokens, API keys, and usage logs. We never store your actual ad data.
- Claude/Anthropic: Processes your conversation in memory to generate responses. Not stored for training.
- Ad Platforms: Your actual ad data lives here (Meta, Google, etc.). We only read it when you ask.
AI Training Policies
Claude (Anthropic)
- Does not train on user conversations by default
- MCP tool results are processed, not stored
- Enterprise plans offer additional data retention controls
ChatGPT (OpenAI)
- ChatGPT Plus/Team does not train on your conversations
- MCP is only available on Plus (requires opt-in)
- Free tier may use data for training (opt out in settings)
Gemini (Google)
- Gemini Advanced does not train on your data by default
- Gemini CLI supports MCP natively
- Free tier conversations may be reviewed for quality
Model-Agnostic Tools (Cursor, n8n, Antigravity)
Some MCP-compatible tools let you choose which AI model to use. The data privacy policy depends on which model you configure:
Uses Claude or GPT-4 - check the respective provider's policy
Configurable backend - you choose which AI API to connect
Uses Gemini by default - Google's privacy policy applies
Tip: When using model-agnostic tools, always check which AI provider is configured and review their specific data policies.
Safer Than the Alternatives
Many marketers are already using AI to analyze client data - but often in less controlled ways:
| Method | Data Control | Training Risk | Visibility |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ad Superpowers + MCP | Full control | None | See every tool call |
| Copy/paste into ChatGPT (free) | No control | May be used | Manual only |
| Upload CSVs to random AI tools | Unknown | Unknown | None |
| Share spreadsheets via email | Limited | None | No audit trail |
Our Security Measures
Data Protection
- All OAuth tokens encrypted at rest (AES-256)
- TLS 1.3 encryption for all connections
- We never store your actual ad data
- GDPR compliant - export or delete your data anytime
Access Control
- OAuth 2.0 with minimal required scopes
- Read-only access by default
- Revoke platform access anytime from dashboard
- Audit logs for all data access
For Agencies Managing Client Data
If you're an agency using Ad Superpowers with client ad accounts, here's what you should know:
- Client data isn't used for AI training. Claude processes it in-memory to answer questions, then discards it.
- You control which accounts are connected. Only platforms you explicitly authorize can be accessed.
- Full transparency. You can see exactly which MCP tools are called and what data is requested.
- Enterprise options available. For highly sensitive clients, Anthropic offers enterprise plans with additional privacy guarantees.
Consider updating your client agreements to mention AI-assisted analysis if you haven't already - it's becoming standard practice in the industry.
