Why Does impact.com Require Social Media Permissions?
impact.com requires partners to connect their social media profiles to the platform to verify that they own the accounts. This allows impact.com to enhance partner profiles, and to access content used in creator campaigns. When connecting your profile, you will be asked to give permissions to Activate Holding LLC (a subsidiary of impact.com) to access your account.
These permissions are needed in order to provide you with the best user experience. Rest assured that impact.com only asks for permissions that are necessary and will not misuse or access any information without your consent. It's understandable that granting permissions can be daunting, but please know that we take your privacy and security very seriously.
