Inkie Terms and Conditions
Last updated: September 2026
Introduction
These terms and conditions govern your use of the Inkie website and services; by using our website and services, you accept these terms and conditions in full. If you disagree with these terms and conditions or any part of these terms and conditions, you must not use our services.
Subscriptions & Platform
Inkie operates as a subscription-based platform. By signing up, you agree to pay the applicable subscription fee in advance on a monthly or annual basis, depending on the plan you select.
Your subscription will automatically renew at the end of each billing period unless you cancel before the renewal date. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period; you will retain access to the platform until that date.
Free trials, where offered, are available to new users only. At the end of a free trial, your subscription will automatically convert to a paid plan unless cancelled beforehand.
If your subscription lapses or is cancelled, your account will be suspended and scheduled content will no longer be published. Inkie is not liable for any missed publications resulting from a lapsed subscription.
Upon cancellation, your account data and content will be retained for 30 days, during which you may log in to retrieve anything you need. After this period, your data will be permanently deleted. You will receive an email notification at the point of cancellation confirming this timeline. Payment and billing records will be retained for 6 years in accordance with UK law.
Inkie reviews its subscription pricing annually. Any changes to pricing will take effect from 1st April each year, and users will be notified by email at least 30 days in advance. Continued use of the platform after a price change takes effect constitutes acceptance of the new pricing.
Licensing of Content
All content produced by Inkie for a client is licensed to that client for any and all commercial or non-commercial purposes. All content remains the intellectual property of Inkie until the client's payment has been completed, after which the client has full ownership rights.
Third-Party Integrations
Inkie allows you to connect third-party accounts, including social media platforms such as TikTok, Facebook, and Instagram, and website platforms such as Wix and WordPress. By connecting a third-party account, you grant Inkie permission to publish content to that account on your behalf.
Third-party accounts are connected using secure authorisation (OAuth). Inkie never sees, requests, or stores your passwords for any connected platform. Access is granted via a secure token issued by the third-party platform, which you can revoke at any time.
You are responsible for ensuring that any content published via Inkie complies with the terms, community guidelines, and policies of the relevant third-party platform. Inkie is not liable for any content that is removed, rejected, or penalised by a third-party platform, or for any suspension or termination of your account on that platform.
Inkie will only access the permissions necessary to perform the publishing function. You can revoke Inkie's access to any connected account at any time, either within the Inkie platform or directly through the third-party platform's settings. Revoking access will prevent Inkie from publishing future content to that account.
Inkie is not responsible for any changes made by third-party platforms to their APIs or policies that may affect the availability or functionality of integrations. We will endeavour to maintain integrations where possible but cannot guarantee uninterrupted service.
Data Handling & Privacy
Inkie is committed to handling your data responsibly and in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
When you connect a third-party account, Inkie accesses only the data necessary to perform its publishing function. This may include your profile information (such as display name and account ID) and the ability to post content on your behalf. We do not access, store, or share any data beyond what is required for this purpose.
Any content you create or approve within the Inkie platform is stored securely on servers located in the United Kingdom. We do not sell your data to third parties or use it for advertising purposes.
For full details of what data we collect, how it is used, and your rights under UK GDPR (including the right to access, correct, or delete your data), please refer to our full Privacy Policy at inkie.ink/privacy-policy.
If you have any concerns about how your data is handled, please contact us at hello@inkie.ink.
Linkie Pages, Enquiries and Subscriber Lists
Where your subscription includes a Linkie page (a microsite hosted by Inkie for your business), visitors to that page may send you an enquiry through its contact form and, where you have enabled it, may tick a box agreeing to receive marketing from you. Inkie stores those enquiries and that marketing consent on your behalf. This section explains how that works and who is responsible for what.
Your role and ours. For the personal data of visitors who contact you or join your list through your Linkie page, you are the data controller and Inkie is your data processor under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. Your acceptance of these terms is your written instruction to us to process that data as described here. We will not use it for any other purpose, and we will never contact your subscribers ourselves or sell or share the list.
What we store. For each enquiry: the details the visitor entered on the form and the time it was sent. For each marketing consent: the visitor's name and email address, the date and time they ticked the box, and the exact wording they agreed to. The consent wording is set by Inkie and is the same for every Linkie page; you cannot edit it.
What you can do with it. You can view your subscriber list in your Inkie dashboard, export it as a CSV file, and remove individual entries. Inkie does not send marketing emails or messages to your subscribers for you. Once you export the list you are responsible for it, including keeping it up to date if someone later withdraws consent.
Your obligations as the sender. When you use the list you must comply with UK GDPR and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR). In particular you must only send marketing the visitor agreed to, include a clear way to unsubscribe in every message, honour unsubscribe requests promptly, and tell visitors how you use their data in your own privacy notice. If a subscriber withdraws consent or asks to be removed, you must remove them from any copy of the list you hold.
Removal and rights requests. If you remove a subscriber in your dashboard, or a subscriber contacts Inkie directly, we suppress that entry so it no longer appears in your list or exports. We keep a minimal record that the consent was given and withdrawn so that both of us can show what happened if asked. If a visitor sends us an access, correction or erasure request about data we hold for you, we will tell you within five working days and help you respond.
Our obligations as your processor. We will: process the data only on your documented instructions (these terms and your actions in the dashboard); make sure anyone at Inkie who can access it is bound by confidentiality; protect it with appropriate technical and organisational security measures, including storage on servers located in the United Kingdom; use only the sub-processors listed in our Privacy Policy, who are bound by equivalent written terms, and notify you before adding or replacing one so you can object; help you meet your own obligations on security, breach notification and data protection impact assessments where relevant; tell you without undue delay if we become aware of a personal data breach affecting your data; give you the information you reasonably need to show that these obligations are being met; and not transfer the data outside the United Kingdom without appropriate safeguards.
When you leave. On cancellation or account closure, your enquiries and subscriber list are treated like the rest of your account data: available for export for 30 days, then permanently deleted, except for the minimal suppression record described above and anything we are legally required to keep.
Not included. Sending marketing from within Inkie, importing existing lists, double opt-in and integrations with email marketing tools are not part of this service. If we add any of them we will update these terms first.
