How we collect data

We believe you should know exactly where your listing comes from. Here's the full picture — in plain language.

✅ You're in control

If there's a listing for you and you'd rather there wasn't, you can remove it in a couple of minutes, for free — and it won't come back. Or claim it to manage your own stats, links and deal preferences.

The short version

SocialDB is a public directory of creators. Many profiles are auto-generated from publicly available information — the same things anyone can see on a creator's public profile, like their display name, handle, follower count and recent public posts.

A profile being here does not mean the creator has joined, verified, or endorsed SocialDB, and any suggested rates are estimates, not figures set by the creator.

Where the data comes from

We collect publicly available information in three ways, depending on the platform:

🔑

1 · Official platform APIs

We use the platform's own official, sanctioned API — the authorised way to read public profile and channel information.

YouTubeTwitchKickRedditDiscordInstagram & Threads · via Meta

📡

2 · Open, public feeds & directories

These platforms publish information openly for anyone to read — for example public RSS feeds and open protocols.

3 · Publicly visible profile pages

We use the publicly visible information on a creator's public profile — the same details any visitor to that page can see.

🔒We only ever use public information. We never access private accounts, private messages, or anything behind a login that belongs to the creator.

What we show — and what's an estimate

Profiles show public details such as display name, handle, platform, follower/subscriber counts, and links to the creator's own channels. Some pages also show suggested sponsorship rates and brand-safety indicators.

These are estimates generated from public data — not guarantees, not financial advice, and not statements of any creator's actual income or willingness to work with brands. A creator who claims their listing can correct or replace any of this.

Your choices

🗑 Remove it

Ask us to take your listing down from the contact page. Free, a couple of minutes, and block-listed so it won't be re-created.

✓ Claim it

If it's you, claim your listing to control your stats, links, and whether you accept sponsorship requests.

✏️ Correct it

Once claimed, you can update or hide information that's out of date.

Privacy & personal data

Even public information can be personal data, and we treat it that way. How we handle personal data — including your rights to access or delete it — is described in our Privacy Policy. You can reach us with any data request there.
