What is Instagram?
“Instagram is a free online photo sharing
and social network application. Instagram
allows users to upload, edit and share
photos with other members through the
Instagram website and social media sites
such as Twitter, Facebook and Tumblr”
(Rouse, para. 1, 2012).
#InstagramPolicyPrimer

According to the
Creators...
“Instagram is a fun and quirky way to share
your life with friends through a series of
pictures. Snap a photo with your mobile
phone, then choose a filter to transform the
image into a memory to keep around
forever”(Instagram , para 2, 2013).

Are you on
Instagram?
How long did it
take you to sign
up and start
taking happy
snaps?

How is Instagram using
YOU?


Instagram collects and stores:
Image: Instagram, 2013. 'Profile'.

Your username, password, e-mail & profile information.
(Instagram, 2013)


All content and communication you post (Instagram, 2013).

Image: @buenogisele (2013) via Instagram


The web pages you visit (Instagram, 2013).

Image: Safari History (2013)


Your Internet Protocol ("IP") address (Instagram (2013).

Image: Jones (2013)


Your browser and device type (Instagram, 2013).

Image: Tsutano (2010) via Flickr.


Referring / exit pages and URLs, number of clicks and
how you interact with links (Instagram, 2013).

Image: Jones (2013)


Your latitude and longitude if you geotag your
photo (Instagram, 2013).

What does
Instagram do with
this information?

They like to share



Instagram shares your
information with:
BUSINESSES
That are legally part of the same group of companies
that Instagram is part of, or that become part of that
group ("Affiliates").
THIRD-PARTY ORGANISATIONS
That help Instagram provide the Service to users
("Service Providers") (Instagram, 2013).

That's not all!
Instagram also shares
your information with
third-party advertising
partners for the purpose
of delivering targeted
advertisements to you
(Instagram, 2013).
Image: Robert Duncan1 (2010) via Flickr

That sure is sounding like a lot of people!

Did you know your private information
can be sold and purchased?

Well on Instagram it can!
If Instagram sells any part of their assets
to another organisation, they transfer all
information collected through the service
to the new owner (Instagram, 2013).

And this has already
happened! Ever heard
of small social media
phenomenon called
Facebook?
In September 2012,
Facebook purchased
Instagram and

YOU!

(Fox, 2012)



As part of this Facebook and Instagram have
shared insights and information with each other
(Fox, 2012).

Image: purple slog (2008) via Flickr


This included Instagram updating their
Privacy Policy to highlight this new
collaboration (Instagram, 2013).

Image: Instagram, 2013. 'Privacy Policy'.


The updated terms of service claimed the right to license all
public Instagram photos to companies, effectively transforming
the website into the world's largest photo stock agency
(McCullagh, 2012).

Image: iStock, 2013


Instagram users
were NOT happy!
In late December 2012, Instagram backtracked with CEO Kevin
Systrom announcing that the privacy terms would revert to the
version in place since the service launched in 2010 and “remove”
the language that caused a user revolt (Savides, 2012).


So for all
'Instagrammers'
out there...

Remember the
content you post on
Instagram...
isn't just yours.
