1. Description of Service
The Service enables owners of Instagram Professional Accounts (“Creators,” “you”) to automatically send a single private reply to users who comment on their own Instagram media.
The Service connects to Instagram via the official Instagram Login and requests only the permissions necessary to operate:
instagram_basic (access to basic account information)
instagram_manage_comments (to read and respond to comments on your own media)
instagram_manage_messages (to send one private reply in response to a comment)
The Service does not send unsolicited messages, does not initiate conversations, and only operates on your own Instagram content in accordance with Meta’s policies.

2. User Accounts and Responsibilities
• Eligibility: You must operate an Instagram Professional Account (Business or Creator) in good standing.
• Authorization: By using the Instagram OAuth flow, you authorize the Service to access the information required to operate (including your Instagram User ID, comment IDs, and media IDs) and to send one private reply per comment on your behalf.
• Compliance: You are responsible for all content you publish and for all replies sent through the Service. You must comply with all applicable laws, Instagram’s Terms of Use, Community Guidelines, and Meta’s Platform Terms and Developer Policies.
• Account Security: You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials.
