8. Specific Information by Platform
8.1. Twitter (Formerly Twitter)
Why we collect this: We need these details for our Twitter related services to function, and so that we can use Twitter API functions on your behalf in order to provide our services on your Twitter account.

We collect or process certain additional data contained in your Twitter account (which could potentially contain sensitive data) where the functionality our service is providing requires it. This could include your tweets. We only collect this type of data in order to provide a service you've asked us to. We're careful to only hold it for as long as necessary, and the purpose of the apps remains that of letting you write, schedule, and publish tweets.
