What AgentikAds is

AgentikAds lets agencies, and businesses running their own ads, manage Google Ads through Claude, the AI assistant made by Anthropic. You connect your Google Ads accounts, then ask Claude to report on them or change them. The AgentikAds website is where you sign up, set limits, see the history of changes and manage billing. Agencies can also track their clients' leads and give each client a private leads page.

Our two roles

  • Your own data. For your account, your team and your use of AgentikAds, we decide how the data is used, as described here.
  • Your clients' customers. When an agency turns on lead tracking, people who contact the agency's clients through their websites or by phone become leads in AgentikAds. We hold those details on the agency's behalf and only to provide the service to them. The agency decides what is collected, and is responsible for telling those people and for having a lawful basis to collect their details and to send them to Google. If you are one of those people, please contact the business you got in touch with first. We will help them answer you.

What we collect

About you and your team

  • Your name, email address and Google sign-in identity, and your time zone.
  • Your team: who you invited, when they joined and which changes each person made.
  • A record of each sign-in: the time, the IP address and the browser, kept for security.
  • Your plan and subscription status. Payments are handled by Stripe. We never see or store card details.

From Google Ads

  • Account structure: campaigns, ad groups, ads, keywords, assets and targeting.
  • Performance: impressions, clicks, cost, conversions and search terms.
  • Conversion settings and, for calls from your ads, the caller's area code, the call's length and its time. Google never gives us a caller's number or name.
  • Your account's currency and time zone. We never see your Google billing or payment details.
  • The token Google gives us when you connect, so we can act on your behalf until you disconnect.

Most of this is read live when Claude or the website asks for it. We store what the service needs: your account names and IDs, the limits and settings you choose (the emergency stop, a change cap if you set one, spend guard limits and who to alert), a history of every change made through AgentikAds (who made it, from which app, and the values before and after), daily watch summaries, and client reports you create.

Lead tracking, when an agency turns it on

  • What a client's website form sends: typically a name, email address, phone number, postcode and message, the page it came from, and the Google click ID and campaign tags in the page address.
  • Calls from the ads, as above (area code, length and time only).
  • What happened next, as recorded by the agency or its client: the status of each lead, quotes, job values, notes and a history of each change.

Client leads pages

  • The client contact email addresses the agency gives us, for the weekly lead email.
  • The page's password, stored only in a form that cannot be turned back into the password.
  • A record of each sign-in attempt (time, IP address and browser), used to lock out repeated wrong guesses.

The free Google Ads forecast

  • The business description and location you enter, the forecast we produce, and the email address you give to receive it, which we confirm with a one-time code.

Website analytics

  • We use PostHog to see which pages are visited. When you are signed in, this is linked to your account ID and email address.

How we use it

  • To do what you ask. Claude calls our tools to read your accounts and make the changes you ask for. Every change is checked against your limits, confirmed with Google and recorded so it can be undone.
  • Checks that run on a timer. Only the ones you set up: the spend guard checks spend every 30 minutes and alerts you or pauses the account when a limit you set is reached; the new-account watch emails a daily summary; lead tracking matches leads to ad clicks, adds calls and sends the weekly lead email.
  • Security, billing and support. To keep accounts safe, take payment and help when you ask us to.

Sending lead outcomes to Google

Only if the agency switches it on for a client. When a lead is marked as a won job (and, if chosen, as quoted), we tell Google Ads so it can learn which clicks become customers. We send the job's value, the time, and either the Google click ID or the lead's email address and phone number. The email address and phone number are scrambled with a one-way function (SHA-256) before they leave us, so Google can match them but they are never sent in readable form. We also send the consent signal the agency chose. If the agency says there is no consent, nothing is sent. Calls and leads added by hand are never sent.

Claude and AI

You use AgentikAds through your own Claude account. When Claude uses our tools, the results go to your Claude conversation and are handled by Anthropic under your agreement with them. We do not run AI on your Google Ads data or your leads ourselves. The one place we use AI on our own account is the free forecast: the business description you type is sent to Anthropic to choose the search terms to look up.

Emails we send

Sent through Resend, only to addresses given to us: password reset messages, forecast codes and reports, team invitations, payment problems, spend guard alerts, watch summaries, client reports (only when you send one), and the weekly lead email to the client addresses an agency sets.

What we never do

  • Sell your data, or your clients' customers' data.
  • Use it for advertising or to build profiles of people.
  • Use it to train AI models.
  • Change a Google Ads account unless someone asks. The one exception is the spend guard, which pauses an account only if you set it to pause when a limit is reached.

How long we keep it

  • Leads: names, contact details, messages and notes are deleted 24 months after a lead arrives, or after the period the agency sets. Dates, statuses and job values are kept without them.
  • Your account: while it is open. When you delete it, we delete your Google Ads accounts in AgentikAds and everything held for them (change history, limits, watch summaries, reports, leads and leads pages), revoke our Google access and cancel your subscription. If you were a member of someone else's team, the changes you made stay in that team's history with your email address, so their record stays complete.
  • Forecasts: we keep forecasts and the email addresses given for them as a record of who asked. Email us to have yours deleted.

Storage and security

  • Data is stored in a PostgreSQL database hosted by Railway.
  • All connections are encrypted with TLS.
  • API keys and the tokens that connect Claude are stored only as SHA-256 hashes, and leads page passwords only as Argon2 hashes.
  • Some credentials have to be stored as they are, because the service uses them to act: the Google connection token and each client's lead form token. Access to the database is limited to the people who run the service.
  • Sign-ins, leads page sign-ins and lead submissions are rate-limited, and secrets in web addresses are removed from our logs.

Google user data

AgentikAds' use and transfer to any other app of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

  • Google Ads data is used only to provide the features described above: reports, checks, alerts and the changes you ask for.
  • We do not use Google user data for advertising, and we never sell it.
  • Data is transferred to third parties only as needed to provide the service (for example, to Anthropic through your own Claude when you ask Claude to use our tools), to comply with the law, or as part of a merger or acquisition with notice to you first.
  • We do not use Google user data to develop, improve or train generalised AI or machine-learning models.
  • People can see Google user data only when needed for security, to comply with the law, or for support you have asked for.

Services we use

  • Google: sign-in, the Google Ads API, and Places to suggest locations as you type in the forecast.
  • Anthropic: the free forecast, as described above. Your own Claude account is between you and Anthropic.
  • Railway: hosting and the database.
  • Resend: email.
  • Stripe: payments and subscriptions.
  • PostHog: website analytics.
  • Telegram: internal alerts to our team, for example when someone signs up, which can include an email address.

Cookies

We use a cookie to keep you signed in, one to remember your time zone, one to keep a client signed in to their leads page, and PostHog's analytics cookies.

Your rights

You can at any time:

  • Disconnect Claude, or switch any client account off, in Settings or by asking Claude.
  • Delete your account and its data in Settings.
  • Revoke our access in your Google Account permissions.
  • Ask us for a copy of your data, or to correct or delete it, by email.
