How VYRAL works — and why it's safe
We believe you deserve to know exactly how your data flows, why we ask for each permission, and how we protect your LinkedIn account.

Why we ask you to connect LinkedIn
VYRAL uses two separate OAuth connections — each with a specific purpose.
Publishing connection
- Publish posts directly to LinkedIn from VYRAL
- Schedule posts for later
- Auto-sync new posts you publish through VYRAL
Analytics connection
- Track impressions, reactions, comments per post
- Monitor follower growth and profile views
- Power Performance Lab patterns and scoring
Why two? LinkedIn requires separate permission scopes for content publishing and analytics data. This is a LinkedIn requirement, not ours.
Why we ask you to import your history
LinkedIn's API only gives us access to posts from the moment you connect. To give you useful insights from day one, we need your history.
Profile scan
We scan your public LinkedIn profile to import your most recent posts with text and engagement metrics. This gives the AI enough context to start learning your voice and patterns.
Excel upload (optional)
LinkedIn lets you request a data export that includes impressions — the only way to get historical impression data. Uploading this file fills the gaps and gives you richer analytics from the start.
Why posting via VYRAL matters
The difference between automatic tracking and manual data entry.
Set it and forget it
- • Metrics sync automatically every few hours
- • Impressions, reactions, comments tracked
- • Post appears in analytics immediately
- • AI learns from it automatically
- • No manual work required
Manual tracking
- • You need to import it manually
- • Impression data requires Excel upload
- • Post won't appear in analytics until imported
- • AI can't learn from it until then
- • Extra work every time
How we keep your account safe
Your LinkedIn profile is your reputation. We treat it with the respect it deserves.
Your data, your control
We only store what's needed for analytics and publishing. Nothing more.
Encrypted
All data encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest.
Delete anytime
Delete your account and all associated data at any time from Settings.
Disconnect instantly
Disconnecting LinkedIn stops all syncing immediately. No lingering access.
No data selling
We never sell, share, or monetize your data. Period.
