By accessing our website or downloading, installing, and using the FollowCheck browser extension, you agree to comply with and be bound by these Terms of Use ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use the website or install our browser extension.
FollowCheck is a browser-based utility designed to help users analyze follower and following relationships associated with their Instagram accounts. The analysis runs client-side in the user's browser sandbox, operates using the user's current session credentials, and is transferred locally to the FollowCheck website results page (/results) for presentation using secure origin-validated browser messaging.
FollowCheck is an independent product and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Instagram, Meta Platforms, Inc., or any of their parent companies or subsidiaries.
You must be at least the age of majority in your jurisdiction of residence to agree to these Terms. If you are under the minimum age required by applicable law to independently consent to using online services, you are not permitted to use FollowCheck.
FollowCheck is provided solely for your personal, non-commercial, and lawful use. Subject to your strict compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to visit the website and install a copy of the extension in your personal web browser.
As a user of FollowCheck, you acknowledge and agree that:
- You are entirely responsible for your actions and use of FollowCheck.
- You remain responsible for the security and maintenance of your Instagram account.
- You will comply with all applicable local, national, and international laws when using the service.
- You will comply with all terms, guidelines, and policies applicable to your Instagram account, including Instagram's own Community Guidelines and Terms of Use.
- You will carefully review analysis results before taking any actions on your Instagram profile.
FollowCheck interfaces with the Instagram web interface to parse follower data on your behalf. FollowCheck does not control, run, or manage Instagram.
Instagram may make technical alterations, block accesses, change layout elements, or modify terms of service at any time without warning. Such changes can directly impact, break, or disable the functions of the FollowCheck browser extension. We make no guarantees of permanent compatibility or seamless interoperability with Instagram.
Important Disclaimer Regarding Connection Data:
Analysis results are generated strictly from the follower/following information available in your browser tab during the manual scan. Follower relationships may change during or after a scan. Technical limitations, rate limiting, or layout updates by Instagram may affect the completeness or validity of the scan.
FollowCheck does not guarantee that every analysis result will always be 100% complete, current, accurate, or error-free. You should review the results independently before making profile management decisions, such as unfollowing or following specific accounts.
You agree not to engage in any of the following prohibited behaviors:
- Using FollowCheck for any unlawful purpose or to promote illegal activities.
- Attempting to bypass, disable, or interfere with security features of FollowCheck.
- Reverse engineering, decompiling, or attempting to extract the extension source code, except where such restriction is prohibited by law.
- Using automated scripts, scraping bots, or tools to request connection details from our site or extension in a malicious or high-velocity manner.
- Using FollowCheck to harass, stalk, threaten, or violate the legal rights of other individuals.
- Falsely representing or implying that you are associated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by FollowCheck.
The FollowCheck extension requires permission declarations (such as local storage and side panel usage) to process follower lists locally. You may inspect permissions through your Google Chrome extensions dashboard. You can uninstall and remove FollowCheck from your browser at any time, which deletes all local sandbox cache data immediately.
