Why Does the Creator Edit Require Social Media Permissions?

Creator Edit requires partners to connect their social media profiles to the portal to verify that they own the accounts. This allows the brand's Creator Edit portal to enhance your profile, and to access content used in creator campaigns. When connecting your profile, you will be asked to give permissions to Activate Holding LLC (a subsidiary of impact.com) to access your account.

These permissions are needed in order to provide you with the best user experience. The portal only asks for permissions that are necessary and will not misuse or access any information without your consent.
