# How Statbrag works

> Statbrag turns your stats into images ready to post, and hands them to Buffer, which schedules posts on your social media.

## Cards

A card is one image of a stat: a headline, one big number or chart, and a few smaller stats around it. It comes with the caption and alt text that go out with it. You pick its style and its format: portrait for the feed, or story for a full phone screen. Your agent makes cards for you, or you describe one in Statbrag, and you can change any word or number.

## Decks

A deck is a few of your cards, in order, about one thing: a week, a project, a goal. You send them together: as a carousel people swipe through, as a LinkedIn document with a page per card, or as a series, one post per card spread over days.

## How cards reach Buffer

Buffer schedules posts on your social media. When you send a card or a deck, Statbrag makes the posts in your Buffer account, one for each channel you pick, with the timing you choose: a draft, the end or the top of your queue, a set time, or now. On Instagram and Facebook, a card can also go out as a story.

## Photos

You can put a photo behind a card's stats: one of your own, or one of the free stock photos anyone can use. Statbrag removes a photo's location data before storing it. You can also put your own picture on a card in place of your initials. To put the stats over a photo in another app, download the card with no background, as a transparent PNG.

## Your data

Statbrag keeps your account, your cards and decks, your photos, and the posts it made in Buffer; your Buffer sign-in is stored encrypted. Your agent reads your own tools, files and screenshots, and sends Statbrag only the words and numbers for a card, and a link to a photo when you give it one. Card images sit at public links so Buffer can fetch them, and your photos do too. Each link is a long code that can't be guessed and doesn't name you. To delete your account and everything in it, email contact@statbrag.com. More in the [privacy policy](https://statbrag.com/privacy).
