Privacy Policy

This policy explains how Channel Publisher (the “Application”) handles information when an authorized user connects a Google account and uses the Application to prepare content for a YouTube channel.

Information we process

After a user grants permission through Google OAuth, the Application may process the connected channel’s identifier and basic channel information, OAuth authorization tokens, and the video files, thumbnails, titles, descriptions, tags, visibility settings, and processing status supplied for an upload.

How information is used

Information is used only to authenticate the authorized user, confirm the intended YouTube channel, upload and manage content requested by that user, display upload status, prevent duplicate uploads, maintain security, and diagnose errors.

Google API Services

The Application’s use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. The Application uses the YouTube Data API to perform actions explicitly requested by authorized users.

Google processes information under the Google Privacy Policy. Users can review that policy before granting OAuth access.

Sharing and sale

We do not sell Google user data. We do not use it for advertising. Information is shared only with service providers necessary to operate the Application, with Google/YouTube when performing the requested API actions, when required by law, or when the user explicitly directs us to share it.

Storage and security

Application data is stored on access-controlled infrastructure. OAuth credentials are restricted to the Application and are not exposed in the public interface. We use HTTPS in transit and apply reasonable technical and organizational safeguards. No system can guarantee absolute security.

Retention and deletion

Upload records and authorization data are retained only while needed to operate the service and maintain security. An authorized user may request deletion through the application administrator. Revoking access in Google Account permissions prevents future API access; retained authorization credentials are then removed from the Application.

Your choices

You may decline OAuth permission, revoke permission at any time, or stop using the Application. You may also ask the application administrator to remove stored account and upload data.

Children

The Application is an internal operational tool and is not intended for use by children.

Changes and contact

Material changes will be published on this page with a revised effective date. Questions or deletion requests can be submitted to the application administrator through the support contact displayed on the Google OAuth consent screen.
