Privacy

Google data and its purpose

Google handles sign-in and consent. The utility uses the granted YouTube authorization to search public video metadata, verify ownership of the configured playlist, read playlist entries and current video ratings, and add or remove entries in that dedicated playlist.

The approved youtube.force-ssl scope can permit changes beyond playlists. The application itself restricts its operations to the dedicated playlist and rating reads; it does not delete videos, publish comments or change account settings.

OAuth tokens, playlist and video identifiers, selected metadata, matching caches, recovery state and sanitized operational diagnostics are stored locally with private file permissions. They are used to maintain, verify and recover the playlist, rather than for advertising or profiling.

Other services

Public program descriptions are obtained from Omny. Private Google account data is not sent to Omny.

When OpenAI-assisted matching is enabled, bounded public artist and song names, candidate video identifiers, titles, channel display names, selected public credits and durations are sent to OpenAI. Google tokens, account identity, private playlist contents, private source provenance and full descriptions or lyrics are excluded.

Google user data is not sold or shared for advertising. Its use is limited to the playlist functionality described here and is subject to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements.

Retention and control

Local credentials remain until replaced or removed. Caches, history, backups and diagnostics remain locally under the owner's control and the application's documented retention rules. The owner can remove local application data and revoke access in Google Account connections. Revoking access prevents further authorized operations; it does not automatically delete the existing playlist.
