Histovio Uploader Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy

Effective date: 9 November 2026 · Last updated: 9 November 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how Histovio Uploader (“the App”, “we”, “us”) handles information when you sign in with Google and use the App to manage YouTube channels. The App is operated by the owner of the Histovio Official YouTube channel. Contact: wonderbrainbox@gmail.com.

1. Who this App is for

Histovio Uploader is a private tool used by the channel owner (and authorised operators they invite) to upload and manage videos on their own YouTube channels through the YouTube Data API. It is not a consumer social product and does not sell access to the public.

2. Information we access through Google / YouTube

When you authorise the App with Google, it may access:

• Your Google account identity needed to complete OAuth sign-in (such as account email shown by Google)
• YouTube channel information for channels you own or can manage
• Video metadata (titles, descriptions, tags, privacy status, thumbnails) for upload and update operations
• Video files and related assets you choose to upload through the App

The App requests only the YouTube scopes required for these operations, typically including youtube and youtube.upload (or equivalent YouTube Data API scopes needed to upload and manage videos).

3. How we use information

We use Google user data solely to:

• Authenticate the signed-in Google account
• Upload videos to the authorised YouTube channel(s)
• Read or update video and channel metadata that the signed-in account is allowed to manage
• Maintain a working connection until you revoke access

We do not use Google user data for advertising, selling data, building unrelated profiles, or training AI models.

4. Google API Services User Data Policy — Limited Use

Histovio Uploader’s use and transfer to any other app of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

5. Storage, retention, and deletion

• OAuth tokens are stored locally on the machine running the App (or in the operator’s local secure storage) so the App can keep working without asking you to sign in every time.
• Tokens are retained only while the App needs them for authorised YouTube operations.
• You can revoke the App’s access at any time at https://myaccount.google.com/permissions. After revocation, the App can no longer access your Google or YouTube data with those credentials.
• You may also delete local token files from the machine where the App is installed, or email wonderbrainbox@gmail.com to request deletion of any App-held copies related to your account.
• Video content you upload becomes part of your YouTube channel and is thereafter governed by YouTube’s own retention and deletion controls.

6. Sharing

We do not sell or rent Google user data. We do not share Google user data with third parties except as required to operate the YouTube upload/management features through Google’s own APIs, or if required by law.

7. YouTube and Google terms

By using the App you also agree to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service. Google’s handling of account data is described in the Google Privacy Policy.

8. Security

We take reasonable steps to protect OAuth tokens and local credentials, including restricting access to the machines that run the App. No method of electronic storage is perfectly secure; please protect devices that store tokens and revoke access if a device is lost or compromised.

9. Children’s privacy

The App is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

10. Changes

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do. Continued use of the App after an update means you accept the revised policy.
