Privacy notice

Bright Aside Publisher uses Google Drive and YouTube API Services to publish videos on a channel designated by the operator. The authorized Google account owns the Apps Script project, queue, and publisher records.

Data used

The publisher reads the selected channel ID and the visibility, processing state, and scheduling details of videos it handles. It reads video files and their metadata from the designated Drive queue and writes processing receipts there. Its Apps Script project stores the OAuth client credentials, refresh token, and upload state so the publisher can run when the operator is away.

Where it goes

The video files and their metadata are sent to YouTube through its API. Approved videos become public at their scheduled times. Queue records and credentials stay in the operator’s Google account or on the operator’s Mac. The publisher does not sell Google user data or use it for advertising. Its use of information from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

Access and deletion

The operator can revoke authorization in Google Account connections. The operator can disable the publisher trigger and remove its queue files, local copies, or publisher records. Published and scheduled videos are managed in YouTube Studio.

See the Google Privacy Policy for Google’s handling of data.
