Privacy Policy
Effective Date: September 8, 2026
Tube-Kit respects your privacy and processes user data strictly to the extent necessary to operate the Service and provide the features explicitly requested by the user.
1. Data We Process
Depending on the features utilized, Tube-Kit may process:
- Account information, including email address;
- Connected YouTube channel details;
- Video details and metadata;
- YouTube statistics and analytics metrics;
- YouTube Analytics financial indicators, including estimated revenue and RPM (where permitted by the user);
- Subtitle data required for translation and localization;
- User-generated projects and results generated via the Service.
Tube-Kit never receives or stores your Google account password.
2. Google and YouTube Data (YouTube API Services)
Tube-Kit uses official YouTube API Services. By using Tube-Kit, you agree to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service and acknowledge that your data will be handled in accordance with the Google Privacy Policy.
When connecting a YouTube channel, Tube-Kit may access channel and video data, including metadata, statistics, performance analytics, subtitle tracks, and accessible financial performance metrics.
Financial metrics, including estimated revenue and RPM, are processed strictly to generate channel analytics and are accessible exclusively to the channel owner. Tube-Kit does not collect YouTube user comments in its current functionality.
3. Purpose of Processing & Google API Limited Use
Google and YouTube data is used exclusively to fulfill the Tube-Kit functionalities requested by the user, including:
- YouTube channel analytics;
- Content performance evaluation;
- Managing titles, descriptions, and other video metadata;
- Translation and localization;
- Subtitle track management;
- SEO tools and optimization;
- Generating analytical and AI-assisted recommendations;
- Executing user-configured content management actions.
Google API Services User Data Policy Compliance:
Tube-Kit'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.
Tube-Kit does not sell Google or YouTube data, nor is it ever used for serving targeted advertisements.
4. Artificial Intelligence (AI) Processing
To deliver user-requested AI features, selected data may be processed through external AI service providers:
- Video titles, descriptions, and subtitle texts may be transferred for translation and localization.
- Aggregated performance metrics (views, audience retention, geographic metrics, and, upon user request, revenue and RPM) may be processed for AI analytics.
OAuth tokens, account passwords, and authentication credentials are strictly never transferred to external AI services.
Google and YouTube data is never used to train, fine-tune, or validate generalized or third-party artificial intelligence models (LLM / Machine Learning models).
5. Competitor Data
Competitor channel metrics are processed strictly based on publicly accessible YouTube API data. Tube-Kit does not request or hold OAuth access to competitor channels.
6. Third-Party Sharing
Tube-Kit never sells or rents user data.
Google and YouTube data may only be processed by essential third-party service providers (cloud infrastructure, AI gateways) to the minimal extent required to deliver Service features. Tube-Kit never shares OAuth tokens, passwords, or authentication credentials with third parties.
7. Data Retention, Caching & Deletion (YouTube Developer Policies)
Data is stored only for the duration necessary to provide Service functionality, analytics, platform security, and fraud prevention.
In compliance with YouTube API Services Developer Policies, data obtained via YouTube API Services is not cached or stored for more than 30 (thirty) calendar days without refreshing it directly from the API.
Historical YouTube Analytics in the current version is retained for the past 90 days (subject to regular synchronization). If a paid subscription lapses and the account remains inactive for more than 30 days, all YouTube API-related data, access tokens, and stored analytics are permanently purged.
8. Disconnecting Channel & Revoking Permissions
Disconnecting a channel stops data synchronization immediately and hides the channel from the active dashboard. Previously stored account data is not deleted automatically upon disconnect. To completely erase all data, the user may delete their Tube-Kit account.
Users can revoke Tube-Kit's access to their Google account at any time via the official Google permissions page: Google Security Permissions Settings.
9. Account Deletion
Users can delete their account directly within Tube-Kit Account Settings. Following an account deletion request, all associated data, including connected YouTube data, analytics, projects, generated output, and saved files, is permanently deleted within 24 hours.
Deleting a Tube-Kit account does not delete or alter videos or content hosted directly on YouTube.
To prevent trial abuse, Tube-Kit may retain a minimal technical identifier associated with a previously activated YouTube channel for a duration reasonably necessary for fraud prevention.
10. Cookies and Local Storage
Tube-Kit uses strictly necessary cookies and local storage (localStorage) for:
- Session authorization and secure authentication;
- Account protection and CSRF mitigation;
- Proper performance and display of the Service interface.
Optional analytical cookies are utilized solely in accordance with user consent preferences. Google and YouTube data is never utilized for cookie-based advertising profiling.
11. Security
Tube-Kit implements robust technical and organizational measures to safeguard user data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction, including HTTPS/TLS encryption in transit and secure handling of OAuth tokens.
12. Changes to this Policy
Tube-Kit may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our Service or external platform rules. The latest policy is always accessible at: https://tube-kit.com/legal.
