YouTube Inbox privacy

Last updated September 23, 2026.

This private application is for one owner. After Google sign-in, it uses the YouTube API to read subscriptions and video metadata, and to add videos the owner selects to a private YouTube playlist. It stores those records, review choices, and sync history in a private database so the inbox works across visits.

Google OAuth credentials are stored server-side in encrypted form. The application does not sell or share inbox data with other users. Access to the inbox is limited to the approved Google account.

You can revoke this app's access at Google Account permissions. To request removal of stored data, contact paulhelmick@gmail.com. Google's Privacy Policy and the YouTube Terms of Service also apply.
