Privacy Policy

1. Who we are

YouTube Insights is the data controller for the personal data described here. For privacy matters, contact us at contact@youtubeinsights.app.

2. What we collect

Account data: your email address and, optionally, a display name.

Usage data: the video links you submit, the articles generated for you, your credit balance and processing history, and in-app preferences (language, theme).

Technical data: basic logs and security information needed to operate the Service.

3. How AI processing works

To generate an article, the video’s transcript and our prompts are sent to Google’s Gemini API. We use the paid Gemini API tier, under which Google does not use your content to train its models. Your account credentials are never sent to the AI.

4. Why we use your data (legal bases)

To provide the Service and your account (performance of a contract); to keep the Service secure and prevent abuse (legitimate interest); and to comply with legal obligations. We do not sell your personal data.

5. Processors we use

Supabase (database, authentication), Google (Gemini AI processing), Fly.io (processing workers, EU region), Vercel (web hosting) and Resend (transactional email). These providers process data on our behalf under appropriate agreements.

6. Cookies

We use only essential cookies: to keep you signed in and to remember your chosen language and theme. We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.

7. Data retention

We keep your account and articles for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we delete your personal data within a reasonable period, except where the law requires us to retain certain records.

8. Your rights

Wherever you are, you can request access to your data, correction, deletion, a copy of your data, or object to certain processing. EU/EEA and UK residents have these rights under the GDPR/UK GDPR. To exercise them, contact contact@youtubeinsights.app. You may also complain to your local data protection authority.

9. International transfers

Some providers may process data outside your country. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses.

10. Security

We use industry-standard measures (encryption in transit, access controls, row-level security). No system is perfectly secure, but we work to protect your data.

11. Children

The Service is not intended for children under the age of digital consent in their country. We do not knowingly collect their data.

12. Changes & contact

We may update this Policy; material changes will be announced. Questions: contact@youtubeinsights.app.
