Privacy Policy
Last updated: 28 August 2026
ICanRiseUp Studio ("the application") is a private, single-operator tool used by
LARS Technologies to publish video content to YouTube channels that it owns and
operates. The application is not offered to the public and has no end users
other than its operator.
INFORMATION THE APPLICATION ACCESSES
The application uses Google OAuth 2.0 to obtain permission to act on the
operator's own YouTube account. It requests these scopes:
- .../auth/youtube.upload — to upload video files
- .../auth/youtube — to set video metadata, manage playlists, and set
thumbnails on the operator's own channels
The application reads the authenticated channel's identity to confirm it is
publishing to the intended channel, and writes videos, titles, descriptions,
tags, thumbnails and playlist entries to that channel. It does not access viewer
data, comments, analytics, or any other person's account.
INFORMATION THE APPLICATION STORES
OAuth access and refresh tokens are stored on private hardware controlled by the
operator, in a directory readable only by the operator's account. Video files and
metadata are stored on the operator's own storage. Nothing is transmitted to any
third party, and no database of personal information is maintained.
HOW INFORMATION IS USED
Credentials are used solely to publish the operator's own content to the
operator's own YouTube channels. They are never used for advertising, prof
resale, or any purpose beyond that publishing function.
LIMITED USE DISCLOSURE
The application's use and transfer of information received from Google API
adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited
requirements. Data obtained through Google APIs is not transferred to thir
parties, is not used for advertising, and is not read by humans except as
required for security purposes or to comply with applicable law.
DATA SHARING
No data obtained through Google APIs is shared with any third party.
DATA RETENTION AND REMOVAL
Authorisation can be revoked at any time at
https://myaccount.google.com/permissions. Revoking access immediately ends the
application's ability to act on the account. Stored tokens are deleted fro
operator's hardware on revocation.
CHILDREN'S PRIVACY
The application is not directed at children and collects no information fr
anyone other than its operator.
CHANGES TO THIS POLICY
Any change to this policy will be published on this page with a revised date
YouTube API Services
ICanRiseUp Studio, our internal publishing tool, uses YouTube API Services. By using our YouTube channels you agree to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service (https://www.youtube.com/t/terms). Google's handling of data is described in the Google Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
What information we access, collect, store and use
- OAuth 2.0 access and refresh tokens for our own YouTube channels, created when the channel owner authorises the tool. They are stored only on our own server, in a directory readable only by the operator, and are never shared.
- Basic details of our own channels and videos (channel id and name, video ids, processing and privacy status), used only to confirm that an upload reached the right channel and finished processing.
- We do not access, collect or store personal information about YouTube viewers or any other channel, and the tool uses no cookies or analytics.
Sharing
We do not sell, rent or share any data obtained through YouTube API Services with any third party.
Revoking access and deleting data
The channel owner can revoke the tool's access at any time at https://security.google.com/settings/security/permissions (or https://myaccount.google.com/permissions). On revocation, or on request to amareshkulkarni@gmail.com, we delete all stored tokens and channel data within 7 days and in any case within 30 days. We refresh or delete stored API data at least every 30 days, as the YouTube API Services Developer Policies require.
Changes and contact
We will update this page if our use of YouTube API Services changes.
