2. KingAcademic YouTube Uploader
KingAcademic YouTube Uploader is a private, internal tool used solely by KingAcademic to publish our own video content to our own YouTube channel. It is not offered to the public and has no end users other than KingAcademic staff.
3. Google user data we access
The tool requests the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/youtube scope. This is used only to upload videos to, and manage videos on, the KingAcademic YouTube channel owned by the authenticating Google account.
We do not read, collect, or store any other Google account data. We do not access Gmail, Drive, Contacts, or any other Google service.
4. Storage and retention
OAuth access tokens and refresh tokens are stored locally on KingAcademic’s own computer in a credentials file that is not shared, published, or transmitted to any third party. Video files and their titles, descriptions, and tags are sent directly to the YouTube Data API and are not retained by any intermediate server.
5. Sharing
We do not sell, rent, transfer, or otherwise share Google user data with any third party. We do not use it for advertising, and we do not use it to train any AI or machine learning model.

7. Revoking access
Access can be revoked at any time at https://myaccount.google.com/permissions. Revoking access immediately invalidates our stored tokens.
8. Website visitors
