This Privacy Policy describes how the Drive Copy Tool extension ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and discloses information, and what choices you have with respect to the information.
1. Introduction
Drive Copy Tool is a productivity extension designed to help users copy Google Drive files directly from a side panel interface. The extension interacts with your Google Drive account solely to perform the actions you initiate (e.g., copying files).
2. Information We Collect
We do not collect, store, or transmit any personal data to external servers. The extension operates entirely on your device and communicates directly with Google's official APIs.
a. Google User Data To function, the extension requires access to your Google Drive via OAuth2 authentication. This access is used strictly for:
Reading the list of files you select in the active browser tab.
Copying the selected files to your Google Drive storage.
Creating a specific destination folder (e.g., "My Copies") within your Drive to organize copied files.
b. Usage Data We do not track, log, or analyze your usage behavior. All operations are performed locally within your browser session.
3. How We Use Your Information
The information accessed (file IDs, filenames, folder structures) is used only for the purpose of executing the file copy commands you request.
No Third-Party Sharing: We do not sell, trade, or transfer your information to outside parties.
No Advertising: The extension does not display ads and does not use your data for advertising purposes.
4. Permissions Justification
The extension requests the following permissions to function:
identity: Required to authenticate with Google and obtain a secure token to perform Drive operations on your behalf.
activeTab / scripting: Required to identify which files are currently selected in the Google Drive interface.
sidePanel: Required to display the user interface alongside your Drive window.
https://www.googleapis.com/*: Required to communicate directly with the Google Drive API.
5. Data Security
Since the extension does not maintain its own servers, your data remains within the Google ecosystem. The extension uses secure, industry-standard OAuth 2.0 protocol for authentication, ensuring that we never see or store your password.
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
