Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 22, 2025

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how SlideDoctor (“Add-on,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) accesses, uses, and protects information obtained from your Google Workspace account when you install or use the Add-on for Google Slides.

2. Data We Access and How We Use It

When you invoke a feature (e.g., “Convert headline to Title case”), the Add-on reads the text, formatting, and metadata of the slide(s) you select. We process that data only while completing the requested action, and we do not combine it with data from other customers. We do not build user profiles, serve advertising, sell your data, or share it with third parties except as expressly described in this policy.

3. No Use of Workspace Data for Generalized AI/ML

SlideDoctor does not use Google Workspace APIs to develop, improve, or train generalized (non-user-specific) AI or machine-learning models. Workspace data is used exclusively to perform the feature you requested and to conduct aggregate, non-identifiable quality-improvement and feature-development activities for this product.

If a feature calls an external large language model (LLM)—for example, to rewrite a slide’s content — we transmit only the minimum text needed to fulfil the request and instruct the provider not to retain or use that text to train generalized models.

4. Security & Protection of Sensitive Data

• Encryption – All traffic between your device and our servers is encrypted with TLS 1.2 or higher. Data at rest is encrypted with AES-256.
• Least-Privilege Access Control – Service-account keys and human logins are scoped to the minimum permissions necessary, and access rights are reviewed on a periodic basis.
• Row-Level Security – Database row-level security policies enforce tenant isolation so that users can access only rows owned by their Workspace account.
• Monitoring & Alerts – Built-in database logs, usage dashboards, and automated critical-event alerts help us detect abnormal activity.
• Incident Response – If we discover a security incident that affects your Workspace data, we will investigate promptly and notify affected users by email within 72 hours of discovery.

5. Retention & Deletion

Workspace data is stored only while your account remains active in the Add-on or until you delete it within the product, whichever occurs first. After deletion, records are removed from our active storage within 24 hours. Backups containing Workspace data are retained for up to 7 days after the associated primary records are deleted and are then automatically purged.

You may request export or deletion of your Workspace data at any time by emailing support@bryceyork.com.

6. Third-Party Services

The Add-on relies on Google Workspace APIs and a managed cloud database platform. If future features invoke external LLM providers, they will do so under the safeguards described in Section 3. Please review the respective privacy policies of any third-party services to understand how they handle your information.

7. Minors’ Privacy

The Add-on is not directed to children under 18, and we do not knowingly process data from them. If you believe we have inadvertently received such data, contact us and we will delete it.

8. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Posted changes take effect when published. Continued use of the Add-on after an update constitutes acceptance.
