We encourage you to review the Google Privacy Policy to understand how Google processes and protects information.

3How We Use YouTube Data
YouTube data is used exclusively to provide and improve TubeRipple features:
- Calculating channel performance baselines using robust statistical medians to prevent viral skew.

- Providing data-driven observations on why specific content performs well.

4Data Storage, Security, and Retention Policy
We implement industry-standard security measures including SSL/TLS encrypted connections, secure server hosting, and strict access controls.
Cache & Freshness Policy: In compliance with YouTube API Developer Policies, YouTube data is stored only as long as necessary to calculate analytics, growth baselines, and reduce redundant API requests. Core channel metadata is cached for up to 60 minutes, statistics for up to 30 minutes, and historical snapshots are captured at controlled intervals (minimum 6 hours apart) to track growth trends accurately.
Stored cached data is refreshed regularly or purged when no longer required or upon user request.
