12YouTube Data (FoziQ)
FoziQ uses YouTube API Services. FoziQ is FoziScribe's YouTube research tool. If you choose to connect a YouTube channel to FoziQ, we access data from your YouTube account through YouTube API Services, with your permission, using Google's OAuth sign-in. Google's handling of that data is governed by the Google Privacy Policy, and your use of YouTube by the YouTube Terms of Service.
What we access
We ask for two read-only permissions and nothing else:
- View your YouTube account (
youtube.readonly): your channel's name, handle, description, country, profile image, channel keywords, and subscriber, view and video counts; and your uploaded videos' titles, descriptions, tags, durations, publish dates and view, like and comment counts. - View YouTube Analytics reports for your channel (
yt-analytics.readonly): for each of your videos, views, watch time, average percentage viewed, and subscribers gained and lost; and, for your channel, daily views and subscribers gained and lost.
How we use it
- To show you your own channel in FoziQ: your baseline, growth, uploads, top videos and milestones.
- To research the tags on your channel and your top videos into your personal keyword library, and to show which keywords your videos rank for.
- To notify you β in the app and by email β when your channel passes a views or subscribers milestone. You can unsubscribe from these emails at any time.
Your YouTube Analytics data is shown only to you. We do not sell your YouTube data, use it for advertising, or share it with third parties. Information about your channel and videos that is already public on YouTube β the same information any viewer can see β may appear in FoziQ's research results in the same way as any other public channel.
How we store it
- Your Google access tokens are encrypted before they are stored, and are never shown in the browser.
- While your channel is connected, its data is refreshed regularly. Any YouTube data we have not refreshed within 30 days is deleted or refreshed.
Revoking access and deleting your data
- Disconnect in FoziQ: on the Your channel page, choose Disconnect. We revoke our access at Google straight away and delete the YouTube data we hold for that channel within 7 days. Reconnecting within that time picks up where you left off.
- Revoke at Google: you can remove FoziQ's access at any time from your Google security settings. We delete the YouTube data we hold for that channel within 30 days of the revocation.
- Ask us to delete it: email support@foziscribe.ai from the address on your account, and we will delete your YouTube data within 7 days.
Questions about how FoziQ handles YouTube data can be sent to support@foziscribe.ai.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make significant changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
For material changes that significantly affect how we handle your data, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you via the email address associated with your account before the changes take effect.
Continued use of FoziScribe after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
