Privacy Policy

Last updated: December 12, 2025

1. Introduction

DocTrail ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safe-guard your information when you use our service to monitor Google Drive folders.

2. Information We Collect

To provide our service, we collect the following information:

  • Account Information: Your email address and name (provided via Google Sign-In scope email and profile).
  • Google Drive Data: We request the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.readonly scope to monitor changes. We specifically access:
    • File metadata (names, IDs, MIME types, modification times) for files in folders you actively watch.
    • Folder structure (to identify parent folders).

Important: While the drive.readonly scope grants permission to read file content, DocTrail does not download, store, or analyze the actual content of your documents. We only process metadata to generate change notifications.

3. How We Use Your Data

We use your data solely for the purpose of:

  • Monitoring changes in your specified Google Drive folders.
  • Sending email notifications to you and your subscribers when changes occur.
  • Managing your account and subscription preferences.

4. Google User Data & Limited Use Policy

DocTrail's use and transfer to any other app of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal data. We may share data with third-party service providers (like email delivery services) only to the extent necessary to provide our service.
