Google Drive App Privacy Policy

This privacy notice covers the Kittl Google Drive Extension and supplements Kittl's main Privacy Policy at kittl.com/privacy. Both apply in full; this notice describes only what is specific to the Google Drive integration.

The Google Drive Extension uses the Google Picker API and the Google Drive API to let you choose images and folders from your Google Drive, import images into Kittl, and save designs and edited images to a Drive folder you choose. It requests only the "drive.file" permission, which gives Kittl access to the files and folders you choose in Google's picker and to the files the extension creates for you, and nothing else in your Drive. To show which Google account is connected, it also reads that account's name and email address. Kittl is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by Google LLC. Google Drive is a trademark of Google LLC.

When you connect Google Drive, Kittl stores only the OAuth credentials (an access token, and a refresh token where applicable) needed to call the Google Drive API on your behalf. We do not cache your files, folders, file metadata, or other Google Drive content on Kittl servers; the images you choose are fetched from the Google Drive API in your browser on demand when needed to provide the integration, and added to your Kittl workspace. Your recent imports (file names and small previews, up to 8, kept for 30 days) and the last folder you saved to are remembered only in your browser, not on Kittl servers. Anything you choose to import into a Kittl design is governed by the imported-content terms in our main Privacy Policy.

When you save a design from Kittl to Google Drive, the exported file (a PNG, JPEG, SVG, or PDF of the artboard or object you chose) and its file name are sent to Google Drive via its API and created as a new file in the folder you choose. When you edit an imported image in Kittl and save the edit, the edited image is sent the same way as a new PNG file; the original file is not changed. Once saved, those files are governed by Google's terms; you can edit or remove them in your Google Drive.

Kittl receives operational data back from Google Drive in connection with saving, for example the new file's ID and name, which we use to operate the integration. To suggest the original folder for an edited image, the extension also reads which folder that image's file is in.

Kittl'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. Kittl does not resell or redistribute Google Drive content or Google Drive-derived data to any third party.

You can disconnect Google Drive at any time in the extension's account menu, and you can remove Kittl's access at any time in your Google Account under Security, then Third-party apps and services. Google Drive content remains subject to Google's Terms of Service.
