Welcome to TubeToolkit. We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our website and tools.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect information about you in a variety of ways. The information we may collect on the Site includes:

• Personal Data: When you register for an account, we collect personal information, such as your name, email address, and profile picture, as provided by our authentication service (Google Firebase). We use this information solely to create and manage your account.
• Content You Provide: When you use our AI and data-processing tools, the content you input (like text for translation, topics for outlines, or URLs for analysis) is processed to provide you with the service. This data is sent to third-party services to generate the output and is not stored permanently in our database.

2. How We Use Your Information

Having accurate information about you permits us to provide you with a smooth, efficient, and customized experience. Specifically, we may use information collected about you via the Site to:

• Create and manage your account.
• Send your inputs to third-party APIs to generate tool outputs.
• Monitor and analyze usage and trends to improve your experience with the Site.
• Respond to customer service requests.

3. Third-Party Services

Our tools rely on various third-party services to function:

• Google Firebase: We use Firebase for user authentication and as our database (Firestore) to store user account information.
• Google AI (via Genkit): Our AI-powered tools (e.g., AI Writer, Title Generator) send your input prompts to Google's AI models to generate content. We do not store the prompts or the generated content after the request is complete.
• YouTube Data API: Some of our YouTube tools interact with the YouTube API. If you provide your own API key, it is stored securely and used for these requests. Otherwise, requests are made through our server's key.

4. Security of Your Information

We use administrative, technical, and physical security measures to help protect your personal information. While we have taken reasonable steps to secure the personal information you provide to us, please be aware that despite our efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and no method of data transmission can be guaranteed against any interception or other type of misuse.

5. Your Rights

You have the right to access, update, or delete your personal information. You can manage your account details from your dashboard. If you wish to delete your account entirely, please contact us.

6. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
