Privacy policy

Effective 22 July 2026.

Questions or deletion requests may be sent to me@jamiep.org.

Information used

We use your Google account identifier and email address to authenticate you, bind a generation-scoped membership, and enforce any explicit suspension. As part of the same authorization, Alpha Compose receives only the drive.file permission, allowing access to files you select or that Alpha Compose creates. We process activity data and optional watermark content solely to create the requested output. For a product-updates signup, we process the email address solely to send the notification to the operator.

Project JSON and browser state

Alpha Compose does not automatically persist Project JSON. Project JSON exists only when you explicitly download, copy, upload, or paste it yourself. It may include private activity data, a selected Drive reference, and bounded embedded assets so you can resume the same browser workflow later.

Credentials, CSRF values, signed URLs, recording-clock candidates, preview images, playback state, and job results are excluded from Project JSON. Normal browsing, previewing, clock inspection, and completed-output playback do not create an automatic saved project.

Storage and retention

Encrypted Google Drive authorization, membership, and job records are stored in Google Cloud. Temporary request and output objects are deleted after 24 hours; job metadata is scheduled for deletion after 90 days. Completed outputs are delivered to your Google Drive and remain there until you delete them. Alpha Compose does not retain product-updates signups in Firestore, application logs, analytics, or another application data store. Those details exist only during bounded request processing and in the configured email processor and recipient mailbox.

Homepage YouTube videos

Alpha Compose retrieves public playlist titles, descriptions, positions, and durations server-side for the signed-out homepage. The privacy-enhanced YouTube player and video thumbnails can still cause your browser to contact YouTube. YouTube receives network and browser information needed to deliver them. Alpha Compose does not send your Google account, Drive files, or activity data to YouTube. YouTube handles its data under the Google Privacy Policy.

Sharing and security

We use Google Cloud and Google Drive to operate the service, and Resend processes the plain-text product-updates notification. We do not sell personal information or use activity data for advertising. Verified Google users enroll on first sign-in; administrators can suspend or reactivate membership. Credentials are encrypted, and application logs exclude activity-data values, filenames, email addresses, and tokens. Use and transfer of information received from Google APIs follows the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements.

Your choices

You may disconnect Alpha Compose in your Google Account, delete delivered files from Drive, or email me@jamiep.org with a contact or deletion request covering service records or a product-updates notification. Revoking Drive access may prevent pending renders from completing.
