Summary
TowerVault is a personal backup tool with one user, its owner. It stores encrypted backup files in the owner's own Google Drive. It collects no personal information and shares no data with anyone.
What Google data it can reach
TowerVault asks Google for one permission, drive.file. With it, TowerVault can create files and folders in the signed-in user's Google Drive, and can read, change and delete only the files and folders it created itself. It cannot reach any other file in the Drive. It does not read the user's contacts, mail, calendar or profile.
How that data is used
The only use is backup and restore. TowerVault uploads encrypted backup files, checks them, and downloads them again when the owner restores. The files are encrypted on the owner's computer before upload, and the encryption key stays on the owner's computers.
What is stored, and where
- Backup files are stored in the user's own Google Drive, under the user's own Google account.
- The sign-in token Google issues is stored only on the owner's computer, in the configuration of the backup tool.
- TowerVault has no server of its own. Nothing is sent to this website or to any third party.
Sharing
Google user data is not shared, sold, transferred or used for advertising. It is not used to train any model. No person other than the owner reads it.
Limited use
TowerVault's use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
Keeping and deleting
Backup files stay in the user's Google Drive until the user deletes them. The user can remove TowerVault's access at any time in their Google Account, under Security, then "Your connections to third-party apps and services". Deleting the TowerVault folder in Drive removes every file it stored.
