You receive a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the add-on and its materials for personal, non-commercial use only.

You may not sell, sublicense, publicly host as a paid service, or otherwise use the add-on commercially.

You may not copy, modify, distribute, reverse-engineer, or remove notices from the add-on or its materials.

If you violate these rules, your license ends, and you must delete all copies in your control.

Acceptable Use

Do not:

• Bypass API quotas or rate limits, or republish outputs at scale.

• Probe, disrupt, or attack security or access you are not entitled to.

• Use the add-on or its outputs in ways that violate laws, platform rules, or third-party rights.

• Use the add-on to process, export, or reuse YouTube data in ways that violate YouTube, Google, or optional ML provider rules.

• Submit content to optional ML providers unless you have the right to process that content and accept that provider’s terms.

Data & Privacy

The add-on requests only the Google and YouTube permissions needed to provide its features.

The add-on runs in your Google account context and writes results, logs, charts, helper sheets, and run state into your spreadsheet or Google-managed properties connected to the add-on.

The developer does not sell your data.

The developer does not send your spreadsheet data or YouTube outputs to developer-controlled servers.

If you choose “Use ML,” the add-on may send selected comment text or related text directly to the ML provider you selected and configured. This may include providers such as Google Natural Language, Azure Text Analytics, AWS Comprehend, IBM Watson NLU, Hugging Face, or Oracle OCI AI Language.

Those providers process data under their own terms, privacy policies, quotas, pricing, and security practices.

Privacy Policy: https://www.tostaygrateful.com/ContentCuratorForYouTube#h.bsgtb89c8e33

Optional ML Providers

ML features are optional.

If you do not select “Use ML,” the add-on uses its built-in non-ML logic for sentiment classification.

If you select “Use ML,” you are responsible for the provider account, API key, endpoint, region, charges, quotas, terms, and permissions connected to that provider.

The add-on may save your selected ML provider and provider settings in Google DocumentProperties tied to the spreadsheet so the add-on can run without asking for the same setup each time.

You can clear provider settings, revoke provider keys, uninstall the add-on, or revoke Google permissions when you no longer want ML processing.

AI, ML, Translation, Charts, and Output Accuracy

Outputs are informational.

Sentiment labels, translations, rankings, charts, summaries, and classifications may be incomplete, delayed, inaccurate, or affected by YouTube API data, provider results, quota limits, language differences, and spreadsheet settings.

Review important results before relying on them.

Your Controls

• You can delete any add-on-created sheets or the entire spreadsheet at any time; doing so deletes the data in those sheets from your Google account.

• You can clear saved ML provider settings if you no longer want the add-on to use them.

• You can uninstall the add-on or revoke its permissions in your Google Account to stop further access and processing.

• You may request deletion or raise questions using the contact method in the Privacy Policy.

YouTube, Google, and Provider Policies

Your use must comply with:

YouTube Terms of Service and YouTube API Services Terms and Policies, including the Limited Use policy.

Google Workspace Marketplace policies.

The terms and policies of any optional ML provider you choose to use.

If those policies change, you must follow the updated versions.

Service Changes & Availability

Features may change, update automatically, pause, or end.

Availability can be affected by API quotas, rate limits, Google changes, YouTube changes, optional ML provider changes, platform outages, or provider outages.

No Warranties

The add-on and its materials are provided “as is.”

No warranties are given, including for accuracy, reliability, availability, security, completeness, sentiment quality, translation quality, chart quality, or fitness for a particular purpose.

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the developer is not responsible for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenues, data, access, provider credits, API quota, or business opportunities arising from your use of—or inability to use—the add-on or its materials.

Where liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to the amount you paid, if any, for the add-on.

Consumer Rights (Global Users)

Nothing in these Terms limits rights that cannot be waived under laws that apply to you.

If a rule in these Terms conflicts with a mandatory local consumer protection rule, the local rule applies only to the extent required, and the rest of these Terms still apply.

Intellectual Property & Takedowns

All rights are reserved.

If you believe content infringes your rights, contact the developer using the details on the Privacy Policy page and include enough information to locate and assess the material.

The developer may disable or remove content while reviewing.

Translations

The English version controls if there is a conflict.

Updates to These Terms

These Terms may be updated at any time.

If you continue using the add-on after changes take effect, you accept the updated Terms.

Governing Law

These Terms are governed by U.S. law, unless a mandatory law in your country says otherwise.

If any part conflicts with mandatory law in your country, it will be adjusted only as needed to comply, and the rest remains in effect.

Privacy Policy — Content Curator for YouTube™ (Google Sheets add-on)

Last updated: May 2026

Summary

The developer does not sell your personal information.

The developer does not send your spreadsheet data, YouTube outputs, comments, logs, charts, or generated sheets to developer-controlled servers.

The add-on runs in your Google account context.

If you choose “Use ML,” selected text may be sent directly to the ML provider you selected and configured. That provider processes the data under its own terms and privacy policy.

If this policy changes in a way that affects collection or processing, this notice will be updated before the new processing begins.

What the add-on does with your data

The add-on processes YouTube API responses, video metadata, comment data, configuration inputs, language selections, sentiment settings, and run state so it can build results in your Google Sheet.

The add-on writes results only to your spreadsheet, such as DONE sheets, IN PROGRESS sheets, STOPPED sheets, log sheets, graph/helper sheets, language helper sheets, cache/state sheets, and LastState-style recovery sheets.

The add-on may store run state in Google-managed properties so it can resume safely, avoid duplicate work, remember settings, restore state, and avoid writing to the wrong sheet.

No data is sent to developer-controlled servers.

Permissions

The add-on requests only the Google and YouTube permissions needed to deliver its features.

You can revoke access at any time in your Google Account permissions.

How to uninstall: Open a Google file → Extensions → Add-ons → Manage add-ons → find Content Curator for YouTube™ → ⋮ → Uninstall.

Data stored in Google Sheets and Google Properties

The add-on may store output data and operational data in your spreadsheet, including results, logs, charts, helper sheets, state sheets, and cache sheets.

The add-on may use ScriptProperties, DocumentProperties, and UserProperties to store add-on state, such as run progress, sheet bindings, path signatures, cache proofs, startup checks, selected ML provider, provider settings, pending translation selections, and Quick Start display count.

These values are used to keep the add-on working, resume safely, reduce repeated setup, and protect cross-channel or cross-sheet runs.

Optional ML processing

ML processing is optional.

If C12 is blank or set to “Don’t use ML,” the add-on uses built-in non-ML logic.

If C12 is set to “Use ML,” the add-on may send selected comment text or related text directly to the ML provider you selected and configured.

Supported provider options may include Google Natural Language, Azure Text Analytics and AWS Comprehend.

The developer does not control those providers’ processing, retention, security, pricing, quotas, or privacy practices.

Review the provider’s terms and privacy policy before enabling that provider.

Provider settings and API keys

If you configure an ML provider, the add-on may save provider settings in Google DocumentProperties tied to the spreadsheet.

Those settings may include provider name, endpoint, region, API key, or other configuration values needed to call the provider.

You are responsible for securing your spreadsheet, limiting who can access it, managing provider keys, monitoring provider usage, and revoking keys when needed.

Data collection by the developer

The developer does not collect your spreadsheet data, YouTube outputs, comments, provider keys, ML results, generated sheets, or add-on logs on developer-controlled servers.

The developer may receive information only if you choose to send it through a support form, email, feedback form, or other contact method.

Sharing data with third parties

The developer does not sell your data.

The developer does not share your spreadsheet data with third parties from developer-controlled servers.

If you enable optional ML, the add-on sends selected text directly from the add-on to the ML provider you selected and configured.

External providers, Google services, YouTube services, and public documentation/support pages operate under their own terms and privacy policies.

Cookies

No cookies are used by the add-on itself.

Public documentation or support pages may use cookies or similar technologies if enabled by the website or analytics tools used on those pages.

Security

Because the add-on runs in your Google account context, your data remains mainly inside Google services and your spreadsheet unless you enable optional ML provider processing.

Keep your Google account, spreadsheet, sharing settings, and provider API keys secure.

Use strong passwords, 2-step verification, limited sharing, and provider key rotation where appropriate.

Retention

Data written to your spreadsheet stays there until you delete it.

Google Properties used by the add-on may remain until they are reset, cleared by the add-on, removed by uninstall/revocation where applicable, or no longer needed for the add-on’s operation.

Optional ML providers may retain data according to their own policies.

The developer does not keep a separate developer-side copy of your spreadsheet data or add-on outputs.

External links

Documentation, support pages, Quick Start videos, ML setup videos, templates, and provider-related pages may link to external sites for convenience.

Those external sites are not controlled by the add-on and may have their own terms, privacy policies, cookies, analytics, or data practices.

Analytics (documentation/website only)

Google Analytics may be enabled only on public documentation/support pages to understand high-level, aggregated website usage, such as page views and general engagement trends.

No personal data from the add-on or your spreadsheets is sent to website analytics by the add-on.

Compliance with YouTube, Google, and Provider Policies

Your use must follow YouTube Terms of Service, YouTube API Services Terms and Policies, including the Limited Use policy, Google Workspace policies, and any optional ML provider terms that apply to the provider you choose.

Your choices

• Uninstall or revoke permissions: You can uninstall the add-on or revoke its access in your Google Account at any time.

• Delete data in Sheets: Deleting any add-on-created sheet or the entire spreadsheet deletes the data contained there from your Google account.

• Clear ML settings: You can clear saved ML provider settings or revoke provider API keys if you no longer want optional ML processing.

• Do not use ML: Leave C12 blank or select “Don’t use ML” to avoid optional ML provider processing.

• Questions or requests: Use the contact method provided on the documentation/support page.

Children’s privacy

This add-on is not directed to children and should not be used by individuals where applicable law requires parental consent without such consent.

Global users

This add-on may be used by people in different countries.

Your local privacy and consumer rights may apply depending on where you live.

Nothing in this policy is intended to reduce rights that cannot be waived under laws that apply to you.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes—for example, if the developer begins collecting, storing, sharing, or using information in a new way—this page will be updated before the new processing takes effect.

Translations

Translations are provided for convenience.

The English version controls if there is a conflict.
