AutoStreamer Privacy Policy

Last updated: 11/9/2026

AutoStreamer is a small private tool run by St. Philip’s Episcopal Church, Indianapolis, Indiana (“we”, “us”). It starts and stops our Sunday worship livestream on YouTube automatically. It is used only by the church, on one computer, with the church’s own YouTube channel. It is not offered to the public, and you do not need to sign in to anything to watch our services.

What AutoStreamer accesses

When the church’s administrator signs in with the church’s Google account, AutoStreamer asks for permission to manage that account’s YouTube channel (the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/youtube scope). It uses that permission only to:

  • read the name of the church’s YouTube channel, to confirm the sign-in works;

  • create and set up our weekly live broadcast, with its title and description;

  • connect the broadcast to the church’s livestream, and find the address our streaming software sends video to;

  • make the broadcast go live, and end it when the service is over.

AutoStreamer does not read, collect or store the personal information of viewers, subscribers or commenters. It does not read your Google account’s email, contacts, files or any other Google service.

What we store

The only information AutoStreamer keeps from Google is a sign-in token, stored in a private file on the church’s streaming computer so the program can start the broadcast without anyone present. It is not sent to anyone else, not published, and not included in logs or messages. We keep it only while the church uses AutoStreamer, and delete it when we stop.

Sharing

We do not sell, rent, share or transfer any data obtained from Google to anyone, and we do not use it for advertising.

Google API Services disclosure

AutoStreamer’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.

AutoStreamer uses YouTube API Services. By using it you are also agreeing to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service and the Google Privacy Policy.

Revoking access

The church’s administrator can withdraw AutoStreamer’s access at any time at https://myaccount.google.com/permissions by choosing AutoStreamer and selecting “Delete all connections”. After that, AutoStreamer can no longer reach the YouTube channel. You may also ask us to delete the stored sign-in token (see Contact).

Changes

If this policy changes we will update the date at the top of this page.
