Google User Data & Limited Use

When you connect your Google account to Koovira (an optional feature), we access only the data you explicitly authorise on Google's official consent screen:

  • Basic profile & email (openid, email, profile) — to sign you in and identify your Koovira account.
  • Google Contacts, read-only (contacts.readonly) — to help you find and invite people you already know who are on Koovira. We never message your contacts automatically; sending an invite is always an explicit action you take.
  • Google Calendar events (calendar.events) — to add schedules, bookings, interviews and appointments you create in Koovira to your Google Calendar, and to update or cancel them when you change them in Koovira.

Koovira's use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. We do not sell Google user data, do not use it for advertising or to train generalised AI/ML models, and do not transfer it to third parties except as necessary to provide a feature you requested, to comply with applicable law, or with your explicit consent. Human access to Google user data is prohibited except with your consent, for security/abuse handling, or where required by law.

Disconnecting & Deleting Your Data

You are in full control of connected accounts and imported data:

  • Disconnect any time from Settings → Connected Apps & Permissions. Disconnecting immediately deletes the stored access and refresh tokens and stops all syncing.
  • Revoke from Google at any time via your Google Account permissions page.
  • Delete imported contacts from within Koovira.
  • Delete your Koovira account and all associated data from Settings → Security → Delete My Profile, or by writing to us at support@koovira.com.

Updated 2026-06-27 to reflect new platform features.

Connected accounts & external integrations

If you choose to connect an external account (for example Google or Instagram) for sign-in, contact import, calendar sync or content import, we request only the permissions needed for the feature you enabled, and we store the access tokens in encrypted form. You can disconnect any integration at any time; disconnecting stops further data exchange.

Content you import

When you import your own content from a connected social account, we process only the content from accounts you personally authorise, solely to re-create it in your chosen Koovira format. We do not access other people's accounts.

Automated processing & AI

We use automated systems, including a local-first AI assistant, for safety moderation, search, recommendations and support. Your personal data is not sold and is not sent to third-party model vendors for training. See our AI Transparency Policy for details.

Grievance & DPDP

In line with India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, you may exercise access, correction, and erasure rights, and contact our Grievance Officer using the details at the end of this policy.
