PPCMavens - Google API Credentials Usage Policy

1. Introduction PPCMavens ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to ensuring the responsible use of Google API credentials while providing advanced advertising automation and management services. This policy outlines how we collect, store, and use Google Ads API credentials to ensure security, compliance, and transparency. 2. Data Collection & Use We use Google Ads API credentials solely for the following purposes: Managing multiple Google Ads accounts in one platform. Automating ad creation, campaign monitoring, and performance tracking. Generating Google Shopping feeds and managing ad copies. Ensuring compliance with Google Ads policies and best practices. 3. Data Security & Storage To protect your Google Ads credentials and account data, we implement the following security measures: OAuth 2.0 Authentication: We use Google's OAuth authentication flow to securely access accounts. No Plaintext Storage: API credentials (Client ID, Client Secret, Developer Token) are encrypted using AES-256 encryption. Role-Based Access: Only authorized personnel have access to stored credentials. Regular Security Audits: We conduct periodic security checks to prevent unauthorized access. 4. User Consent & Authorization We obtain explicit user consent before accessing Google Ads accounts. Users can revoke API access at any time via Google Account Permissions. We do not collect or store user credentials manually (e.g., passwords). 5. Compliance with Google API Policies PPCMavens strictly follows Google's API Terms of Service and Google Ads API policies. We do not engage in activities that violate Google’s guidelines, such as: Circumventing Google's advertising policies. Automating bulk account creation. Scraping or misusing API data. 6. Data Retention & Deletion Users can request data deletion at any time via their PPCMavens account settings. We automatically delete inactive API credentials after 90 days of inactivity. Upon request, we permanently delete all stored credentials within 7 business days. 7. Third-Party Sharing & Confidentiality We do not sell, share, or disclose Google API credentials or user data to third parties. Data is only used within PPCMavens for legitimate business purposes. 8. Policy Updates We may update this policy periodically. Users will be notified via email or on PPCMavens.com before changes take effect. 9.
