GoSiftly (“we,” “us,” “our”) is a Google Sheets–based tool that helps users clean and deduplicate lead lists. We respect your privacy and request only the minimum Google permissions needed for the product to work.
2) Data we access and process
GoSiftly runs entirely within your Google account. Depending on the feature you use, the app may:
- Read and write the active spreadsheet where GoSiftly is installed (e.g., import rows, write Results, Reset working tabs).
- Show in-sheet menus, dialogs, and sidebars to guide actions like Import, Export, Reset, and Import Detective.
- Create and manage app-created files in your Google Drive (e.g., CSV exports/backups, optional hash-only indexes for historical duplicate detection).
- Read the contents of app-created CSV files by calling the Google Drive API on `https://www.googleapis.com` (used only for files GoSiftly created, or files you explicitly select for GoSiftly to use).
GoSiftly does not browse or list your Drive and does not read other files it did not create (unless you explicitly select a file for GoSiftly).
3) Google permissions (OAuth scopes)
To provide the features above, GoSiftly requests these least-privilege scopes:
- All processing occurs within your Google account (Sheets/Drive).
- We do not collect or store your spreadsheet data on our servers.
- For historical duplicate detection, GoSiftly may store hash-only entries (e.g., truncated, normalized address hashes) in app-created Drive files. These hashes are used solely to detect prior duplicates and do not include names, emails, phone numbers, or other contact details.
5) What we don’t do
- No Drive folder browsing or bulk listing of your files.
- No full-access Sheets scope.
- No data sent to non-Google servers; no data sales or sharing with third parties.
- No analytics/advertising SDKs.
6) Security
- GoSiftly runs on Google Apps Script and uses Google APIs with OAuth.
- Access is governed by your Google OAuth consent and the least-privilege scopes listed above.
- You control the app-created files in your Drive and can delete them at any time.
7) Data retention and your controls
- App-created files (exports/backups/indexes) are stored in your Google Drive and remain under your control.
- You may delete any app-created files or remove GoSiftly from your spreadsheet at any time.
- You can revoke GoSiftly’s access in Google Account → Security → Third-party access.
8) Children’s privacy
GoSiftly is not intended for use by children under 18, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
9) Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. We will post updates here with a new effective date. Continued use of GoSiftly after changes indicates acceptance of the updated policy.
