Privacy
Effective July 16, 2026
Google and YouTube data
Watch Later Manager uses YouTube API Services and requests permission to view and manage your YouTube account. It accesses your authorized YouTube channel name, ID, and profile image; playlist names, IDs, descriptions, visibility, item counts, and order; and video IDs, titles, channel information, thumbnails, durations, and publication dates. The app uses this data only to display and manage your playlists and perform the create, rename, visibility, add, remove, reorder, move, and copy actions you explicitly request.
Storage and processing
Your Google OAuth access and refresh tokens are encrypted in a secure, HTTP-only cookie with a 30-day expiration that may be renewed while you actively use the app. Your browser sends that cookie to the app over HTTPS so the Vercel-hosted server can call Google on your behalf. Tokens are decrypted only in server memory and are unavailable to browser JavaScript. The app has no user database and does not persist your channel, playlist, or video data on its server.
Sharing
The app does not sell your Google user data, use it for advertising, or share it with other users. Data is transmitted only to Google and YouTube to fulfill your requests and to Vercel as the app’s hosting provider. Vercel may retain standard operational logs under its own policies.
Retention and deletion
Channel, playlist, and video data is fetched fresh from YouTube and retained only in your current browser page. Disconnecting YouTube asks Google to revoke the app’s authorization and deletes the encrypted session cookie and all app-held authorized data. You can also revoke access from your Google Account permissions or request deletion by contacting the address below.
Disconnecting or deleting data held by Watch Later Manager does not delete or change data stored by YouTube. Use YouTube or an authorized application’s explicit playlist controls to delete or modify data on YouTube.
Google policies
Use of information received from Google APIs follows the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements. Google’s handling of data is described in the Google Privacy Policy.
