YOUTUBE API SERVICES

This application uses YouTube API Services to allow users to export identified tracklists to YouTube playlists.

  • • User data accessed via YouTube API is used solely for the purpose of creating playlists as requested by the user.
  • • No Data Storage: We do not store any personal data obtained from Google beyond what is strictly necessary for authentication (JSON Web Token). Your YouTube account credentials are never stored on our servers. The only YouTube API operation performed is creating playlists in your account. We do not access, read, modify, or store any other YouTube data.
  • • Please refer to the Google Privacy Policy for information on how Google handles user data.
  • • Revocation: You can revoke PHASE: RADAR's access to your data at any time via the Google security settings page.

PUBLIC TRACK & ARTIST PAGES

PHASE: RADAR builds public pages (e.g. phase-radar.app/track/... and phase-radar.app/artist/...) for tracks and artists that have been identified frequently enough across scans. These pages are indexable by search engines.

  • • What is published: only the extracted track metadata (artist name, track title). Your uploaded screenshot is never published — it is processed and then deleted (see "Usage Data" above).
  • • How a track becomes public: automatically, once it has been identified enough times across all users' scans. There is no manual review or per-user approval step.
  • • Anonymous scans: this applies whether or not you were logged in when you scanned an image.
  • • You can request that a specific track or artist entry be removed by contacting us (see "Your Rights" below).
