OYO-View requests the following OAuth 2.0 scopes from your Google account when you sign in:
| Scope | What It Allows | Why We Need It |
|---|---|---|
| drive.readonly | Read-only access to files and folders in your Google Drive | To list your Drive folders so you can select one, and to stream image and video files from that folder to your FireTV display |
| View your Google account email address | To display your signed-in email address on the app settings screen so you can confirm which Google account is active | |
| profile | View your basic Google profile information | To retrieve the basic account information associated with the signed-in Google account |
What we access from Google Drive specifically:
What we do NOT access:
OYO-View uses the data it accesses exclusively to provide the core slideshow functionality. Specifically:
Used only to populate the folder selection dropdown in the app settings screen. Folder names and IDs are queried on demand when you tap "Choose Folder" and are never cached beyond the active session.
Streamed directly from Google Drive to the FireTV display using your access token. Files are temporarily cached on the device by the Glide image library for performance (avoiding repeated downloads during the same session). This cache is local to your FireTV device only and is cleared when the app is uninstalled.
Retrieved once at sign-in and stored locally on your FireTV device in the app's private SharedPreferences storage. Displayed in the app settings screen only. Never transmitted to any OYO-View server.
We do not use your data for any of the following purposes:
Our use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
OYO-View does not sell, rent, trade, or share your Google user data with any third parties.
The app communicates exclusively with the following Google-owned API endpoints as part of the authentication and content delivery process:
| Service | Domain | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Google OAuth 2.0 | accounts.google.com | Authenticating your Google account sign-in |
| Google OAuth Token | oauth2.googleapis.com | Exchanging authorisation code for access token |
| Google Drive API v3 | www.googleapis.com/drive/v3 | Listing your folders and streaming your media files |
| Google UserInfo API | www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v2 | Retrieving your email address after sign-in |
All communication with Google APIs occurs directly between the app on your FireTV device and Google's servers. No data passes through any OYO-View-operated server or infrastructure.
We do not share your data with:
In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of OYO-View, users will be notified before any personal data is transferred or becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
OYO-View stores data only locally on your FireTV device. No user data is stored on any OYO-View server, cloud service, or external database.
Data stored locally on your device:
| Data Item | Storage Location | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Google OAuth access token | Android SharedPreferences (private, encrypted) | Authenticate Drive API requests without requiring re-login |
| Your email address | Android SharedPreferences (private) | Display in settings screen to confirm signed-in account |
| Selected folder ID & name | Android SharedPreferences (private) | Remember your chosen Drive folder between app sessions |
| Slideshow preferences | Android SharedPreferences (private) | Remember your interval, transition, quality, and audio settings |
| Temporary image cache | Android app cache directory (local) | Avoid re-downloading images during the same slideshow session |
Security measures in place:
Retention period: Data stored locally on your device is retained until you either sign out of the app or uninstall it. We do not retain any user data on external servers — there is no server-side data to delete.
You have full control over your data. The following actions each result in immediate deletion:
Data deletion request: To request confirmation of data deletion or assistance with the process, contact us at Yogurtoyo@gmail.com. We will respond within 48 hours.
Temporary image cache: Media files temporarily cached by the app during a slideshow session are stored only in the app's local cache directory. This cache is automatically cleared by Android when storage space is needed and is fully removed upon app uninstall.
