Privacy Policy
Effective Date: November 28, 2025
This Privacy Policy explains how the Components and Variables for Google Slides Add-on (“Add-on”) handles your information when you use it with Google Slides.
Information We Collect
- Google Account Data: The Add-on requires access to your Google Slides data to function. This includes reading and modifying presentation content, such as shapes, text, images, and other elements, to create and manage components and instances.
- Stored Data: The Add-on stores component definitions and instance tracking information in your Google Account’s user properties. This data includes element IDs, component names, creation dates, and relationships between master components and their instances.
- No Personal Information: The Add-on does not collect, store, or process personal information such as your name, email address, or other identifying details beyond what is necessary for Google Slides functionality.
How We Use Your Information
- To create and manage reusable components from your presentation elements.
- To track relationships between master components and their instances across slides.
- To synchronize visual properties (colors, borders, text formatting) between master components and instances.
- To store component data in your Google Account’s user properties for persistent access across sessions.
Data Sharing
- We do not share your data with third parties, except as required by Google’s APIs to operate within Google Slides.
- All data processing occurs within Google’s infrastructure, and no data is transferred to external servers.
Data Security
- We rely on Google’s security measures to protect your data within Google Slides.
- Component data is saved in Google’s user properties system, which is subject to Google’s access controls and security protocols.
Data Retention
- Component definitions and instance tracking data remain in your Google Account’s user properties until you manually delete them using the Add-on’s delete functionality or revoke access.
- We do not retain any data outside of your Google Account.
Your Rights
- You can delete any component and its tracking data at any time using the Add-on’s delete functionality.
- You can revoke the Add-on’s access to your Google Slides via your Google Account settings.
