16. Google API User Data Policy & Gmail Access

Information We Collect via Google APIs

When you enable the email read-aloud feature, ListenX requests access to your Gmail mailbox via Google API Scopes (e.g., https://googleapis.com). We strictly access only the textual content of incoming emails (including the sender, subject, and message body) required to perform the text-to-speech (TTS) conversion.

How We Use Gmail Data

The Gmail data accessed by ListenX is used solely and exclusively to convert your email text into speech for hands-free listening. ListenX does not function as an email manager; our service will never modify, reply to, send, or delete any of your emails, nor will we access your contacts.

Data Retention & Storage

To protect your privacy, email text accessed via Gmail APIs is processed transiently. Text content is deleted immediately after the text-to-speech audio synthesis is completed and is never stored permanently on our servers.

Google Limited Use Disclosure

ListenX's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs to any other app will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. We will not use or share this Gmail data for serving advertisements, retargeting, market research, or training general artificial intelligence models.
