Privacy Policy

Autometon is built on a simple principle: your data belongs to you, not us. This policy explains what we collect, why, and how we protect it.

The short version: We collect only what we need to run Autometon. We never sell your data. Webhook payloads pass through our systems and land in your Google Sheet — we don't store them. You can delete your account and all associated data at any time.

1. Who We Are

Autometon ("we," "us," or "our") is a Google Sheets integration and automation platform. Our service allows you to connect 500+ apps to Google Sheets via webhooks, with data flowing directly into spreadsheets you own and control.

For privacy purposes, Autometon operates as the data controller for account and usage information, and as a data processor for webhook payload data you route through our platform.

2. What We Collect

Account information

When you create a Autometon account, we collect your name, email address, and a hashed password. If you authenticate via Google OAuth, we receive your name and email from Google — no password is stored on our end.

Billing information

Payment details (card numbers, billing address) are handled exclusively by our payment processor. We store only a billing record reference and your subscription tier — never raw card data.

Usage and pipeline data

We collect information about how you use Autometon: pipelines you create, integration sources you connect, field mappings you configure, and aggregate event counts. This is used to operate the service, display your dashboard, and improve reliability.

Log and technical data

Our servers automatically record IP addresses, browser user-agent strings, request timestamps, and error traces. These logs are retained for 30 days and used solely for security monitoring and debugging.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

We do not use your data to train machine learning models. We do not send marketing emails unless you have explicitly opted in. We do not profile you for advertising.

4. Data Storage and Webhook Payloads

This is the most important section for understanding how Autometon works.

Webhook payloads are not stored

When an app sends a webhook to Autometon, the payload is received, validated, transformed according to your field mappings, and written directly to your Google Sheet. We do not store webhook payload contents on our servers. Your data lives in your Google Drive — under your Google account, subject to Google's privacy policy, controlled entirely by you.

What we do store

We store metadata about webhook events: timestamps, pipeline IDs, source app identifiers, event type labels, and success/error status. This metadata is necessary to power your dashboard, support debugging, and enable webhook replay on paid plans. Metadata is retained for 90 days.

Google Sheets access

Autometon accesses your Google Sheets using a service account model. You grant write access by sharing a specific spreadsheet with our bot email address. We do not request access to your entire Google Drive or any other Google services. You can revoke this access at any time by removing the service account from your sheet's sharing settings.

5. Sharing and Third Parties

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We share data only in the following limited circumstances:

6. Cookies and Tracking

Autometon uses a small number of cookies strictly necessary to operate the service:

We do not use advertising cookies, tracking pixels, or third-party analytics that identify you individually. We may use aggregate, anonymized analytics (page view counts, feature usage rates) to improve the product.

7. Security

We take security seriously. Our practices include:

No system is perfectly secure. If you discover a vulnerability, please contact us at security@Autometon.io before disclosing it publicly.

8. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights under GDPR, CCPA, or other applicable laws. Regardless of location, we extend these rights to all users:

To exercise any right, email privacy@Autometon.io. We respond within 30 days.

9. Data Retention

We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active, plus a 30-day grace period after deletion to allow for account recovery. After that, all personal data is permanently deleted from our systems and backups. Anonymized aggregate usage statistics may be retained indefinitely.

Webhook event metadata is retained for 90 days from the event date, then automatically purged.

Server logs are retained for 30 days, then deleted.

10. Children's Privacy

Autometon is a business tool not intended for use by children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 16. If we learn we have inadvertently collected such information, we will delete it immediately. Contact us at privacy@Autometon.io if you believe we have done so.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will notify you by email (to the address on your account) and update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of Autometon after notification constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
