User Data Disclaimer

Plain-English explanation of what data ReachSheet collects and why.

In short: User data is only gathered as needed for the basic functionality of the add-on, in addition to usage data for analytics and quality assurance.

What Data Do We Access?

ReachSheet requests minimal permissions to do one thing well: help you find publicly available business emails inside Google Sheets™. Here's exactly what we access and why:

Data Type Why We Need It What We Do With It
Website URLs from your Sheet To know which public websites to review for contact information Processed temporarily in memory; deleted immediately after scanning
Public webpage content To locate business emails that organizations have voluntarily published Analyzed in real-time; never stored, logged, or shared
Google Account ID (OAuth) To authenticate you and authorize secure access to your Sheets Used only for session validation; not stored or tracked
Anonymized usage events Optional To improve performance, fix bugs, and understand feature usage Aggregated and anonymized; no personal or spreadsheet data included

What We Do vs. What We Don't

  • Process data temporarily in memory during your session

✗ We Don't

  • Sell, rent, or share your data with third parties
  • Store your spreadsheet contents or scanned webpage HTML
  • Access personal email addresses unless publicly listed in a business context
  • Track your identity, location, or browsing history outside the add-on
  • Use your data for advertising, profiling, or AI training
