TubeTopic (tubetopic.com) is a YouTube analytics service: a table of popular videos, trends and video ideas for your channel. The service is owned and operated by Oleksandr Lakhno. Contact: lakhno.mail@gmail.com.
2. Data we collect
- Account. Your email address, your name (if you provide it) and your password, stored only as an irreversible hash.

If you sign in with Google, we receive only basic profile information from Google: your Google account ID, email address and whether it is verified, your name and profile picture URL (scopes openid, email and profile). We have no access to your email, files, contacts, YouTube account or any other Google data.

- Technical data. IP address and browser information when you sign in, to protect your account; the days you visit the service; reports of technical errors on pages (page address and error text), to fix them.
- Payments. If you subscribe, payments are processed by Stripe. We do not receive or store your card details; we only keep your Stripe customer ID and subscription status.
3. How we use data
- to create your account and sign you in;
- to generate video ideas for your channels and apply plan limits;
- to send service emails: email confirmation, password reset, subscription notices;
- to protect the service from abuse and fix errors.
We do not sell your data, use it for advertising or share it with other companies for their own purposes.
4. Data received from Google
We use your Google profile data only to sign you in to TubeTopic and to contact you about your account. TubeTopic's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. You can revoke TubeTopic's access to your Google account at any time at myaccount.google.com/permissions.
5. YouTube

7. Cookies
We use only necessary cookies: to keep you signed in, to remember the interface language, and short-lived service cookies (on-page messages, protection of Google sign-in). There are no advertising or analytics cookies.
