🔐 Why Are These Google Permissions Needed?
We’re committed to transparency and privacy. The app requests limited access to your Google Drive only for backing up your sermon notes.
What the app can do:
🔧 See/Create/Delete config files – to store your app settings
🗂 Access sermon notes files only – to save, update, or delete your own notes
📧 See your Google account & email – so your notes stay linked to the right account
🔗 Associate with your Google identity – to ensure seamless syncing
What the app will never do:
🚫 Access or read unrelated files in your Drive
🚫 Share your data with third parties
🚫 Read your emails or contacts
Your data remains secure and private, used solely to support your note-taking experience.
