Privacy Policy

Last updated: December 2025

OverDrive Tools (“OverDrive”, “we”, “us”, “our”) operates the website https://overdrive.tools (the “Service”).

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, process, and protect information, including Google Drive data, when you use the Service.

1. Scope of This Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to all users of the Service worldwide. By using the Service, you acknowledge that your information may be processed in accordance with this Policy regardless of your location.

2. Information We Access and Process

When you connect your Google account, OverDrive may access Google Drive data only after you explicitly authorize access through Google’s OAuth consent screen.

Depending on the features you use, this may include:

• Files and folders metadata (names, sizes, types, timestamps)
• Folder structure and hierarchy
• File ownership and sharing information
• File and folder contents only as required to perform user-requested actions
• Sharing permissions, including information necessary to add or remove user access

OverDrive does not access Google Drive data without your explicit action and authorization.

3. How We Use Google Drive Data

Google Drive data is used solely to provide the core functionality of the Service, including:

• Analyzing storage usage and file sizes
• Displaying folder structures and file organization
• Identifying large, duplicate, or unused files
• Moving or deleting files and folders only when initiated and confirmed by you
• Managing file and folder sharing permissions only upon your explicit request

OverDrive does not:

• Sell or rent Google Drive data
• Use Google Drive data for advertising or marketing
• Use Google Drive data for training machine learning or AI models
• Perform automated or scheduled destructive actions without user interaction

4. Legal Basis for Processing

We process personal data and Google Drive data based on one or more of the following legal bases, as applicable:

• Your explicit consent
• Performance of a contract (providing the Service you request)
• Compliance with legal obligations

Where required by law, you may withdraw consent at any time.

5. Data Storage & Retention

• Google Drive data is primarily processed in real time to deliver the Service.
• We do not permanently store copies of your Google Drive files.
• Limited technical or operational data (such as connection status or task progress) may be temporarily stored to ensure functionality and reliability.

You may revoke OverDrive’s access to your Google account at any time via your Google Account settings.

6. Billing Information

If you choose to purchase paid features of the Service, limited billing-related information may be processed, such as your name, email address, billing status, and transaction identifiers.

Payments are processed by third-party payment providers. OverDrive does not store full credit card numbers or sensitive payment details.

Billing information is used solely for payment processing, account management, fraud prevention, and legal compliance.

7. Data Sharing

We do not share your Google Drive data with third parties.

We may share limited information with trusted service providers strictly for operating the Service (e.g. hosting, monitoring, payment processing). Such providers are authorized to process data only as necessary to perform their services.

8. International Data Transfers

Your information may be processed in countries other than your own. We take reasonable steps to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place in accordance with applicable data protection laws.

9. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights under applicable data protection laws, including the right to:

• Access your personal data
• Request correction or deletion
• Restrict or object to processing
• Withdraw consent where applicable

We extend these rights to all users as a baseline standard.

10. “Forget Me” & Data Deletion Requests

You may request deletion of user-related data processed by OverDrive at any time by using our “Forget Me” page:

https://overdrive.tools/resources/forget-me

Requests are handled in accordance with applicable laws and technical limitations.

11. Security

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect information. However, no system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The updated version will be published on this page with a revised “Last updated” date.
