3. How Google API Data Is Protected
- Transit encryption: All API calls are made over HTTPS/TLS.
- Token isolation: OAuth tokens are stored per-user. No cross-user token access is possible architecturally.
- No third-party sharing: Data from Google APIs is not shared with advertising networks, analytics platforms, or data brokers.
- No AI training: Customer review text is used only to generate replies within your session. It is not used to train any AI model.
- Log hygiene: Google API responses containing user data are not written to application logs in plaintext.
