Privacy Policy

MarketBrief / Market Counterpoint — effective August 30, 2026

Who we are

MarketBrief is a research automation tool operated by its developer. It publishes filing-based research videos to the operator's own YouTube channel. Contact: marketcounterpoint@gmail.com.

Data we collect from visitors

None. This site is informational only: no accounts, no forms, no cookies set by the application, no analytics operated by us.

Google user data

MarketBrief uses the YouTube Data API for exactly one purpose: uploading videos that MarketBrief itself produced to the operator's own YouTube channel, using the youtube.upload authorization scope granted by the channel owner.

• What is accessed: the ability to upload videos to the authorizing user's channel. MarketBrief does not read channel analytics, subscriber lists, comments, or any other account data.
• What is stored: the OAuth refresh token granted by the channel owner, kept in a permission-restricted credential file on a private, access-controlled server owned by the operator. No other Google user data is stored.
• What is shared: nothing. Google user data is never sold, transferred, or disclosed to third parties. The uploaded videos themselves become visible according to the privacy setting chosen by the channel owner.
• Retention and deletion: the stored token persists only while uploads remain enabled. The channel owner can revoke access at any time at Google account permissions, which immediately invalidates the stored token; local copies are then deleted.

MarketBrief's use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
