Your data stays with you.

Your chart data and presentations stay in Google Slides and Google Sheets โ€” we provide the charting layer on top. For full details on data handling, see our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use.

You control what we access

Chartbuddy only accesses the Google Slides files you explicitly select - we never request broad access to your Google Drive.

  • Focused file access - We use Google's drive.file scope. Chartbuddy only sees the specific presentations you choose to work with, for example through the Google Picker when linking charts. Nothing else in your Drive is visible to us.
  • Easy revocation - You can revoke Chartbuddy's access to your files at any time through your Google account settings.

Secure by design

  • Minimal data handling โ€” Chart configuration and spreadsheet data are processed locally in your browser. With default managed storage, rendered chart images are temporarily transferred to our EU Google Cloud Storage for approximately two seconds during Slides insertion, then deleted. With bring-your-own infrastructure, chart images stay entirely within your Google Cloud environment.
  • Encrypted in transit - All communication between your browser, our servers, and Google services is encrypted using HTTPS/TLS.
  • OAuth 2.0 authentication - We use Google's secure OAuth 2.0 protocol. Your Google password is never shared with or stored by Chartbuddy.
  • Token management - Refresh tokens are stored encrypted at rest. Short-lived access tokens are used for all API interactions, following security best practices.
