Privacy Policy
Last updated: 11 October 2026
noirledger is a private desktop application used by its operator to manage the operator's own YouTube channels (NOIR LEDGER). This policy explains what data the app accesses through Google sign-in and what happens with it.
Who is responsible
Silas Nutz, trading as Mandavo Softwareentwicklung, Daimlerstraße 50, 74211 Leingarten, Germany – hello@mandavotech.com. Full details in the Legal Notice.
YouTube API Services
noirledger uses YouTube API Services. By authorising the app you are also subject to the Google Privacy Policy.
Data the app accesses
When a Google account is connected, noirledger can access the following for the YouTube channel selected during sign-in:
- Channel information: name, handle, description, banner, keywords, subscriber and video counts.
- Video information: title, description, tags, thumbnail, subtitles, privacy status, scheduled publishing time and processing status.
- Statistics and YouTube Analytics reports for the channel's own videos: views, watch time, likes, comments count, click-through rate, audience retention, traffic sources, search terms and viewer countries (aggregated; no individual viewers are identified).
- Public comments on the channel's own videos (comment text, like count, reply count).
The app does not access Gmail, Drive, contacts or any Google data outside YouTube.
How the data is used
- To set and update the metadata of the operator's own videos and channels.
- To evaluate how published videos perform and to improve future videos.
The data is not used for advertising, is not sold, and is not used to build profiles of viewers.
Storage
noirledger has no server. Sign-in tokens and downloaded statistics are stored in files on the operator's own computer. Statistics are kept as long as the corresponding project exists; sign-in tokens are kept until access is revoked or the token file is deleted.
Sharing
Data is not shared with third parties, with one exception: aggregated statistics and public comments on the operator's own videos may be processed with an AI assistant (Claude by Anthropic) to produce a written evaluation. Sign-in tokens are never passed on.
Revoking access and deleting data
- Access can be revoked at any time in the Google security settings: security.google.com/settings/security/permissions.
- To have stored data deleted, write to the contact address below. Stored statistics and tokens for the account are then removed from the operator's computer.
