Data from Google APIs
When you connect Google Calendar, Booked.so creates, updates, and deletes the calendar events for bookings made through Booked.so, and reads back the Google Meet link of those events. We do not read your other calendar events.
Booked.so’s use and transfer to any other app of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. The use of raw or derived user data received from Workspace APIs will adhere to the Google User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
We never use data received from Google APIs to develop, improve, or train generalized artificial intelligence or machine-learning models, and we never send it to AI services.
Data from YouTube
Booked.so uses YouTube API Services. When you connect a YouTube channel, Booked.so:
- reads the channel’s name, handle, profile image, and subscriber count, to show which channel is connected;
- uploads the videos you schedule, with the title, description, tags, and privacy setting you choose;
- reads the view, like, and comment counts of the videos it published for you;
- reads the comments on your channel’s videos, including each commenter’s public name, profile image, and channel ID, so you can answer them from your Booked.so inbox, and posts the replies you write.
We store the connection’s access tokens encrypted and use this data only to provide these features to you. We share it with no one except YouTube itself, when we publish or reply on your behalf, and the providers that host our service. Google’s handling of your data is described in the Google Privacy Policy, and using YouTube through Booked.so is subject to the YouTube Terms of Service.
You can remove Booked.so’s access to your YouTube data at any time: disconnect the channel in Booked.so, which deletes our copy of your tokens, the comments we copied into your inbox, and the view and like counts we collected, and revokes our access at Google; or revoke it from Google’s security settings at https://security.google.com/settings/security/permissions. Questions or complaints about how we handle your data go to dev@booked.so.
4. Information sharing
We share information only as required to provide the service:
- Social platforms: when you publish content, the content and required metadata is transmitted to the relevant platform (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube, etc.)
- Service providers: infrastructure, email delivery, and analytics providers under data processing agreements
- Legal compliance: when required by law, subpoena, or court order
We do NOT sell your personal information to third parties.
5. Data retention
- Account data: retained while your account is active and for 90 days after termination
- Connected platform tokens: retained while connections are active; deleted immediately when you disconnect, and for Google services such as YouTube we also revoke our access at Google
- YouTube comments in your inbox, and the commenters’ names and images: kept for at most 30 days, and deleted as soon as you disconnect the channel. If you revoke our access from Google instead, everything we hold from that channel is deleted within 30 days
- Posted content metadata: retained for 12 months for analytics, then anonymized
- Billing records: 7 years (legal requirement)
6. Your rights

- Access the personal data we hold about you

- Export your content and connection data
