Privacy Policy

Effective date: August 12, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how Hermes Personal Assistant ("the App"), a personal productivity application operated by Michael Miller ("we", "the developer"), accesses, uses, stores, and protects Google user data when you authorize the App to connect to your Google account.

1. What data the App accesses

With your explicit authorization via Google's OAuth consent screen, the App may access the following Google services connected to your Google account:

• Gmail — reading, searching, composing, and sending email
• Google Calendar — viewing, creating, and managing calendar events
• Google Drive — searching, viewing, uploading, and downloading files
• Google Docs and Google Sheets — reading and editing documents and spreadsheets
• Google Contacts — reading contact names and email addresses

The App accesses only the data necessary to perform the specific task you request.

2. How the App uses your data

The App uses your Google user data solely to provide the personal productivity features you request — for example, summarizing your email, drafting replies for your approval, checking your calendar, or retrieving files from Drive.

In accordance with Google's API Services User Data Policy and Limited Use requirements, the App will not:

• use your data for advertising purposes;
• sell or transfer your data to any third party;
• use your data to build user profiles or for analytics unrelated to the requested feature;
• use your data for training machine learning models made available to other users or third parties.

3. Where your data is stored

The App runs on hardware under the developer's personal control. Data retrieved from Google services is processed and stored locally on that equipment solely to fulfill your requests. It is not uploaded to third-party storage services, and it is not shared with any other company, organization, or individual.

4. Data sharing and disclosure

The App does not share your Google user data with any third party, except:

• with your explicit instruction (for example, when you ask the App to send an email to a specific recipient); or
• when required by applicable law.

5. Data retention and deletion

• Email and calendar actions are performed in your own Google account; the resulting data remains under your control at all times via your Google account.
• Local working copies of retrieved data are retained only as long as needed for the task at hand and are deleted when no longer required.
• You may request deletion of any locally stored data at any time by contacting us at the address below.

6. Security

Access to your Google account is performed through Google's OAuth 2.0 framework using credentials you authorize. Credentials are stored securely on the developer's personal hardware and are never shared. The App transmits data to Google services over encrypted connections (HTTPS/TLS).

7. Revoking access

You can revoke the App's access to your Google account at any time:

1. Go to myaccount.google.com/permissions
2. Find Hermes Personal Assistant in the list of third-party apps
3. Select Remove access

Revoking access stops all future data access immediately.

8. Children's privacy

The App is intended for personal use by its owner and is not directed at children under 13.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date.
