Google User Data

xSeek integrates with Google APIs to provide search performance insights. This section describes how we handle data received from Google APIs, in accordance with the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

What Google Data We Access

When you connect your Google account, we request read-only access to:

  • Google Search Console data — search queries, impressions, clicks, and average position for your verified properties
  • Google Analytics data — traffic metrics and page-level analytics for your connected properties
  • Basic profile information — your name and email address, used to identify your account

How We Use Google Data

Google user data is used solely to:

  • Display your search performance metrics within the xSeek dashboard
  • Correlate AI visibility data with organic search performance
  • Generate reports that combine AI citation data with search analytics

Sharing, Transfer & Disclosure of Google Data

We do not share, transfer, or disclose Google user data to any third parties, except in the following limited circumstances:

  • Infrastructure providers — Your data is stored on our hosting and database providers (e.g., Vercel, Neon) solely to operate the service. These providers act as data processors and do not have independent access to your Google data.
  • Legal obligations — We may disclose data if required by law, regulation, or valid legal process (e.g., a court order or subpoena).
  • With your explicit consent — We will not share your Google data with any other party unless you explicitly authorize it.

We do not sell Google user data. We do not use Google user data for advertising. We do not allow humans to read your Google data except where necessary to provide support you requested, to comply with legal obligations, or for security purposes such as investigating abuse.

Data Storage & Retention

Google user data is stored securely in our database with the same encryption and security measures applied to all user data. OAuth tokens are stored server-side and never exposed to the client. You can disconnect Google at any time from your Organization Settings, which revokes our access and deletes stored tokens.

Limited Use Disclosure

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.

xSeek'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.

What We Don't Do

  • We don't sell your data
  • We don't share individual website analytics with third parties
  • We don't use Google user data for advertising or any purpose unrelated to providing xSeek's features
  • We don't access your website content beyond what's publicly available

Data Retention

  • Account data: kept while your account is active
  • Analytics data: retained for 2 years
  • You can request deletion at any time

Your Rights

You can:

  • Access your data
  • Export your data
  • Delete your account and associated data
  • Opt out of marketing emails

Security

We use industry-standard encryption and security practices to protect your data. All data is transmitted over HTTPS and stored securely.

Cookies

We use essential cookies to keep you logged in and remember your preferences. We also use analytics cookies to understand how you use xSeek, which helps us improve the product.

Third-Party Services

We use the following categories of third-party service providers to operate xSeek. These providers act as data processors and only access data as necessary to perform their services:

  • Hosting & infrastructure — for running our application and storing data
  • Payment processing — for handling subscriptions and billing
  • Email delivery — for transactional and product update emails
  • Analytics — for understanding aggregate usage patterns

None of these providers receive your Google user data for their own independent use. Google user data is only processed by infrastructure providers as necessary to store and serve it back to you within xSeek.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. We'll notify you of significant changes via email or through the xSeek dashboard.
