Privacy Policy

This policy explains how MindCulture Hermes Commercial handles information when an authorised MindCulture user connects a Google account to the application.

Effective date: 4 September 2026

1. Scope of this policy

This policy applies to MindCulture Hermes Commercial, an internal operational application used by MindCulture to manage commercial research and pipeline information.

2. Google data the application can access

The application requests only the following Google OAuth scope:

This permission allows the application to create Google files and work with files created by the application or explicitly authorised for use with it. It does not grant blanket access to all files in the user's Google Drive.

3. How Google data is used

Google data accessed through the application is used only to provide the application's authorised operational functions, including creating, reading and updating the MindCulture commercial pipeline spreadsheet and related user-authorised file operations.

Google user data is not sold, used for advertising, or used to build advertising profiles.

4. Data sharing

MindCulture does not sell Google user data. Information is not shared with third parties except where necessary to operate the authorised service, comply with law, protect rights or security, or where the user has expressly authorised the disclosure.

5. Storage and security

Operational data is kept only to the extent reasonably necessary to provide the application's authorised functions. Authentication credentials and application data are handled within systems controlled by MindCulture and protected using access controls appropriate to the application's internal-use nature.

6. Retention and deletion

Authorised users may revoke the application's Google access at any time through their Google Account security settings. When access is revoked, the application can no longer use that authorisation to access Google files. Requests concerning deletion of data controlled by MindCulture may be sent to the contact address below.

7. Google API Services User Data Policy

MindCulture Hermes Commercial's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements where applicable.

8. Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated when the application's functionality, data handling or legal requirements change. The current version will remain available at this URL.
