Google user data

How PebbleSEO uses Google user data

This page exists because Google requires it, and because you deserve the same answer.

Scope

What we request

The read only Search Console scope, https://www.googleapis.com/auth/webmasters.readonly. Read only, and nothing wider. We never request write access, because we never write to your Search Console.

Purpose

Why we need it

PebbleSEO exists to keep your Search Console performance data past the 16 months Google retains it. To do that, it has to read that data. There is no narrower scope that returns performance metrics.

What we read

Exactly what we read

Your list of verified properties, and the performance report: clicks, impressions, CTR and average position, by query, by page and by date.

Out of scope

What we never touch

We do not read or modify your sitemaps, your URL inspection data, your indexing settings or anything else in your account.

Storage

Where it goes

Into your own workspace in PebbleSEO, visible only to members of it.

Retention

How long we keep it

Until you delete it. That is the product.

Removal

How to remove it

Delete the property or the workspace inside PebbleSEO, and revoke PebbleSEO's access at https://myaccount.google.com/permissions at any time.

Limited Use

Limited Use

PebbleSEO's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

We do not transfer this data to third parties, we do not use it for advertising, we do not sell it, and no human reads it except where you ask us to for support.
