Privacy Policy

Last updated 25 May 2026

Who we are

Vidpulp (“Vidpulp”, “we”, “us”) is a service that monitors the YouTube playlists you choose, generates AI summaries of new videos, and emails them to you as a digest. We are a UK-based micro-business. This policy explains what personal data we collect, why, and what we do with it. If you have any questions, email us at support@vidpulp.com.

Information we collect

  • Account information: your email address and Google account identifier, provided when you sign in with Google.
  • YouTube data: the playlists you choose to track and metadata about the videos in them (titles, channels, publish dates), accessed with read-only permission.
  • Preferences & usage: settings such as digest frequency, and records of the summaries we generate for you.
  • Billing information: if you subscribe to Pro, our payment processor (Stripe) handles your card details. We never see or store your full card number.

How we use your information

  • To provide the service: monitor your playlists, fetch transcripts, and generate summaries.
  • To deliver your email digests at your chosen frequency.
  • To manage your subscription and process payments.
  • To operate, secure, debug, and improve the service.

We do not sell your personal data, and we do not use it for advertising.

Service providers we share data with

We rely on a small set of trusted processors to run Vidpulp. They only receive the data needed to perform their function:

  • Google / YouTube: authentication and read-only access to your playlists.
  • Supabase: authentication and database hosting for your account and content.
  • AI summarisation providers (e.g. Anthropic, OpenAI): we send video transcripts to generate summaries. Transcripts are processed to produce summaries and are not used by us to train models.
  • Stripe: payment processing for Pro subscriptions.
  • Resend: delivery of your email digests.
  • Vercel & Railway: application and background-processing hosting.

YouTube API Services

Vidpulp uses YouTube API Services. By using Vidpulp you also agree to the YouTube Terms of Service, and your use of data is subject to the Google Privacy Policy. You can revoke Vidpulp’s access to your Google account at any time via the Google security settings page.

Data retention

We keep your data for as long as your account is active. When you delete your account, we remove your playlists, preferences, and account record. Some information may persist briefly in backups or where we are required to retain it (for example, billing records for tax purposes).

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, export, or delete your personal data, and to object to or restrict certain processing. You can delete your account and data directly from your settings, or contact us at support@vidpulp.com to exercise any of these rights.

Cookies

We use essential cookies only, primarily to keep you signed in. We do not use advertising or third-party tracking cookies.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we’ll update the “last updated” date above. Questions? Email support@vidpulp.com.
