This policy covers the ChatMakesGames stream and its tool "CMG Stream Tool", which uses the YouTube Data API.
The tool runs only on the ChatMakesGames channel's own computers. It manages the channel's own live broadcasts (start, check, end) and reads and posts messages in the channel's own live chat.
The tool does not collect email addresses, passwords, payment data or any data from viewers' own accounts.
Chat lines and vote counts are kept in local show logs for up to 30 days to check that the show worked, then deleted. Nothing is sold or shared with others.
The tool uses YouTube API Services. By watching or chatting you also agree to the YouTube Terms of Service. Google's privacy policy: policies.google.com/privacy. You can remove the tool's access to a Google account at myaccount.google.com/permissions.
