Effective September 18, 2026
Alder Analytics is a private tool used by the owner of the YouTube channel Alder (youtube.com/@alderlw) to manage that one channel. It is not offered to the public and has no users other than the channel owner.
Using YouTube API Services, the tool reads and updates content on the Alder channel only: playlists, video titles and descriptions, channel page layout, comments on the channel's own videos, and the channel's own analytics.
The tool accesses only data belonging to the Alder channel, through the channel owner's own Google account authorization. It does not collect, store, or process personal information about any other person, viewer, or channel. Public comment text on the channel's videos is read so the owner can reply; it is not stored beyond the working session and is not shared with anyone.
Data retrieved from YouTube is kept only in temporary working files on the channel owner's own computer for the duration of a task, then discarded. No data is sold, shared, transferred, or made available to any third party. No advertising or analytics services are involved.
The tool's use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. The tool also uses YouTube API Services and is subject to the YouTube Terms of Service and the Google Privacy Policy. The channel owner can revoke the tool's access at any time from the Google security settings page.
