This notice describes the SuperBeaks Shorts production tool operated by SuperBeaks for its own wildlife channels. It is not a public account-management service.<\/p>\n<h2>Information and purpose<\/h2>\n<p>With the channel owner&#8217;s Google authorization, the tool accesses the SuperBeaks channel identifier, video metadata, upload and processing status, privacy status, and playlists. It uploads selected nest-camera clips as private review drafts and organizes approved channel content. OAuth tokens allow the authorized workflow to reconnect without storing a Google password.<\/p>\n<p>The separate SuperBeaks nest-sightings workflow reads YouTube live chat to identify reported wildlife events. The Shorts tool uses minimal approved event references and timestamps to suggest matching clips. Original chat text and author identifiers are not copied into the Shorts production tool. A human confirms event associations before a public link appears.<\/p>\n<h2>Storage and sharing<\/h2>\n<p>Production files and authorization tokens are stored on SuperBeaks-controlled systems with restricted access. Video and associated metadata are sent to YouTube for hosting. Minimal clip metadata is sent to the SuperBeaks website for review and approved sightings links. Local bird detection does not send footage to an external AI service. Google user data is not sold, used for advertising, or used to train general-purpose AI models.<\/p>\n<h2>Retention and control<\/h2>\n<p>Completed or held local source copies are eligible for cleanup after 48 hours; unfinished jobs may retain their source until resolved. Original camera recordings have separate storage retention. YouTube uploads remain until removed by the channel owner. The review queue includes recent jobs for up to 14 days. Chat-derived source records in the sightings system expire after 29 days. Authorization tokens remain until revoked or removed.<\/p>\n<p>The channel owner can revoke access through <a href=\"https:\/\/myaccount.google.com\/connections\">Google Account connections<\/a>. Revocation stops future authorized API access; it does not delete previously uploaded YouTube videos.
