Encryption in Transit: All communications between Starnet, your browser, and Google API Services are strictly encrypted using industry-standard Transport Layer Security (HTTPS / TLS).
Encryption at Rest: Any sensitive tokens, account names, or configurations processed by our platform are securely isolated and encrypted at rest utilizing Google Cloud Platform’s default AES-256 encryption standards.
Access Control: Internal access to our Google Cloud environment is strictly limited via robust Identity and Access Management (IAM) controls, ensuring only authorized system configurations can interact with API tokens.

5. COMPLIANCE WITH GOOGLE “LIMITED USE” POLICY

Starnet’s use and transfer of information received from Google APIs to any other app will strictly adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements.

No Data Selling or Sharing: We do not sell, rent, lease, or share your Google user data with any third-party tools, external servers, or marketing agencies.
No Advertising Use: Your Google user data is never used to serve advertisements, profile users, or target promotional material.
No AI Training: We strictly do not use your Google Ads data, YouTube data, or uploaded media assets to train, retrain, or fine-tune artificial intelligence (AI) or machine learning (ML) models.

If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this privacy notice.
