Privacy policy
tellmewhai and the "tellmewhai uploader" tool. Effective 12 November 2026.
Who this covers
"tellmewhai uploader" is a private tool that the owner of the tellmewhai channel runs on their own computer. It uploads the channel's own videos to the channel's own YouTube and Instagram accounts. Nobody else signs in to it.
What the tool can access
- YouTube (through the YouTube API Services): permission to upload videos and set their thumbnails (
youtube.upload), and permission to read the status of the channel's own videos (youtube.readonly), so the tool can confirm that a new upload is private. - Instagram (through the Instagram Platform): permission to read the tellmewhai account's basic profile and to publish its own reels.
How the data is used
The tool uses these permissions only to upload tellmewhai videos, covers and captions that the owner has approved, and to check their upload status. It does not read, collect or store information about viewers, followers, commenters or any other person. It does not sell, share or transfer data to anyone, and it does not use data for advertising.
Storage and security
Sign-in tokens are stored only on the owner's computer, encrypted with the Windows data protection system. They are never written to the tool's code or records. Upload records keep file fingerprints (SHA-256 hashes), dates and the platform video IDs.
This website
This site uses no cookies, no analytics and no tracking.
Revoking access
Access to the Google account can be removed at any time at Google security settings. Access to Instagram can be removed in Instagram under Settings, Website permissions, Apps and websites. When access is revoked, the owner deletes the stored token for that platform, and any data that the tool got through that access, within 7 days.
Google and YouTube
The tool uses YouTube API Services. By using it, the account owner agrees to the YouTube Terms of Service. Google's handling of data is described in the Google Privacy Policy.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version is posted on this page with a new effective date.
