Summary
DanLapTrinh Ads Manager is a private, single-operator command-line tool. It does not collect data from members of the public, it has no user accounts, and it does not transfer Google user data to any third party. It accesses only the Google Ads data belonging to the operator who runs it.
What Google user data the application accesses
The application authenticates with a Google Cloud service account and requests a
single OAuth scope, https://www.googleapis.com/auth/adwords. Using that
scope it accesses the following data from the Google Ads account that the operator
has explicitly granted it permission to manage:
- The manager account's customer ID, descriptive name, currency code and time zone.
- The list of client accounts under that manager account, including their customer IDs, descriptive names, currency codes, time zones and status.
The application does not request access to Gmail, Google Drive, Google Contacts, location data, or any other Google service. It does not read advertising performance data of any party other than the operator's own accounts.
How the data is used
Data retrieved from the Google Ads API is used for one purpose only: to display the current state of the operator's manager account and to create new client accounts under it at the operator's instruction. The data is not used for profiling, advertising, analytics, training machine learning models, or any purpose unrelated to administering the operator's own Google Ads accounts.
How the data is stored
The application runs locally on the operator's own computer and has no server component and no database. Data received from the Google Ads API is held in memory for the duration of a single run and printed to the terminal. When the operator creates accounts, the application writes a local CSV file recording the names and customer IDs it created, so that the operator has a record of the operation. That file remains on the operator's own computer and is not uploaded anywhere.
The service account key used for authentication is stored as a file on the operator's computer, outside any source code repository, and is never transmitted to any destination other than Google's own authentication servers.
How the data is shared
Google user data accessed by this application is not sold, rented, published, or disclosed to any third party. There are no third-party analytics services, no advertising networks, and no external logging services integrated into the application. The only external service it communicates with is the Google Ads API itself.
Data retention and deletion
Because the application stores no data on any server, there is nothing for it to retain. The operator can delete the local CSV records and the service account key file at any time. Access can be revoked immediately by removing the service account from the Google Ads account under Admin › Access and security, or by deleting the service account in the Google Cloud console.
Compliance
The application's use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
