Fidelioâ„¢ Privacy Policy
Effective Date: 03/06/2024
Thank you for choosing Fidelio, a Google Workspace app provided by The Innovation Ranch LLC. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about how your information is used. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding your information when you use Fidelio.
1. Information We Collect
a. Google Account Information
To provide core functionality, Fidelio requests the following Google Workspace permissions:
- Access to files in your Google Drive (drive.file)
- Access to Google Sheets, Docs, and Presentations for document processing
- Access to Google Apps Script for automating tasks and adding macros
- Basic profile information (name and email)
b. Document Processing
Fidelio processes your documents only as necessary to deliver its services:
- Document conversion: Microsoft Word files are converted to Google Docs format.
- Macro and script enhancements: Code may be added to Sheets, Docs, or Slides at your request.
Processing is ephemeral—documents and related data are processed in-memory or in secure temporary storage, and deleted immediately after the task completes, except for features like post-processing embedded videos or macro creation, where temporary jobs are held only until processing is finished.

We may collect anonymous usage data and user feedback to improve Fidelio's features and algorithms. This data does not include your files or their content, and cannot be used to identify you.

- No sharing of files: Your files and content are never shared with anyone, except as required to provide the requested service within your Google account.
- Legal compliance: We may disclose information only if required by law.
4. Data Retention and Security
- Ephemeral processing: Files and data are processed temporarily and deleted once tasks are completed, except for limited job-based features as described above.
- No long-term storage: We do not store your documents or their contents after processing.
