2) Scope & Google API Services (Limited Use)

We use Google OAuth and the Google Ads API with the scope https://www.googleapis.com/auth/adwords to provide user-requested features (e.g., linking accounts, creating/updating campaigns, retrieving metrics). Our use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

• We access Google user data only to provide the features you request inside ADLINK.
• We do not sell Google user data or use it for advertising outside those features.
• Human access to Google user data is disabled by default and allowed only for support/security/legal obligations, with least privilege and logging.

3) Data we collect

• Account data: name, email, organization, role, login events.
• Google user data (Google Ads): customer IDs (CID/MCC), account hierarchy, campaign/ad group/asset metadata, and performance metrics necessary to operate features you request.
• Operational/billing data: balances, transactions, refunds, invoices (no payment card PAN stored on our servers).
• Technical data: IP address, device/browser info, and logs required for security and troubleshooting.

We collect data from you, from your Google account when you authorize access, and from your use of the service.

4) Purposes of use

• Authenticate users (OAuth) and link Google Ads accounts at your request.
• Display account structure and metrics; create/update campaigns and related entities you initiate.
• Operate the service, provide support, ensure security, prevent fraud/abuse, comply with legal obligations.
• Billing and communications related to the service.

5) Data sharing & disclosures (with whom, why, what)

We do not sell personal data. We share data only with the service providers below acting on our behalf under data processing terms, or when required by law or with your explicit consent.

Google user data sharing: We do not share Google user data with third parties except the processors above acting on our behalf, or as required by law or with your explicit consent.

• Network security: Cloudflare CDN/WAF, DDoS protection, rate limiting; firewalls; no public database exposure.

• Backups & continuity: automated encrypted backups; restore procedures tested periodically.

7) Retention & deletion

We retain account and operational data while your account is active and as required for legal, tax, or security purposes. Google user data is kept only as long as needed to provide the requested features.
