Privacy Policy
This policy explains what information 1of10 ("the App"), operated by Mapture Media ("we", "us"), collects, how it is used, and how it is stored. The App is an internal research tool used by the Mapture Media team at outliers.mapturemedia.com. It shows how public YouTube videos are performing compared with other videos on the same channel.
YouTube API Services
The App uses YouTube API Services to fetch public information about YouTube channels and videos. By using the App you agree to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service. Google's handling of data is described in the Google Privacy Policy.
What information we collect
- Public YouTube data. Using an API key only, the App reads publicly available data: channel names and IDs, video IDs, titles, thumbnails, publish dates, durations and view, like and comment counts. This is the same data anyone can see on YouTube.
- No YouTube account access. The App does not use Google sign-in or OAuth. It never asks for, receives or stores access to anyone's YouTube or Google account, and it does not read private data.
- Sign-in cookie. When a team member signs in with the team password, the App sets one cookie (
auth_token) so they stay signed in. It is used only for access control. The App uses no advertising, analytics or tracking cookies. - Server logs. Our web server keeps standard technical logs (such as IP address, time and page requested) for security and troubleshooting.
How we use information
Public YouTube data is used only to display videos and calculate how each video performs against its channel's typical results, so our team can research content. We do not sell, rent or share any data with third parties, and we do not use it for advertising.
How we store information
Data is stored on our own server (DigitalOcean, London). The App keeps snapshots of public view counts so it can show how fast a video is gaining views. These snapshots are automatically deleted after 30 days. Other YouTube data is fetched fresh from the API when the page loads and is not kept beyond that period.
Deleting data and revoking access
Because the App does not connect to anyone's YouTube or Google account, there is no account access to revoke. If you are a channel owner and want data about your channel removed from the App, email myles@mapturemedia.com and we will delete it within 7 days. You can also review apps connected to your Google account at any time at Google security settings.
Children
The App is a business tool for our team and is not directed at children.
Changes to this policy
If we change this policy we will update the date at the top of this page.
