Privacy Policy
Effective: August 8, 2026 · Compounded (compounded.tv), an Agate Street Studios production
Who we are
Compounded is a documentary studio. We publish films and Shorts on our YouTube channel (youtube.com/@compoundedtv) and operate this website. Contact: hello@compounded.tv.
What we collect on this site
- Newsletter signups: your email address, if you subscribe. It is stored with our email provider (Kit) and used only to send you our newsletter and episode announcements.
- Basic analytics: aggregate, non-identifying page statistics via our hosting provider (Cloudflare). We do not run advertising trackers.
Use of YouTube API Services
Compounded's internal publishing tools use YouTube API Services to manage our own YouTube channel: uploading our own finished videos as private or unlisted drafts, scheduling their publication, setting thumbnails and metadata, and verifying the published state of our own content.
- By using our website and our YouTube channel, you also agree to the YouTube Terms of Service.
- Google's handling of data is described in the Google Privacy Policy.
- Our API client is first-party only. It accesses and manages only content and metadata belonging to channels we own. It does not access, collect, or store any YouTube user data from viewers or third parties — no watch history, no personal information, no third-party channel data.
- The only Google user data our systems hold are OAuth tokens authorizing management of our own channels. These are stored encrypted in a private secrets manager, are never shared, and are used solely for the channel-management functions described above.
- Anyone who has granted our tools access to a Google account can revoke that access at any time via the Google security settings page.
Data retention and deletion
- Newsletter emails are kept until you unsubscribe (one click in any email) or request deletion.
- Stored OAuth authorizations are deleted when a channel is disconnected or on request.
- To request deletion of any data we hold about you, email hello@compounded.tv; we honor deletion requests within 30 days.
Sharing
We do not sell or share personal data. Service providers we rely on (Cloudflare hosting, Kit email) process data only to provide their services to us.
Changes
We will post any changes to this policy on this page with a new effective date.
