Privacy Policy

Effective date: October 29, 2026

PatchKNO Stats (“the app”) is a private tool used only by Kevin “Patch” Ostenson to manage his own YouTube channel, PatchKNO Gaming. It is not offered to other users.

What the app accesses

The app uses YouTube API Services, specifically the YouTube Data API and the YouTube Analytics API, with these scopes:

• youtube.force-ssl – to update the owner's own videos' titles, descriptions and other metadata, manage playlists, and post and manage comments on the owner's own channel.
• youtube.readonly – to read the owner's channel, videos, playlists and comments.
• yt-analytics.readonly – to read the owner's channel analytics (views, watch time, subscribers and similar reports).

This data is used only to manage the PatchKNO Gaming channel. The app does not access any other person's account.

Sharing

No data is sold, rented or shared with third parties. Data is not used for advertising.

Storage and security

OAuth tokens and any retrieved data are stored privately on systems controlled by the owner and are not published. Data is kept only as long as needed to manage the channel.

Revoking access

Access can be revoked at any time at myaccount.google.com/permissions. Revoking access stops the app from reaching the account.

YouTube and Google

By using this app you are also bound by the YouTube Terms of Service. Data obtained through YouTube API Services is also subject to the Google Privacy Policy.

Changes

If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
