Lab backup is a private tool used by one person, its owner, to back up the owner's own files. It is not offered to anyone else.
The tool asks for the Google Drive permission drive.file. This lets it see and manage only the files and folders that the tool itself creates in the owner's Google Drive. It cannot read any other file in the Drive.
Backup data is encrypted on the owner's own computer before it is uploaded. Google Drive only stores the encrypted result. The data is used only to restore the owner's files.
No data is shared with, sold to or disclosed to anyone. The tool does not use Google user data for advertising, analytics or to train any model. The tool's use of information received from Google APIs follows the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
The owner can delete the backup folder from Google Drive at any time, or revoke the tool's access at myaccount.google.com/permissions.
