Welcome to Penny ("we," "our," or "us"). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This privacy policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our influencer outreach platform and services.

Google API Data Use (Gmail)
If you connect a Gmail account, we use Google APIs to help you draft and send outreach emails you create in Penny. We do not request Google API scopes to read your inbox or view existing email messages.

- We use Gmail only to create drafts and/or send messages you initiate.
- You can disconnect Gmail at any time, which revokes access and stops queued sends.
Penny’s use and transfer to any other app of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements: https:\/\/developers.google.com/terms/api-services-user-data-policy
