Upload Clip ยท Last updated 14 November 2026
Upload Clip ("the app") is a personal automation tool used by one person, the owner of a single YouTube channel, to upload videos to that channel. It does not offer accounts or sign-ups, and it is not used by anyone else.
What the app accesses
The app asks Google for one permission: https://www.googleapis.com/auth/youtube.upload, which lets it upload videos to the channel of the Google account that approves it. It uses this permission only to upload short videos, with their titles and descriptions, to the owner's channel.
The app does not read, collect or store any other Google user data. That means no email address, profile, contacts, viewing history, comments, analytics or data about any other YouTube user.
How data is stored
The OAuth tokens Google issues are kept in one file on the owner's private home server, readable only by its administrator. They are used only to call the YouTube Data API on the owner's behalf. They are never sold, shared or sent anywhere other than Google.
The app keeps a local list of which clips it has uploaded (clip ID, YouTube video ID, upload time) so it doesn't upload the same clip twice.
Video content
The uploaded videos are made from publicly available Twitch clips. Each one credits the streamer and links to their Twitch channel and the original clip. If you are a streamer and want a video removed, email the address below and it will be taken down.
Sharing
No user data is shared with third parties. The app sends data only to Google's YouTube Data API, which is the upload itself.
Google API Services User Data Policy
Upload Clip's use of information received from Google APIs follows the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. It is also governed by the YouTube Terms of Service and the Google Privacy Policy.
Revoking access
The channel owner can revoke the app's access at any time at myaccount.google.com/permissions. Revoking it makes the stored token useless, and the app stops uploading.
