Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 6, 2026
TaskAlarm ("the add-on," "we," "us") is a Google Workspace add-on that sends you email reminders for your Google Tasks at times you choose. This policy explains what data the add-on accesses, why, how it is handled, and the choices you have. We built TaskAlarm to do one job well and to touch as little of your data as possible.
1Information we access
TaskAlarm accesses the following, only to provide the reminder feature:
- Your Google Tasks (read-only). The add-on reads your task lists and tasks so it can show them in the sidebar and know which have upcoming reminders. It does not create, edit, or delete your tasks.
- Your email address. Used to send reminder emails to you and to identify your account for plan management.
- Alert times you set. When you choose a reminder time for a task, that time is stored so the add-on can send the reminder.
2How we use it
Your data is used solely to operate TaskAlarm's reminder feature:
- To display your tasks in the add-on sidebar.
- To send you an email reminder at the time you set for a task.
- To determine whether your account is on the free plan or the Pro plan.
We do not use your data for advertising, we do not sell or rent it, and we do not share it with third parties except the service providers described below that are required for the add-on to function.
3Where data is stored
- Alert times and reminder state are stored using Google's own Properties Service, tied to your Google account.
- Plan status (whether you are a free or Pro user, matched by your email address) is stored in our database provider, Supabase, to verify your plan when the add-on runs.
- Payment information for Pro subscriptions is handled entirely by Stripe. TaskAlarm never sees or stores your card details.
4Service providers
TaskAlarm relies on a small number of providers to function. Each processes only the limited data needed for its role:
- Google Workspace / Google Tasks API — the platform the add-on runs on and the source of your tasks.
- Supabase — stores plan status keyed to your email address.
- Stripe — processes Pro subscription payments.
5Data retention
Alert times and reminder state persist while you use the add-on and are removed when you uninstall TaskAlarm or delete the associated tasks. Plan status is retained while your account exists so the add-on can verify your plan. You may request deletion of your plan record at any time by contacting us.
6Limited Use disclosure
TaskAlarm's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements. We only use Google user data to provide and improve the reminder feature, and we do not transfer it except as needed to run the service.
7Your choices
- You can remove any reminder by clearing its alert time in the sidebar.
- You can uninstall TaskAlarm at any time, which stops all access and removes stored reminder state.
- You can revoke the add-on's access to your Google account at myaccount.google.com/permissions.
- You can contact us to request deletion of your plan record.
8Children
TaskAlarm is not directed to children under 13 and does not knowingly collect data from them.
9Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by the "Last updated" date above and, where appropriate, communicated within the add-on.
