Privacy Policy

Effective Date: January 5, 2025

At ERPPAL Mind (“we,” “our,” or “us”), we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and handle your information when you use our application, including when accessing Google Drive in read-only mode.

Information We Collect

Our application accesses your Google Drive files in read-only mode to support the following functionalities:

  1. Embedding Documents:
    • Allowing users to embed Google Drive files (e.g., PDFs, spreadsheets, and presentations) directly into the ERPPAL Mind platform to streamline work processes.
  2. Centralized Management:
    • Displaying and organizing relevant documents within the app to improve file accessibility, collaboration, and productivity.

Why We Need This Access

We require access to your Google Drive in read-only mode for several key reasons that are crucial to the functionality of the ERPPAL Mind platform. This access ensures that we can offer users a seamless and efficient experience while interacting with their documents. The primary reasons we need this access are as follows:

  1. Retrieve File Metadata
    • File Identification and Listing: Access to file metadata (such as file name, type, and location) enables us to generate an accurate list of documents stored in your Google Drive. This list is essential for users to easily find and organize the documents they wish to embed into the ERPPAL Mind platform. The metadata allows for smooth sorting, filtering, and search capabilities within the application, ensuring that users can efficiently access and manage their files.
  2. Display the Contents of Files Without Modifications
    • Preview and Read-Only Access: We use this access to display a preview or read-only view of your documents, such as PDFs, spreadsheets, presentations, and text files. This ensures that users can view their files directly within the ERPPAL Mind platform without making any changes to the original content stored on Google Drive. The ability to preview these files in their native formats (e.g., PDFs or Google Docs) is crucial for helping users assess, review, or reference their content during their workflows without altering or deleting any data.
  3. Facilitate Better Organization and Centralized Management
    • Efficient File Organization: The read-only access to your Google Drive enables us to efficiently organize and display your documents within the ERPPAL Mind platform. This allows users to group, tag, or categorize files in a way that enhances accessibility and collaboration. Centralizing documents within the platform makes it easier for both individual users and teams to manage their projects, ensuring that all necessary resources are accessible in one location without the need to manually search for files across multiple platforms.
  4. Seamless Workflow Integration
    • Smooth User Experience Across Devices: By accessing files from Google Drive, users can easily integrate their documents into their workflow, ensuring that all necessary content is at their fingertips. This read-only access ensures that files are always up-to-date, and any changes made on Google Drive are immediately reflected in the ERPPAL Mind platform, creating a seamless experience for users as they transition between devices and platforms.
  5. Support Collaboration and File Sharing
    • Enhanced Team Collaboration: For users working in teams, our app enables collaboration by allowing files to be shared, viewed, and referenced by different users. The ability to organize and display Google Drive files within the ERPPAL Mind platform enhances collaboration by providing easy access to shared documents, enabling teams to stay aligned and productive. This is particularly important for projects that involve multiple stakeholders, as it allows for smooth collaboration and ensures that everyone has access to the most recent and relevant documents.
