Audrey Mail privacy policy

Last updated: October 9, 2026

Audrey Mail is a personal Mac email app that I build and use myself. This page explains what it does with the Google account data it can reach.

What the app accesses

When I sign in with Google, the app asks for permission to read and change my Gmail mail and labels, to send mail from my account, and to manage my Gmail filters. It uses these only to show my mail, let me write and send, and let me block senders by creating Gmail filters.

Where the data is kept

My mail is kept on my Mac only. The sign-in that lets the app reach Gmail is stored in the Mac's Keychain. I do not run any server for this app, so my mail and sign-in never pass through anything of mine except my own Mac.

What I do not do

Google API Services User Data Policy

The use of information received from Google Workspace scopes will adhere to the Google User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

Removing access

I can stop the app's access at any time at myaccount.google.com/permissions, and deleting the app removes its local copy of my mail and its Keychain sign-in.

Changes

If this changes, I will update this page and the date above.
