GDriveUpload

A private Google Drive synchronisation application operated by Henrik Binggl.

Purpose of this application

GDriveUpload is a private, personal application whose sole purpose is to synchronise the owner's own Google Drive files to his own private storage. It signs the owner in with Google using OAuth 2.0, reads the files in his Google Drive, and copies selected folders to a local server the owner controls (using the rclone tool).

GDriveUpload is used exclusively by its owner and his single Google account. It is not offered to the public, has no other users, is not commercial, and does not display advertising. It accesses only the owner's own account data and shares that data with no one.

What GDriveUpload does, step by step

Authenticates the owner with Google using OAuth 2.0.
Reads the file and folder list from the owner's own Google Drive.
Downloads and synchronises selected folders to the owner's own private storage via rclone.
Keeps the local copy up to date on a schedule for personal backup purposes.

Privacy Policy

Last updated: 11 July 2026

This privacy policy describes how GDriveUpload, hosted at cloud.binggl.net, handles data. Because the app is used only by its owner, the "user" and the "data owner" are the same person.

Information GDriveUpload access

When you sign in with Google, GDriveUpload may request access to your Google Drive and basic profile information, strictly as needed to provide their functionality. The scopes requested may include:

Google Drive — to read, download, and synchronise the owner's own files.
Basic profile / email — to identify the signed-in account.

How information is used

Data is used only to provide the requested functionality (authentication and file synchronisation) to the account owner.
Data is not sold, shared, or transferred to any third party.
Data is not used for advertising, profiling, or analytics.
No human other than the account owner reviews the data.

Data storage and retention

Synchronised files are stored on the owner's own private infrastructure.
OAuth tokens are stored securely in local configuration on the owner's own systems and are used only to maintain access to the owner's account.
Data is retained only as long as needed for synchronisation and can be deleted by the owner at any time.

Google API Services User Data Policy

GDriveUpload's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
