Family VHS Archive is a personal, noncommercial application used by Daniel Parent to preserve family video recordings and maintain backup copies in a personal Google Drive account.
The application uses rclone, an open-source file-transfer utility, to communicate with the Google Drive API.
The application requests Google Drive permissions to upload, list, verify, and manage backup files.
Although Google Drive authorization permits broader file access, the application is intended to operate only within the designated Family VHS Preservation Masters folder.
The application may access:
Files and folders within the authorized Google Drive account.
File names, sizes, modification dates, and other file metadata.
Video recordings and associated preservation files selected for backup.
Google Drive access is used exclusively for personal file preservation, backup, verification, and restoration.
The application does not use Google Drive data for advertising, analytics, marketing, or commercial purposes.
The application operator does not sell or disclose Google user data to advertisers, data brokers, or other third parties.
Selected files are transferred to Google Drive for storage. No family recordings are intentionally made publicly accessible through this website.
Original recordings are maintained on locally controlled storage devices. Backup copies are stored in the authorized Google Drive account.
OAuth credentials are stored locally by rclone and are not intentionally published or shared.
Google Drive authorization may be revoked through Google Account security settings.
Preservation files are retained for long-term personal archival purposes. The account owner controls file retention and deletion.
This privacy policy may be updated if the application's functionality or data-handling practices change.
Questions about this application or its privacy practices may be directed to:
