3. Google API Services

Certain Sea Digitalis features may integrate with Google APIs, including Google Search Console API, Google Ads API, and other Google services where applicable.

• Other information required to provide the enabled Google integration.

Sea Digitalis uses Google API information only for functionality requested or enabled by the user or authorized administrator.

4. How We Use Google API Data

Information obtained through Google APIs may be used to:

5. Google User Data and Limited Use

We do not sell Google user data.

We do not use Google user data for advertising targeting unrelated to the functionality requested by the user.

We do not transfer Google user data to third parties except where necessary to provide or improve user-requested functionality, comply with applicable law, protect against security threats or abuse, or where the user has provided appropriate authorization.

6. Google Authentication and Credentials

Some integrations may use OAuth credentials, service accounts, access tokens, or other authentication mechanisms provided by Google.

Authentication credentials are used only to authenticate authorized requests to the relevant Google services.

Users and administrators are responsible for ensuring that they only connect Google accounts and properties that they are authorized to access.

We take reasonable measures to protect authentication information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or misuse.

7. Google Search Console

If Google Search Console integration is enabled, Sea Digitalis may retrieve authorized search performance information for connected website properties.

This information may include queries, pages, clicks, impressions, CTR, average position, dates, countries, devices, and other dimensions made available through the Google Search Console API.

This information may be stored and processed to provide historical comparisons, SEO analysis, performance monitoring, and content intelligence features.

8. Google Ads

If Google Ads integration is enabled, Sea Digitalis may access authorized Google Ads API functionality for purposes such as keyword research and related analysis.

Depending on the functionality used and the access granted, information processed may include keyword ideas, historical search metrics, geographic targeting, language targeting, advertising competition metrics, and other information returned by the Google Ads API.

Google Ads data is used to provide the requested keyword research and analytical functionality and is not represented as proprietary Sea Digitalis measurement data.
