2. About Kernus Ads Reports
Kernus Ads Reports is an internal tool. It is used only by the owner of Kernus, on the owner's own computer. It is not offered to the public, has no sign-up and has no other users.
The app connects to the Google Ads API with the owner's authorization, given through Google sign-in (OAuth). It accesses only the Google Ads accounts that belong to the owner, including the client accounts under the owner's own Google Ads manager account. It does not access Google Ads accounts of any other person or company.
3. Google user data the app accesses
The app accesses only the following data, from the owner's own Google Ads accounts:
- Campaign performance metrics, such as impressions, clicks, cost, conversions and conversion value, by account, campaign, ad group, keyword and search term.
- Account and campaign information needed to read those reports, such as account names and IDs, currency, and the names, status and settings of campaigns, ad groups, ads and keywords.
- Keyword Planner data, such as keyword ideas, average monthly searches, monthly search volume history, competition level and top-of-page bid estimates.
The app requests these Google permissions (OAuth scopes):
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/adwords: to read the Google Ads data listed above;https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform: required by the Google Cloud command-line tools to sign the owner in to the owner's own Google Cloud project. It is not used to read any other data.
The app does not access Gmail, Google Drive, contacts, calendar, or the personal data of any other Google user.
4. How the app uses the data
The data is used only to produce reports and keyword research for the owner's own advertising decisions, for example: checking campaign results and costs, and estimating search demand for keywords before running a campaign.
The app only reads data. It does not create, change or delete campaigns, ads, keywords, bids, budgets or any other setting in Google Ads.
The data is not used for advertising to anyone, for building user profiles, for credit or lending decisions, for selling to data brokers, or for training generalized artificial intelligence or machine learning models.
5. Where the data is stored
- Reports and exports (for example, CSV files) are stored locally on the owner's computer.
- Sign-in credentials (the OAuth token) are stored locally on the owner's computer by the Google Cloud command-line tools. They are never placed in the website or in any public code.
- Spreadsheets: the owner may copy report results into a spreadsheet in the owner's own Google Sheets account, which is stored by Google under the owner's Google account.
Kernus does not operate any server or database for this app. The kernus.com.br website does not receive or store any Google user data.
6. How long the data is kept
Reports, exports and spreadsheet copies are kept only for as long as they are needed for the owner's analysis, and for no longer than 12 months. After that, they are deleted.
Sign-in credentials are kept until the owner signs out or revokes access (see section 10). Revoking access stops the app from reading any new data.
7. Sharing
Kernus does not sell, rent or trade Google user data, and does not share it with third parties for their own purposes.
Service provider: to analyze the reports, the owner uses an AI assistant (Claude, provided by Anthropic) on the owner's computer. Report data may be sent to that provider only to answer the owner's own requests, under the provider's terms. The owner has turned off the use of this data for training the provider's models.
Data may also be disclosed if required by law, or to protect against fraud or security threats.
8. Google API Services User Data Policy and Limited Use
Kernus Ads Reports' use and transfer to any other app of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
