Drive I/O Terms of Service
Welcome to Drive I/O, a Chrome extension that helps you copy folder structures and manage permissions within Google Drive. By using our extension, you agree to these terms:
Service Description
Drive I/O lets you select folders in Google Drive, duplicate their structure and contents into another location, and perform bulk permission removals across multiple files and folders using either our Chrome extension or Google Workspace add-on.
Google Account Use
You must be signed into the corresponding Google account that owns the Drive content you want to manage. Drive I/O operates exclusively within the signed-in account.
Google Drive Permissions
Drive I/O requires full access to your Google Drive using the 'auth/drive' scope to perform operations such as folder duplication, permission management, and file organization. This access is necessary for the service to function properly and manage your Drive content on your behalf. Drive I/O undergoes Google-approved third-party security examination and assessment to ensure compliance with Google's security standards and data protection requirements.
Data Storage
We store folder and file names and IDs on our servers for history tracking and functionality purposes. This data is not encrypted in storage.
Data Sharing
No user data is sold, rented, or shared with any third parties.
Pricing and Notifications
Pricing for Drive I/O may change in the future. Users will receive at least 21 days' notice prior to any price adjustment.
Refund Policy
In cases of accidental charges due to software bugs, users can contact support for verification and a full refund.
AI Features
If Drive I/O integrates AI technology, you will be notified in advance and given the option to allow or deny use of your data for training.
User Responsibility
Users are responsible for ensuring compliance with Google API usage policies and applicable law.
Limitation of Liability
Drive I/O is provided "as is" without any warranty. We are not liable for indirect or consequential damages arising from use or inability to use the service.
Updates to Terms
Changes to these terms will be posted with an updated effective date. Continued use indicates acceptance of the new terms.

Google Workspace Add-on External Server Communication
Regarding the Google Workspace Add-on version of Drive I/O: By using this service, you acknowledge and agree that the application relies on external server communication to perform complex administrative tasks that exceed the limitations of the local script environment. These tasks include, but are not limited to, the bulk replication of Google Drive structures, automated user creation, and the processing of financial transactions through Stripe. The use of the script.external_request scope is a core technical requirement for these features; therefore, granting this permission is necessary for the application to function. While we implement industry-standard security protocols for all external data transfers, our liability is limited to the processing of metadata required for these service-related actions, and we do not assume responsibility for the independent privacy practices of Stripe or other integrated third-party platforms.
Right to Refuse Service
Drive I/O reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to refuse service, terminate accounts, or limit access to the application for any user at any time and for any reason. This includes, but is not limited to, instances of suspected trial abuse, violation of these Terms, unauthorized use of the software, or engagement in behavior that compromises the security and integrity of our systems. In cases of service refusal or account termination, Drive I/O is not liable for any loss of data or disruption of workflow.
Prohibited Use
Users are strictly prohibited from using Drive I/O for any illegal activities or to circumvent Google Drive’s native security and sharing policies. Prohibited behavior includes, but is not limited to: creating multiple accounts to exploit free trial offers, using automated scripts to stress-test our backend infrastructure, or utilizing the application to facilitate the unauthorized distribution of copyrighted material. Any violation of these standards will result in an immediate and permanent ban from all Drive I/O services.
Acceptable Behavior
By using Drive I/O, you agree to interact with our services in a manner that respects our infrastructure and other users. Acceptable use includes using the application's features as intended through the provided Chrome Extension or Google Workspace Add-on interface. You agree not to attempt to reverse-engineer our code, bypass our payment systems, or use the service to perform bulk operations that intentionally degrade the performance of our dedicated servers.
