Terms of Service for DriveHub

1. Description of DriveHub

DriveHub is a Google OAuth application and WordPress plugin developed by Sovlix that allows WordPress websites to connect to Google Drive. It enables WordPress site administrators to browse, display, upload, and embed Google Drive files on their WordPress websites.

2. Google Terms of Service

By using DriveHub to interact with Google Drive, you also agree to be bound by the Google Terms of Service and the Google APIs Terms of Service. This includes any use of Google Drive API services through our plugin.

3. User Data and Privacy

We collect and store Google account data including OAuth access tokens, refresh tokens, and your Google account email address, as necessary to provide the Google Drive integration features. For details on how we handle your data, please refer to our Privacy Policy.

4. Google Account Authorization

DriveHub accesses Google Drive only after the user grants permission through Google's OAuth authorization process.

DriveHub requests the limited https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.file OAuth scope. This permission allows DriveHub to see, edit, create, and delete only the specific files and folders that the user creates, selects, opens, or otherwise uses with DriveHub.

DriveHub does not request the restricted https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive scope and does not request unrestricted access to all files in the connected Google Drive account.

By connecting a Google account, the user acknowledges that:

• DriveHub stores the OAuth credentials required to maintain the connection in the user's WordPress database.
• DriveHub uses the granted permission only to provide its Google Drive browsing, display, upload, download, embed, and file-management features.
• DriveHub does not access Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Contacts, or any other Google service.
• The user may disconnect DriveHub or revoke its authorization at any time.

Authorization can be revoked through Google Account permissions or from the DriveHub settings page.

5. DriveHub OAuth Connection Service

When Automatic Connection mode is selected, DriveHub connects to https://sovlix.com/drivehub-oauth.php, a service operated by Sovlix.

The service provides the shared Google OAuth client ID and processes OAuth token refresh requests required to maintain an authorized Google Drive connection.

• During client ID lookup, the plugin sends only the client ID request action.
• When an access token must be refreshed, the plugin sends the Google OAuth refresh token and connected WordPress website URL to the Sovlix OAuth service.
• Google Drive files and file contents are not sent to the Sovlix OAuth service during these OAuth requests.

These requests occur only when Automatic Connection mode is used and only when required to establish or maintain a connection authorized by the user.

6. Permitted Use

You may install and use DriveHub on WordPress websites you own or administer. You may not:

• Use DriveHub to circumvent Google's API usage policies or rate limits.
• Use DriveHub to upload illegal, harmful, or infringing content to Google Drive.
• Resell or redistribute DriveHub premium licenses without authorization from Sovlix.

7. Premium Licenses

Premium versions of DriveHub are sold through Freemius, a third-party licensing and payments platform. Premium license purchases are subject to Freemius Terms of Service. We offer refunds in accordance with the refund policy stated on the DriveHub product page.

8. Disclaimer of Warranties

DriveHub is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. Sovlix does not warrant that the Plugin will be error-free, uninterrupted, or compatible with every WordPress environment. Sovlix is not responsible for data loss or issues caused by changes to Google's API or terms.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Sovlix shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of DriveHub, including but not limited to loss of data or disruption to your Google Drive. Sovlix's total liability shall not exceed the amount you paid for any premium license in the preceding twelve months.

10. Updates to the Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. Changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date. Continued use of DriveHub after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised terms.
