Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 18, 2026
1. Introduction
Welcome to Cooked ("we", "our", or "us"). We are committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our web application to generate humorous roasts of your YouTube Music taste.
By accessing or using our service, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with the terms of this Privacy Policy, please do not access the application.
2. Information We Collect
To provide our core service (roasting your music taste), we require access to certain information from your Google / YouTube account:
- Basic Profile Information: We may access basic public profile information to personalize your experience.
- YouTube Music Data: We request read-only access to your YouTube Music listening history, playlists, liked songs, and subscriptions via the YouTube Data API.
We only fetch the minimum data necessary to analyze your music preferences and generate the AI roast.
3. How We Use Your Information
The information we collect is used strictly for the following purposes:
- Generating Content: We process your listening data through AI models to create a personalized, comedic roast of your music taste.
- Service Delivery: To present you with the shareable roast card and statistics on your dashboard.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information or YouTube data to third parties. Your music data is processed ephemerally or stored only for the duration needed to generate your roast.
4. Third-Party Services
Our application relies on third-party services:
- Google / YouTube API: We use the YouTube Data API to fetch your music data. Your use of our application is also subject to the Google Privacy Policy.
- OpenAI / AI Providers: We send anonymized summaries of your music taste (e.g., top artists, genres) to AI providers to generate the roast text. We ensure that no personally identifiable information is sent to these AI models.
5. Data Retention and Security
We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your data. Since our primary function is to generate a one-off roast, we do not retain your detailed listening history on our servers after the generation process is complete.
However, please be aware that no electronic transmission over the internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.
6. Your Rights and Revoking Access
You have complete control over your data. Because we rely on Google OAuth for authentication and data access, you can revoke our application's access to your YouTube data at any time.
To revoke access, visit your Google Account Security settings, navigate to "Third-party apps with account access," select "Cooked", and click "Remove Access". Once access is revoked, we will no longer be able to read your music data.
7. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The updated version will be indicated by an updated "Last updated" date and the updated version will be effective as soon as it is accessible. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy frequently to be informed of how we are protecting your information.
