Privacy policy for Serious Pod's apps

Last updated: November 3, 2026

Serious Pod LLC makes podcasts, including Opening Arguments. This page covers the small private tools we use to run our own channels.

Who uses these tools

Serious Pod uses a few private tools, including "OA HQ", to manage its own podcast channels, including the Opening Arguments YouTube channel. Only Serious Pod staff use them. They are not offered to the public.

What they access

With the channel owner's permission, these tools access that YouTube channel's channel and live-stream settings, so we can schedule and run our own live streams. They do not access viewers' data.

Where the information is kept

The access token and any channel data stay on Serious Pod's own server. Nothing is sold, shared or used for advertising.

Google API Services

Our use of information received from Google APIs follows the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

Removing access

The channel owner can remove these tools' access at any time at myaccount.google.com/permissions.
