CryoByte Privacy Policy
Last updated October 27, 2026
CryoByte is a private app used by one household of two people. It is not offered to the public. This page explains what CryoByte does with Google account data when a household member connects their Google account.
What CryoByte accesses
A member chooses which Google services to connect. Depending on that choice, CryoByte may request:
- Gmail — read messages (
gmail.readonly), and draft or send messages the member confirms (gmail.compose).
- Google Calendar — read events (
calendar.readonly), and create, change or delete events the member confirms (calendar.events).
- Google Drive — read files (
drive.readonly).
How it is used
- Data is read only when a household member asks CryoByte's assistant, Rime, a question that needs it, for example "Is there a flight confirmation this week?".
- Rime never sends, changes or deletes anything on its own. Every email it sends and every calendar change it makes is shown to the member first and happens only after they confirm it.
- Text inside emails and files is treated as information only, never as instructions.
- To answer a question, the relevant parts of an email, event or file are sent to the AI service that runs Rime (Anthropic's Claude or OpenAI's Codex), which processes them to produce the answer.
Storage and sharing
- Google sign-in tokens are stored encrypted on CryoByte's own household server and are never shown to the apps.
- CryoByte keeps a log of what Rime read (titles only, no message bodies) for 30 days, so members can see it.
- Google data is shared only between the two household members. It is not sold, not used for advertising, and not used to train AI models.
- CryoByte's use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
Disconnecting
A member can disconnect their Google account in CryoByte's Settings at any time. This revokes access and deletes the tokens and everything kept for that connection. Access can also be removed from Google Account permissions.
