Rclone Google Drive Connector
Privacy notice
Last updated: October 27, 2026
Who operates this integration
This is a privately operated, personal-use connection between the operator’s own Google Drive account and rclone running on an operator-controlled computer. It is not a public service and has no user registration.
Google data accessed and how it is used
When authorized, rclone can access Google Drive data, including file and folder names, identifiers, metadata, and file contents. The OAuth authorization uses the Google Drive scope https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive, which grants broad access to Drive files in the authorized account.
The operator uses rclone to perform Drive operations initiated or configured on the operator-controlled computer. Depending on the command or application using the mount, this can include listing, reading, downloading, uploading, copying, syncing, moving, updating, or deleting files. Rclone may also create temporary or cached data on that computer according to its configuration.
How data is processed and stored
Rclone runs on the operator-controlled computer and communicates directly with Google’s Drive API. This public website does not receive or store Drive file contents, file metadata, OAuth tokens, or client credentials.
OAuth credentials needed for the integration are kept on the operator-controlled computer with restricted access. They are not included in this website’s files. Rclone logs, temporary files, or caches on that computer may be retained according to its configuration.
Sharing and disclosure
Drive data is sent to Google only as needed to carry out the operator’s requested Drive operations. The operator does not sell Drive data or use it for advertising, and this personal integration does not expose Drive data to other users. Cloudflare may process basic technical request information when delivering this public website under its own privacy practices.
Retention and revoking access
Files remain in Google Drive unless changed through an operation the operator initiates or configures. OAuth credentials and any rclone logs or caches remain on the operator-controlled computer until removed. The operator can revoke the application’s Google access from the Google Account’s third-party connections/security settings and remove the rclone credentials from that computer.
Security
The operator limits access to the computer and its credential files. No security measure can eliminate every risk; access should be revoked if the computer or credentials may have been exposed.
