Creator Discovery API notice
Public YouTube data, used only for internal research.
OriBridge, operated for international engagements by Terra Digital LLC, uses a limited read-only YouTube Data API v3 client to research publicly available creator and knowledge-product signals.
Not a creator service
This is not a public-facing YouTube service. It does not log creators in, connect to their accounts, or act on their behalf.
What the client does
Limited, internal, and read-only
Public metadata only
We may retrieve public channel, video, and playlist metadata available through the YouTube Data API v3, such as names, descriptions, publication information, public statistics, and public URLs.
Internal research
The data supports internal research into creators and expert-led knowledge products. It is not a public directory, creator profile service, or account-management tool.
30-day limit
API-derived public data is refreshed or deleted no later than 30 days after retrieval, unless a shorter period is required.
What the client does not do
No account or private-data access
No OAuth
We do not use OAuth, request YouTube account access, or access private account data.
No protected email data
We do not retrieve or store protected email information through the YouTube Data API client.
No changes to YouTube
We do not modify YouTube accounts, channels, videos, playlists, comments, or other creator content.
Rights and requests
An API result is not permission.
Finding public metadata does not create contact permission or any right to use, localize, publish, distribute, sell, or otherwise exploit creator content. Those activities require the appropriate separate permission or written agreement.
To request deletion of YouTube API data associated with a public channel, video, or playlist URL, email contact@oribridge.org and include the relevant public URL. We will review the request under our retention and legal obligations.
