1. Introduction and Acceptance
These Terms of Service govern your access to and use of GDrive Backup, an application developed and operated by updaters.gr.
GDrive Backup provides backup and synchronization functionality for files stored in Google Drive, allowing users to maintain additional copies of their data on servers operated by updaters.gr.
By accessing or using GDrive Backup, you agree to these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy.
If you do not agree with these terms, you must not use the application.
2. Service Description
GDrive Backup provides functionality that allows users to:
- Connect their Google accounts using Google’s OAuth 2.0 authorization system.
- Grant the application permission to access authorized Google Drive files and metadata.
- Transfer authorized files from Google Drive to storage infrastructure operated by updaters.gr.
- Maintain backup copies of files on our servers.
- Synchronize stored backup copies with the corresponding Google Drive files.
- Manage backup and synchronization operations through the application’s available functionality.
The specific features available may depend on the application version, configuration, and permissions granted by the user.
GDrive Backup is an independent third-party application. It is not developed, operated, sponsored, or endorsed by Google LLC.
Google Drive remains a separate service subject to Google’s own terms and policies.
3. User Accounts and Google Authorization
To use GDrive Backup, you must connect a Google account and authorize the application through Google’s official OAuth 2.0 authorization process.
You agree to:
- Provide valid authorization for the Google account you connect.
- Grant only the permissions you understand and intend to provide.
- Maintain control over your Google account and its security.
- Notify us if you suspect unauthorized access to your account or backup service.
GDrive Backup does not request or store your Google account password.
You may revoke the application’s access through your Google Account security settings at any time:
https://myaccount.google.com/permissions
Revoking authorization prevents the application from accessing Google Drive through that authorization.
However, revocation does not automatically delete backup copies already stored on our servers. Deletion requests must be submitted separately.
4. User Responsibilities
You are responsible for:
- Ensuring that you have the legal right to back up and synchronize the files you select.
- Ensuring that your use of the service does not violate copyright, intellectual property, confidentiality, or other applicable laws.
- Maintaining the security of your Google account.
- Reviewing the results and status of backup operations.
- Maintaining additional backups of particularly important or irreplaceable information.
- Ensuring that your use of the application complies with Google’s applicable terms and policies.
You must not use GDrive Backup to store, distribute, or process unlawful content or information in violation of applicable laws.
You must not attempt to compromise, interfere with, reverse engineer, or gain unauthorized access to the application or its infrastructure.
5. Backup and Synchronization
GDrive Backup is designed to provide additional copies of files stored in Google Drive.
Although we make reasonable efforts to ensure reliable backup and synchronization operations, we cannot guarantee that every file will always be successfully backed up or synchronized.
Backup operations may be affected by:
- Google Drive API availability or limitations.
- Network connectivity problems.
- Google account permission changes.
- API quotas and rate limits.
- File access restrictions.
- Temporary server or infrastructure problems.
- Changes in Google’s services or APIs.
- Other technical circumstances beyond our reasonable control.
Users should periodically verify that their important files have been successfully backed up.
Important: GDrive Backup should not be considered the sole protection against data loss.
Users are encouraged to maintain additional copies of critical information.
6. Storage and Data Retention
Backup files are stored on servers and storage infrastructure operated by updaters.gr.
Files and associated metadata are generally retained while the corresponding backup or synchronization configuration remains active.
The application may update backup copies when the corresponding Google Drive files change.
Previous versions or backup history, where supported, are subject to the application’s available functionality and retention configuration.
When a user requests deletion of stored backup data, we will process the request in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
Routine deletion from active systems will normally be completed within 30 days of a verified request. Residual copies in routine backup and disaster-recovery systems will be removed within a maximum of 90 days.
Revoking Google authorization alone does not constitute a deletion request.
7. Data Protection and Privacy
We take appropriate measures to protect the information processed through GDrive Backup.
Our handling of personal information and Google user data is described in our Privacy Policy:
https://updaters.gr/gdrive_backup/privacy-policy/
In particular:
- Google user data is processed exclusively to provide the application’s backup and synchronization functionality.
- Google user data is not sold or rented.
- Google user data is not used for advertising or marketing profiling.
- Google user data is not used to train artificial intelligence or machine learning models.
- Access to stored information is restricted to authorized operational purposes.
Our use of Google APIs is subject to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements.
8. Service Availability and Maintenance
We aim to maintain GDrive Backup as a reliable service.
However, we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free availability.
The service may occasionally be unavailable because of:
- Scheduled maintenance.
- Infrastructure upgrades.
- Technical failures.
- Security incidents.
- Third-party service interruptions.
- Circumstances beyond our reasonable control.
We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue specific application features when necessary for technical, operational, security, or legal reasons.
Where reasonably possible, we will provide notice of significant service interruptions or changes.
9. Third-Party Services
GDrive Backup relies on certain third-party services to operate, including:
- Google OAuth 2.0 authentication.
- Google Drive API services.
- Server hosting and infrastructure providers.
- Network and security infrastructure providers.
These services are subject to their own terms, policies, and availability conditions.
We are not responsible for interruptions or changes to third-party services beyond our reasonable control.
Your use of Google Drive remains subject to Google’s applicable terms and policies.
10. Intellectual Property
The GDrive Backup application, including its software, design, branding, documentation, and associated materials, is owned by or licensed to updaters.gr.
Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of the application or its intellectual property to users.
Users retain their rights and ownership interests in the files they store in Google Drive and back up through GDrive Backup.
By using the service, you grant us only the limited technical authorization necessary to access, transfer, store, and synchronize your files according to your instructions and the permissions you grant.
We do not claim ownership of your files or their contents.
11. Suspension and Termination
You may stop using GDrive Backup at any time.
You may also revoke the application’s Google authorization through your Google Account settings.
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate access to the service if:
- You materially violate these Terms.
- Your use of the service is unlawful.
- Your activities threaten the security or stability of our infrastructure.
- Continued provision of the service would violate applicable law.
- We are required to do so by a competent authority.
Where reasonably possible, we will notify affected users before terminating their access.
Upon termination, further backup and synchronization operations will stop.
Stored backup data will be handled according to our Privacy Policy and applicable deletion procedures.
12. Disclaimer of Warranties
GDrive Backup is provided on an “as available” basis.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, we do not warrant that:
- Every file will be backed up successfully.
- Synchronization will always occur without errors.
- All stored files will always be immediately accessible.
- The service will operate without interruptions.
- The application will be compatible with every future change to Google Drive.
We make reasonable efforts to maintain the reliability, security, and availability of the service.
Nothing in these Terms excludes warranties or rights that cannot legally be excluded under applicable law.
13. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, updaters.gr shall not be liable for indirect or consequential damages arising from the use or inability to use GDrive Backup.
This includes, where legally permissible, losses resulting from:
- Failed or incomplete backup operations.

- Unauthorized access resulting from compromised user accounts.
- Data loss resulting from circumstances beyond our reasonable control.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where such exclusion or limitation is prohibited by applicable law, including liability arising from intentional misconduct, gross negligence where applicable, or mandatory consumer protection rights.

Where required, we will request explicit acceptance of material changes.

Any disputes arising from the use of GDrive Backup shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the competent courts in Greece, subject to mandatory consumer protection rules and applicable European Union regulations.
