PickMerge privacy policy
Last updated 2026-09-30. This page covers the PickMerge add-on for Google Sheets. Our shared billing and licensing policy is at addons.greatwork.company/privacy and applies too.
Who we are
PickMerge is made by Great Work LLC, 651 N Broad St Suite 206, Middletown, DE 19709, USA. Contact: hello@greatwork.company.
Google user data PickMerge accesses, and why
- The spreadsheet you have open (scope
spreadsheets.currentonly): PickMerge reads the rows you choose to merge and writes document links and a status into new columns of that spreadsheet. It cannot open your other spreadsheets. - Drive files you pick or PickMerge creates (scope
drive.file): the template you choose in the Google file picker, an output folder you pick or PickMerge creates, and the Docs and PDFs it generates. PickMerge cannot see, list or search your other Drive files. - Sending email (scope
script.send_mail, optional): sends the emails you set up and confirm, from your account, to the addresses in your sheet. PickMerge cannot read your mailbox. - Background runs (scope
script.scriptapp, optional): a trigger that runs when a Google Form response arrives, only if you turn on Automatic mode. - Your email address (scope
userinfo.email): identifies your trial or subscription.
Where the data goes
Merging happens inside Google: PickMerge runs in Google Apps Script under your account and talks only to Google Sheets, Google Docs, Google Drive and Google's email service. Your spreadsheet contents, templates and generated documents are never sent to or stored on Great Work servers.
Our license server (addons.greatwork.company) receives only your Google account email address, the add-on name and how many documents you have generated. If you subscribe, Stripe processes the payment; card details go to Stripe, not to us.
PickMerge stores your settings for each tab (template file id, output options, email subject and message) in the spreadsheet's own add-on storage, and a small amount of per-user state (for example whether you dismissed the review prompt) in your Google account's add-on storage. Both stay in Google.
Sharing
We don't sell, rent or share Google user data. We don't use it for advertising, and we don't use it to train AI or machine learning models. People at Great Work don't read your data; support only sees what you choose to send us by email.
Limited Use
PickMerge's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs to any other app will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
Retention and deletion
- Generated files live in your Drive and are yours to keep or delete.
- Uninstalling PickMerge stops all access. To remove Automatic mode first, untick it in the sidebar. You can also revoke access at myaccount.google.com/permissions.
- To delete your license record (email and usage counts), email hello@greatwork.company from that account. We delete it within 30 days, except billing records the law requires us to keep.
Security
Requests between PickMerge and our license server are signed and sent over HTTPS. The add-on can only call the Google API hosts and our license server listed in its manifest.
Changes
If we change how PickMerge uses Google data, we will update this page and the date above before the change takes effect, and ask for any new permission through Google's consent screen.
