Torrent Bot Drive

Privacy policy

Last updated: September 24, 2026

About this service

Torrent Bot Drive is a privately operated Telegram bot and Raspberry Pi service used by its owner. It is not a public service for general users. The bot can search configured torrent indexers and manage downloads on the owner's Raspberry Pi. Google Drive uploads are optional and remain disabled until the owner configures and authorizes them.

Google user data

If the owner enables Google Drive uploads, rclone on the Raspberry Pi uses the Google Drive API with the drive.file OAuth scope. This scope is used to create and manage files for this service; it is not a request for general access to the owner's entire Drive. The service uses this access only to copy completed downloads selected by the owner to the owner's configured Drive folder.

Google OAuth credentials, including the refresh token, are stored in a private configuration file on the Raspberry Pi. They are not stored in this website, the Telegram bot's environment file, or the project repository. File contents are transferred from the Raspberry Pi to Google Drive; they are not sent to this website or Cloudflare.

Google user data is not sold, used for advertising, or shared with third parties except as needed for the owner-requested transfer to Google Drive. Google's handling of data is governed by Google's own terms and privacy disclosures.

Other service data

Telegram processes messages sent to the bot. Search terms are sent to the indexers configured by the owner through the owner's local search service. Download files are kept on the owner's attached storage; the uploader maintains a small local retry queue containing download identifiers until uploads succeed.

This static website does not include analytics, sign-in, forms, or scripts that collect Google account data. Cloudflare delivers these informational pages. Requests to the website may be processed under Cloudflare's applicable service terms and privacy policy.

Retention and control

The owner controls the Raspberry Pi, its local storage, the Google Drive destination folder, and the associated Google account. The owner can disable uploads, remove uploaded files from Drive, delete local downloads, or revoke the app's Google access in the Google Account security settings. Revoking access prevents future Drive uploads until authorization is completed again.
