Because Valosan is deeply integrated with Google services, it requires certain additional permissions to access your data in Google Drive and Gmail to unlock all features of Valosan.
We are using OAuth to login and use the app and access Google Services.
Access is given incrementally, during the user's experience with the Valosan app and Valosan Gmail extension, when explicitly requested by the user.

What is the reason to access restricted scopes?
From Google API Services User Data Policy only certain application types may access Restricted Scopes for each product:
- Gmail - Applications that enhance the email experience for productivity purposes (such as applications for customer relationship management, delayed sending of email, or mail merge)
- Drive - Productivity and educational applications (including task management, note-taking, workgroup communications, and classroom collaboration applications) that only use Restricted Scopes to handle Drive files (or their metadata or permissions) via the application’s user interface
Valosan is a CRM for talking with journalists, media, bloggers and other 3rd parties and helps to send the email and provides mail merge to improve user's experience for productivity purposes.
