Your Google Drive Data Stays Private
MCP Hubby acts as a secure proxy for Google Drive API requests. We do not store your file content or metadata. All requests are processed in real-time between your AI assistant and Google's servers.
Our use of Google Drive data complies with Google's API Services User Data Policy. Read our Privacy Policy for complete details.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is my Google Drive data secure?
Yes. We use OAuth (the same "Sign in with Google" you use everywhere). We never see your password or store your files. We only store a connection mapping that lets us proxy API requests on your behalf.
What permissions do you need?
We request drive.readonly (read files), drive.file (manage files created by the app), and drive.appdata (app-specific data). You can see exactly what we request during OAuth authorization.
Can I disconnect anytime?
Yes. One click in your hub disconnects Google Drive and revokes access. You can also revoke access directly in your Google Account settings.
What AI tools does this work with?
Any MCP-compatible client: Claude Desktop, Cursor, Continue, and more. One connection works with all.
