Overleaf copia is a personal service of Nicola Boffoli. It is used only by its owner, with his own Google account.
drive.file permission only: the service creates a folder and writes into it a copy of the
owner's Overleaf papers. It can see and change only the files it has created. It does not read, list or change any other
file in the Drive.The permission granted by Google (a refresh token) is stored on the owner's own server, in a file readable only by the service. The papers are not kept on the server: each copy is made in a temporary folder that is deleted at the end.
No data is sold, shared with or shown to third parties, and none is used for advertising or for training models.
The permission can be revoked at any time from myaccount.google.com/permissions. After that the service can no longer write to the Drive; the files already copied stay in the Drive until they are deleted.
