Welcome to Flowifie, a Google Sheets add-on designed to help you create flowchart diagrams from data in your spreadsheets.
By installing and using the Flowifie add-on ("Service"), you agree to be bound by the following terms and conditions ("Terms of Service").
Description of Service
Flowifie provides tools within Google Sheets to:
Create and format a special template sheet for defining flowchart steps.
Read the data you input into this template (such as step IDs, descriptions, and logic).
Generate a flowchart diagram based on your data.
To render the flowchart image, the add-on constructs a URL that sends your flowchart data to the public, third-party service, Mermaid.ink. The resulting image is then displayed directly within your Google Sheet.
Data Handling and Privacy
Your privacy is important to us. Here’s how we handle your data:
Data Access: The add-on needs permission to access and modify the content of your active Google Sheet to function. It reads cell values, formatting, and colors to generate the diagram.
Data Storage: The add-on uses Google Apps Script's PropertiesService to store data related to the sheet's configuration (like version and row numbers) directly within your Google spreadsheet document. This information is not transmitted to any external server controlled by Flowifie.
Third-Party Data Transmission: To generate the flowchart diagram, the add-on sends the diagram data you create (the text and structure of your flowchart) to the Mermaid.ink service (https://mermaid.ink). We are not responsible for the privacy or security practices of Mermaid.ink. We encourage you to review their terms and privacy policy before using this feature.
Sensitive Information: We strongly advise against including any sensitive, private, or confidential information (such as personal data, passwords, or financial information) in the flowchart data you create, as it will be transmitted outside of Google’s environment to the Mermaid.ink service.
User Responsibilities
You are solely responsible for the data you create and use with this Service.
You agree not to use the Service for any unlawful purpose or to create content that is infringing, libelous, or malicious.
You are responsible for maintaining the security of your own Google Account.
4. Service Availability and Modifications
This Service is provided "as is" and "as available." We do not guarantee that the Service will always be error-free, uninterrupted, or secure.
The add-on relies on Google Sheets, Google Apps Script, and the external Mermaid.ink service. Any changes to or issues with these underlying services may affect the functionality of Flowifie.
We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue the Service at any time, with or without notice.
Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the developer of Flowifie shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary damages, including but not limited to, damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, data, or other intangible losses (even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages), resulting from:
The use or the inability to use the Service.
Any unauthorized access to or alteration of your data.
Any loss of data or corruption of your spreadsheet.
Intellectual Property
You acknowledge that the Service, including the "Flowifie" name, its underlying code, and user interface, is the intellectual property of its developer. You retain all ownership rights to the content (the data) you create within your Google Sheets.
Changes to Terms
We reserve the right to update these Terms of Service at any time. If we make changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this document. Your continued use of the add-on after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the new terms.
