Connecting Localo with your Google account or Google Business Profile is safe and secure.
The connection process is equivalent to adding an extra user to your Google Business Profile (GBP), meaning you'll grant certain permissions to the Localo application so it can help you manage and optimize your profile.
Please note: access granted to Localo is equivalent to manager, not owner access - Localo app will never affect your access as a main account owner.
Here are the main security points:
Localo is built on global, up-to-date security standards and is regularly updated to ensure safety and compliance. Google does not allow integrations that don’t follow strict security requirements to access its APIs and platforms.
When you connect Localo to Google, you do not share your Google password with the Localo team. The authentication happens through secure OAuth methods, not by handing over credentials.
Localo offers features like GBP Protection, which can help prevent unwanted changes or malicious edits to your Google Business Profile.
Always be cautious about granting access to sensitive or business-critical Google accounts and double-check that you are using the official Localo website when connecting.
In summary: Localo’s connection to Google is as secure as possible under Google’s standards and does not share your password or allow access beyond what is required for GBP management.
