Note about GDPR and CPRA (February 23, 2026): For applicable locations related to the GDPR (EU) and CPRA (California) laws. Our privacy policy will be updated as more information and guidance is made available about GDPR and CPRA. Currently, some cookies are still required for advertisements (e.g. for fraud prevention), and we don't currently have a way for the user to pay for access to the website without advertisements. We are looking into an easier way for the user to opt-out of the use of cookies, but for now you may either disable cookies via your browser, or avoid using the website.
We take privacy very seriously, and if you are reading this, you probably do as well. First of all, you should know that except for the trusted services that we use for hosting our site (vercel.com), managing our newsletter (MailChimp), processing payments (PayPal, Etsy), analysing traffic (Google Analytics), and filtering blog comment spam, no outside party will have access to your personal information unless you publish it yourself by adding it to a blog comment for example. We do not share personal information or email lists with third parties beyond those specifically named, and then only for the purposes required to perform the intended function (such as processing the payment, subscribing to the newsletter, or using the website). See below for more specifics.
Maayins Technologies owns and runs the website Maayins.com, so when we say "we", "us", or "our" we mean this site as well as the associates, employees, partners, and affiliates who help run this website and deliver the Content to you. If you have objections to this Privacy Policy, you should not access or use this site. On this page we will explain:
This section covers data practices specific to the NetXcel Google Workspace Add-on available on the Google Workspace Marketplace.
NetXcel is a Google Sheets add-on developed by Maayins Technologies that connects your Google Sheets spreadsheets to NetSuite ERP systems for real-time financial reporting, inventory analysis, demand planning, and business data management. The add-on operates within Google Sheets via a sidebar interface where users can authenticate with NetSuite, build and execute SuiteQL queries, and generate formatted reports directly in their spreadsheets.
The NetXcel Google Sheets add-on requires access to the following Google API scopes to function:
1. Spreadsheets Current Only Scope (auth/spreadsheets.currentonly) — See, edit, create, and delete this spreadsheet
This scope is required to read, write, and format data in the currently active Google Sheets spreadsheet when executing SuiteQL queries and generating reports from NetSuite. This includes writing financial statements (Balance Sheet, Income Statement, Cash Flow), inventory reports, transaction records, and other business data directly into your active spreadsheet. The add-on also reads existing spreadsheet data to determine cell positions and apply appropriate formatting. This scope only grants access to the spreadsheet the user currently has open — it does not provide access to any other spreadsheets in the user's Google Drive.
2. Container UI Scope (auth/script.container.ui) — Display and run third-party web content in prompts and sidebars inside Google applications
This scope is required to display the NetXcel sidebar panel within Google Sheets, where you can authenticate with your NetSuite account, configure data source connections, build and execute SuiteQL queries, select report templates, and manage your saved report configurations — all without leaving Google Sheets.
3. External Request Scope (auth/script.external_request) — Connect to an external service
This scope is required to allow the add-on to communicate with external services via UrlFetchApp. NetXcel uses this to connect to the Maayins Technologies API backend, which securely relays SuiteQL queries to your NetSuite account and returns the results to your spreadsheet.
4. User Email Scope (auth/userinfo.email) — See your primary Google Account email address
This scope is required to identify the currently signed-in user by their email address. NetXcel uses this to associate the user with their NetXcel account, verify subscription status, and ensure that the correct NetSuite connection settings are loaded for the authenticated user.
NetXcel uses your Google Sheets data solely to provide the core functionality of the add-on — connecting your spreadsheet to NetSuite for data retrieval and report generation. Specifically:
We implement the following security measures to protect data accessed through Google APIs:
Account Data: Account information (such as your email address, name, and subscription details) is retained for as long as your account remains active or as needed to provide the NetXcel service.
Spreadsheet and ERP Data: We do not persistently store the contents of your Google Sheets or NetSuite business data on our servers. This data is processed in real-time during query execution and is not retained after the active session ends.
Configuration Data: Saved report templates, query configurations, and NetSuite connection settings are stored securely and encrypted at rest. This data is deleted when you delete your account.
Deletion Requests: You may request deletion of your account and all associated data at any time by contacting us at support@maayins.com. Upon receiving a verified deletion request, we will remove your personal information within 30 days, except where retention is required by applicable law.
We do not sell, rent, or trade any data obtained through Google APIs. Your Google Sheets data is transmitted directly to and from your NetSuite account as directed by you. We only share data with third parties in the following limited circumstances:
A) User-Directed Transfers: When you execute a query, your spreadsheet data is transmitted to NetSuite and results are returned to Google Sheets — both at your explicit direction.
B) Cloud Infrastructure: Our application backend is hosted on trusted cloud platforms (Vercel, Microsoft Azure) that maintain SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certifications. These providers process data only as necessary to provide hosting services.
C) Legal Compliance: We may disclose information if required by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request.
NetXcel's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. Specifically:
This section covers data practices specific to the NetXcel Microsoft Office Add-in available on Microsoft AppSource.
NetXcel for Microsoft Excel is an Office Add-in that connects your Excel spreadsheets to NetSuite ERP systems for real-time financial reporting, inventory analysis, demand planning, and business data management. The add-in operates within Excel via a task pane interface where users can authenticate with NetSuite, build and execute SuiteQL queries, and generate formatted reports directly in their workbooks.
NetXcel for Excel accesses your spreadsheet data to provide the following functionality:
Authentication with NetSuite is handled via OAuth 2.0. Your NetSuite credentials are never stored by Maayins Technologies.
We implement the following security measures for data accessed through the Excel add-in:
Account Data: Account information is retained for as long as your account remains active or as needed to provide the NetXcel service.
Spreadsheet and ERP Data: We do not persistently store the contents of your Excel workbooks or NetSuite business data. Data flows directly between Excel and NetSuite through our secure API connections during active sessions.
Configuration Data: Saved report templates, query configurations, and connection settings are stored securely and encrypted at rest. This data is deleted when you delete your account.
Deletion Requests: You may request deletion of your account and all associated data at any time by contacting us at support@maayins.com. We will remove your personal information within 30 days of a verified request, except where retention is required by law.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. Your Excel data is transmitted directly to and from your NetSuite account as directed by you. We only share data with third parties in the following limited circumstances:
A) User-Directed Transfers: When you execute a query, your request is sent to NetSuite and results are returned to Excel — both at your explicit direction.
B) Cloud Infrastructure: Our application backend is hosted on Microsoft Azure and other trusted cloud platforms that maintain SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certifications.
C) Legal Compliance: We may disclose information if required by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request.
The following sections apply to all Maayins Technologies services, including the Maayins.com website, NetXcel products, and any other services we offer.
We take the security of your personal information and data very seriously. We implement industry-standard administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to protect your data from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.
All data transmitted between your browser, our servers, and third-party services (including Google APIs and NetSuite) is encrypted using TLS (Transport Layer Security) / SSL encryption. Data at rest in our systems is protected using AES-256 encryption or equivalent industry-standard encryption methods provided by our cloud infrastructure partners.
Access to user data is restricted through role-based access controls (RBAC). Authentication to third-party services is managed through OAuth 2.0 protocols, ensuring that user credentials are never directly stored by our applications. Only authorized personnel with a legitimate business need have access to user data, and all access is logged and monitored.
Our applications are hosted on trusted cloud platforms (including Vercel and Microsoft Azure) that maintain SOC 2, ISO 27001, and other industry-standard security certifications. We regularly review and update our security practices to address emerging threats and vulnerabilities.
In the unlikely event of a data breach, we will notify affected users and relevant authorities in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. We maintain an incident response plan to promptly address and mitigate any security incidents.
Our newsletters are opt-in and completely optional. Online visitors who choose to be on our mailing lists and/or receive periodic email announcements provide their name and email address. We use a confirmed opt-in subscription process to prevent a person from subscribing someone without their permission. Anyone who wishes to can choose to be removed from our mailing list at any time, by using the unsubscribe link at the bottom of the newsletter(s), or contacting Maayins Technologies directly and asking to be removed.
We use MailChimp.com to manage and send newsletters. We do not share or sell our email lists and we do not store these lists outside of the MailChimp system.
Our site uses 'cookies' to manage your session on our site. Cookies are an industry standard and most major web sites use them. A cookie is a small text file stored on your computer, but is not stored on our website. Cookies help to save your personal preferences from one visit to the next (such as remaining logged into a website), make advertising more relevant, prevent pop-ups from being displayed too often, etc. Learn more about cookies used by Google.
Cookies on our site are used for Web Analytics (see these sections below for more information). We also use cookies for logging into our blog, but only authors and administrators can log in. Cookies may also be required for viewing the videos that we have embedded from youtube.com.
You can remove or clear cookies from your computer via your browser (typically accessed via your browser's settings or tools menu). You can also disable all cookies via your browser, but this might cause this and other websites to stop working (such as not being able to log in, embedded videos not working, etc.).
We measure visitors to our website using Google Analytics, a service that transmits website traffic data to Google servers in the United States. Google Analytics does not identify individual users or associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. We use reports provided by Google Analytics to help us understand website usage trends and to make improvements to our site.
Website traffic data includes information such as the number of times a link was clicked, IP addresses, browser types, access times, how people arrived at our site and so on. For example, if you find our site through a search engine, the logs will show that a visitor clicked through to our site from that search engine. General aggregate site statistics may be provided to potential advertisers and link partners (such as number of visitors per month from the US). These statistics cannot be used to identify an individual, since they do not include any personal information.
You can learn more about Google Analytics, or you may opt-out of using Google Analytics cookies by using the Google Analytics Opt-Out Add-on for your browser.
Maayins Technologies itself does not process payments or store credit card information. All transactions are handled by third-party services, including PayPal.com or Etsy.com.
If you use one of these services to purchase a Maayins Technologies product, please review their privacy policy to learn more about their privacy practices and how they use your information.
Maayins Technologies may maintain a record of sales made via PayPal.com, including the customer's name, email address, order number, and location (state/country). This information is used to verify purchases when a customer contacts us for technical assistance, to request a refund, to obtain a new copy of their purchased file(s), or for other legitimate interests.
Our record of sales may be kept for an indefinite period of time so that we can verify the customer's purchase when they contact us for support as described above.
We don't share your information for marketing purposes. Basically, we would only share your personal information for very limited reasons and in limited circumstances, as follows:
A) PayPal, Etsy. We may be required to share information with the service through which you place your order, to provide you with customer support and comply with our obligations under the service's privacy policy and terms of use.
B) Compliance with laws. We may collect, use, retain, and share your information if we have a good faith belief that it is reasonably necessary to:
For purposes of the EU data protection law, Maayins Technologies is a data controller of your personal information. If you contact us to access, correct or delete personal information held by the above-mentioned third-party services, we will either contact the service for assistance, or request that you send a request directly to that service.
Our blog allows comments to be added by users. Comments are not anonymous. Information that you include in these comments becomes public information (including the name and comment you provide) and you should exercise caution when deciding to disclose any personal information. Submitting a comment requires providing your name and email address. We also store your IP address. The IP address is stored because our anti-spam plugin uses the IP address to help identify spam comments. The email address is not displayed, but the email address and IP address is stored with your comment in our database.
When you send us email, it is stored in our mail server and the Google email accounts we use for communication. We keep records of emails to aid in communication, legal purposes, tax purposes, etc.
If you do not want us to store your email message or you do not want your email stored on Google servers, you should avoid contacting us, or request that we delete your message after reading it. We will normally happily comply to such a request, but if we feel there is an important reason to maintain a record of the message, we will not be obligated to remove it unless required to by law.
We treat all communication from customers regarding orders or technical assistance as private and confidential.
If you send us unsolicited email, we are under no obligation to keep the information confidential or private. If you specifically want us to keep email communication confidential, you should include a clear confidentiality notice with your email. However, unless we have previously signed a non-disclosure agreement, we may not be legally obligated to maintain confidentiality.
In some cases, we may collect information to help improve the experience of users on our site. This might include completing anonymous polls or surveys, rating pages or content that you like, sharing content via social media, or submitting a search.
The surveys we use do not contain or request information that we could use or recognize as personally identifiable information from end users. Demographic information might include age, profession, interests, favorites, etc. This information would be used to help us know how best to tailor our content to the interests of our users.
Information from anonymous surveys might be shared or published, but only on an aggregate basis (meaning statistics like 65% of our users are female). This information cannot be used to identify you.
We do not collect sensitive personal information such as race, religion, or political affiliations. We do not collect sensitive information such as social security numbers and birth dates.
The above pertains to our own data handling procedures.
Children's privacy is a major concern to us.
See the sections above to learn what type of information is used on this site and by third parties, such as cookies, ip addresses, and the info in a typical browser request, which may be used by third party advertisers as "persistent identifiers." If you are concerned about the use of persistent identifiers, please only access this website with a browser that blocks the use of cookies and limits what information your browser sends automatically to websites.
We do not knowingly collect other personal information from children under the age of 13. If we learn that we have personal information on a child under the age of 13, we will delete that information from our systems.
We encourage parents to go online with their kids. Here are a few tips to help make a child's online experience safer:
