# Marketo Data Access

Security is important to us at FeedOtter. We’ve worked closely with Marketo’s API team to ensure we have access to as little of your data as possible. Here you can read what Marketo data FeedOtter has access to.

### Marketo API / Role Permissions Needed <a href="#headline-139-21033" id="headline-139-21033"></a>

FeedOtter requires **two** permissions to operate. Both of them pertain only to Marketo Assets:

* **Approve Assets** — used to approve emails in your Marketo account.
* **Read-Write Assets** — used to create emails, email templates, folders, default programs, and email programs in your Marketo account.

In certain advanced Marketo installations that use Workspaces, FeedOtter may also require permission to create emails and email templates in the Design Studio. These permissions look like this:

* **Access Design Studio**
  * Access Emails
    * Edit Email&#x20;
    * Approve Email
  * Access Email Template
    * Approve Email Template
    * Edit Email Template

### Leads and Personal Information <a href="#headline-149-21033" id="headline-149-21033"></a>

{% hint style="warning" %}
FeedOtter NEVER accesses your leads, email addresses, employees, or company information. We only create and manipulate assets.
