1. Information We Collect

1.1 Information You Provide

When you use YTDownloader, you provide YouTube video URLs for processing. We do not require you to create an account, provide your name, email address, or any other personally identifiable information to use the download service.

If you contact us via our Contact page, you may voluntarily provide your name, email address, and message content. This information is used solely to respond to your inquiry.

Like most websites, we may automatically collect certain technical information when you visit our site, including:

• Browser type and version
• Operating system
• Referring website URL
• Pages visited and time spent on each page
• General geographic location (country/region level)

This information is collected through analytics services (such as Vercel Analytics) and is used in aggregate to improve the Service. It does not personally identify you.

1.3 Information We Do NOT Collect

• We do not store the YouTube URLs you submit for download
• We do not store or log your download history on our servers

• Respond to support inquiries and contact form submissions
• Monitor for and prevent abuse or misuse of the Service
• Analyze aggregate usage patterns (e.g., most popular pages, traffic sources)

3. Data Storage and Security

We take reasonable measures to protect the information we collect. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security of your data.

Download history is stored locally in your browser's local storage and is never transmitted to our servers. You can clear this data at any time through the History feature in the navigation bar.

4. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services:

• Vercel Analytics— for anonymous, privacy-friendly website analytics. Vercel's privacy policy can be found on their website.

We do not sell, trade, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.

5. Cookies

YTDownloader uses minimal cookies necessary for the website to function properly. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies. Our analytics provider (Vercel Analytics) is designed to be privacy-friendly and does not use cookies for tracking.

6. Children's Privacy

YTDownloader is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to remove that information.

7. Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Access, update, or delete any personal information you've provided (e.g., through the contact form)
• Clear your locally stored download history at any time through the History feature
• Opt out of analytics tracking by using browser extensions or settings that block analytics scripts
