Privacy Policy

Last Updated: August 24, 2026

At YTDLP Web ("we," "our," or "us"), we prioritize your privacy and aim to handle your information with care and transparency. This Privacy Policy outlines what information we collect, how it gets used, and your rights concerning your data.

1. Data Collection & Usage

We believe in data minimization. The core of our service functions efficiently without requiring extensive personal data collection.

• URL Processing: When you submit a URL, it is processed solely to provide the requested service. Processed media is automatically deleted, and we do not maintain permanent storage.
• Account Information: If you register for an account or subscribe to our premium services, we collect necessary basic details (e.g., your email address and encrypted password hashes). Your payment data (when upgrading) is solely processed by verified third-party payment processors—we do not store or process your sensitive credit card information on our servers.

2. Logging & Service Integrity

To ensure system stability and protect against abuse (such as scraping, rate-limit abuse, and Denial of Service), we maintain basic server logs.

• Server Logs: Our firewalls and request validators temporarily log standard HTTP requests. This data includes standard information, such as IP address, User-Agent, request timestamps, and response sizes.
• Client-Side Error Logs: We may temporarily collect anonymous JavaScript error reports (such as error messages, page URLs, and browser User-Agent) to diagnose and resolve frontend stability issues.
• Anti-Abuse Mechanisms: These server logs are frequently rotated and deleted. They exist strictly for preventing abuse, mitigating bot access, and enforcing service security boundaries.

3. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

We use essential cookies and tracking mechanisms purely to maintain user sessions and provide core service functions:

• Authentication Cookies: We utilize encrypted cookies and JWT tokens to keep you logged into the application interface securely, avoiding recurrent prompts.
• Analytics & Metrics: We collect anonymous, aggregated usage metrics to understand feature performance and improve system reliability. We do not track individual users across other websites or share data for advertising purposes.
• Managing Cookies: You can manage or block cookies via your browser settings. However, doing so may prevent you from staying signed in or saving your preferences.

4. Third-Party Sharing

We do not "sell" your personal data. The only circumstances under which we might share the limited data we have include providing it safely to service providers under strict obligations (such as payment processing) or complying with explicit legal obligations and warrants from applicable law enforcement.

5. Reaching Out to Us
