Privacy Policy

Last updated: 14 November 2026. Short version: no account, no tracking, no history. Files are deleted after 15 minutes.

What we don’t collect

No account, no name, no email. No analytics or advertising trackers and no tracking cookies. We don’t keep a history of the videos you download.

What our server handles

The link you paste, to fetch the video from the site it comes from.

The prepared file, kept on our server for up to 15 minutes so you can download it, then deleted.

Your IP address, kept in memory only to enforce fair-use limits (for example, how many downloads run at once), and written to our server logs with the time and the page or feature used. Logs are used to keep the service secure and working, and are deleted after 14 days.

Stored on your device

If you choose dark mode, that choice is saved in your browser (local storage). While a download is running, its progress is kept in this browser tab (session storage) so a reload doesn’t lose it; it disappears when you close the tab. You can clear both in your browser settings at any time.

Other sites

To prepare a file, our server contacts the site the video comes from (for example YouTube). YouTube thumbnails are loaded by your browser directly from YouTube’s image servers; thumbnails from other sites are loaded through our server. Those sites have their own privacy policies.

Children

YTPocket is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect their data.

Your rights

Because we keep almost nothing, there is usually nothing to access or delete. For any privacy question: contact@ytpocket.com
