Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to YouTube Utils ("we", "our", or "us"). Your privacy is important to us, and we are committed to being transparent about how our website works. This Privacy Policy explains what information is collected when you use our free YouTube tools.

2. What We Don't Collect

We do not collect, store, or process any personal information or user data. Specifically:

  • We do not require accounts, registrations, or sign-ups
  • We do not store YouTube video URLs or video IDs you enter
  • We do not save thumbnails, captions, or any content you download
  • We do not collect names, email addresses, or contact information (unless you email us)
  • All data entered into our tools is cleared when you leave or refresh the page

3. Cookies and Advertising

We use cookies solely for advertising purposes through Google AdSense. These cookies help display relevant ads based on your browsing activity. We use a consent management platform (Cookiebot) to ensure cookies are only set after you have given your explicit consent.

You can manage or withdraw your consent at any time using the cookie preferences link in the footer of our site.

Google AdSense

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on our website. Google may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our site or other websites. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings.

You can control cookie preferences through our cookie consent banner or your browser settings. For more details, see our Cookie Policy.

4. Automatically Collected Information

Like most websites, our hosting provider may automatically log basic technical information when you visit, such as:

  • IP address
  • Browser type and version
  • Operating system
  • Pages visited and time spent
  • Referring website

This information is used solely for technical purposes such as detecting errors, preventing abuse, and maintaining site functionality. We do not use this data to identify individual users.

5. How Our Tools Work

Our tools process data in real time with no permanent storage. Depending on the tool, processing happens either directly in your browser or via our secure API. In both cases:

  • Only publicly available YouTube data is accessed
  • No data you enter is stored on our servers at any point
  • Results are returned directly to your browser
  • When you leave or refresh the page, all data is cleared

6. YouTube and Third-Party Services

Our tools access publicly available YouTube data either directly or via our secure API. We do not store or collect your YouTube account information.

Important: Users are responsible for complying with YouTube's Terms of Service. Our tools are intended for lawful use only.

7. Data Security

Since we don't collect or store personal data, there is no user data to secure on our servers. However, we implement standard security measures to protect our website infrastructure.

8. Your Rights

Since we don't collect personal information, there is no personal data to access, correct, or delete. However, you have the right to:

  • Disable cookies through your browser settings
  • Opt out of personalized advertising via Google's settings
  • Contact us with any privacy concerns

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page. Continued use of our website after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
