Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Information You Provide
GrabbVideos does not require you to create an account or provide personal information to use the service. The only input we process is the video URL you paste into the tool. This URL is used solely to fetch and stream the requested video and is not stored or logged after the request completes.

1.2 Automatically Collected Information
Like most web services, our server may collect standard server log data, including:

• IP address (anonymised or truncated where possible)
• Browser type and version (User-Agent string)
• Pages visited and timestamps
• Referring URL

This information is used exclusively for security monitoring, abuse prevention, and aggregate traffic analysis. It is not used to identify individual users.

1.3 Cookies & Local Storage
GrabbVideos itself does not set first-party cookies for tracking purposes. However, third-party services we use (see Section 4) may set their own cookies on your device. You can control cookie behaviour through your browser settings.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information collected to:

• Provide and maintain the GrabbVideos service.
• Detect and prevent fraud, abuse, and security threats.
• Analyse aggregate usage patterns to improve the service.
• Comply with legal obligations.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party.

3. Video URLs & Content

Video URLs submitted to GrabbVideos are processed in real time to retrieve and stream media content. We do not:

• Store, cache, or archive any submitted video URLs.
• Download or retain copies of processed videos on our servers.
• Associate submitted URLs with individual users or IP addresses in any persistent database.

All processing is ephemeral — once the download stream ends, no data is retained.

4. Third-Party Advertising & Services

4.1 Google AdSense
We use Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google may use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to show you ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your interests. You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings or www.aboutads.info.

4.2 Adsterra
We may use Adsterra to serve additional display, native, and pop-under advertisements. Adsterra may use cookies and tracking technologies to deliver relevant ads. For more information, please review Adsterra's Privacy Policy.

4.3 Tailwind CSS CDN
Our frontend uses the Tailwind CSS CDN, which may log standard HTTP request data (IP, User-Agent) as part of normal CDN operation.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party service providers. We encourage you to review their respective privacy policies.

5. Data Retention

We do not maintain any user-specific database. Server logs that may contain IP addresses are retained for a maximum of 30 days for security and abuse-prevention purposes, after which they are automatically deleted.

6. Your Rights (GDPR & CCPA)

Depending on your location, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:

• Right of access — request a copy of the data we hold about you.
• Right to erasure — request deletion of your personal data.
• Right to object — object to processing based on legitimate interests.
• Right to opt-out of sale (California residents) — we do not sell personal data.
• Right to lodge a complaint — with your local data protection authority.

Because we collect minimal data and do not maintain user accounts, most requests can be satisfied by confirming we hold no identifiable data about you. To submit a request, contact us at privacy@grabbvideos.com.

7. Children's Privacy

GrabbVideos is not directed at 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 delete it promptly.

8. Security

We implement industry-standard technical measures (HTTPS, server hardening, rate limiting) to protect against unauthorised access, alteration, or disclosure of any information processed by our service. However, no internet transmission is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. International Transfers

GrabbVideos is operated globally. If you access the service from outside the country where our servers are hosted, your information may be transferred across international borders. By using GrabbVideos, you consent to this transfer, which will be conducted in accordance with applicable data protection laws.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of the page. Your continued use of GrabbVideos after any changes take effect constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
