Privacy Policy for Video Downloader
- No Permanent Storage: Video URLs submitted for downloading are processed in-memory. We never archive or store downloaded video files on our permanent database disks.
- No Registration Required: The service is completely free and requires no account creation or login.
- No Invasive Software: Runs 100% inside your web browser without requiring extensions, executables, or installer downloads.
1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy applies to the Video Downloader web tool, hosted at videodl.codjin.com and operated by CODJIN (“we”, “us”, or “our”). This document explains how media URLs and technical requests are handled when using our browser utility.
2. In-Memory Media Processing
When a user provides a public media link into Video Downloader:
- The link is parsed transiently in server memory solely to identify available resolution streams, format containers (MP4, WEBM), and audio bitrates.
- The resulting media stream is piped directly to the user's browser download manager.
- We do not maintain permanent copies of downloaded content on our servers. Transient cache blocks are immediately flushed upon download completion.
3. Information We Collect
To prevent service abuse and ensure high availability, our edge servers automatically record standard server access logs:
- IP address (anonymized/truncated for DDoS mitigation and rate limiting).
- Browser user-agent and operating system type.
- Timestamp and HTTP status code of the request.
These logs are retained for short operational windows solely for security, rate-limiting, and error diagnostics before automated deletion.
4. Cookies and Local Storage
Video Downloader does not use persistent tracking cookies or third-party advertising cookies. We may use HTML5 local storage strictly to remember interface preferences, such as selected dark/light theme mode.
5. Permitted Use & Copyright Notice
Video Downloader is provided strictly for personal, non-commercial archiving of content that users own or have explicit authorization to download under fair use guidelines. Users are responsible for ensuring compliance with applicable copyright laws and source platform terms.
