YTDownloader cookies how to manage Cookies

Cookies are tiny text files (or similar browser storage) that a website can save on your device. They can remember a setting, keep a short session healthy, or help measure whether a page crashed. They are not a virus, and they are not a YouTube login. This Cookie Policy covers the YouTube Video Downloader website, including the homepage paste box and the Legal pages.

Because this is a free youtube downloader with no sign up, we do not use cookies to keep you “logged into a membership.” There is no membership. A cookie might still exist so the site can load, so a form can work, or so we can see that the Contact page threw an error.

If you only came here to save a file: click here to download the YT video using the box on this page. Blocking every cookie may still let you paste a link, or it may break the form — that depends on the browser and which cookies you kill.

We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the YouTube downloader, to keep security features working, to remember a non-account preference if we add one, and — if measurement tools are active — to learn which pages are slow or which countries hit errors.

We do not use cookies to auction a list of “this person downloaded video X” to advertisers. We do not need that to run a paste box. See the Privacy Policy for the broader data picture; this page is only about cookies and similar storage.

Some cookies last only until you close the browser (session). Others last for a set time (persistent) until they expire or you delete them.

Modern sites may use localStorage, sessionStorage, or indexed data in the browser for the same kinds of jobs as cookies: a draft field, a UI flag, a cache. This policy treats those as “similar technologies.” The Privacy Policy calls them out too.

The YouTube URL you type into the downloader lives in the page until you submit. That is normal form behavior. Do not paste passwords. On a shared computer, clear the field and your download history when you are done.

Service workers or caches, if we use them later to make the site faster, would store static assets (icons, CSS), not a secret library of other people’s videos.

If you click through to youtube.com, YouTube may set its own cookies. That visit is under Google’s policies, not this Cookie Policy. Embedding or fetching public video metadata may involve requests to infrastructure that is not our domain; those parties have their own notices.

Hosting, CDN, analytics or error-tracking vendors we use as processors may set cookies when their scripts run. We choose vendors that are allowed to process data to run this YouTube downloader, not to build their own dossier of your downloads for resale.

We prefer first-party fonts and images when we can. If a third-party font or tag is present, your browser’s cookie settings apply to that party as well.

Use your browser’s settings to delete existing cookies, block third-party cookies, or block this site entirely. Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Edge all document this under Privacy or Cookies. On iPhone, look at Settings → Safari. On Android, look at the Chrome site settings. That is how to remove ytdownloader site data for this website. How to uninstall ytdownloader as a Windows program is different — this site never installed an EXE.

Some browsers send a Do Not Track (DNT) header. Global Privacy Control (GPC) is a newer signal some regions treat as an opt-out of sale or share. There is still no single worldwide rule for how every site must honor every flag.

We do not sell a list of your YouTube downloads as a product. Where a privacy law requires us to honor an opt-out of “sale” or “share,” we will treat a recognized GPC signal as that opt-out for this YouTube downloader site to the extent the law applies.

If a measurement cookie is the only optional cookie in play, the practical equivalent of opting out is blocking analytics cookies in the browser. That is always available, even when headers are ignored by other websites.

We will update this Cookie Policy when we add, remove, or replace cookies in a way that changes the story above. The “Last updated” stamp is the version that applies. Continued use of the YouTube video downloader after a posted change means you have the new notice available to read.
