Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 5, 2026
QuickSaveVideos ("we", "our", "us") provides a video downloading tool that works with supported platforms such as Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, and others. This policy explains how our Android app handles data, permissions, and third-party services.
1. Data We Collect
We collect no personal data on our servers. The app operates as follows:
- Video URLs — URLs you paste or copy are sent to our server solely to process the download. They are not stored permanently.
- No accounts — The app does not require registration, login, or account creation.
- No personal information — We do not collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, or location data.
2. Permissions Used
- Internet — Required to send download requests to our server and fetch video files.
- System Alert Window (Overlay) — Used to show a floating bubble for one-tap downloads. No content is displayed other than the bubble icon. You can enable or disable this in the app settings.
- Notifications — Used to show download progress and completion status. You can manage these in your device settings.
- Clipboard — Read access to clipboard when you tap the overlay bubble, so we can detect a copied video URL. This is only read while the app is actively processing a tap. We do not store clipboard contents.
- Storage (Android 9 and below) — Used to save downloaded videos to your device gallery. On Android 10+ we use MediaStore APIs and do not request storage permissions.
3. Third-Party Services
3.1 Google AdMob
This app uses Google AdMob to serve advertisements. AdMob may collect and process data including:
- Advertising ID (resettable by the user in device settings)
- Device type, OS version, and network state
- Approximate location (non-GPS, derived from IP)
- Ad interactions (views, clicks)
AdMob's privacy policy is available at https://policies.google.com/privacy. You can opt out of interest-based ads via your device's Ads settings.
3.2 Server-Side Processing
Download requests are processed by our backend using yt-dlp. The video URL is sent to our server, processed, and the resulting file is streamed back to your device. No personal data is retained on the server.
4. Data Storage & Retention
- On-device — Downloaded videos are saved to your device's gallery. You can delete them at any time using any file manager or gallery app.
- On-server — Temporary download files are stored for up to 1 hour before being automatically deleted. No user data is permanently stored.
- SharedPreferences — The app stores your server URL setting locally on your device. This is not sent to us or any third party.
5. Children's Privacy
This app is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided data, contact us and we will delete it.
6. Your Rights
Depending on your location (e.g., GDPR in Europe, CCPA in California), you may have the right to:
- Request information about data collected
- Request deletion of your data
- Opt out of data collection for advertising
Since we collect no personal data, these rights are inherently satisfied. For any concerns, contact us.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted here with an updated "Last updated" date. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the new policy.
