Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 10, 2026

Introduction

YT Thumb Grabber ("we", "us", or "our") operates the website ytthumbgrabber.com. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you use our service.

Information We Collect

We do not collect personal information. Our tool runs entirely in your browser. We do not require account creation, login, or any personal details to use our service.

• No personal data: We do not collect names, email addresses, or payment information.
• No search history: The YouTube URLs you paste are processed client-side and are never sent to or stored on our servers.
• No cookies for tracking: We only use localStorage to remember your theme preference (light/dark mode). Google Analytics may set cookies to distinguish users — see the Analytics section below for details.

Third-Party Services

Our tool fetches thumbnail images directly from YouTube's image servers (img.youtube.com). We may also use public APIs (Invidious, Piped, noembed) to resolve video titles. These third-party services have their own privacy policies.

Analytics

We use Google Analytics (provided by Google LLC) to understand general traffic patterns such as page views, referrers, and user demographics. Google Analytics uses cookies and collects anonymized usage data. No personally identifiable information is intentionally collected through analytics.

You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. For more information, see Google's Privacy Policy.

Data Security

Since we do not collect or store personal data, there is minimal risk to your privacy. All communication with our site is encrypted via HTTPS.

Children's Privacy

Our service is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
