This Privacy Policy explains how ThumbGrab ("we", "us", "our") handles information when you use www.youtube-thumbnail-extractor.com (the "Service"). By using the Service, you agree to this policy.

Information we collect

We built this Service to collect as little as possible:

  • Thumbnails & links: When you paste a YouTube URL, we fetch the thumbnail live from YouTube and stream it to you. We do not store the URLs you enter or the images you download.
  • Anonymous usage stats: We keep aggregate counts (such as number of visits, lookups, and downloads) to understand how the tool is used. These counts are not tied to your identity.
  • Server logs: Like most websites, our host may automatically record standard technical data (IP address, browser type, time of request) for security and reliability.

Cookies

We use a small amount of local storage to remember your theme preference (light/dark). Our advertising and analytics partners may set their own cookies, as described below.

Third-party advertising

We use third-party advertising companies to serve ads when you visit the Service. These companies may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.

  • Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on our site. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this and/or other sites.
  • You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
  • You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising at aboutads.info/choices.

Analytics

We may use privacy-respecting analytics to measure traffic. Any analytics data is aggregated and does not identify individual users.

Children's privacy

The Service is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.

Your choices

You can clear cookies and local storage in your browser at any time. You can opt out of personalized ads using the links above.

We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with a new "last updated" date.
