Privacy Policy
Last updated April 22, 2026
The Short Version
We do not collect your personal information. We do not store the videos you download. We do not track what you search for. You use the tool, you get your file, and that is the end of it.
Who We Are
SocialGraber is a free online video downloader available at https://socialgraber.com. We provide a tool that lets users download publicly available videos from supported platforms for personal, offline use. If you have any questions about this policy, contact us at contact@socialgraber.com.
What Information We Collect
We collect as little information as possible. Here is a complete list:
- Video URLs: When you paste a URL into our tool, it is sent to our server to fetch video information. We do not store these URLs after the request completes.
- Server logs: Our web server automatically records basic access data including your IP address, browser type, referring page, and pages visited. This is standard server logging used only for security and uptime monitoring.
- No account data: We do not ask you to register or log in, so we hold no account data, email addresses or passwords.
- No downloaded content: We do not keep copies of videos you download. Files are streamed directly to your device.
How We Use Information
The server log data we collect is used only for:
- Monitoring server health and uptime
- Identifying and blocking abusive traffic or attacks
- Debugging technical issues
We do not use this data for advertising, profiling or any commercial purpose. We do not sell or share it with third parties.
Cookies
SocialGraber does not use its own tracking or advertising cookies. If Google Analytics or Google AdSense is active on the site, those services may set their own cookies in your browser. You can read about how Google handles data at policies.google.com/privacy.
You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time. Disabling cookies will not affect your ability to use our video downloader.
Third-Party Services
- Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our site in aggregate — which pages are popular, what devices people use, and where traffic comes from. This data is anonymised and does not identify individual users.
- Google AdSense: We display ads through Google AdSense to cover server costs. Google may use cookies to show relevant ads based on your browsing history. You can opt out of personalised ads at adssettings.google.com.
- Video Processing: When you request a video, our server communicates with the source platform (YouTube, Instagram, etc.) to fetch the video stream. We do not share your personal information with these platforms beyond what a normal browser request would send.
Data Retention
Server access logs are retained for up to 30 days for security purposes and then automatically deleted. We do not retain any other user data.
Your Rights
Since we do not collect personal data beyond standard server logs, there is very little data to request or delete. If you have concerns about data we may hold about you, contact us at contact@socialgraber.com and we will respond within 30 days.
Children's Privacy
This site is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect any information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it immediately.
Changes to This Policy
If we update this policy, we will change the date at the top of this page. We recommend checking this page periodically if you use our service regularly.
