Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 8, 2026
Overview
Thumbnail Downloader ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our free YouTube thumbnail extraction tool.
Information We Do Not Collect
Our tool is designed with privacy as a core principle. We do not:
- Require user registration or accounts
- Collect personal information such as names, emails, or phone numbers
- Store YouTube video URLs or thumbnail images on our servers
- Use cookies for tracking or advertising purposes
- Share any data with third parties
How Our Tool Works
When you enter a YouTube URL, our system extracts the video ID and constructs direct links to publicly available thumbnail images hosted on YouTube's servers (img.youtube.com). All thumbnail images remain on YouTube's infrastructure — we do not download, store, or process them on our servers.
Analytics
We may use privacy-focused analytics to understand general usage patterns and improve our service. This data is anonymized and cannot be used to identify individual users.
Third-Party Services
Our service interacts with YouTube's public thumbnail API (img.youtube.com) to retrieve thumbnail URLs. This interaction is subject to Google's Privacy Policy.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
