Privacy Policy

Summary

The CreatorPilot – Thumbnail Downloader for YouTube browser extension does not collect, store, sell or share any personal data. Everything the extension does happens inside your own browser.

What the extension does

The extension adds a Thumbnail button to YouTube video pages, a popup window and a right-click menu option. These let you download or copy the thumbnail image of a YouTube video in the size you choose.

Data we do not collect

The extension does not collect or send to us or to anyone else:

• Personal information such as your name, email address or age
• Your browsing history or the pages you visit
• Your clicks, keystrokes or other activity
• Your location or IP address
• Any passwords, payment details or messages

The extension has no analytics, no tracking code and no user accounts.

How the extension works with your data

• To show thumbnails, the extension reads the video ID from the address of the YouTube tab you have open. This happens only in your browser and the ID is never saved or sent to us.
• Thumbnail images are loaded directly from YouTube's image server (i.ytimg.com), operated by Google. That request is handled by Google under Google's own privacy policy.
• Downloaded images are saved by your browser to your computer. Copied images and links go to your clipboard. We never receive them.

Permissions the extension uses

• downloads: to save the thumbnail image you choose to your computer.
• contextMenus: to add the "Download YouTube thumbnail" option to the right-click menu.
• Access to youtube.com: to show the Thumbnail button on video pages and read the video ID of the open tab.
• Access to i.ytimg.com: to check which thumbnail sizes exist and to fetch the image you download or copy.

Our website

When you install or uninstall the extension, or click one of its links, our website (youtubethumbnails-downloader.com) opens in a new tab. That visit is a normal website visit. Our hosting provider, Cloudflare, may process standard technical data such as your IP address to deliver and protect the website.

Children

The extension is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect data from anyone.

Changes to this policy

If the extension ever starts handling data differently, we will update this page and the date below before the change takes effect.
