This Privacy Policy explains how Video Downloader VeeVee (the “Extension,” “VeeVee,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) accesses, processes, stores, and shares information when you install or use the Extension. It also explains the choices available to you.
The Extension’s single purpose is to help users detect, preview, manage, and download video or audio files that they are legally entitled to save from websites they choose to visit. The Extension must access certain website and network information to perform this user-facing function. We do not use this information for advertising, profiling, credit decisions, or the sale of personal data.
By installing or using the Extension, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy. Where the Extension presents a service-specific consent notice, the relevant processing will not begin until you select the affirmative consent button.
This Policy applies to the Video Downloader VeeVee browser extension, including its popup, side panel, built-in media player, download workflow, and supporting services operated for the Extension.
This Policy does not control the privacy practices of websites from which you choose to download media, media platforms, content delivery networks, external video-processing services, Google Chrome, or other third parties. Those services process information under their own terms and privacy policies.
Chrome Web Store policy treats information accessed, used, transmitted, or stored by an extension as handled data even when it is processed only on the user’s device. For that reason, this section describes both local processing and network transmissions.
To detect media on websites you visit, the Extension may process:
The Extension uses this information only to identify media available in the user’s current browsing context, display it in the Extension, prepare a download, resume or complete a requested download, and prevent unsupported or restricted sources from being processed.
Some websites deliver video information through API or form requests rather than through ordinary media elements. To identify the video selected or displayed to the user, the Extension may locally inspect relevant request bodies or form parameters. The current build uses this capability for limited video-related request flows on services such as Instagram, Facebook, and VK.
The Extension does not use request-body access to read passwords, payment details, private messages, or unrelated form submissions. Request data that does not match a supported media-detection flow is not used to provide a download result. The Extension does not sell request data or use it for advertising or behavioral profiling.
When a website makes media available only within the user’s existing session, the Extension may make an additional request to that same website or its associated content-delivery service. In that situation, Chrome may automatically include cookies belonging to the requested domain. The Extension may also use service tokens or anti-forgery values already present in the website’s page or requests, such as CSRF tokens, application identifiers, bearer tokens, page signatures, or similar service-generated values.
This may occur for supported flows involving Instagram, Facebook, X/Twitter, Vimeo, VK, and other source websites. These values are used only to request media information or files that are available in the user’s current session. The Extension does not request or store your account password, does not use the chrome.cookies API to read your browser’s cookie database, and does not intentionally send one service’s authentication information to VeeVee or to an unrelated video-processing service.
When you start a download, the Extension may fetch the selected media file or the segments of an HLS or DASH stream. It may temporarily store segments in browser-managed local storage, assemble them into a downloadable file, track download progress, and create a temporary local URL for the completed file.
If an HLS playlist specifies an encryption key URL, the Extension may retrieve that key from the media source and use it locally to process the HLS segments. The Extension is not intended to obtain DRM licenses, extract Widevine or PlayReady content keys, bypass paywalls or login restrictions, or provide unauthorized access to protected content.
The Extension may store the following information locally in Chrome storage or IndexedDB:
This local information is used to operate the Extension. It is not used to build an advertising profile.
If you contact us by email or use a support or copyright-report page, you may voluntarily provide information such as your name, email address, organization, message, page URL, or documents supporting a copyright claim. The Extension may open the relevant VeeVee webpage, but information submitted on that webpage is processed for the purpose stated on the form, such as responding to support requests or evaluating a copyright report.
When the Extension contacts a website or online service, that service may automatically receive ordinary network information, including your IP address, date and time, user agent, requested URL, and standard HTTP headers. VeeVee-controlled web servers may retain standard security and access logs for a limited period to maintain reliability, prevent abuse, and investigate operational problems.
The Extension does not contain third-party behavioral analytics code and does not send browsing history to an advertising or analytics platform.
The Extension processes information only as reasonably necessary to:
For TikTok, Instagram, and X/Twitter, the Extension presents a service-specific notice when additional processing is needed. If you select Cancel, the additional processing remains disabled. If you select Allow and reload, the choice is stored locally for that service, the page is reloaded, and processing may then start automatically when matching content is detected, including content embedded in another website and before you click Download.
To obtain downloadable media information, the Extension may:
Requests to these third-party video-processing services and the relevant TikTok endpoints are made without browser credentials. In particular, the Extension configures these requests not to include your browser cookies. A third-party processing service receives the submitted TikTok video URL and ordinary network information such as your IP address and user agent, processes the URL, and returns video information or download links. These services are independently operated and may apply their own privacy and retention practices.
To identify videos available to you on Instagram, the Extension may inspect relevant Instagram API or GraphQL request parameters and make additional HTTPS requests to Instagram. These requests may use your current Instagram session cookies, an Instagram application identifier, and a CSRF token obtained from Instagram. The information is sent to Instagram, not to the external TikTok-processing services.
To identify media attached to a post, the Extension may request post or player information from x.com, api.x.com, and cdn.syndication.twimg.com. Requests to the X API and embedded-post endpoint are configured without browser credentials. When the Extension loads an X/Twitter page to identify its media configuration, the user’s existing session may be used by the browser where required by that service.
For supported Facebook, Vimeo, and VK pages, the Extension may repeat a video-related request to the same platform, retrieve a player configuration, or request media metadata using the current session information available for that platform. The Extension may set or adjust request headers such as Referer or Origin where needed for the media source to respond to the request. This processing is used only to locate media available in the user’s browsing context.
The Extension is designed to detect media on both HTTP and HTTPS pages and in their embedded frames. The fact that the Extension runs on an HTTP page does not mean that browsing information is sent to VeeVee.
VeeVee-controlled services and the external processing endpoints specifically called by the current build use HTTPS. However, if you choose to use the Extension on an HTTP website, or the source page supplies an HTTP media URL, communication with that source website may not be encrypted. The security of a user-selected source website is controlled by that website, not by VeeVee. You should avoid entering sensitive information or downloading confidential media through an unencrypted website.
The Extension may transmit limited information in the following circumstances:
config.veevee.app to obtain configuration values and a blocker list. It may also open pages on veevee.app for welcome, support, copyright reports, privacy information, blog, rating, or donation functions.fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com. If you use casting, the Extension may communicate with Google Cast components and a compatible device as necessary to perform that action.We do not sell user data. We do not transfer user data to advertising platforms, data brokers, or information resellers. We do not use user data for personalized, retargeted, or interest-based advertising, and we do not use it to determine eligibility for credit, loans, employment, housing, insurance, or similar services.
Data handled by the Extension is retained only for as long as needed for the relevant function:
Third-party websites and processing services determine their own retention periods. We do not control their systems.
The current Extension build requests the following permissions because they support its disclosed media-detection and download functions:
These permissions are used only for the Extension’s disclosed single purpose and related operational functions.
We use reasonable administrative and technical measures designed to protect information handled by the Extension. VeeVee-controlled services and the external processing services used by the current build use HTTPS. Service-specific credentials are used only with the corresponding service and are not intentionally disclosed publicly.
Local Extension storage is managed by Chrome and the user’s operating system and is not separately encrypted by VeeVee. No internet service or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Users are responsible for the security of their device, browser profile, source website accounts, and downloaded files.
Video Downloader VeeVee’s use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
In particular:
The Extension is not directed to children under the age at which they may independently consent to data processing in their jurisdiction. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through the Extension. If you believe a child has provided personal information directly to VeeVee, please contact us so that we can review and, where appropriate, delete it.
Websites and third-party services used by the Extension may process information in countries other than the country in which you live. Those countries may have different data-protection laws. Where applicable, VeeVee will take reasonable measures required by law for transfers of personal information under our control.
The Extension is intended only for downloading media that you own, media for which you have the copyright holder’s permission, or media that you are otherwise legally entitled to save. You are responsible for complying with copyright law, website terms, access restrictions, and other applicable requirements.
The Extension is not intended to bypass paywalls, login restrictions, DRM systems, or other access controls, or to enable unauthorized downloading or distribution of protected content. VeeVee may block or discontinue support for websites associated with restricted or protected content.
We may update this Policy when the Extension, applicable law, or Chrome Web Store requirements change. We will post the revised Policy with a new “Last updated” date. If an update introduces materially different data practices, we will provide any additional notice or consent required by applicable law or Chrome Web Store policy before the new processing begins.
