Last Updated: August 16, 2026

1. Introduction & Overview

Welcome to Video Downloader – Fast & HD ("we", "our", or "us"). We provide a fast, secure, and user-friendly mobile utility application for Android that enables users to parse and download publicly available social media videos (including TikTok, Instagram, Twitter/X, and Facebook), browse web content with a built-in browser, preview and play videos offline, and optionally use a custom home launcher interface.

We are dedicated to safeguarding your privacy and ensuring transparency in all our data practices. This Privacy Policy outlines what information is processed, how permissions are utilized, and how third-party SDKs operate within our app, in full compliance with the Google Play Developer Program Policies (Google Play User Data Policy), Meta / Facebook Developer Platform Policies, and international data protection laws (GDPR / CCPA).

2. Zero Personal Data Collection (Privacy by Design)

We do not collect, harvest, store, or sell any personally identifiable information (PII). When using our app:

  • No Account Required: You do not need to register, log in, or provide your name, email address, phone number, or passwords.
  • No Contacts, SMS, or Call Logs: We never request or access your private contacts, messages, call records, calendar, camera, or microphone.
  • No Precise Location Tracking: We do not track or record your precise GPS coordinates.

Zero Cloud Media Access: All video downloading, file storage, and offline video playback occur strictly locally on your Android device. We never inspect, upload, monitor, or transmit your private downloads, photos, or media files to external cloud servers.

3. Video Downloading, Link Extraction & YouTube Disclaimer

When you paste a publicly accessible social media video URL (TikTok, Instagram, Twitter/X, Facebook):

  • Real-time Extraction: The pasted URL is sent securely via HTTPS to an automated link-extraction endpoint (RapidAPI) solely to retrieve the direct streamable video/audio download link and metadata (such as video title, thumbnail, duration, and quality options).
  • No Search or Link History Logging: We do not associate the requested URL with your identity or store your download history on remote servers.

⚠️ YouTube Download Policy Disclaimer: In strict compliance with Google Play Store Policies and YouTube Terms of Service, downloading videos or audio from YouTube is strictly unsupported and disabled within this app.

Copyright & Fair Use: Users are solely responsible for respecting intellectual property laws. Video Downloader – Fast & HD is intended for personal, non-commercial use of public content. Please ensure you have appropriate permission from the content owner before downloading or redistributing any media.

4. Home Launcher & Onboarding Personalization

  • Optional Home Launcher Role (ROLE_HOME): If you choose to enable the custom launcher feature, the app queries your device's installed applications via Android's local PackageManager to display your app drawer and launch your favorite apps. This list of installed apps is processed entirely on-device and is never transmitted to our servers or third parties.
  • Onboarding Preferences: Non-personal personalization choices made during onboarding (such as preferred video categories, language, or age/gender range preferences) are stored locally in your device's SharedPreferences to personalize your local UI experience.

5. Android System Permissions & Declarations

To provide core downloading, playback, and utility features, the app requests the following standard Android permissions:

  • android.permission.INTERNET & ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE: Required to establish secure network connections for downloading media, loading web pages in the built-in browser, and loading advertisements.
  • Storage / Media Access (DownloadManager): Used exclusively to save requested video and audio files into your device's standard downloads directory and to read locally saved videos for offline playback in the built-in video player.
  • com.google.android.gms.permission.AD_ID (Advertising ID): Allows verified mobile ad network SDKs (Google AdMob and Meta Audience Network) to display non-intrusive, relevant advertisements and prevent ad fraud.

6. Third-Party Services & Advertising SDKs

Our app integrates verified third-party Software Development Kits (SDKs) to provide in-app advertising, crash diagnostics, and remote configurations. These third parties process data under their independent privacy policies:

Third-Party Partner Purpose & Service Privacy Policy & Opt-Out
Google AdMob & Google Play Services Mobile In-App Advertising & Ad Attribution Google Privacy Policy
Google Firebase (Crashlytics & Analytics) App Stability, Crash Reporting & Diagnostics Firebase Privacy Overview
Meta / Facebook Audience Network Mobile Ad Delivery & Ad Analytics Meta Data Policy

You can manage your personalized ad preferences or reset your Advertising ID directly in your device settings under Settings > Google > Ads or through Google Ads Settings and Facebook Ad Preferences.

7. Data Retention & Data Deletion (Google Play Compliance)

Because we do not store your personal information on our servers, we have no cloud data to retain or delete. All user-generated content (downloaded videos, bookmarks, and preferences) resides exclusively on your local device.

How to Delete Your Data:

  • Delete Downloaded Videos: Tap the 3-dots icon on any video in the "Downloads" tab or "My Videos" screen and select Delete Video, or remove the file directly from your device file manager.
  • Clear App Cache & Preferences: Navigate to Android Settings > Apps > Video Downloader > Storage > Clear Storage / Clear Cache.
  • Uninstalling the App: Uninstalling the application completely removes all locally stored app configurations and cached data.
  • Advertising Identifier: Reset or delete your advertising identifier at any time via Android Settings > Privacy > Ads > Delete Advertising ID.

8. Children's Privacy Protection (COPPA & GDPR)

Our application is designed for a general audience and is not targeted at children under 13 years of age (or under 16 in the European Economic Area). We do not knowingly solicit or collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us immediately so we can take appropriate corrective measures.

9. Security Measures

We employ industry-standard technical security practices, including TLS/HTTPS encryption for all network requests, ensuring that your data in transit remains protected against eavesdropping and tampering.

10. Policy Changes & Contact Information

We may periodically update this Privacy Policy to reflect app enhancements or evolving legal standards. The updated policy will be accessible within the app and on our official support channels.

If you have any questions, feedback, or compliance inquiries regarding this Privacy Policy, please contact our support team:
