Privacy Policy — fbvids.com | Free Video Downloader

🌍 Jurisdiction: This policy applies to all users worldwide, with specific compliance for GDPR (Europe), CCPA (California), and international privacy laws.

1. Our Commitment to Your Privacy

At fbvids.com, we believe that downloading videos from social media should not require you to sacrifice your privacy. Unlike most online tools that collect your email, track your downloads, or sell your data to advertisers, we have built fbvids.com on a simple principle: we do not collect, store, or share any personal information from our users.

This Privacy Policy explains exactly what data we process, how we protect it, and what rights you have. We encourage you to read this document carefully. If you have any questions, you can contact us through our contact page.

2. What Information We Collect — And What We DON'T Collect

2.1 No Account, No Personal Data

fbvids.com does not require user registration. You can use our entire service without providing your name, email address, phone number, or any other personally identifiable information (PII). We do not ask you to "sign in with Google" or "log in with Facebook".

2.2 Video URLs — Temporary Processing Only

When you paste a video URL (from Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, or X) into our tool, that URL is sent to our server only to fetch the video download links. Here is what happens:

The URL is not stored in any database after processing.
The URL is not logged with your IP address.
The URL is not shared with any third party.
Once the download links are generated and presented to you, the URL is discarded from our server's memory within seconds.

            ✅ Important: We do NOT store the videos you download. Our server fetches the video temporarily, streams it to you, and then deletes any cached data immediately. We are not a video hosting platform.
        

2.3 Automatically Collected Information (Server Logs)

Like almost every website on the internet, our web server automatically records certain technical information when you visit fbvids.com. This information is anonymized and aggregated and cannot be used to identify you personally:

IP Address — Your public IP address is logged by our hosting provider (Hostinger) for security purposes (preventing DDoS attacks and abuse). We do not analyze or store IP addresses beyond standard server logs which rotate every 7-14 days.
Browser Type and Version — e.g., "Chrome 120 on Windows" — to ensure our website displays correctly.
Device Type — e.g., "Mobile" or "Desktop" — for analytics on how users access our service.
Referrer URL — Which website you came from (if any).
Date and Time of Visit — For server performance monitoring.

This log data is never sold, rented, or shared with any third-party marketing companies. We use it solely for:

Diagnosing technical problems
Monitoring server load and performance
Preventing automated abuse or bot attacks
Improving our service based on usage patterns

If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately.

6. Your Privacy Rights (GDPR, CCPA, and More)
