Privacy Policy

SnapVideo is a free, web-based service that does not require user registration, account creation, or sign-in. We do not collect, request, or store personally identifiable information (PII) such as your full name, email address, physical address, phone number, payment details, or Instagram passwords. You can use our service freely without revealing your identity.

Like most modern web services, our servers automatically record standard technical log entries transmitted by your web browser when accessing snapvideo.to. This technical data includes:

• Internet Protocol (IP) address (anonymized or hashed where technically feasible).
• Browser type, version, and user-agent string.
• Operating system and device platform.
• Date, time, and duration of the request.
• Referring URL and exit pages.
• The public Instagram URL submitted for media extraction.

This information is processed temporarily in transient memory solely to deliver requested files, maintain server security, prevent distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, enforce rate limits, and resolve technical bugs. We do not correlate server log data with individual identities.

SnapVideo operates on a strict zero-retention policy for third-party media files. Our servers act solely as a technical proxy to resolve public Instagram media URLs into direct download streams.

We do not store, archive, cache permanently, or replicate downloaded videos, Reels, photos, or Stories on our infrastructure. Once the media stream is initiated and transferred to your client device, all session parameters are cleared immediately.

SnapVideo does not use tracking or profiling cookies. We use standard browser Local Storage strictly for essential user interface preferences, such as remembering your selected language and display theme (light or dark mode).

You can inspect, manage, or delete local storage and cookies at any time through your browser settings without impacting your ability to use SnapVideo.

To support server infrastructure costs and keep SnapVideo freely accessible worldwide, we may partner with third-party advertising networks, including Google AdSense.

• Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites across the Internet.
• Google's use of advertising cookies (including the DoubleClick cookie) enables it and its partners to serve ads to our visitors based on their visit to snapvideo.to and other sites on the Internet.
• Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings at: https://adssettings.google.com.
• Alternatively, users can opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) opt-out page at https://optout.networkadvertising.org or the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA) at https://www.aboutads.info/choices.
• Users in the European Union may manage advertising cookie consents through the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance (EDAA) portal at https://www.youronlinechoices.eu.

Protecting children's privacy is of paramount importance to us. SnapVideo is designed for general audiences and is not directed at children under the age of 13 (or under 16 in the European Economic Area).

We do not knowingly collect, solicit, or maintain personal information from children. If a parent or guardian discovers that a child has submitted information to us, please notify us at contact@snapvideo.to, and we will promptly purge such data from our records.

Depending on your geographic location, you may have specific statutory privacy rights:

• European Economic Area & UK (GDPR): You have the right to request access to, rectification of, or erasure of any technical data we may hold, as well as the right to restrict or object to processing and request data portability. Inquiries can be submitted to our privacy team at contact@snapvideo.to.

• California Consumers (CCPA/CPRA): California residents have the right to know what categories of personal data are processed and request deletion. SnapVideo does NOT sell, rent, trade, or share personal information with third parties for monetary or other valuable consideration, nor do we build consumer profiles for behavioral advertising.

We do not discriminate against any user for exercising their statutory privacy rights.

We deploy industry-standard technical safeguards to protect all data transmissions. All communication between your web browser and SnapVideo is encrypted end-to-end using modern Transport Layer Security (TLS 1.2 / TLS 1.3) protocols. While no transmission method over the Internet is 100% infallible, we regularly audit our infrastructure to safeguard system integrity.

SnapVideo may contain links to external third-party websites or services (such as Instagram or advertiser sites). We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or data processing activities of external websites. We advise users to review the respective privacy statements of any third-party sites they visit.

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect technological advancements, operational changes, or legal obligations. When updates occur, the 'Last updated' date at the top of this page will be revised accordingly. Your continued use of SnapVideo following posted revisions signifies your acknowledgement of the updated terms.

If you have questions, concerns, or requests regarding this Privacy Policy or our data protection measures, please contact our Data Protection Officer at: contact@snapvideo.to.
