We value transparency and responsible handling of information. This Privacy Policy explains how Reel Downloader for Instagram - FastReel (the “Extension”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) processes information in connection with the Extension’s functionality, operation, and maintenance.

By installing, enabling, accessing, or using the Extension, you acknowledge that you have reviewed and understood this Privacy Policy and agree to the practices described herein.

1. Policy Scope and Third-Party Services

This Privacy Policy applies exclusively to the Extension and to information processed as part of providing, operating, supporting, maintaining, and improving the Extension.

This Policy does not govern third-party websites, services, or platforms that you may access or interact with while using the Extension (including Instagram and any affiliated or embedded services). Such third parties maintain independent privacy practices and terms. Your interactions with third-party services are subject to their respective policies.

2. Data Minimization; No Account Requirement

The Extension is designed in accordance with a data-minimization approach. Use of the Extension does not require account registration with us, creation of a user profile, or submission of personally identifiable information (“PII”).

Accordingly, we do not request, and do not intentionally collect or store, PII such as:

• full names; 

• email addresses; 

• telephone numbers; 

• payment information; 

• physical mailing addresses; 

• login credentials; or 

• account-related identifiers. 

3. Technical and Operational Information

To ensure continuity of service, reliability, compatibility, and to address technical issues, the Extension may process limited non-personal technical and operational information. Depending on the circumstances, this information may include:

• Internet Protocol (IP) address (as part of standard network communications); 

• browser type and version; 

• operating system details; 

• general diagnostic signals; 

• error reports and related records; and 

• stability and performance logs associated with Extension operation. 

Such information is processed solely for legitimate operational purposes and is not intended to directly identify a specific user.

4. Random Internal Identifier (UID)

Upon installation or first use, the Extension may generate a randomly created internal identifier (“UID”). The UID is used to distinguish anonymized technical sessions and to support routine operational functions.

The UID:

• is generated through a random process; 

• is not derived from personal information; 

• is not linked to hardware or device identifiers; and 

• is not intended to identify an individual user. 

The UID may additionally include (or be associated with) the Extension installation timestamp.

5. Timing and Circumstances of Processing

Information described in this Policy may be processed automatically during normal Extension operation, including, for example:

• upon initial activation or first launch; 

• when a user engages with core Extension features; and 

• during background processes that are reasonably necessary to provide functionality, maintain performance, or ensure compatibility. 

This processing generally occurs without requiring manual input of personal information.

6. Purposes of Processing

Any information processed in connection with the Extension is used exclusively for legitimate operational objectives, which may include:

• enabling and maintaining core Extension functionality; 

• monitoring performance and service reliability; 

• detecting, preventing, and addressing misuse or abuse of the Extension; 

• diagnosing, troubleshooting, and resolving technical issues; and 

• improving stability, compatibility, and user experience over time. 

We do not use information processed under this Policy for the sale of personal data.

7. Promotional Content and User Controls

In order to support development and to help keep the Extension available free of charge, the Extension may occasionally display promotional content.

Promotional content:

• may appear in the browser’s new tab in limited circumstances; 

• is intended to be infrequent and not to materially interfere with ordinary browsing activity; and 

• does not require the collection of personally identifiable information. 

Promotional content may be presented based on general Extension activity. Users may disable promotional content at any time via the Extension’s settings.

8. Cookies and Storage Technologies

Certain functional elements of the Extension may rely on cookies and/or browser-based storage technologies that are necessary for proper operation (for example, saving preferences or maintaining configuration).

Users may manage cookies through browser settings. Restricting cookies or similar storage technologies may affect the availability or performance of certain Extension features.

9. Security Safeguards

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures intended to protect information processed in connection with the Extension. Such measures may include access controls, standard security practices, and routine security checks. However, no method of transmission or storage is guaranteed to be completely secure.

10. Sharing; Service Providers; Legal Requirements

We do not sell, rent, or trade personal information.

In limited circumstances, non-personal technical information may be processed by trusted third-party service providers who assist with infrastructure, diagnostics, or operational support. Where applicable, such providers are expected to maintain appropriate confidentiality and security obligations.

We may disclose information where required by applicable law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, or where disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect rights, safety, or property, including in connection with investigating misuse.

11. Children’s Privacy

The Extension is not intended for use by individuals under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
