1. About this policy
This policy explains how Insta & YouTube Downloader handles information when you use the Android app to preview and download supported public Instagram and YouTube videos or audio. The app may also display the name “Insta and Youtube Download.” It is an independent app and is not affiliated with Instagram, Meta, YouTube or Google.
2. Information used by the app
Video links and previews: The app processes links you enter, paste or share to it. It requests the corresponding video information, thumbnail and media from the source platform and its content-delivery services. The app uses this information to display previews and download the media you select. These requests do not pass through a server operated by the developer.
Clipboard: When you tap Paste Link, the app reads the current clipboard item. When Clipboard Link Detection is enabled, the app may also read clipboard text while its home screen is active to check for a supported video link and offer an Ignore or Paste Link choice. The app does not monitor your clipboard in the background or send unrelated clipboard text to the developer. You can turn off automatic detection in Settings.
Local downloads and history: Downloaded media is saved on your phone. The app stores a local history containing information such as the title, file name, file location, size, download time, platform, quality, duration and thumbnail address. This information is used to display your downloads and enable opening, sharing and deletion. The history contains up to 200 records; removing an older record to make space does not delete its media file.
Settings and temporary information: Preferences such as quality, download folder, theme and clipboard detection are stored locally. The app processes temporary preview information, download progress and error details to operate downloads and help you understand failures.
The current app does not require an account or ask for your name, email address, social-media password, account cookies or payment details. It does not request access to your contacts, precise device location, microphone or camera. It does not include advertising, analytics or remote crash-reporting SDKs.
3. Network connections and third parties
When you preview or download a link, the source platform and its media or thumbnail providers receive the requests needed to supply the content. These providers can receive your IP address, the requested resource or video identifier, request headers and other technical connection information. Thumbnail requests can also occur when displaying previews or download records if a remote thumbnail is used.
If you choose Update Download Engine, the app connects to GitHub and its download infrastructure to check for and retrieve engine updates. These services receive normal network-request information, including your IP address.
These providers may process requests in other countries and retain information under their own policies. You can review their policies here:

GitHub: https://docs.github.com/en/site-policy/privacy-policies/github-general-privacy-statement
The app does not upload your downloaded files, local history or settings to a developer-operated server, and the developer does not sell this information.
4. Permissions and sharing
Internet access is used to retrieve video information, thumbnails, media and engine updates. Notification permission is used to show download status. Android foreground services allow a download or engine update you start to continue while the app is not visible.
The app uses Android's media storage system to save and manage its downloaded files. It does not request broad access to all files on your device. When you choose Open or Share, the app grants the selected receiving app access to that file. Information you share is then handled by the receiving app or service under its own policies. Other apps with appropriate Android permissions, or backup tools you enable, may also access files saved in shared media folders.
5. Storage, retention and deletion
Settings and download history remain in the app's local storage until you delete them by clearing the app's storage in Android settings or uninstalling the app, subject to Android's storage behavior. Deleting a download through the app also removes its history record. Files deleted outside the app may leave a history entry until you remove it from the list.
Downloaded media remains in shared media folders until you delete it through the app, Gallery, Files or another file-management tool. Clearing app storage or uninstalling the app may leave these downloaded files on your phone. Delete those files separately if you want to remove them.
The app attempts to remove temporary working download files when a download finishes, fails or is cancelled. Unexpected interruptions may leave temporary files; Android's Clear cache or Clear storage controls can remove app cache. Clearing storage also resets app settings and history.
The app does not create user accounts, so there is no app account to delete. The developer cannot remotely access or delete files stored only on your device. Retention of request information by third-party platforms is governed by their policies.
6. Security
Supported video links and remote preview images use HTTPS, and engine updates are retrieved over HTTPS from their providers. Private settings and history are kept in Android app storage. Downloads saved to shared media folders follow Android's access controls. No method of storage or transmission can be guaranteed completely secure.
7. Contacting the developer and your choices
You can disable automatic clipboard detection, change notification permissions, stop using network features, delete downloaded files, clear local app data or uninstall the app.
If you contact the developer, your email address, message and any attachments you choose to provide will be used to respond to your inquiry. Please do not send passwords, private account credentials or unnecessary sensitive information. Support messages will be retained only as needed to handle the inquiry and meet applicable obligations. You may request deletion of support correspondence, subject to any required retention. Depending on applicable law, you may also have rights to request access, correction or other action concerning information held by the developer.

This policy describes the current app. Ads, subscriptions and paid upgrades are not currently included. If future versions introduce these features or change how information is handled, this policy and the relevant Google Play disclosures will be updated to describe the actual providers, data practices and user choices. Any required permissions or consent will be requested before the relevant processing begins.
