Privacy Policy — Video Downloader for Vimeo

This Privacy Policy explains how Video Downloader for Vimeo (the “Extension”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) handles information in connection with its installation and use.

The Extension is a browser-based tool that allows users to detect and download supported Vimeo videos, including Vimeo content embedded on third-party websites. The Extension is designed to perform its primary functions within the user’s browser environment.

By installing or using the Extension, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.

1. Scope of This Policy

This Privacy Policy applies solely to the Extension and the information processing directly related to its functionality, maintenance, and operation.

It does not govern Vimeo, websites containing embedded Vimeo players, or any other third-party websites, platforms, or services. Such services operate independently and are subject to their own terms and privacy policies.

2. No Registration Requirement

The Extension does not require users to create an account, register with us, or provide personal information before using its features.

We do not request or intentionally collect personal identifiers such as:

• names;

• email addresses;

• telephone numbers;

• physical addresses;

• payment or billing information;

• usernames;

• passwords;

• Vimeo account credentials; or

• identifiers assigned to accounts on third-party platforms.

3. Information Processed for Download Functionality

To identify available video files and complete a download initiated by the user, the Extension may process limited information available within the active browser session.

This may include:

• information contained in the Vimeo page or embedded player;

• media URLs and available video formats;

• video quality and file-related metadata;

• page elements required to detect supported media;

• request headers and other technical values required to access the selected video;

• network response information associated with Vimeo media; and

• the address or technical context of the page on which the supported video is detected.

This processing is performed only as necessary to identify downloadable media, present available download options, and complete actions requested by the user.

The Extension does not use this information to create user profiles, track browsing behavior, or determine the identity of an individual.

4. Cookies and Active Session Information

Some Vimeo videos may only be accessible within an active browser session. Where necessary, the Extension may rely on cookies or other session information already available in the user’s browser to access a video or perform a download requested by the user.

Such information:

• is used only within the local browser environment;

• is accessed only where technically necessary for the requested function;

• is not separately stored by the Extension;

• is not transmitted to servers operated by us; and

• is not used to obtain or store passwords, usernames, or account credentials.

The Extension does not create a separate copy of the user’s Vimeo cookies.

5. Local Extension Storage

The Extension may use standard browser extension storage to retain limited non-personal information needed for ordinary operation.

Depending on the available features, locally stored information may include:

• Extension settings and preferences;

• selected interface options;

• temporary operational states;

• cached technical configuration;

• records required to complete multi-step download actions; and

• non-personal usage counters or similar values used to manage Extension interface behavior.

This information remains within the browser environment and is not transmitted to us.

Users may remove locally stored information by clearing the Extension’s data through browser settings or by uninstalling the Extension.

6. Technical and Environmental Information

During normal use, the Extension may locally process general technical information required to operate correctly across different browser environments.

Such information may include:

• browser type and version;

• operating system details;

• language and locale settings;

• compatibility information;

• basic diagnostic signals;

• technical error information; and

• performance or stability indicators related to Extension operation.

This information is non-personal in nature and is processed only to support compatibility, reliability, troubleshooting, and proper execution of Extension features.

7. Server Communication and Analytics

The Extension does not transmit user information to servers operated by us as part of its normal functionality.

We do not use external analytics platforms, tracking services, crash-reporting SDKs, or similar third-party analytics tools within the Extension.

Network requests made while using the Extension are limited to communications necessary to interact with Vimeo or with the third-party website on which a Vimeo video is embedded. Such requests are made in order to detect media, access available video resources, or complete a download initiated by the user.

Vimeo and other third-party websites may independently receive information normally associated with internet requests, such as an IP address or browser-related data. Their handling of such information is governed by their own privacy policies and is outside our control.

8. Purposes of Information Processing

Information described in this Policy may be processed for the following purposes:

• detecting supported Vimeo videos;

• identifying available video formats and quality options;

• enabling user-requested downloads;

• supporting Vimeo videos embedded on third-party websites;

• preserving Extension settings and interface preferences;

• maintaining compatibility with supported pages and browser versions;

• diagnosing local technical issues;

• improving stability and reliability; and

• preventing improper operation or technical misuse of Extension functionality.

Information is not processed for behavioral advertising, user profiling, or cross-site tracking.

9. Information Sharing

We do not sell, rent, trade, or disclose personal information collected through the Extension.

Because the Extension’s normal processing takes place locally and no information is transmitted to infrastructure operated by us, we do not share locally processed Extension data with analytics providers, advertising networks, or other external recipients.

Information may still be processed by Vimeo or another website when the browser communicates directly with that service. Such processing is controlled by the relevant third party rather than by the Extension publisher.

10. Data Retention and User Control

Information stored in browser extension storage remains available for as long as the Extension is installed or until it is cleared through the browser.

Temporary information used to identify media or complete a download may be held only for the duration reasonably necessary to perform the requested action.

Users may remove locally retained Extension data by:

• clearing Extension storage through browser settings;

• resetting available Extension settings; or

• uninstalling the Extension.

11. Security

We apply reasonable technical measures intended to limit information processing to what is necessary for Extension functionality.

Because browser extensions operate within a broader browser and website environment, no software or storage method can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Users should keep their browser and the Extension updated and should use appropriate security practices when accessing third-party websites.

12. Third-Party Platforms

The Extension is an independent product and is not affiliated with, sponsored by, endorsed by, or officially connected with Vimeo.

The availability of a video through the Extension does not grant the user any rights to download, copy, distribute, or reuse that content. Users are responsible for ensuring that their use of downloaded material complies with applicable laws, copyright requirements, and the terms of the relevant website or content owner.

13. Children’s Privacy

The Extension is not directed to children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly request or collect personal information from children.

14. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may revise this Privacy Policy when necessary to reflect changes in Extension functionality, browser requirements, legal obligations, or information-handling practices.

The current version may be made available through the Extension listing or related documentation. Continued use of the Extension after an updated Policy becomes available constitutes acknowledgment of the revised Policy.
