These terms explain the ground rules for using YouTube Downloader Online, written in everyday words so you know exactly where you stand. They're short, fair, and worth a few minutes of your time before you save your first clip.
Agreeing to These Terms
By using this site, you agree to the terms on this page. If something here doesn't sit right with you, that's okay, but please don't use the service.
These terms apply every time you visit, whether you're saving a cooking video to watch offline or grabbing a song to share with a friend.
What the Service Does
YouTube Downloader Online is a free YouTube downloader that works right in your browser. You paste a YouTube link, tap the button, and the tool looks the video up live, showing its title, length and the available qualities.
You can pick an MP4 video file from 144p up to 1080p, or an MP3 audio file from 64 to 320 kbps. Tapping a quality opens the file in a new browser tab, straight from YouTube's video servers. We don't host or store any of these files ourselves.
Personal, Non-Commercial Use
This tool is meant for personal use. Think saving a family video for a long flight, keeping a lecture for a spot with no signal, or holding on to a clip you made yourself.
Using the service to build a business, run a paid product, or supply files to other people for money is not allowed.
Copyright and Your Responsibility
You're responsible for what you download. Only save videos and audio you actually have the right to keep. That includes:
- Videos you created and uploaded yourself
- Content in the public domain
- Content released under a licence that allows downloading, such as some Creative Commons licences
- Content you have clear permission from the owner to save
Respecting YouTube's Terms
YouTube has its own terms of service, and you're expected to respect them when you use any video from that platform. If you aren't sure whether you can save a particular video, the safest move is to ask the creator or skip it.
Things You Must Not Do
We want the site to stay quick and available for everyone, so a few things are off limits. You agree not to:
- Send automated or mass requests using bots, scripts or scrapers
- Try to overload, disrupt, hack or get around the site's security
- Use the service for anything illegal, including copyright infringement
- Resell, repackage or charge others for access to the service or its results
- Pretend to be us or suggest you're connected with the site when you're not
No Affiliation with YouTube or Google
We are an independent site. YouTube Downloader Online is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by YouTube or Google. YouTube is a trademark of Google LLC, and we mention it only to describe what the tool works with.
Third-Party Content
Every video and song you can find through this tool belongs to its creator or rights holder, not to us. We don't review, control or take responsibility for that content, its accuracy, or whether it's suitable for you.
Some videos may simply not work, including private, age-restricted, members-only, removed or region-blocked ones, as well as live streams that are still running. If you paste a playlist link, only the single video in that link is processed.
Our Own Content and Design
The text, layout, design and code of this site belong to us. You're welcome to link to our pages and tell your friends about the tool, but please don't copy the site or present its content as your own.
No Warranty
The service is provided "as is" and "as available." We work hard to keep it running smoothly, but we can't promise it will always be online, error-free, or able to fetch every video.
YouTube can change how its videos are delivered at any time, and a video that worked yesterday might not work today. We make no guarantee about the availability of any specific video or quality.
Limitation of Liability
To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for any loss or damage that comes from using, or not being able to use, this site. That includes lost data, problems with your device, or any legal trouble caused by downloading content you didn't have the right to save.
You use the tool at your own discretion, and you agree to take responsibility for how you use the files you download.
Changes and Availability of the Service
We may add features, remove options, adjust how things work, or pause the site for maintenance. Sometimes we may need to block access for anyone who misuses the service. We'll try to keep disruptions short, but we can't promise the site will stay the same forever.
Copyright Complaints
If you own the rights to content and believe this site is being used in a way that infringes them, please reach out through our Contact page. Include the link to the content, a short description of your work, and how we can get back to you.
We take these reports seriously and act quickly once we've reviewed the details.
Changes to These Terms
We may update these terms now and then, for example when the service changes or the law requires it. The latest version will always live on this page. If you keep using the site after an update, that means you accept the new terms.
Got a question about these terms or need to report something? Drop us a message through the Contact page and we'll be happy to help.
