Your privacy matters to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our content downloader service.
Welcome to fastvidl.com ("we," "our," or "us"). Your privacy matters to us. This Privacy Policy explains in clear, straightforward language how we handle information when you use our content downloader service for Instagram, Facebook, and Pinterest at fastvidl.com (the "Website" or "Service").
We believe in transparency. This policy tells you exactly what information we collect, why we collect it, and what choices you have. We've written this in plain English because privacy policies shouldn't require a law degree to understand.
Content URLs: When you paste a URL from Instagram (reels, videos, photos, stories, IGTV), Facebook (reels, videos), or Pinterest (images, videos) to download content, we temporarily process this URL to provide our service. Important: We do NOT permanently store these URLs or the downloaded content.
Contact Information: If you reach out through our contact form, we collect only your name and email address to respond to your inquiry.
When you visit our Website, certain technical information is automatically collected:
We want to be crystal clear about what we don't do:
We use collected information only for legitimate purposes:
We use cookies to make our Website work properly and provide you with a better experience.
These cookies are necessary for the Website to function and cannot be disabled:
We load Google tag (gtag.js) on the site for measurement and advertising-related signals tied to our Google Ads account. Depending on your browser settings and Google's policies, this may involve cookies or similar storage to attribute visits and conversions. Google's documentation describes how those technologies work: Google Privacy Policy, How Google uses information from sites that use their services.
Your choices: You can manage ad personalization and related Google settings at Google Ads Settings, and use industry tools such as aboutads.info/choices (US) or youronlinechoices.com (EU).
We may use Google AdSense and related Google services to deliver and optimize advertising on fastvidl.com. Google and its partners may set cookies or use similar technologies. Google's privacy policy is here: https://policies.google.com/privacy. Optional measurement scripts load only after you accept cookies in our site banner.
We may load ShareThis scripts for optional sharing features. ShareThis sets its own cookies and processes data under its policies, see ShareThis documentation for details.
FastVidl is supported by advertising. We may use Google AdSense and Google's advertising network to serve and optimize ads. Optional scripts such as the Google tag and ShareThis load only after you accept optional cookies in our consent banner. See our Cookie Policy for consent and opt-out options.
Depending on partners and your settings, ads may be influenced by factors such as:
Use the cookie banner on the site, adjust browser cookie settings, and review partner opt-outs (Google, ShareThis, and industry programs linked above). Blocking all cookies can break parts of the downloader experience.
FastVidl offers optional page translation via Google Website Translator (Google LLC). When you choose a language from the header menu, Google loads scripts from translate.google.com to translate visible text in your browser. Google may use cookies (such as googtrans) to remember your language choice. Translation happens on your device through Google's service; we do not send your content to our servers for translation.
See Google's Privacy Policy for how Google handles data. You can clear translation cookies in your browser or select the original language in the menu to stop using the feature.
We believe in keeping data only as long as necessary:
| Data Type | Retention Period | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Content URLs (Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest) | Real-time processing only, immediately discarded | Not stored after download |
| Measurement data (Google tags) | As set by Google / your browser | Ads measurement and site analytics |
| Contact Form Inquiries | 1 year or until resolved | Customer support |
| Session Cookies | Until browser is closed | Basic functionality |
| Persistent Cookies | As specified by provider | Analytics and advertising |
We aim to follow major privacy principles (such as GDPR and CCPA) where applicable, and will update this policy as laws evolve. We share limited technical information with advertising and analytics partners (such as Google) for advertising delivery, site optimization, and traffic measurement where you have consented.
We share limited information only with:
All service providers are contractually required to protect your information and use it only for specified purposes.
We may disclose information when required by:

We use Cloudflare for content delivery, security, and DNS management. Cloudflare may collect certain technical information (like IP addresses) to protect our website from cyber threats and ensure fast performance.
We take security seriously and implement multiple layers of protection:
Important Disclaimer: No internet transmission method is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your information using industry-standard measures, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Some web browsers have a "Do Not Track" feature that signals websites you don't want to be tracked.
Current Status: Our Website does not currently respond to DNT signals or similar mechanisms because there is no industry-wide standard for interpreting DNT signals.
Your Alternative Options: Use the opt-out tools mentioned in the advertising section above to control tracking.
External Links: Our Website may contain links to Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, and other third-party websites.
Not Our Responsibility: We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of external sites.
