Privacy Policy
Last updated: December 17, 2025
This Privacy Policy explains how GIF Downloader handles information when you use our free GIF downloader tool. We keep downloads fast, private, and minimal—no accounts required, no GIFs stored.
1. Introduction
Welcome to GIF Downloader ("we," "our," or "us"). This policy covers how we collect, use, and protect information when you download GIFs using our site.
2. Information We Collect
We collect minimal information needed to run the GIF downloader:
- URLs you submit for GIF extraction (processed in memory, not stored long-term)
- Basic technical data (browser/device/IP) for security and abuse prevention
- Cookies/analytics for performance and uptime insights
3. How We Use Your Information
We use information to:
- Process GIF extraction/download requests
- Improve speed, reliability, and UX of the GIF downloader
- Protect against fraud, abuse, and security threats
- Measure performance/traffic (aggregated analytics)
4. Advertising
We may use third-party ad partners (e.g., Google AdSense). They can use cookies or similar tech to show relevant ads. You can control cookies in your browser settings.
5. Cookies
We use cookies for preferences, analytics, and ads. You can block or clear cookies in your browser; the GIF downloader will still work, though some preferences may reset.
6. Data Security
We apply reasonable technical measures (encryption in transit, limited retention). No internet service is 100% secure, but we minimize what we collect and avoid storing GIF payloads.
7. Third-Party Links
We may link to third-party sites. Their privacy practices are their own; review their policies before sharing data.
8. Children's Privacy
GIF Downloader is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their data.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy. When we do, we’ll revise the “Last updated” date above.
