Privacy & Cookie Policy

1. Overview and Commitment to Privacy

At Klip (https://klip-url.duckdns.org), we recognize the critical importance of privacy in digital utilities. This comprehensive Privacy Policy describes our practices regarding the collection, usage, and safeguarding of personal and technical data when you visit our website or use our media extraction tools.

2. Zero-Log Ephemeral Media Processing

Our core architecture is engineered on a strict Zero-Retention Policy:

• No Media Archiving: We do NOT host, store, catalog, or create permanent copies of any video, audio, or image files processed through our servers.
• Direct Ephemeral Streaming: Media files are streamed in transient server memory directly to your client browser. Once the download stream concludes, the memory buffer is completely flushed.
• Zero Content Indexing: We do not log or associate the URLs you submit with your personal identity or IP address.

3. Information We Collect

We collect only the minimal information necessary to deliver and protect our service:

• Account Information: If you register or authenticate via Google OAuth or Email credentials, we collect your email address and name to manage your Pro subscription and daily rate limits.
• System Diagnostics & Abuse Prevention: We collect temporary IP addresses and rate-limit counters to prevent automated Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks and malicious scraping.
• Support Inquiries: When you send a message through our Contact form, your name, email, and message content are securely stored to allow our support team to respond.

4. Cookies and Advertising (Google AdSense)

Klip uses industry-standard cookies to provide a personalized, secure browsing experience and to serve contextual advertisements:

• Essential & Session Cookies: Used for keeping you logged into your account and preserving UI preferences.
• Google AdSense & DoubleClick Cookies: Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on our site. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to users based on their visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet.
• Opting Out of Personalized Advertising: Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings or through aboutads.info.

5. Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to monitor aggregated website traffic and user interaction patterns. Google Analytics collects anonymous telemetry (such as browser type, operating system, and session duration) without personally identifying individual visitors.

6. GDPR & CCPA Privacy Rights

Under the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), you are entitled to:

• Request access to or export of your personal account data.
• Request deletion of your account and associated database records.
• Opt-out of any third-party data tracking mechanisms.
