# Privacy Policy

getyoutubetext.com

Last updated: March 2026

Thank you for using Get YouTube Text. This privacy policy explains what data we collect, why we collect it, and how we use it. We keep this simple because the tool itself is simple.

## 1. What We Collect

We do not require you to create an account or submit any personal information to use this tool. However, like most websites, we collect certain usage data automatically:

**Usage data:** We use Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity to understand how people interact with the site. This includes your IP address, browser type, operating system, pages visited, time spent on the site, and general geographic region. None of this identifies you personally.

**Cookies:** We use cookies to support analytics and improve site performance. You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings at any time.

**YouTube URLs:** When you paste a YouTube link to generate a transcript, we process that URL solely to fetch and return the transcript to you. We do not store, log, or associate these URLs with any user identity.

## 2. How We Use Your Data

We use the data we collect for three reasons only:

- To understand how people use the site so we can improve it.  
- To keep the site running reliably and securely.  
- To diagnose and fix technical issues when they come up.

We do not sell your data. We do not use it for email marketing. We do not build profiles on our users.

## 3. Third Party Services

**Google Analytics:** We use Google Analytics to track site traffic and usage patterns. Google may use this data in accordance with their own privacy policy, which you can read at [policies.google.com/privacy](https://policies.google.com/privacy).

**Microsoft Clarity:** We use Microsoft Clarity to understand user behavior through session recordings and heatmaps. This helps us identify usability issues and improve the experience. You can read Microsoft's privacy policy at [privacy.microsoft.com](https://privacy.microsoft.com/).

## 4. Your Choices

You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time. Note that this may affect how some parts of the site behave.

You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on available at [tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout](https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout).

You can opt out of Microsoft Clarity by visiting Microsoft's privacy dashboard.

## 5. Data Retention

We do not store personal data beyond what analytics tools retain on our behalf. Analytics data is retained per the default policies of Google and Microsoft respectively. Transcript requests are not logged or stored.

## 6. Data Security

We take reasonable steps to protect the site and its infrastructure. That said, no system connected to the internet is completely immune to risk. We do not store sensitive user data, which limits exposure significantly.

## 7. Children's Privacy

This tool is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children. If you believe a child has submitted information through this site, please contact us and we will address it promptly.

## 8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy occasionally. When we do, the date at the top of this page will reflect the change. We recommend checking back periodically if this is a concern for you.
