Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 2025

Privacy First Approach

At GrabstaFB, your privacy is our top priority. We believe in transparent data practices and minimal data collection. This policy explains how we handle your information when you use our video downloading service.

Information We Collect

Video URLs

When you paste a Facebook video URL into our downloader, we temporarily process this URL to fetch the video content. We do NOT store or log these URLs - they are processed in real-time and immediately discarded.

Usage Analytics

We collect anonymous usage statistics to improve our service, including:

  • Number of downloads processed (without URLs)
  • General geographic region (country level only)
  • Device type (mobile, desktop, tablet)
  • Browser type for compatibility optimization

Technical Information

Our servers automatically collect standard web server logs including IP addresses, timestamps, and HTTP headers. This data is used solely for security and service optimization purposes.

What We DON'T Collect

  • ✓No Personal Information: We don't require registration, so we don't collect names, emails, or personal data
  • ✓No Video Content: Downloaded videos are served directly to you - we don't store them on our servers
  • ✓No URL History: We don't maintain logs of the Facebook URLs you've submitted
  • ✓No Social Media Tracking: We don't integrate with Facebook's tracking systems or APIs
  • ✓No Cross-Site Tracking: We don't use tracking pixels or third-party analytics beyond basic usage statistics

How We Use Information

The limited information we collect is used exclusively for:

  • Processing video download requests
  • Maintaining service security and preventing abuse
  • Optimizing performance and compatibility
  • Understanding general usage patterns to improve the service

Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect any data we process:

Encryption

All data transmission is encrypted using HTTPS/SSL protocols

Temporary Processing

Video URLs are processed in memory and never written to permanent storage

Regular Monitoring

Our systems are regularly monitored for security vulnerabilities

Access Control

Strict access controls limit who can access server infrastructure

Third-Party Services

We use minimal third-party services to operate our platform:

  • Cloud Infrastructure: Our servers are hosted on secure cloud platforms with their own privacy protections
  • CDN Services: Content delivery networks help serve our website faster globally
  • Basic Analytics: Anonymous usage statistics to understand service performance

We do not integrate with social media tracking, advertising networks, or data brokers.

Cookies and Local Storage

Our website uses minimal cookies and local storage:

  • Essential Cookies: Required for basic website functionality (session management, security)
  • No Tracking Cookies: We don't use cookies for advertising or cross-site tracking
  • No Persistent Data: We don't store your download history or personal preferences locally

International Users

Our service is available globally. If you're accessing from outside the United States:

  • Your data may be processed on servers in different countries
  • We comply with applicable international privacy laws
  • The same privacy protections apply regardless of your location

Your Privacy Rights

Since we collect minimal data, most privacy rights are automatically protected:

  • Right to Know: This policy explains exactly what data we collect
  • Right to Delete: Since we don't store URLs or personal data, there's nothing to delete
  • Right to Opt-Out: You can use our service without providing any personal information
  • Right to Access: Contact us if you have questions about any data we might have

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. We will notify users of any material changes by:

  • Updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this policy
  • Displaying a notice on our website for significant changes
  • Continuing to operate under our privacy-first principles
