Privacy Policy

Down4Media ("we", "us", or "our") operates the website down4media.online (the "Service"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and share information when you use our Service, and the choices you have associated with that data.

No Data Storage Guarantee: We do NOT store, save, or log any of your data. URLs submitted are processed in real-time and discarded immediately after download. No history, no database entries, no personal information collected.

By using Down4Media, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. Unless otherwise defined here, terms used in this Privacy Policy have the same meanings as in our Terms of Service.

Down4Media is designed with privacy-first principles. Here is exactly what happens:

• No Account Required — You do not need to sign up, register, or provide any personal information to use our service.
• No URL Storage — URLs you submit are processed in real-time and permanently discarded immediately after the download completes.
• No Download History — We do not keep any logs of what you download or when you download it.
• No Personal Data — We do not collect names, emails, phone numbers, or any identifying personal information.
• No Third-Party Sharing — Your submitted URLs are never shared, sold, or transferred to any third party.

For Personal and Educational Use Only: Down4Media is designed for saving publicly shared Pinterest content for personal offline reference, learning, and private inspiration. It is not intended for redistribution, commercial use, or publishing third-party content. Always respect the work of the original creator.

We do NOT collect personal data. However, certain data may be collected automatically by our hosting provider and advertising partners:

Usage Data

Our server may automatically collect basic, anonymized usage data such as total visitors and page views. This is standard hosting analytics and does not identify individual users.

Cookies and Tracking Data

We use minimal cookies for essential functionality only:

• Preference Cookies — to remember your dark mode settings.
• Advertising Cookies — served by Google AdSense for ads (subject to Google's privacy policy).

We do not use tracking cookies for analytics or user profiling.

Pinterest URLs

URLs you submit for downloading are processed in real time on our servers. They are not stored, logged to a database, or shared with any third party after processing is complete.

Because we collect minimal to no personal data, here is what we use what little data we collect for:

• To operate and maintain the service.
• To display advertisements via Google AdSense ( Google controls this data).
• To comply with applicable legal obligations.

Your Data is Safe With Us: We fundamentally do not collect, store, or track personal user data. What you submit stays between you and our server only during the few seconds needed to process your download.

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on our website. Google AdSense uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our site and other sites on the internet.

• Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your browsing history.
• Third-party vendors, including Google, may use the DoubleClick cookie or similar technologies for interest-based advertising.
• You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
• For more information on how Google uses data from sites that use its services, visit How Google uses data.
• To opt out of interest-based advertising from third-party networks, visit Network Advertising Initiative.

We may use Google Analytics to monitor and analyse traffic and usage of our service. Google Analytics collects data such as how often users visit the site, what pages they visit, and what other sites they visited before arriving.

You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on. For more information on Google's privacy practices, visit Google Privacy & Terms.

Our service may contain links to third-party websites. We have no control over the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites and assume no responsibility for them. We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy of every site you visit.

Third-party services we use that may collect data:

• Google AdSense — advertising
• Google Analytics — usage analytics

Your information, including any usage data, may be transferred to and maintained on servers located outside your country where data protection laws may differ. By using this service and submitting information, you consent to this transfer. We take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

Down4Media may disclose your data only when required in good faith to:

• Comply with a legal obligation.
• Protect and defend the rights or property of Down4Media.
• Prevent or investigate possible wrongdoing in connection with the service.
• Protect the personal safety of users of the service or the public.
• Protect against legal liability.

The security of your data is important to us. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.

Our service is not directed to individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from anyone under 18. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal data, please contact us immediately. If we become aware that we have collected such data, we will take steps to remove it from our servers.

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), you have certain data protection rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Since we do not collect personal data beyond what is described above, most of these rights are satisfied by default. For ad-related data rights, please refer to Google's privacy controls linked in the advertising section above.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the effective date. You are advised to review this policy periodically. Changes are effective when posted.
