Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026

Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how CapMyVideo ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you use our website and transcript generation service.

We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our data practices. This service is operated from the United Kingdom.

Information We Process

YouTube URLs

When you use our transcript generator, you submit a YouTube video URL. We process this URL solely to fetch the transcript from YouTube. We do not permanently store the URLs you submit.

Transcript Data

Transcripts are retrieved in real-time from YouTube and sent directly to your browser. We do not store, save, or retain the transcript content on our servers.

Server Logs

Like most websites, our servers automatically collect certain technical information when you visit, including:

  • IP address (which may be used for rate limiting and security purposes)
  • Browser type and version
  • Pages visited and time of visit
  • Referring website

Server logs are used for security, troubleshooting, and service improvement. They are retained for a limited period and are not used to identify individual users.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We may use cookies and similar technologies on our website. Please see our Cookie Policy for detailed information about the cookies we use.

Third-Party Services

Google Analytics

With your consent, we use Google Analytics 4 to understand visits and general use of our pages. The tag loads only after you accept analytics cookies. We do not send submitted YouTube URLs, transcript contents or form entries to Analytics.

Google Analytics uses cookies and processes data under Google's Privacy Policy. Page addresses sent by our tag exclude query strings and fragments.

You can change your choice at any time using Cookie settings in the footer. Rejecting analytics stops future events from this site and removes its first-party Analytics cookies.

Google AdSense

We use Google AdSense to display advertising. Google may process device, browser, approximate location and interaction information to deliver, measure and protect ads. In the UK and EEA, ad storage, ad user data and ad personalisation remain denied unless the required consent is collected through Google's consent-management platform. Google processes this data in accordance with Google's Privacy Policy.

You can manage personalised advertising through Google's Ads Settings.

YouTube

Our service interacts with YouTube to retrieve video transcripts. When you submit a YouTube URL, we make requests to YouTube's systems. YouTube is operated by Google, and their use of data is governed by Google's privacy policy.

How We Use Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Provide the transcript generation service
  • Maintain and improve our website
  • Monitor for abuse and ensure security
  • Analyse usage patterns to improve user experience
  • Display relevant advertisements

Data Security

We implement appropriate technical measures to protect against unauthorised access, alteration, or destruction of data. Our website uses HTTPS encryption to protect data in transit.

Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your personal data, including:

  • The right to access information we hold about you
  • The right to request correction of inaccurate data
  • The right to request deletion of your data
  • The right to object to processing
  • The right to data portability

Since we do not store YouTube URLs or transcript data, and server logs contain minimal personal information, there may be limited data available upon request.

To exercise your rights, please contact us.

Children's Privacy

Our service is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

Changes to This Policy

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 "Last updated" date.
