Privacy Policy

Effective date: January 1, 2026 · Last updated: May 12, 2026

The short version: We do not require you to create an account. We do not sell your data. The URLs you submit are processed to fulfil your download request and are not linked to any personal identity.

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how r34v.cc ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses, and handles information when you use our Service. We are committed to handling any information responsibly and with respect for your privacy.

2. Information We Collect

We collect minimal information necessary to operate the Service:

URLs submitted: When you submit a video URL, we process it to retrieve and return the download link. We may log submitted URLs for a limited period for abuse prevention and diagnostic purposes.
Technical log data: Our servers automatically record standard log data including IP addresses, browser type, operating system, referring page, date and time of access, and pages visited. This is standard practice for any web service and is used for security, performance monitoring, and abuse prevention.
Cookies and local storage: We may use minimal functional cookies or browser storage (e.g. to remember your preferences). We do not use tracking cookies or third-party advertising cookies.

We do not collect names, email addresses, payment information, or any other personal data unless you contact us directly.

3. How We Use Information

The information we collect is used solely to:

Provide and operate the Service (processing download requests).
Monitor and maintain the security, stability, and performance of the Service.
Detect, investigate, and prevent abuse, fraud, or illegal activity.
Respond to DMCA takedown requests or other legal obligations.
Improve the Service based on aggregated, anonymised usage patterns.

4. Data Retention

Server log data, including IP addresses and submitted URLs, is retained for a limited period (typically up to 90 days) after which it is deleted or anonymised. We do not build persistent profiles of individual users.

5. Data Sharing & Disclosure

We do not sell, rent, or trade any information to third parties. We may disclose information only in the following limited circumstances:

Legal compliance: If required by law, court order, or valid legal process (such as a subpoena), we may disclose information to the appropriate authorities.
Rights enforcement: To respond to legitimate DMCA takedown requests or to protect the rights, property, or safety of r34v.cc, its users, or others.
Service providers: We may share technical data with hosting and infrastructure providers who process data on our behalf under appropriate data processing agreements. These providers are not permitted to use data for their own purposes.

6. Third-Party Services

When you submit a URL, our Service communicates with third-party platforms (such as rule34video.com) to retrieve video data. Your interaction with those platforms is governed by their own privacy policies, over which we have no control.

We do not embed third-party advertising networks, social media tracking pixels, or analytics services that profile individual users.

7. Security

We take reasonable technical measures to protect the information we hold from unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Children's Privacy

This Service is intended for adults only and is not directed at individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors. If you believe a minor has used the Service, please contact us and we will take appropriate action.

9. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights regarding your personal data, such as the right to access, correct, or request deletion of information we hold about you. Since we do not collect identifiable personal data in normal Service use, such requests may be difficult to fulfil without additional identifying information. Please contact us at help@r34v.cc with any privacy-related requests and we will respond as required by applicable law.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The effective date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
