tapeshelf Video Downloader works in your browser. Finding and downloading videos happens there: the files go from the sites straight to your computer, and nothing about the pages you open or the videos you download is sent to us. Its settings and the history of your downloads stay in your browser; you can turn the history off and clear it.

It sends data to tapeshelf only when you ask it to:
- When you connect it to your tapeshelf account, it receives a key that can only upload videos to that account. Settings → Security on tapeshelf.com lists it, and disconnecting it there revokes the key.
- When you press "Save to My shelf", it uploads that video, with the title and description you see in its form, to your account. Our server notes that the connection and the upload came from the extension; that is how we count how many people use it.

The version from Firefox Add-ons is updated by Firefox Add-ons and does not contact our site for updates. The extension has no analytics, no ads and no trackers, and its code is open (AGPL-3.0).
