Information We Collect
Information You Provide
When you use our service, you submit TikTok video URLs to generate a download link. We do not require you to create an account, provide your name, email address, phone number, or any other personal information to use our basic service.

Data Storage and Security
ttdown.site does not store downloaded videos on our servers. All video processing happens in real-time — the video is fetched, processed, and delivered directly to your device. No copy is retained on our infrastructure after the download is complete.
Submitted TikTok URLs are used only for processing your request and are not permanently logged, stored in a database, or shared with any third party (other than TikTok's own servers to fetch the video).
We implement reasonable technical and organizational security measures to protect against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction of information. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Hosting & Infrastructure
Our website is hosted on secure servers with industry-standard security measures to ensure reliability, speed, and protection of visitor data. We use reputable hosting infrastructure to maintain uptime and safeguard all data processed through our service.
Data Retention
We retain data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy:
- Submitted URLs: Not retained. Processed in real-time and discarded immediately after the download link is generated.
- Analytics Data: Retained in anonymized, aggregated form for up to 26 months via Google Analytics (Google's default retention period).
- Server Logs: Basic server access logs may be retained for up to 30 days for security and abuse-prevention purposes, after which they are automatically deleted.
- No User Accounts: Since we do not require registration, we hold no personal user account data.
