YT Video Downloader (ytvideodownloader.org) is an online converter that works on the YouTube links people paste into it. We take copyright seriously and we expect you to as well. Using this site means you accept the points laid out on this page.
This tool is for personal, educational, and non-commercial use with content you're legally allowed to save. In practice, that means at least one of these has to be true:
Saving copyrighted material without that kind of right is not allowed here, and it may be against the law where you live.
We're a neutral piece of technology, nothing more. We don't host, store, or archive anyone's video beyond the few moments it takes to build your file, and we have no say over whether the content you pick is legal to use. The responsibility for that choice, and any consequences of it, sits entirely with you.
Every time you use the site, you're telling us you hold whatever rights are needed for the file you're asking for. Pulling content from sources you aren't allowed to use can break copyright law and the rules of platforms like YouTube. We don't pre-check what people submit, so the legal risk of your own use is yours to carry.
We can, at our discretion and without warning, block specific links or videos, turn away repeat offenders, and cut off access for anyone who ignores this page or breaks copyright law. Any video that's the subject of a valid copyright claim gets blocked across the whole site.
If you own a copyright and believe your work has been reached through this service without permission, you can send us a formal takedown notice. Our copyright claims page lists what to include, or you can use the Report DMCA form to get a specific video blocked. We act quickly on valid notices and block reported videos site-wide.
If you're a rights holder, you can have a specific video pulled from downloads on our site. Report it here.
