Respecting copyright
YTDown asks users to download only content they own or have permission to save. The availability of a video online does not itself grant permission to copy or reuse it. Rights remain with their respective owners.

After you send a report
Reports are handled by email. We may request clarification or supporting information to identify the work, the relevant activity, or your authority to report it. Any action depends on the details of the report and the activity within our control.
If the original content is hosted on an external platform, you may also need to contact that platform. A report to YTDown does not remove content from YouTube or another provider.
Send only relevant information
Provide accurate information and avoid including unnecessary sensitive details. For privacy questions concerning your report, see our Privacy Policy.
