Android App Privacy Policy

The short version

The KlipJar app has no account and no sign-in, and it contains no advertising, analytics or crash-reporting libraries. It never asks for your social-media password. When you share or paste a link, the app sends only that public post’s link to klipjar.com so our server can find the video file — the same thing that happens when you use the KlipJar website.

What stays on your phone

• Your downloads. Files you save go into your phone’s own Movies/KlipJar or Music/KlipJar folder. We never receive a copy.
• App settings. Whether you have seen the introduction, your quality preference, and a list of post IDs you have already downloaded (used only to warn you about duplicates). These are stored privately in the app on your phone.
• Temporary files used while joining video and audio are kept in the app’s private storage and can be cleared at any time in Settings → Clear temporary files.

If you use Android’s own device backup, the app’s settings may be included in that backup; temporary download files are excluded. Uninstalling the app removes everything it stored, except the media files you chose to save.

What is sent to klipjar.com, and why

• The post link you share or paste is sent over HTTPS to klipjar.com/api/extract. Our server asks the platform which files that public post publishes and returns their addresses, title and thumbnail. The link is used to answer that request and is not stored.
• Downloads come straight from the platform’s own servers for most platforms. For TikTok and Pinterest, which do not allow direct downloads, our server fetches the file at your request and streams it through to the app without saving it.
• To reach the platforms reliably, our server uses a residential proxy provider (DataImpulse), which sees the address of the public post being looked up but not your IP address.

Like any website, klipjar.com and our network provider Cloudflare process your IP address to deliver responses and block abuse. Our server logs record the time, IP address, path (never the query string or the post link) and status, are size-capped and overwritten automatically, and are never sold or used for profiling. Full details are in the website privacy policy.

Permissions, and why

• Internet and network state — to look up links and download files, and to tell you when you are offline.
• Notifications — to show download progress and completion. You can turn these off in Android settings.
• Foreground service (data sync) — so a download can finish if you switch to another app.
• Storage (Android 9 and older only) — older Android versions need it to save into your Movies or Music folder. Newer versions do not.

The app does not request your location, contacts, camera, microphone or any account access.

What we do not do

• No advertising, analytics, tracking or crash-reporting SDKs.
• No selling or sharing of data with data brokers or advertisers.
• No access to private or login-only posts — the app only reads what a logged-out visitor can already see.

Children

KlipJar is a general-audience utility and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect information from children.

Your rights and contact

Because there is no account, we hold nothing that identifies you beyond short-lived server log lines. You can still ask about, or ask us to delete, any data relating to you. KlipJar is operated by BeyondITL Inc. Contact: [email protected]. Terms of use: klipjar.com/terms.

Changes

If the app’s data handling changes, this page is updated before the new version is released, and the date above changes.
