Privacy Policy
This policy explains what happens to data on this site. The short version: your images and text stay in your browser, there are no accounts, and the only cookie we set records your consent choice.
The short version
- Images you open in the tools are processed in your browser and are never uploaded.
- There are no accounts, no logins and no user database.
- Text you type into the generators is not stored or transmitted.
- One first-party cookie records whether you accepted cookies, so the banner does not reappear.
- Aggregate analytics and advertising are optional and only load after you accept.
Who is responsible
YouTube Creator Tools ("we", "us") operates https://youtubetoolscreator.com. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Google LLC.
Contact details are on the contact page. If you are in the EEA or UK, the consent banner lets you accept or refuse optional cookies before anything optional loads.
What we process in your browser
The image tools use the browser canvas API. When you drop a file onto a tool, the file is read by JavaScript in the page and drawn onto a canvas. The processed result stays in the tab until you download it or close the page.
No copy is transmitted, cached by us, or written to a server log. The same is true of the text you type into the title, description and hashtag generators: the text exists in the page, and it is copied to your clipboard only when you ask for it.
Local storage
We use localStorage to remember your theme choice (light or dark) and the last tool you used. This stays on your device, is readable only by this site, and is cleared when you clear site data. We do not use it for identification or profiling.
Cookies and consent
The site sets one first-party cookie, yct_consent, to remember that you have seen the cookie banner. It contains no identifier, is not shared, and is not used for advertising. It is set regardless of your choice so the banner stays dismissed.
Optional cookies come from third parties and only load after you accept:
- Advertising. If AdSense is enabled, Google may set cookies to serve and measure ads. See the cookie policy for the list.
- Analytics. No analytics or audience measurement runs on this site. Page views are not counted and no analytics cookie is set.
You can change your choice at any time using the "Cookie settings" link in the footer, or by clearing site data in your browser. If your browser sends the Global Privacy Control signal, analytics is not loaded even if you accepted it here.
Advertising
This site is funded by clearly labelled display advertising. Advertising partners, including Google, may use cookies or device identifiers to serve and measure ads, and may personalise them based on your prior activity.
Google AdSense policies restrict how ads are served alongside content about copyright, gambling and similar topics. Any ad that appears next to our reference material is not an endorsement of that ad, and we do not accept payment for altering technical facts or specifications.
What we do not collect
- No names, emails or accounts, because there is no sign-up.
- No uploaded images, videos or audio.
- No keystroke logging and no session replay.
- No scraping of the tools to build a training set.
- No analytics data in our own systems. Page views go straight from your browser to the analytics provider listed above; we never see or store an individual record.
Third parties
Pages may link to other sites, including YouTube. We do not control them and are not responsible for their content or privacy practices. Check their own policies before uploading anything.
Your rights
Because we do not hold personal accounts or file data, there is normally nothing to export or delete. For advertising-related data held by a partner, use that partner's own privacy controls, or contact us and we will point you to the right place.
Where analytics are enabled, page-view data is held by Google under your Google account settings and Google's own retention rules (14 months by default), not by us. Google's data and privacy controls let you delete or export it.
Depending on where you live, you may have rights of access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection and portability. We honour those requests for any data we do hold.
Security and retention
The site is served over HTTPS. Because personal data is not retained by us, retention periods do not apply beyond the consent cookie, which lasts 180 days. Third-party retention is set by the provider, not by this site.

This page is versioned by date. If a change materially affects what is collected, the updated date at the top changes with it.
