Privacy Policy

1. Who we are

YouTranslations (“we”, “us”) is a browser extension that helps creators bulk-translate video titles and descriptions in YouTube Studio. Our related account and entitlement service is operated at translations.ytstream247.com.

2. What the extension does

On YouTube Studio pages you open, the extension can read title and description text you choose to translate, send that text to a translation provider you select, and write the results back into Studio. An account on our service is required so we can verify that your plan allows the YouTube channel you are using.

3. Data we collect and process

3.1 Account data (our servers)

When you create or use an account on translations.ytstream247.com, we process:

• Email address and password (passwords are stored hashed by our backend)
• Authentication / session tokens
• Optional multi-factor authentication data if you enable MFA
• Linked YouTube channel IDs and plan / entitlement status
• Technical logs needed to operate login, entitlement checks, and support

3.2 Data stored in your browser

The extension stores locally (via Chrome storage), on your device:

• Session tokens and a cached account profile
• Extension settings (UI language, theme, selected target languages, provider choice)
• Translation API keys you enter yourself (for example OpenAI, Azure, Google Cloud Translation, or Gemini). In the current product model these keys stay on your device and are not required to be uploaded to our servers.

3.3 YouTube Studio content (in your browser session)

• Video titles and descriptions you choose to translate
• Page / channel context needed to run automation and entitlement checks

We do not upload your full YouTube Studio library to our servers as part of translation. Entitlement requests send channel identity so we can verify your plan.

3.4 Third-party translation providers

If you use OpenAI, Azure Translator, Google Cloud Translation, Gemini, or Google Translate (web), the title/description text is sent directly from your browser to that provider, under that provider’s own privacy policy and terms. The current version of YouTranslations does not proxy those translation requests through our servers.

4. Why we process data

• Provide accounts, plans, and channel limits
• Operate the extension features you request
• Prevent unauthorized use of paid plans
• Provide support and keep the service reliable and secure

5. Legal basis / consent

By creating an account and using the extension, you agree to the processing described in this policy as needed to provide the service. Where applicable law requires a specific legal basis (for example contract performance or legitimate interests), we rely on those bases to operate authentication, entitlement, and security.

6. Sharing

We do not sell your personal data. We may use hosting and infrastructure providers that process data on our behalf solely to run translations.ytstream247.com. Translation providers receive content only when you choose to use them (with your own API keys or Google Translate web).

We may disclose information if required by law, or to protect the rights, safety, and integrity of our users and service.

7. Retention

Account data is kept while your account is active and as reasonably needed for support, fraud prevention, and legal obligations. You may request account deletion by contacting us. Local extension storage is removed if you uninstall the extension or clear its site/extension data in Chrome.

8. Security

We use HTTPS for our API and standard practices for account authentication. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.

9. Children’s privacy

YouTranslations is not directed at children under 13 (or under 16 where required by local law). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

10. Your rights

Depending on your region, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete account data, or to object to certain processing. Contact us at the email above to make a request.

11. Chrome Web Store disclosures

For Chrome Web Store privacy practices, YouTranslations may handle: account authentication data, personally identifiable information (such as email), and website content from YouTube Studio pages you use with the extension, solely to provide app functionality. We do not sell user data. The extension does not remotely execute code hosted outside the extension package for its core logic.

12. Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top will change. Continued use of the service after an update means you accept the revised policy.
