Privacy Policy

Long Video Notes does not require an account to read handouts.

Analytics

We may use privacy-conscious analytics (such as Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity or Cloudflare Web Analytics) to understand which pages are useful. These services may set cookies or collect anonymised usage data such as pages viewed, device type and approximate location.

Advertising

We may show ads served by Google and its partners. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. You can opt out of personalised advertising at Google Ads Settings or aboutads.info.

Handout lookups and requests

When you open a video link on this site (such as /watch?v=…, /playlist?list=… or /video/BV…), paste one into the search box, or press "Request this handout", we record the YouTube video or playlist ID or the Bilibili video ID (BV number), whether we already have a handout, your country (from Cloudflare) and a one-way hash of your IP address that changes every day. We use this only to count how many different people want each handout. We never store your IP address itself, and we do not download or process the video.

Desktop app notification signup

If you sign up on the desktop app page, we store your email address, the platforms you ticked (Mac and/or Windows), the video link you entered on this site (if any), your country (from Cloudflare) and the signup time. We use this only to email you when the desktop app is available and to see which platforms and videos people want it for. We do not share it or use it for advertising. To have your signup deleted, ask us via the contact page from the address you signed up with.

We also still hold earlier early-access signups (email address, platform preferences, signup page and country) in the same list; they can be deleted the same way. If you sign up again with the same email, your earlier details are replaced by the new ones.
