Privacy

We do not know who you are, and we are not trying to find out.

The recount page has no account, no sign-in and no tracker. It sets no cookies. This is the whole of it, in plain words.

What we store

One row each time someone converts a video, and it describes the VIDEO, never the person. It holds the video id, its channel id and name, the format, the two view numbers we just showed you, how much of that video’s life ran under the new rule, and its publish date.

One row for each visit, so we can tell whether the page is worth keeping: how far down the page you got, how long you stayed, how many videos you converted, and a code that lets us see the same browser come back.

That code is the part worth being precise about, because it is the only thing here that is about you. We take your IP address and the name your browser sends, mix them with a secret, and keep only the scrambled result. It always comes out the same for the same browser, so we can tell a returning reader from a new one. It cannot be turned back into an address, not by us and not by anyone who took the file, and it is not linked to a name, an email or an account, because we hold none of those.

Two more fields come from your request rather than the page. If you arrived from a link, we keep the bare site name you came from, so instagram.com and never the full address, because a full address can carry a search you typed or a private page you were on. And if the link carried a ?ref= tag, we keep up to 40 characters of it, so we can tell which post sent you.

What we do not store

Not your IP address. It is used to make the scrambled code above and then it is gone. We never write it down.

No cookies, and nothing at all saved in your browser. No account, because there is no account to make. No email, no sign-up, no newsletter. No advertising or analytics script of any kind, from us or from anyone else. Nothing that follows you to another site.

Who else sees a request

  • Google and YouTube. We ask YouTube’s public data service for the video you pasted, using our own key. Thumbnails and channel pictures load straight from YouTube, so your browser talks to Google the same way it does on YouTube itself.
  • The company that hosts this page and the database behind it. Like any web host, ours keeps ordinary server logs.
  • Anywhere you click to. The page links out to reporting and to Google’s own documentation. Once you leave, that site’s rules apply, not ours.

Children

The page is not aimed at children and collects nothing that could identify one.
