Privacy Policy

Last Updated: January 10, 2025

1. Introduction

Welcome to AI Video Detector ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website aivideodetector.com and use our deepfake detection services.

By using our Service, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with the terms of this Privacy Policy, please do not access or use the Service.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Video Files (NOT Collected)

✓ Important: Your uploaded videos are NEVER sent to our servers.

All video processing happens entirely in your web browser using client-side JavaScript. Your video files never leave your device, and we have no technical capability to access, store, or view them.

2.2 Automatically Collected Information

When you visit our website, we may automatically collect certain information about your device through standard web server logs, including:

  • Usage Data: Pages visited, time spent on pages, links clicked, and other diagnostic data
  • Device Information: Browser type and version, operating system, screen resolution
  • IP Address: Your Internet Protocol address (which may indicate your general location)
  • Cookies: Essential cookies required for website functionality

Note: We collect minimal usage data through standard web server logs to improve our website performance and user experience.

2.3 Information You Provide

We do not require registration or account creation to use our Service. However, if you choose to contact us via email, we may collect:

  • Your email address
  • Your name (if voluntarily provided)
  • The content of your message or inquiry

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the limited information we collect for the following purposes:

  • Service Provision: To provide, maintain, and improve our AI video detection tool
  • Analytics: To understand how users interact with our website and identify areas for improvement
  • Communication: To respond to your inquiries and provide customer support
  • Legal Compliance: To comply with applicable laws, regulations, and legal processes

4. Cookies

We use essential cookies required for the website to function properly. Cookies are small data files stored on your device that help our website remember your preferences and maintain functionality.

4.1 Types of Cookies We Use

  • Essential Cookies: Required for the website to function properly, including session management and security features

4.2 Managing Cookies

You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept essential cookies, some portions of our Service may not function properly. Most browsers allow you to manage cookie preferences through their settings menu.

5. Third-Party Open-Source Libraries

Our video detection tool uses the following open-source libraries that run entirely in your browser:

  • FFmpeg.wasm: For video processing and metadata extraction
  • face-api.js: For AI-powered facial detection and analysis
  • TensorFlow.js: Machine learning framework that powers face detection

These libraries process your videos entirely in your browser. No video data is sent to external servers or third-party services.

6. Data Security

The security of your data is important to us. Since our video detection processing occurs entirely in your browser, your video files are never transmitted over the internet or stored on our servers.

For the limited data we do collect (analytics and contact information), we implement commercially reasonable security measures to protect it. However, please note that no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure.

Important: While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. Transmission of data via the internet is inherently risky.

7. Data Retention

We retain automatically collected information (analytics data) for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

Since we do not collect or store your uploaded video files, there is no video data retention to disclose.

8. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information under data protection laws such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).
