h2 How the data is shared
p It is not.
p Data stored by the site remains within the site, and is never shared with other companies or individuals.
h3 With YouTube
p YouTube is a company owned by Google, Inc. CloudTube displays information from YouTube.
p When you perform a query on CloudTube that requires data from YouTube, such as making a search or loading a video, your query is forwarded to YouTube.
p For example, when searching, YouTube receives a query for those search terms, and when watching a video, YouTube receives a page load for that video.
p When watching a video, your browser connects to googlevideo.com directly to request the video stream. This connection, and any data stored by YouTube as a result, is subject to #[a(href="https://policies.google.com/privacy") Google's privacy policy].
p All other queries are forwarded to your selected Invidious instance, which forwards them to YouTube. YouTube does not receive any metadata about you for these queries, only the query itself.
h3 With other organisations
p CloudTube does not share any data with other people or organisations.
h2 How to delete your data
p #[a(href="/settings") Visit the settings page] and find the "delete data" section. Read the text.
p To delete your data, check "I understand the consequences", then click "permanently erase my data".
p This will erase all of your data from the server, and delete the identifying cookie from your web browser.
