How we collect, use, and protect your personal information.
Last updated: 2026-10-22
Introduction
We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our service.
Your Videos
The clapping cat video maker runs entirely in your browser. The videos you upload or record, and the videos you export, are processed on your device and are never sent to our servers. We don't see, store or keep copies of them. Closing the page removes them from memory.
You don't need an account to use the video maker.
Information We Collect
We collect the following types of information to provide and improve our service:
- Account Information — Your name, email address, and other details you provide when creating an account.
- Usage Data — Information about how you interact with the service, including features accessed, frequency of use, and interaction patterns.
- Device Information — Device type, operating system, and browser type, used to optimize compatibility and performance.
- Cookies — Small data files stored on your device to remember preferences and improve your experience.
- Payment Information — Billing details handled by trusted third-party payment processors. We do not store full card numbers on our servers.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand how people find and use the site: which pages are viewed, roughly which country visitors come from, and which device and browser they use. Google Analytics sets cookies and receives this usage data directly from your browser. It never receives your videos or anything in them.
We also count how the video tool is used: for example, that a video was chosen, exported or downloaded, its file type and length, and which settings were on (such as whether a caption was added). The file name, the video itself and the caption text are never sent.
You can read how Google uses this data at How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services, and opt out with the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
How We Use Your Information
We use the data we collect to:
- Provide, maintain, and improve the service.
- Process transactions and send related confirmations.
- Send technical notices, security alerts, and support messages.
- Respond to your questions, feedback, and support requests.
- Detect, prevent, and address fraud and abuse.
Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal information. We may share data only in these limited cases:
- With service providers who help us operate the service, under confidentiality agreements.
- To comply with legal obligations or respond to lawful requests from public authorities.
- To protect our rights, property, or safety, or that of our users.
Data Security
We implement industry-standard security measures including encryption in transit, access controls, and regular reviews. No method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, but we work continuously to protect your information.

You have the right to access, update, export, or delete your personal information. To exercise these rights, email us at hello@clappingcat.app.
