This Privacy Policy explains how Downix handles information when you use downix.org and related services.
1. Information We Process
When you use the downloader, we process the URL you submit, security verification data, browser and device signals used for abuse prevention, and standard technical logs such as IP address, user agent, request time, and error codes.
When you contact us, we process the email address and message you provide so we can respond to your request.
2. Cookies and Local Storage
Downix may use local storage or similar browser storage to cache non-sensitive client-side signals, such as a browser fingerprint result, bot-detection result, or connectivity probe result. This improves performance and avoids repeating expensive checks on every request.
3. Security and Abuse Prevention
We use Cloudflare Turnstile and client-side signals to reduce spam, automated abuse, and service misuse. These checks may involve third-party infrastructure operated by Cloudflare and other service providers.
4. Analytics
We may use Google Analytics to understand aggregate usage trends, improve page performance, and identify issues. Analytics data is used in aggregate and is not intended to identify individual users directly.
5. How We Use Information
We use information to provide and maintain the service, process submitted links, respond to support requests, monitor reliability, prevent abuse, comply with legal obligations, and improve Downix.
6. Sharing
We may share information with service providers that help operate Downix, such as hosting, security, analytics, and API infrastructure providers. We may also disclose information when required by law or when necessary to protect rights, safety, and service integrity.
7. Data Retention
We retain information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including security, troubleshooting, legal compliance, and support.
8. Your Choices
You can disable or clear browser storage through your browser settings. You may contact us to request access, deletion, or correction of personal information where applicable law grants those rights.
9. Children
Downix is not intended for anyone under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors.
