PreserveTube uses Plausible to get an aproximate number of active users, and the most watched videos. No identifiable information, such as IPs, is stored. This Plausible instance is selfhosted, and not proxied through Cloudflare.

We use Caddy to reverse proxy our services. On certain ocassions, such as when errors occur in requests, Caddy might log these. These logs include headers, client IPs, and paths. Otherwise, our Caddy setup does not log any requests.

Logs are purged automatically once the file size reaches 50MB.

We use a combination of Cloudflare (preservetube.com), BasedFlare (preservetube.net), and selfhosted solutions (preservetube.org) for our DDoS protection. We additionally use Cloudflare Turnstile as a captcha to avoid automated bot traffic on the /save page.

Cloudflare's privacy policy can be found here: https://www.cloudflare.com/en-gb/privacypolicy/.
BasedFlare has no privacy policy. It should be assumed everything is logged. Avoid visiting preservetube.net if you're uncomfortable with this.

Besides Cloudflare and BasedFlare, PreserveTube also relies on ClouDNS for DNS services. ClouDNS's privacy policy can be found here: https://www.cloudns.net/privacy-policy/

Saving videos is completly anonymous. We do not log who saved a video.
