Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how AniClips (“we,” “us,” or “our”) may collect, use, store, and share information when you visit aniclips.site or use its features.

AniClips is an online anime clip discovery and editing library. We aim to process information that is reasonably needed to operate, maintain, secure, and improve the service. This policy should be read alongside our Terms of Use.

2. Information We Process

A. Usage information and counters

We maintain website usage information, which may include pages or anime entries visited, clip or download interactions, and aggregate visit and download counts. Some backend records may be associated with individual requests or events, while aggregate counters do not necessarily identify a particular visitor.

B. Technical and diagnostic information

When your browser requests pages or media, AniClips and the providers involved in hosting, delivering, or securing the service may process technical information such as your IP address, requested URL, timestamps, browser or device details, referring page information where supplied, and diagnostic or security logs. Which details are recorded and how long they are kept depends on the relevant system and its configuration.

C. Feedback you send

If you submit feedback, we receive the information you choose to include in your message. Feedback may be forwarded to our designated Telegram account or channel so it can be reviewed. Telegram processes information under its own policies and infrastructure.

Please do not include passwords, payment credentials, government identifiers, sensitive personal information, or other private details that are not necessary to explain your feedback.

D. Cookies and similar technologies

AniClips or third-party services integrated into the website may use cookies, local storage, or similar technologies for functionality, preferences, security, advertising, or measurement. The technologies actually used depend on the features and providers currently enabled. You can manage cookies through your browser settings, though blocking them may affect some features.

3. How We Use Information

Information may be used to:

• Operate the library and deliver pages, previews, and clips.
• Maintain visit and download statistics.
• Diagnose outages, errors, and performance problems.
• Detect abuse, automated attacks, and other security issues.
• Review feedback and respond to user concerns.
• Understand service usage and improve the website.
• Support advertising and measure advertising performance, where applicable.
• Comply with applicable laws and respond to valid legal requests.

Not every activity listed above necessarily occurs on every visit. Processing depends on the features you use and the services involved.

4. Advertising and Third-Party Services

AniClips may display advertisements and use third-party advertising, hosting, storage, content delivery, or security services. Those providers may process technical identifiers, cookies, IP addresses, usage information, or other data needed to provide their services, subject to their own policies and applicable law.

Third-party advertising technologies may independently display advertisements, limit repeated ads, detect invalid traffic, or measure advertising performance. We do not control every data-processing practice of external providers, so we encourage you to review their privacy policies where relevant.

AniClips does not operate every third-party service that may appear or be used on the site. If an external script or service is enabled, its processing may be governed by that provider's terms and privacy policy.

5. How Information Is Shared

Information may be shared in limited circumstances:

• Service providers: With providers that host, deliver, secure, or help operate the website.
• Feedback handling: With the designated Telegram destination when you submit feedback through a feature that forwards it there.
• Security and enforcement: Where reasonably necessary to investigate abuse, protect the service, or enforce our Terms of Use.
• Legal obligations: When disclosure is required by applicable law or a valid legal process.
• Operational changes: In connection with a transfer or reorganization of the service, subject to applicable law.

We do not sell personal information as a business model. However, whether a particular advertising or analytics disclosure counts as “sharing,” “sale,” or targeted advertising under a specific privacy law depends on that law and the relevant provider arrangement.

6. Data Retention

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, such as operating the website, maintaining statistics, handling feedback, addressing abuse, resolving disputes, or meeting legal obligations.

Usage counters, technical logs, and feedback messages may have different retention periods. Feedback may remain in the relevant Telegram account or channel until deleted under the practices of the account owner and the service. We cannot guarantee immediate deletion from third-party backups or systems we do not control.

7. Data Security

We take reasonable measures appropriate to the service to protect information against unauthorized access, misuse, loss, or alteration. However, no website, internet transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure, and we cannot promise absolute security.

8. Your Choices and Privacy Rights

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information, or to ask questions about how it is processed.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings. You may also contact us with a privacy request or complaint using the details below. We may need to verify your identity or request additional information before acting. Requests will be handled in accordance with applicable law, and some information may need to be retained for security, legal, or operational reasons.

9. Children's Privacy

AniClips is not intended to encourage children to provide unnecessary personal information. Please do not submit sensitive personal details through feedback or other website features. If you believe a child has provided personal information inappropriately, contact us so we can review the matter and take appropriate steps where required by law.

10. External Links

AniClips may link to third-party websites or services. Once you leave our website, the privacy practices of the destination apply. We are not responsible for the privacy policies or practices of services we do not operate.

11. International Processing

Our hosting, infrastructure, and third-party service providers may process information in locations outside your country of residence. Where applicable, such processing is subject to the legal requirements governing the relevant transfer.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as AniClips changes its features, infrastructure, advertising integrations, or data practices. Updates will be published on this page with a revised effective date. We encourage visitors to review the policy periodically.
