MediaGrab

Responsible Use

MediaGrab is a technical tool. How you use it is your responsibility. Please read the following guidelines to ensure you use this service ethically and legally.

Core Principle

Only download media you own or are authorized to use, and comply with the rules of the source platform and applicable law.

Appropriate Uses
When using MediaGrab is acceptable

MediaGrab is designed for legitimate, personal use such as:

  • Downloading your own content — videos, audio, or images you created and uploaded to a platform.
  • Saving content you have explicit permission from the creator to download.
  • Downloading content that is explicitly public domain or released under a Creative Commons license that permits downloading.
  • Personal archiving of publicly available content where permitted by your jurisdiction's laws.
What MediaGrab Does NOT Support
Activities that are prohibited

MediaGrab must not be used to:

  • Download copyrighted content you do not own or have authorization to download.
  • Bypass DRM (Digital Rights Management) or any form of copy protection or encryption.
  • Access private or login-required content — MediaGrab only works with publicly accessible URLs and does not bypass authentication.
  • Bypass paywalls or access subscription-only content without a valid subscription.
  • Redistribute, resell, or commercially exploit downloaded content without the rights holder's permission.
  • Circumvent platform restrictions or terms of service of source platforms.
  • Mass-download or scrape content using automated bots or scripts.
Copyright & Your Responsibility
You are responsible for your downloads

MediaGrab is a technical tool that processes URLs you provide. It does not verify whether you have the right to download specific content. The responsibility for ensuring you have the necessary rights or permissions lies entirely with you.

Copyright laws vary by country. What may be permissible in one jurisdiction may be prohibited in another. MediaGrab does not provide legal advice and makes no claims about the legality of any specific download.

If you are unsure whether you have the right to download specific content, consult with a legal professional or err on the side of caution and do not download it.

Platform Terms of Service
Third-party platform rules apply

MediaGrab is an independent tool and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to any of the supported platforms (YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, etc.). All trademarks are the property of their respective owners.

Many platforms have their own terms of service that govern how their content may be accessed and used. You are responsible for complying with the terms of service of any platform from which you download content through MediaGrab.

Copyright holders can submit takedown requests through our DMCA & Copyright Policy page.
