Downtools respects the rights of content creators across every platform it supports. Here's how takedowns work.
Last updated: 31 Jul 2026Downtools is a pass-through tool: it fetches publicly available media on request and streams it to the user's device. We do not store, index, or maintain a library of downloaded content on our servers — this applies across all supported sources:
If you believe Downtools' functionality is being used to infringe your copyright and you'd like to submit a notice under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), please send us the following:
On receiving a valid notice, we'll review it and take appropriate action, which may include disabling the ability to process links related to the reported content, on whichever platform it originates from.
If you believe access was restricted in error, you can submit a counter-notice with your contact details and a statement of good faith belief that the content was wrongly identified.
Downloading content doesn't grant you any ownership or redistribution rights, on any of the supported platforms. Please only download content you own, have permission for, or intend to use strictly for personal, non-commercial viewing.
Email your DMCA notice or counter-notice via our Contact page. Please put "DMCA Notice" in the subject line so it reaches us quickly.
