Disclaimer – YouTube Thumbnail Downloader
I want to be completely clear about how this website works and what it does (and doesn't) do. Transparency matters, especially when we're talking about YouTube content.
What this tool is (and isn't)
This website was created to help people easily view and save YouTube thumbnails in different sizes. That's it.
It does not download videos, bypass paywalls, or give you access to private content. The only thing it retrieves is the publicly available thumbnail image that YouTube itself shows to anyone.
Think of it like taking a screenshot — only cleaner and faster.
Your responsibility
While downloading a thumbnail is 100% legal, how you use it is up to you.
- Saving thumbnails for personal use (research, inspiration, analysis) → perfectly fine.
- Reusing thumbnails in your own YouTube videos, ads, or public projects without permission → not recommended and could lead to copyright issues.
In short: use responsibly and respect creators' rights.
Accuracy and reliability
We do our best to keep the tool running smoothly. Still, technology isn't perfect. Thumbnails, video links, or even YouTube's own system may change over time. So while we aim for accuracy, we can't promise the tool will work 100% of the time or that every thumbnail will always be available.
External links
Sometimes you might find links here pointing to other websites or resources. We only share links we believe are useful, but we don't control what happens on those external sites. Things may change there without notice. Always double-check their own privacy policies and terms before sharing your data.
No liability
By using this site, you accept that you do so at your own risk. We can't take responsibility for how you use the downloaded images, or for any issues (technical, legal, or otherwise) that may arise from it.
Updates
From time to time, we may adjust this disclaimer if something changes — for example, if YouTube updates its policies or if we improve our tool. When that happens, we'll post the new version right here.
That's the whole point: download freely, but use wisely.
