This Privacy Policy explains how ytoutbid.lol ("we", "our", "us") handles information when you visit, browse, submit channels, or contribute on our public leaderboard platform.

ytoutbid.lol is designed to be lightweight, open, and transparent. We do not require account creation, passwords, or personal profile registrations.

2. Information We Collect

Public YouTube Channel Information: When a YouTube channel URL or @handle is submitted to the leaderboard, we fetch and display publicly available metadata (channel name, handle, avatar URL, subscriber count, and description) to identify the channel on the public board.

Contribution & Supporter Information: When you submit a bid or support a channel, you may optionally provide a display name and a brief public message. If you choose to remain anonymous, no personal name is attached to the contribution.

Payment Information: Financial transactions are processed directly by our third-party payment providers. ytoutbid.lol does not collect, store, or process raw credit card numbers or sensitive banking credentials.

Technical & Operational Logs: We collect standard server logs (such as IP address, browser type, request timestamps, and referring URLs) for the sole purposes of infrastructure monitoring, spam prevention, rate limiting, and security.

3. How We Use Information

  • To display, update, and rank channels on the public leaderboard.
  • To verify and resolve public YouTube channel handles and avatars.
  • To prevent fraud, duplicate abuse, spam, and malicious bot activity.
  • To maintain platform performance, reliability, and security.

4. Data Sharing & Third-Party Services
