How Our Service Works
When you use our YouTube Sentiment Analyzer, here's what happens:
- You submit a YouTube URL: The URL is processed to extract the video ID
- We fetch public comments: Using YouTube's public API, we retrieve up to 100 public comments from the video
- Real-time analysis: Comments are sent to OpenAI's API for sentiment analysis
- Results are returned: Analysis results are sent back to your browser
- Data is discarded: All data (URL, comments, results) is immediately purged from our servers
Data Processing
Our privacy-first approach:
- No Storage: We do not save any data to our servers or databases
- No Tracking: We do not track user behavior or create user profiles
- No Logs: We do not maintain logs of user activity
- No Cookies: We do not use cookies or similar tracking technologies
- Real-time Only: All processing happens in real-time and is immediately discarded
Third-Party Services
Our service uses two third-party APIs:
YouTube Data API v3
We use YouTube's public API to fetch comments from videos. This is subject to YouTube's own privacy policy and terms of service. We only access publicly available comment data.
OpenAI API
We use OpenAI's GPT-4o model for sentiment analysis. Comments are sent to OpenAI for processing and are subject to OpenAI's privacy policy. We do not store the comments or analysis results.
