Privacy Policy
Last updated: March 3, 2026
Overview
YT2Apple Music is a free tool that helps you find songs on Apple Music from YouTube. This policy covers both the website (yt2apple.vercel.app) and the Chrome extension. We are committed to your privacy and collect as little data as possible.
What the Chrome Extension Does
The extension reads the current YouTube page to detect:
- Video title
- Channel name
- Video URL / ID
This information is used solely to search for a matching song on Apple Music. It is never stored on our servers, never sold, and never shared with third parties for advertising or tracking.
Data We Collect
We do not collect any personal data. No accounts, no emails, no names, no cookies for tracking, no analytics in the extension.
The website uses Vercel Analytics for anonymous, aggregate page view counts. No personally identifiable information is collected by the analytics.
External Services
The extension and website contact the following services:
- iTunes Search API (Apple) — to look up song metadata and find Apple Music links
- YouTube oEmbed API (Google) — to fetch video title and channel name from a video ID
- Supabase (community database) — to check if a verified YouTube-to-Apple Music mapping already exists, improving speed and accuracy
No personal or identifying information is sent to these services. Only the YouTube video ID and song search queries are transmitted.
Local Storage
The Chrome extension uses chrome.storage.local to save:
- Your extension settings (e.g. OpenAI API key if provided)
- Cached song mappings to avoid repeated lookups
This data stays on your device and is never transmitted anywhere. You can clear it at any time through the extension settings or by removing the extension.
Permissions Explained
- activeTab — Read the current YouTube page to detect the song title and artist
- storage — Save your settings and cached song mappings locally on your device
- tabs — Open Apple Music links in a new tab when you click "Play on Apple Music"
- Host permissions — Access YouTube (content script), iTunes API (song lookup), Apple Music (open songs), and Supabase (community database)
Children's Privacy
YT2Apple Music is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect any information from children.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date. Continued use of the extension or website constitutes acceptance of any changes.
