Terms of Service

What the service does

SaveThisMedia is a technical tool. You give it the address of a publicly visible post on X (formerly Twitter); it reads the media addresses that the platform itself publishes for that post and hands them to your browser so you can save the file at its original quality. It can also bundle several files into a ZIP archive and cut a chosen span out of a video.

We host no media. Every file originates from the content delivery network of X (formerly Twitter) and is never stored on our servers. We maintain no library, no archive and no searchable index of anyone’s content.

What the service does not do

• It does not access private or protected accounts. If a post is not visible to the public, it is not visible to this tool either, and no attempt is made to get around that.
• It does not defeat any technical protection measure, paywall, encryption or access control.
• It does not require, request or store credentials for any other service.

Your responsibilities

The copyright in a video or photo belongs to whoever created it, not to you and not to us. You are solely responsible for what you download and for what you do with it afterwards.

You agree that you will:

• Only download material you created yourself, material you have permission to download, or material whose use is otherwise permitted by law in your country - for example a genuine fair use, fair dealing, private copying or quotation exception.
• Not republish, redistribute, monetise or claim authorship of anyone else’s work.
• Respect the terms of service of X (formerly Twitter) and the rights of the people who made the content.
• Not use the service for anything unlawful, including harassment, or to obtain material that is illegal to possess or distribute.
• Not attempt to overload, scrape, automate against or otherwise interfere with the service, and not circumvent its rate limits.

Downloading content in order to republish it without permission is copyright infringement. It is against these terms, and doing it is your liability, not ours.

Copyright complaints

If you own the rights to something and believe this service is being used to infringe them, our Copyright and DMCA Policy explains how to tell us and what we will do about it.

Availability

The service is provided free of charge and on an “as is” basis. It depends entirely on a third-party platform we do not control, so it may be interrupted, rate limited, degraded or discontinued at any time and without notice. Some media is licensed by region and its host will refuse it to our server even though your own browser could fetch it - when that happens the tool tells you so and offers you the original link instead.

We give no warranty that the service will be available, error free, or fit for any particular purpose, and we do not guarantee that any given link will work.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the operator of SaveThisMedia is not liable for any indirect, incidental or consequential loss arising from your use of the service, nor for any claim brought against you as a result of what you chose to download. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

No affiliation

SaveThisMedia is an independent project. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by or connected to X Corp. in any way. All trademarks referred to on this site belong to their respective owners, and are used only to describe what the tool is compatible with.

Ending access

We may block access to anyone who breaks these terms or who places an unreasonable load on the service, without notice and at our discretion.

Changes and governing law

These terms may change; the revision date at the top of this page tells you when they last did. They are governed by the law of the Netherlands, without regard to its conflict of law rules, and nothing here removes consumer rights you have where you live.
