Privacy Policy

Last updated: 11 November 2026

FB Mass Media Downloader is part of the Mass Media Downloader extension for Chrome, published by NovaByteWorks, an independent developer based in India. Your Facebook login stays in your browser. The photos and captions you save stay on your computer.

Never sent to us

• Your password, cookies or Facebook session tokens. Request templates and session tokens stay in your open Facebook tab’s memory and are used only for that site’s requests.
• Your downloaded photos, captions, media links or saved-photo lists. Media comes from Facebook’s fbcdn.net servers to your computer.
• Which single photos you save. Single-photo saves do not call the licence service or use a free slot.
• Your browsing history or the pages or profiles you only view. A panel plan check sends a null target, so it does not name the page or profile being viewed.

What the extension sends us

Our licence service at https://api.novabyteworks.com receives:

• A plan check: your logged-in Facebook account’s numeric id, its display name when available, your saved licence key if any, the product identifier and extension version. The target is null. Opening a base profile or its Photos tab may make this check even if you later save just one photo.
• When you start a whole-page or profile download: the same account and licence information, plus the page/profile vanity or numeric id you chose, to authorize the run and count the three free pages or profiles.
• When you activate a key: your key, account id and display name when available, and the product identifier.
• Public product settings: the product identifier. Like other HTTPS requests, these requests expose ordinary connection information such as your IP address to the service.

There are no media uploads, run-completion reports or download-statistics uploads.

What we keep

• No analytics. To run the free plan and licences, our licence service keeps a record of the downloads you start (your account, the profile, the time and how many runs), and of refused attempts.
• Your account id, display name when available, and the pages or profiles you download, to count your three free targets and link your licence to your account.
• Your licence key and purchase: the plan, amount, date and email address, to deliver and support it. Gumroad also reports the sale’s IP country, referring page and affiliate, if any.
• Feedback you send, with the email address you give and your IP address to stop spam.

We do not sell your data or use it for advertising.

What stays on this device

Extension storage holds your key and plan, hidden-panel preference and per-folder saved-photo records: photo ids, captions, Facebook photo-page links, dimensions, dates when supplied, filenames, file sizes and browser download ids. Signed CDN media links are not kept in these records. Only when you press Save list of saved photos does the extension export a local manifest.json, without browser download ids or signed media URLs.

Temporary run information and in-flight download ids stay in session storage so an interrupted run can be reported and unfinished extension downloads canceled. Your browser separately keeps its normal download history, which may include download URLs.

Removing the extension removes its extension storage. Downloaded files and exported photo lists, and browser download history, remain until you remove them separately. Closing the Facebook tab discards its in-memory request templates.

Who handles it for us

Our licence service runs on Cloudflare, which stores these records for us. It sees the IP address a request comes from and uses it to limit requests. Payments use Gumroad for this product, or Razorpay or Gumroad for the golden key depending on region, under their own Razorpay and Gumroad privacy policies. We never see your card or bank details.

Your rights

Email [email protected] to see or delete records linked to your Facebook account or licence. We keep account and licence records until you ask. Deleting them resets the free tier and removes the licence link.

Children

The extension is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect data from them.

Changes and contact

We will post changes here and update the date above. Contact NovaByteWorks at [email protected].

FB Mass Media Downloader is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Facebook. It cannot access private content you cannot see or bypass login, security checks or rate limits.
