Privacy Policy

Last updated: 11 November 2026

TH Mass Media Downloader is part of the Mass Media Downloader extension for Chrome, published by NovaByteWorks, an independent developer based in India. Your Threads login stays in your browser. The images, videos and audio you save stay on your computer.

Never sent to us

• Your password, cookies or Threads session tokens. Request templates and session tokens stay in your open Threads tab’s memory and are used only for that site’s requests.
• Your downloaded images, videos or audio. Media comes from Threads’ cdninstagram.com and fbcdn.net servers to your computer. Separate HD video and audio tracks are joined locally with the bundled video tool.
• Which single posts you save. Single-post saves do not call the licence service or use a free slot.
• Your browsing history or the profiles you only view. A panel plan check sends a null target, so it does not name the profile being viewed.

What the extension sends us

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

• A plan check: your logged-in Threads account’s numeric id, its username when available, your saved licence key if any, the product identifier and extension version. The target is null.
• When you start a whole-profile download: the same account and licence information, plus the profile’s username you chose, to authorize the run and count the three free profiles.
• When you activate a key: your key, account id and username 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, username when available, and the 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 options, key and plan, per-profile file records (file paths, browser download ids, quality, dates saved and byte counts), and local file and byte totals. These records do not contain Threads session tokens or signed media URLs. Reset saved-file record removes that profile’s extension record and keeps your actual files.

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 browser download history, remain until you remove them separately. Closing the Threads 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 Threads 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].

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