BlitzReels extension privacy policy

Last updated: September 10, 2026.

BlitzReels - Save video moments lets you save and revisit YouTube timestamps and notes. It is free and does not require an account. BlitzReels is operated by Virgile Rietsch, an auto-entrepreneur registered in France.

What the extension reads and stores

The extension checks the current YouTube URL to place its button. When you open the popup or choose Use current time, it reads the selected video's URL, title, duration and playback time. It does not read your broader browsing history or monitor playback in the background.

When you choose Save moment, it stores the canonical video URL, video ID, title, start time, optional end time, your note, a bookmark ID and the date saved. These records stay in Chrome's local extension storage on this device. They are not synced to a server or sent to BlitzReels.

Images and optional website visits

The popup loads thumbnails directly from YouTube's image servers. Requests disclose your IP address and the requested thumbnail to YouTube. The extension omits referrer information from these requests.

Open at a timestamp opens the original video on YouTube. Copy link writes the timestamped video URL to your clipboard when you click that action; the extension does not read your clipboard.

Open BlitzReels opens the BlitzReels homepage with campaign tags identifying the extension as the referral source. The link contains no saved video, timestamp or note. Activity after visiting the website is covered by the BlitzReels privacy policy.

Your control

Remove deletes a saved moment from local storage. Undo can restore the most recently removed moment while the popup remains open. Uninstalling the extension removes its local library. Chrome site-access settings control where the YouTube button can appear.

Upgrading from the earlier clipping prototype removes its locally stored credentials and job cache. The extension does not use those credentials.

Other data use

The extension does not extract or record videos, audio or transcripts. It does not collect passwords, access website cookies, run analytics or share saved data with advertisers. Code, fonts and branding are bundled inside the extension.
