A permanent public link can expose a saved file well beyond the intended session. Short-lived links limit that window.
VidTransfer stores eligible output privately and issues a signed URL. Download it before the retention period ends, then keep your own secure backup.
A practical checklist
- Confirm you own the video or have explicit permission to save it.
- Use an official export or creator-enabled download when one is available.
- Choose the source quality that fits your storage and editing needs.
- Keep a record of where the file came from and when you saved it.
VidTransfer only processes a download when an authorized file is available. Recognizing a link is not the same as granting access to its media.
