<strong>Why use it</strong>
<ul><li><strong>No sign-up, no account, no tracking</strong> - the extension does not collect, store or transmit any personal data.</li><li><strong>No software to install</strong> - conversion happens on the BigConverter website, nothing runs on your machine besides the browser.</li><li><strong>Free and unlimited</strong> - MP3 up to 320 kbps, MP4 up to 1080p.</li><li><strong>Tiny</strong> - under 30 KB.</li></ul>
<strong>How it works</strong>

When you click Convert, the extension opens a new tab on BigConverter with your video URL already filled in. The conversion happens on the BigConverter site, which fetches the audio or video from YouTube's servers and delivers a download link.

The extension itself only reads the URL of the YouTube tab you're on, and only when you click. It does not read the page content, your history, cookies, or any other data.

<strong>Privacy</strong>

The extension declares "no data collection" in its manifest. No analytics. No telemetry. No third-party scripts. The complete source is reviewed by Mozilla before publishing.
