The record

Purpose: Video Download Helper is a browser extension for detecting and downloading video and audio content from websites.
Formats and sites: It detects MP4 video, HLS and DASH streams, embedded videos, and audio streams such as MP3 across many websites.
Browser availability: The extension is available for Google Chrome, Firefox, and Microsoft Edge.
System requirements: The help page lists Firefox v140+, Chrome v143+, and Edge v143+ as system requirements.
Download workflow: When media is detected, the toolbar icon changes; users can choose a download, rename the file, and select another format when available.
Local processing: The privacy policy says video detection, media processing, and downloading happen locally in the browser.
Privacy: The policy says the extension does not run analytics, crash reporting, advertising, or tracking, and does not transmit usage data to its servers or third parties.
Data stored locally: Preferences and download history are stored on the device, and the policy says removing the extension deletes local data.
Network activity: The policy says the extension fetches a ruleset JSON file daily without sending information, and sends page and diagnostic details if the user chooses to report a bug.
Payment processing: The premium page says payments are processed by Stripe and that banking information is not accessed or stored on the company's servers.
License and updates: The premium page says a lifetime license never expires, annual access lasts through the paid period after cancellation, and premium users receive the latest version.
DRM limitation: Video DownloadHelper says it cannot and will not try to break DRM protections.
YouTube limitation: The support page says the Chrome extension does not download YouTube videos because Google does not allow Chrome extensions to do so.
Support: The premium license includes priority support, and the maker's support site provides documentation and a contact option.
