Data you provide
You provide a public TikTok or YouTube video URL and optional search or filter choices. The free workspace does not require a TikTok or YouTube account login.
Public comment data
Comments and replies can contain names, handles, text and public engagement counts. SearchComments processes provider-returned rows to display and export the requested view.
Caching and logs
Short-lived caches reduce repeated provider calls. When you continue from a free result into the matching platform’s advanced Exporter, the current result and filters are passed once through this tab’s session storage; the handoff expires after five minutes and is removed when opened. Operational logs record hashed client identifiers, result counts, timing, cache state and estimated cost; they are designed not to record API keys or comment bodies.
Accounts and payments
The free workspace works without a SearchComments account. Paid TikTok and YouTube export packs require an account managed by Clerk. Creem acts as merchant of record and processes checkout, payment, applicable indirect taxes and buyer receipts. SearchComments stores the account identifier, email, order references, purchased row credits and export usage needed to provide the service, but does not receive or store full payment-card details.
