Privacy
A short, plain-language account of the only data this site touches. No dark patterns, no advertising profiles.
There are no accounts
Cartoon Watch Online has no sign-up, no login and no user profiles. We do not ask for a name, an email address or a birth date to watch anything.
What stays in your browser
Your favourites, your recently watched list and your last few searches are saved in your own browser storage so the site can show them back to you. They are not transmitted to us and they disappear when you clear your browser data.
What our server records
When a watch page is opened we record an anonymous, randomly generated visitor identifier against that video so the trending list can be built from real activity. The identifier is created in your browser, contains nothing about you, and is not linked to any account or email address. We also store the messages you choose to send through the contact form.
YouTube
Videos are played through the YouTube embed player, which is operated by Google. When you press play, YouTube may set its own cookies and collect playback data under its own privacy policy. We do not control that, and nothing plays until you choose to start it. Thumbnails are served from YouTube image hosts.
Analytics
If site analytics are enabled, they are only loaded after you accept them, and they record aggregate page views rather than anything that identifies you. Decline and the analytics script is never requested.
Contact
Messages sent through the contact form are stored so we can reply to them. Ask us to delete a message and we will remove it.
