Privacy Policy
Who We Are
Okioto is an animation recommendation and indexing platform. Our mission is to help users discover and enjoy publicly available content from across the web. In addition to indexing third‑party content, we now allow our community to upload videos directly to our servers. This dual approach enables discovery of external content while allowing trusted community uploads.
Content Ownership, Indexing, and User Uploads
- Okioto indexes content that is already publicly available on external websites.
- Users may also upload their own videos to our platform.
By uploading content you represent and warrant that you either own the rights to the material or have obtained all necessary permissions and authorizations to share it on Okioto. Okioto does not endorse, pre‑verify, or take responsibility for user submissions.
Where credible reports of copyright infringement, intellectual property violations, or illegal material are received, Okioto will review and remove the content promptly in accordance with our removal procedures.
Strict Prohibition of Content Involving Minors
Uploading, sharing, or attempting to distribute material that includes minors is expressly prohibited. Any submission containing this type of content will be immediately deleted from our servers. The uploader bears full responsibility for posting such material and may be reported to the appropriate authorities. By using Okioto you explicitly agree to this policy.
Content Removal Requests
We respect creators’ rights. If you are a rights holder and wish to request removal of content, please contact us at [email protected]. Provide a detailed description of the material and proof of ownership. We commit to reviewing and removing infringing content promptly.
Data Collection and Usage
To improve user experience and maintain site performance, Okioto collects limited, anonymous data using third‑party analytics and webmaster tools. These include:
- Google Analytics for anonymous traffic and navigation metrics;
- Google Site Kit for performance insights;
- Google Search Console and Microsoft Search Console for visibility monitoring.
All data from these services is aggregated and anonymized. We do not collect personally identifiable information (PII) unless you voluntarily provide it.
Monetization and Ad Networks
Okioto is free to use and monetized through third‑party advertising networks such as ExoClick. ExoClick may use cookies or similar technologies to display relevant advertising based on general browsing patterns. We do not control ExoClick’s data practices; please review their privacy policy for details.
Cookies
We use cookies to enhance functionality, gather anonymous analytics data, and improve content relevance. Cookies do not personally identify visitors. Users must accept cookie consent via our GDPR‑compliant plugin.
External Links
Okioto may contain links to third‑party websites. We are not responsible for the content, practices, or privacy policies of these external sites. Please review third‑party privacy policies before interacting with them.
Why We Collect Data
We process anonymous data to:
- Improve site performance and user experience;
- Optimize content recommendations based on aggregated trends;
- Support the site through contextual advertising.
Our data practices rely on user consent where required and our legitimate interest in improving and securing our services.
Data Security
We implement technical and organizational measures to protect user information from unauthorized access, alteration, or misuse. However, no online service can guarantee absolute security.
Data Retention
Anonymous analytical data is retained only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described, unless a longer retention period is required by law.
Your Rights
As a user you have the right to:
- Request information about data we may hold;
- Request correction or deletion of your data;
- Withdraw consent where applicable.
To exercise these rights, contact us at [email protected].
Age Restriction
Okioto is strictly for users 18 years and older. Age verification is required upon accessing the site; users under 18 will be redirected away.
Responsible Content Use
Okioto does not create or distribute copyrighted material. We serve as both an indexing platform and a hosting platform for community uploads. In all cases, the uploader is fully responsible for the content they post. Reports of copyright infringement, illegal material, or content involving minors should be sent immediately to [email protected].
Legal Compliance
We strive to comply with applicable data protection regulations, including the GDPR and CCPA, to ensure users’ rights are respected and data is protected.

We reserve the right to update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal obligations. Updates are effective immediately upon posting. Please review this page regularly for changes.
