NovaTube News is a video news aggregator that pulls publicly available content from YouTube to deliver live and trending news coverage. It does not require account registration for browsing, and only minimal technical data such as device type, browser type, and anonymized usage statistics may be collected to improve the service. Videos are retrieved via the YouTube Data API and played through links to YouTube, meaning YouTube's own privacy policy applies once you click through. The platform uses only the minimal cookies necessary for functionality, without any tracking cookies for advertising.
