L’application

Ce qui reste sur votre ordinateur

Votre liste de téléchargements, vos paramètres, les identifiants que vous enregistrez dans Connexions aux sites, l’historique de chaque téléchargement et les fichiers que vous téléchargez sont stockés uniquement sur votre ordinateur : dans %APPDATA%\misterdownloadmanager sous Windows (ou le dossier data de la version portable), et dans le dossier de données d’application habituel sous macOS et Linux. Rien n’est envoyé en ligne. La désinstallation propose de les supprimer. À partir de la version 0.5.0, les mots de passe des Connexions aux sites, du proxy et des comptes de débridement sont stockés dans le trousseau du système (Gestionnaire d’informations d’identification Windows, le trousseau sous Linux, le trousseau macOS), toujours sur votre ordinateur, lorsqu’il est présent et déverrouillé.

Avec qui l’application communique, et pourquoi

• The servers you download from. To download a file, GDM connects to the server that holds it and sends what any browser would: the request, and the cookies, referrer and browser identification the extension passed along, so downloads that need you to be signed in keep working. Those servers see your IP address, as they would if your browser downloaded the file.
• Your proxy, if you set one in Options → Proxy / Socks, and your network's proxy auto-config script, if you point GDM at one.
• Updates server, to check for updates. Each time it starts, and once a day while it stays open, GDM checks for the latest release of GDM. The request carries GDM's version in its User-Agent and nothing else. Turn the check off in Help → Check for updates (Check for updates at every start).
• GitHub, for video helpers. If you use Download video from a page, GDM downloads yt-dlp (and ffmpeg, if you want merged qualities) from their official releases, checks them, and once per session asks whether yt-dlp has a newer release. yt-dlp then talks to the video site you asked for, as your browser would.
• Torrent peers and trackers. When you download a torrent, GDM connects to the trackers listed in the torrent, to the BitTorrent DHT network and to other peers, who see your IP address and which pieces you have. To accept connections it may ask your router to open a port (UPnP). This is how BitTorrent works; it ends when the torrent stops.
• Your AI assistant, only if you connect one. GDM's MCP server (misterdownloadmanager-mcp) talks only to the GDM on your computer. But if you add it to an AI assistant (Claude, Cursor, VS Code…) and turn on the automation API, the assistant can read your download list, and what it reads (file names, addresses, folders) goes to that assistant's AI service, under its privacy terms. Nothing of this happens unless you set it up; see AI assistants.

À partir de la version 0.5.0, uniquement si vous les choisissez :

• The DNS you choose. With a DNS other than the system's in Options → Connection → DNS (Cloudflare, Google, Quad9, AdGuard, NextDNS or your own), GDM asks it, over HTTPS, TLS or TCP, for the addresses of the servers it downloads from. That service sees those names and your IP address, under its own privacy terms.
• Vos comptes de débridement. Un lien ou un torrent que vous envoyez via un compte Real-Debrid, AllDebrid ou Premiumize dans Options → Comptes est transmis à ce service, qui fournit ensuite le fichier. Votre connexion reste sur votre ordinateur, avec les mots de passe mentionnés ci-dessus.
• Codeberg, for gallery-dl. If you download an image gallery, GDM installs gallery-dl from its official releases on Codeberg and checks its author's signature; gallery-dl then talks to the site you asked for.
• A torrent IP blocklist, if you give one: GDM fetches it from the address you entered, again every 7 days.
• Your own devices, for the remote control. Off until you turn it on in Options → Remote: then GDM answers, over HTTPS on your local network, only the phones and computers you paired with its code.

The server's country that Download File Info and the progress window show comes from a table inside GDM: no address is sent anywhere to look it up.

GDM has no analytics, no automatic crash reporting, no telemetry and no advertising (a crash report goes only where you send it yourself). It never sends us your download list, the addresses you download, or anything else.

Signaler un problème

Help → Report a problem opens GitHub's bug report form in your browser with GDM's version, your system and its version, how GDM was installed and your language filled in. Nothing is sent until you choose to submit it on GitHub, where it becomes public; read it before you post.

L'API d'automatisation

The automation API is off by default. When you turn it on, it listens only on 127.0.0.1 (your own computer) and answers only programs that present the secret token from GDM's data folder.

L’extension de navigateur

The GolinksPRO Download Manager extension for Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera, Vivaldi and Firefox:

• When you start a download that GDM should take, it passes the download's address (and where its redirects led), the page it came from, the site's cookies for that address, your browser's User-Agent, and the file's name, size and type to GDM on your computer, through the browser's native-messaging channel. Nothing goes over the internet.
• Once you switch on Send downloads through this browser's proxy or VPN extension in its popup (Firefox asks you first), when the browser uses a proxy for a download (set by a VPN or proxy extension, or in its settings), the extension passes the proxy's address, or its proxy auto-config script, so GDM downloads through the same proxy. It never reads or passes the proxy's login. It notes only that a proxy asked for one, so GDM can tell you it can't use that proxy. Switched off (as installed), it reads nothing of the browser's proxy.
• When a download comes from a form you submitted, it passes the form's data too, so GDM can submit it again. It notes the data of forms you submit (in memory, used for two minutes at most, never stored) only for that.
• It notes the addresses of video streams (HLS and DASH playlists) a page's player loads, in memory for that tab, so the Download video button can pass the stream on. Its button reads the page only to find video and sound players and place itself. Clicking it passes the page's address, the video's address, the page's title, the site's cookies, the page that embeds the player and your browser's User-Agent to GDM.
• Download selected links and Download all links read the links of the page (or of your selection) when you choose them, and pass them to GDM with the page's address and its site's cookies.
• It notes where page loads' redirects started and ended (in memory, for two minutes), so GDM gets the address you clicked, not only where it led.
• Un petit script dans chaque page ne note que les liens sur lesquels vous cliquez en maintenant la touche Alt enfoncée, afin que ces téléchargements restent avec le navigateur ; les adresses sont conservées en mémoire pendant quelques secondes.
• Every message to GDM also says which browser it comes from (its name, as the browser tells it) and the extension's version.
• It stores its own settings (paused or not, GDM's file types and excluded sites, its connection status, where you dragged the video button on each of the last 200 sites; nothing from private windows) in the browser's extension storage, on your computer.
• Il n’a pas de code distant, pas d’analyses et pas de publicités, et n’envoie rien à nous ou à quiconque.

Its permissions, and why: downloads to see and hand over downloads; cookies so signed-in downloads work in GDM; nativeMessaging to talk to GDM; contextMenus for the right-click items; storage for its settings; webRequest to see forms submitted and video streams loaded (it changes nothing); declarativeNetRequestWithHostAccess (Chrome, Edge and other Chromium browsers) to have the files the browser would open (a PDF) downloaded instead, for the types GDM takes; in Firefox, webRequestBlocking does that; scripting to read a page's links when you ask, and to add the video button to pages already open when the extension is installed; proxy to read which proxy the browser uses, so downloads taken from a browser behind a VPN or proxy extension go through it too, only while you have that switched on in the popup (it never changes the browser's proxy; in Firefox it is optional, asked for when you switch it on; Chrome and the other Chromium browsers can't make it optional, and count it under the access to all sites); access to all sites because downloads and videos can come from any site.

Ce site web
