rolka.lol processes only the data needed to resolve a public Reel.
The pasted link stays in your browser
Your browser reads the link, validates its host and path, and extracts the shortcode. Parameters such as igsh, UTM, and fragments are not sent to our API.
What reaches the API
Only the public Reel shortcode. We do not create user accounts or a media archive. We collect limited technical and usage data for analytics and retain it for no longer than 7 days.
Instagram and its CDN
The API requests the public Instagram page. By default, your browser opens media directly from Instagram's CDN, so Instagram/CDN receives ordinary network data for that connection. In Safari on iPhone/iPad, after you choose to prepare a file and only when the CDN blocks direct saving, rolka.lol may stream the video through its API without storing or archiving it. rolka.lol is not an anonymizing service.
Technical logs
We keep limited telemetry for analytics. We do not retain raw pasted links, their tracking parameters, cookies, or signed CDN addresses.
