⚙️ How it works

The Actor fetches each channel's public /about page (the same HTML your browser gets when logged out) and parses the embedded ytInitialData. Everything — email, stats, links, recent videos — comes from that single request. No headless browser, so it's fast and cheap.

Email coverage: ~20-40% of channels publish an email directly in their About text — those are extracted here. Emails hidden behind YouTube's "View email address" button (which requires a logged-in Google account + CAPTCHA) are not extracted by this Actor.

❓ FAQ

Do I need a Google login or API key? No. Only public logged-out data.

Will it get every channel's email? No — only channels that publish an email in their public About text. Channels that hide it behind the CAPTCHA-gated "View email address" button are not covered.

Does it scrape private data? No. Only publicly visible information.

How fast is it? Roughly 5 channels/sec per run on default settings; ~1000 channels in a few minutes.

⚖️ Legal, Compliance & Acceptable Use

Please read this section carefully. By running this Actor you accept these terms.

Bottom line: this is a neutral, general-purpose software tool. It only retrieves information that is already publicly available. You — the user — decide what to search for and how to use the results, so you alone are responsible and liable for that use. The developer/operator of this Actor merely provides the tool and does not control, endorse, or take responsibility for what you do with it.

1. Public data only. The Actor accesses only publicly available information. It does not log in on your behalf, bypass access controls, or retrieve private, paywalled, or password-protected data.

2. You are the responsible party (data controller). For every run you start, you act as the data controller and are solely responsible for using the output lawfully. This includes having a valid lawful basis (for business/B2B use this is typically legitimate interest), honoring data-subject rights (access, correction, deletion, opt-out), and complying with all applicable laws and regulations — including, where relevant, the GDPR, UK GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, and similar privacy, marketing, and anti-spam laws (e.g. ePrivacy, CAN-SPAM, CASL, TCPA).

3. Not a Consumer Reporting Agency. This Actor and its operator are not a consumer reporting agency (CRA), and the output is not a "consumer report" under the U.S. Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) or similar laws. You must NOT use it, in whole or in part, to decide a person's eligibility for credit, employment, housing/tenancy, insurance, or any other FCRA-regulated purpose.

4. Respect third-party terms. You are responsible for complying with the terms of service of any website or platform whose public data you choose to process, and with any applicable intellectual-property rights.

5. No warranty. The Actor is provided "as is", without warranty of any kind. Public data may be incomplete, outdated, or inaccurate — verify independently before relying on it. Availability of sources and fields can change at any time.

6. Prohibited use. Do not use this Actor or its output for stalking, harassment, discrimination, fraud, spam, or any unlawful or harmful purpose.

7. Indemnification. You assume all risk and liability arising from your use of this Actor, and you agree to defend, indemnify and hold the operator harmless from any and all claims, losses, fines, or liabilities — including reasonable legal fees — resulting from your use or misuse of the Actor or its output, or from your breach of these terms or of any law.

This section is general information, not legal advice. If you are unsure whether your intended use is permitted, consult your own legal counsel before running this Actor.
