Where processing happens

A PromoStar worker on PromoStar’s own server runs the profile lookup and the import. It reaches RedGifs through anonymous public access, so PromoStar does not ask for your RedGifs password. The profile lookup fetches only your profile details. The import downloads each public video, makes a thumbnail, and stores copies on PromoStar’s CDN.
