Runs in your browser. Your files are not uploaded.
Large videos can run out of memory on phones.
Changing the picture uses your browser's own video encoders. Recent Chrome and Edge can write H.264, VP9 and AV1; Firefox and older Safari lack some encoders, so the tools offer only what your browser can produce and say so when something is missing.

How to use Compress video
Choose a video or drop it on the page.
Pick Quality preset (High quality, Balanced or Small file) or Target file size and enter the size in MB.
Optionally set Largest size to 1080p, 720p, 480p or 360p, which makes files much smaller.
Select Compress video, then download the result.
Questions
Use Target file size and enter the limit in megabytes. You can also lower the Largest size, since a smaller picture makes a much smaller file.

No. Everything runs in your browser on your own device, and the video is never uploaded.
