The CiteIt.net web service looks up the context of a cited quote and saves the 500 characters of context from both "documents", along with the parallel quotes from each document.
This data is created when an author looks up citations within their own document.
If the author cites a YouTube video, the system looks up the YouTube Transcript and saves the 500 characters before and after the quote, as well as the time offsets of each transcript line.
The website uses Google Analytics to observe web traffic but the webservice does not collect user data.
