This Privacy Policy explains how APTV handles information when you use the APTV mobile application.
- Overview
APTV is an IPTV and video player app. The App lets you add playlist sources, play video streams, import local videos, use a web browser, and manage playback settings. The App is designed to keep your personal media library and app settings on your device unless a feature requires a third-party service, such as Apple In-App Purchase, Adapty, or Firebase Remote Config.
We do not sell your personal information. We do not use third-party advertising SDKs.
2. Information You Provide or Add to the App
Depending on how you use APTV, the App may store the following information on your device:
- Playlist source names, playlist URLs, XMLTV guide URLs, request headers, bookmarks, favorites, recently played items, playback settings, appearance settings, and other library configuration.
- Xtream connection details, including server URL, username, and password. Passwords are stored in the iOS Keychain when saved by the App.
- Local video files imported from Files or Photos. These files are copied into the App's managed local storage so they can be played later.
- Browser bookmarks and browsing state created inside the App.
This information is used to provide the App's playback, library, import, and settings features.
3. Photos, Files, Local Network, and Clipboard
The App may ask you to select videos or playlist files from Files or Photos. APTV only receives the items you choose through the system picker. The App does not request access to your full photo library.
The App may access the local network when connecting to IPTV servers, local media sources, or AirPlay-compatible devices. iOS may display a local network permission prompt.
If you use the Paste button, the App reads text from the system clipboard to help you enter a video or playlist URL.
Purchases and Subscriptions
APTV may offer optional premium features through auto-renewable subscriptions or other in-app purchases. Purchases are processed by Apple through the App Store.
We use Adapty to help load paywalls, manage subscription products, process purchase and restore flows, and determine whether premium access is active. Adapty and Apple may process purchase-related information such as product identifiers, subscription status, transaction status, App Store receipt information, device or installation identifiers, and diagnostics needed to provide these services.
We do not receive or store your full payment card number.
4. Firebase Remote Config
The App uses Firebase Remote Config to receive remote configuration values, such as paywall and onboarding settings. Firebase may process technical information such as app instance identifiers, device and app information, IP address, and diagnostic information needed to deliver and protect the service.
5. Third-Party Websites and Streams
APTV can open websites in its built-in browser and play streams or files from URLs that you enter or import. These websites, playlist providers, IPTV providers, video hosts, and stream servers are not operated by us. Their own privacy policies and data practices apply when you access their content.
6. Public Catalog and User Content
The App may include a public channel catalog for convenience. We do not host or control the third-party streams referenced by that catalog. If you add your own sources, you are responsible for the URLs, credentials, and content you choose to use with the App.
7. Data Sharing
We may share information only in the following limited circumstances:
- With service providers used to operate the App, such as Apple, Adapty, and Firebase.
- When required by law, legal process, or to protect rights, safety, and security.
- In connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets, if applicable.
We do not sell personal information.
8. Data Retention and Deletion
Most App data is stored locally on your device and remains there until you delete it in the App or remove the App from your device. You can delete sources, local videos, bookmarks, favorites, and other items from the App where those features are available.
Purchase records are managed by Apple and may be retained according to Apple's policies. Subscription entitlement and paywall information processed by Adapty or Firebase may be retained according to their service policies and our configuration.
To request help with privacy questions or deletion requests, contact us at [Support email address].
9. Security
We use reasonable technical measures to protect information handled by the App. For example, saved Xtream passwords are stored in the iOS Keychain. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.
10. Children
APTV is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the App, contact us at Claytonwullems675@icloud.com.
11. International Use
Your information may be processed in countries other than the country where you live. These countries may have different data protection laws. By using the App, you understand that information may be processed where our service providers operate.
12. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date and may provide additional notice where appropriate.
