IPTViewer ("the App") is developed by MA Soft. This policy explains what data the App accesses, how it is used, and your choices.
1. Data We Collect
IPTViewer does not collect, store, or transmit any personal information. We do not require account creation or login.
2. IPTV Playlists
The App loads IPTV channel playlists (M3U/M3U8 files) from URLs you provide. Playlist URLs and their contents are:
- Fetched directly from the URL you enter
- Cached locally on your device for faster loading
- Never sent to our servers or any third party
You are responsible for ensuring you have the right to access the playlists you load.
3. Third-Party Services
The App uses the following third-party services, each with their own privacy policies:
- Google AdMob — Displays advertisements. AdMob may collect device identifiers and usage data as described in Google's Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
- Google Play Billing — Processes in-app purchases for premium features. Handled entirely by Google Play. Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
- Grafana Faro — Anonymous usage analytics. Collects non-personal event data (e.g., channel plays, feature usage, error occurrences) to help improve the App. No personal information, channel names, or playlist URLs are transmitted. Environment (debug/production) is the only metadata included. Privacy Policy: https://grafana.com/legal/privacy-policy/
- EPG Providers — Electronic Program Guide data is fetched from publicly available EPG sources based on your playlist's configuration. Only channel identifiers (tvg-id) are used for matching.
4. Local Storage
The App stores the following data locally on your device only:
- Loaded playlist and channel data
- Favorite channels
- Disabled sources
- Selected categories
- EPG (program guide) cache
- App settings (theme, PIP, background playback, mute preferences)
- Sleep timer configuration
This data never leaves your device and can be cleared by clearing the App's data or uninstalling it.
5. Permissions
- Internet — Required to load IPTV playlists, stream channels, fetch EPG data, and display ads
- Foreground Service — Used to continue audio playback when the screen is off or the app is in the background
- Wake Lock — Keeps the device awake during playback to prevent audio interruption
6. Children's Privacy
The App is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The updated version will be indicated by the "Last updated" date at the top.
