Privacy Policy for TV Remote & Cast

This Privacy Policy explains how TV Remote & Cast ("the App", "we", "our", or "us") collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our application.

By using the App, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

Information We Collect

1. Information You Provide

The App does not require you to create an account.

We do not collect:

unless you voluntarily contact us for support.

The App may access limited device information necessary to operate, including:

This information is stored locally on your device and is not transmitted to our servers.

4. App Preferences

The App stores preferences locally, including:

• Vibration settings

• Saved televisions

These settings remain on your device.

Network Permissions

The App requires network permissions to:

• Discover compatible Google TV and Android TV devices

• Pair with televisions

• Send remote control commands

• Cast supported media to compatible televisions

The App communicates only with devices available on your local Wi-Fi network.

Nearby Devices Permission

On supported Android versions, the App requests the Nearby Wi-Fi Devices permission to discover compatible televisions.

This permission is used exclusively for TV discovery and is not used to determine your physical location.

Advertising

The App may display advertisements provided by third-party advertising partners.

These partners may collect limited information such as:

• Advertising identifiers

• Device information

• Approximate location (if permitted by your device settings)

• App interaction data

This information helps deliver and measure advertisements.

Please refer to the privacy policies of our advertising partners for more information.

Analytics

The App may collect anonymous usage statistics to improve performance and reliability.

Examples include:

• Feature usage

• Crash reports

• Performance metrics

• Session duration

Analytics data does not identify you personally.

Data Storage

Most application data is stored locally on your device, including:

• Saved TVs

• Preferences

• Remote settings

We do not maintain a cloud database containing your paired televisions.

Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share limited information only when necessary with trusted third-party service providers that help operate the App, including:

• Advertising providers

• Analytics providers

• Crash reporting services

These providers process data under their own privacy policies.

Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect information processed by the App.

Communication between your device and compatible televisions uses encrypted network connections where supported by the TV platform.

However, no method of electronic storage or transmission is completely secure.

Children's Privacy

The App is intended for general audiences.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us so appropriate action can be taken.

Third-Party Services

Depending on your device and configuration, the App may interact with third-party services including:

• Google Play Services

Use of these services is governed by their respective privacy policies.

Your Rights

Depending on your country or region, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including:

• Access your information

• Request deletion of information

• Object to certain processing

• Request correction of information

Because most App data is stored locally on your device, you can remove it by clearing the App's storage or uninstalling the App.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time.

Any changes will be posted within the App or on our website, and the "Last Updated" date will be revised.
