PRIVACY POLICY
TELECAR
Effective date: November 10, 2026
Telecar ("Telecar", "the App", "we", "us") is a media player application with turn-by-turn navigation. This Privacy Policy explains what information the App handles, why, and how. Telecar was previously published as "RemTV - Smart Player".
1. WHAT TELECAR IS
Telecar is a neutral player for M3U/M3U8 playlists and video files, with a built-in browser and navigation. Telecar does not provide, host, sell, or distribute television channels, subscriptions to content, or media of any kind. Users add only playlists and files they already have the right to use.
Telecar is an independent app and is not affiliated with any TV service, operator, car maker, or content provider.
2. NO ACCOUNT REQUIRED
Telecar does not require you to create an account, sign in, or provide your name, email address, or other identity information.
3. INFORMATION WE DO NOT COLLECT
We do not operate servers that receive data from the App. We do not collect, store, or receive:
- Your name, email address, or contact details
- Your contacts, photos, camera, or microphone
- Your playlists, viewing history, favorites, or the sites you open
- Your precise location
4. ADVERTISING
The free version of Telecar shows ads provided by Google AdMob. To deliver and measure ads, Google's advertising software in the App may collect and process:
- Device identifiers, including the advertising identifier (IDFA), if you allow tracking
- Your IP address, which may be used to estimate your approximate location
- Information about ads shown and your interaction with them
- Diagnostic information such as crash and performance data
This information is collected by Google, not by us, and is handled under Google's Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy. More about how Google uses data from apps: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
Ads are not shown to Telecar Pro subscribers.
5. TRACKING AND YOUR CHOICES
When you first use the App, iOS asks whether you allow Telecar to track your activity across other companies' apps and websites. If you allow it, your advertising identifier may be used to show you more relevant ads. If you decline, ads are still shown but are not personalized using that identifier.
You can change this choice at any time in iOS Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking.
In the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, the App also shows a consent message before ads are requested. You can review your choice by reinstalling the App or through your device's privacy settings.
6. LOCATION AND NAVIGATION
If you grant location permission, Telecar uses your location on your device to show your position on the map and to guide you along a route. Your location is not sent to us.
Place search and route calculation are provided by Apple Maps services. Requests to those services are handled by Apple under Apple's Privacy Policy: https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/
You can withdraw location permission at any time in iOS Settings.
7. SUBSCRIPTIONS
Telecar Pro is an optional auto-renewable subscription purchased through the App Store. Payments are processed by Apple. We do not receive or store your payment details. The App only learns from Apple whether a subscription is active on your device.
8. PLAYLIST AND STREAM DATA
When you add a playlist, its full address (which may include access tokens or credentials in the URL) and the resulting stream addresses are:
- Stored only on your device, encrypted (using the device Keychain and on-device encryption)
- Never transmitted to us
Only the host name and a partially masked path of a playlist address are displayed in the App's interface, for your reference.
9. VIDEO FILES YOU IMPORT
When you choose a video file from the Files app, Telecar makes a copy of that file in its own storage on your device so it can be played later. The copy never leaves your device. It is removed when you delete the item in the App or uninstall the App. Telecar does not access your Photos library.
10. BUILT-IN BROWSER (DISCOVER)
The Discover section opens websites you choose. Your list of sites, and any cookies or site data created while browsing, are stored only on your device. We do not receive your browsing activity.
Websites you open may collect information according to their own privacy policies, as in any web browser.
11. CAR DISPLAY
When your iPhone is connected to a compatible car display, Telecar shows its navigation, library, and browser there. No additional information is collected or sent to us for this feature.
12. NETWORK CONNECTIONS
Besides advertising and Apple Maps services described above, Telecar connects to the internet only to do what you ask:
