Effective Date: October 30, 2025

This Privacy Policy describes how Md. Mehedi Hasan Rabbani (under the developer brand "Soiad Mahedi"), the developer of SUic Player ("we," "us," or "our"), handles your information when you use our mobile application ("App" or "Service").

Your privacy is important to us. SUic Player is designed to be a local media player, and we are committed to not collecting or sharing your personal media files.

1. Information We Access (But Do Not Collect)

The core function of SUic Player is to play your local media files. To do this, the App requires your permission to access your device's storage.

• Local Media Files (Video, Audio, Subtitles): The App needs the MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE (All Files Access) permission to find, display, manage (rename, delete), and play your media files. Your personal media files are processed locally on your device and are never collected, uploaded, or shared with us or any third party.

• Network Stream URLs: If you use the "Stream" feature, the App uses the URL you provide to connect to and play the stream. If you use the "Save in List Record" feature, these URLs are saved locally on your device for your convenience. This data is not transmitted to us.

2. Information We Collect Automatically

To maintain and improve the App, we use third-party services that may collect information.

• Analytics & Crash Reporting (Firebase): We use Firebase Analytics and Firebase Crashlytics to understand how users interact with our App and to identify and fix crashes. This service may collect anonymous data such as:

  • Device type and operating system

  • App version

  • General usage patterns (e.g., which features are used)

  • Crash logs and diagnostic information

This data is aggregated and anonymous and is used only to improve the stability and performance of the App.

• Advertising (Google AdMob): SUic Player is supported by ads, which are provided by Google AdMob. AdMob may collect information to serve personalized or non-personalized ads. This may include:

  • Device's Advertising ID (AD_ID)

  • IP address

  • Device information (e.g., model, OS)

  • General location information

For more information on how Google handles your data, please review Google's Privacy & Terms.

• Remote Configuration (Firebase Realtime Database): We use Firebase Realtime Database to remotely check for app updates and to enable or disable certain app features. This service does not collect personal information from your device; it only fetches configuration settings.

3. Third-Party Service Providers

We use the following third-party services, which have their own privacy policies:

• Google Play Services

• Google AdMob

4. Permissions Explained

SUic Player requests the following permissions to provide its features:

• MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE / READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE / WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: To find, play, rename, and delete your local media files and folders. This is the App's primary function.

• INTERNET & ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE: To play network streams (DASH, HLS, etc.), fetch advertisements, and check for app updates.

• POST_NOTIFICATIONS & FOREGROUND_SERVICE_MEDIA_PLAYBACK: To show media playback controls in the notification bar and allow audio to play in the background.

• com.google.android.gms.permission.AD_ID: To allow Google AdMob to serve relevant advertisements.

5. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect the information that is collected by our third-party services. However, please remember that no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure.

6. Children’s Privacy

Our Service is suitable for users of all ages. However, we are committed to protecting the privacy of children. We do not knowingly collect or store any personally identifiable information from children under the age of 16 (or the minimum age required by local law).

Parents and guardians are encouraged to monitor their children's use of the app. If you believe that your child has provided any personal information to us without your consent, please contact us at [your support email], and we will promptly delete such information from our records.

We do not send any promotional or marketing materials to minors.

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
