TV Remote Control: Universal

Introduction

TV Remote Control: Universal (“the app”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) is operated by Infinite Swipe Labs.

We respect your privacy and aim to keep the app simple, transparent, and secure.

The app allows users to discover, pair with, save, and control supported Smart TVs over a local Wi-Fi network.

The current version supports compatible:

• Android TV / Google TV devices

• Samsung Tizen TVs

• LG webOS TVs

This Privacy Policy explains what information may be processed or stored when you use the app.

1. Information Stored Locally on Your Device

The app may store a limited amount of information locally on your Android device so that it can remember your preferences and previously paired TVs.

This may include:

• App theme preference

• Haptic feedback preference

• Keep-screen-awake preference

• Onboarding status

• Previously paired TVs

• TV name

• TV platform

• TV network address

• Pairing information required to reconnect to a TV

• Selected remote mode

• Other basic settings required for app functionality

This information is primarily stored within the app's private storage on your device.

It is not intended to be used to identify you personally.

Local information generally remains on your device until:

• You remove or forget a paired TV

• You change or reset the applicable preference

• You clear the app's storage through Android settings

• You uninstall the app

2. Local Network Access

The app uses your local Wi-Fi network to discover and communicate with supported Smart TVs.

For the app to work, your phone and TV generally need to be connected to the same local network.

During TV discovery and communication, the app may process information such as:

• Local IP addresses

• Network ports

• TV names

• TV platform or manufacturer information

• Local device identifiers exposed by the TV

• TV discovery information

• Connection status

This information is used to:

• Find compatible TVs

• Display available TVs

• Establish a connection

• Pair your phone with your TV

• Send remote-control commands

• Reconnect to previously paired TVs

This network information is used for local TV remote functionality and is not intended to determine your physical location.

3. TV Discovery

The app uses supported local-network discovery technologies to locate compatible Smart TVs.

Depending on the TV platform, this may include technologies such as:

• Local network service discovery

• SSDP

• mDNS / NSD

• Manufacturer-specific local discovery mechanisms

Discovery occurs on the user's local network.

The app may temporarily process information broadcast by compatible devices so that those TVs can be shown in the Add TV screen.

Discovery information may include:

• TV name

• Local IP address

• Supported service information

• Device identifiers

• TV platform

• Manufacturer information

The app does not use TV discovery to scan the public internet for devices.

4. Pairing With Your TV

Some supported TVs require approval or pairing before the app can control them.

The exact pairing process depends on the TV platform.

For example, the TV may:

• Display a pairing code

• Ask you to approve a connection request

• Generate an authorization token

• Generate another credential used to reconnect securely

The app may locally store pairing credentials necessary for future connections.

These credentials are used only to communicate with the TV with which they were created.

5. Android TV / Google TV Pairing Information

When pairing with a supported Android TV or Google TV device, the app may locally process and store information required to establish a trusted connection.

This may include:

• TV identity information

• Pairing information

• Certificate information

• Security information required to verify future connections

The app uses this information so that previously paired TVs can reconnect without requiring a new pairing process every time.

Sensitive connection information is stored using security mechanisms available on Android where appropriate.

6. Samsung TV Pairing Information

When pairing with a supported Samsung Tizen TV, the TV may provide an authorization token.

The app may locally store information such as:

• Samsung TV identity

• Authorization token

• Connection information

• Security information used to recognize the previously paired TV

This information is used only for connecting to and controlling the associated Samsung TV.

Samsung pairing credentials are stored using protected app storage and Android security mechanisms where applicable.

7. LG TV Pairing Information

When pairing with a supported LG webOS TV, the TV may provide a client key or similar authorization information.

The app may locally store information such as:

• LG TV identity

• Client key

• Connection information

• Security information required for reconnection

• Network information used for supported TV wake functionality

This information allows the app to reconnect to a previously paired LG TV without requiring approval every time.

8. Wake-on-LAN Information

For compatible TVs, the app may attempt to wake a previously paired TV over the local network.

Where supported, this may require storing a TV's network hardware address, commonly known as a MAC address.

A stored TV MAC address may be used only for functionality such as sending a local Wake-on-LAN request.

Wake-on-LAN:

• Operates on the local network

• Is not supported by every TV

• May depend on the TV model and TV settings

• May require the television's network standby functionality to remain enabled

The app does not use TV MAC addresses for advertising, tracking, or building user profiles.

9. Remote-Control Commands

When you press a remote button, the app sends the corresponding command to the connected TV over the local network.

Commands may include:

• Power

• Volume up

• Volume down

• Mute

• Directional navigation

• OK / Select

• Back

• Home

• Channel controls

• Input / Source

• Media controls

• Touchpad navigation

These commands are processed for the purpose of controlling the selected television.

The app does not intentionally transmit your remote-control activity to Infinite Swipe Labs.

10. Saved TVs

You may save paired TVs so that you can reconnect more easily later.

Saved TV information may include:

• TV name

• TV platform

• Device identity

• Last known local network address

• Pairing credentials

• Connection metadata

Saved TV information is stored locally within the app.

If you choose Forget TV, the app removes the saved information associated with that TV where applicable.

11. App Preferences

The app may store preferences including:

• System Default, Light, or Dark theme

• Haptic feedback preference

• Keep Screen Awake preference

• Previously selected remote mode

• Onboarding completion status

These preferences may be stored using Android app-storage technologies such as Preferences DataStore.

They are used only to provide the selected app experience.

12. Personal Information

The current version of TV Remote Control: Universal does not require you to create an account.

The app is not designed to request personal information such as:

• Your name

• Phone number

• Home address

• Contact list

• Photos

• Videos

• Personal documents

• Financial information

• Passwords

The core remote-control functionality does not require an Infinite Swipe Labs account.

13. Contact Us and Email

The app includes a Contact Us option.

When you use this feature, the app may open Gmail or another compatible email application with the following information pre-filled:

Recipient: infiniteswipelabs@gmail.com

Subject: Universal TV Remote - Support Query

The app does not automatically send an email.

You decide:

• Whether to send the email

• What information to include

• Whether to attach anything

Any information you voluntarily send to us by email may be processed for the purpose of:

• Responding to your question

• Providing support

• Investigating a reported problem

• Improving the app based on feedback

Your email provider may process email-related information according to its own privacy policy.

14. Advertising

The current version of TV Remote Control: Universal does not display advertisements.

The app does not currently use:

• Google AdMob

• Banner advertisements

• Interstitial advertisements

• Rewarded advertisements

• App-open advertisements

• Native advertisements

We do not currently use advertising SDKs to serve personalized or non-personalized advertisements inside the app.

Because advertisements are not currently shown, the app does not intentionally collect information for the purpose of advertising or ad personalization.

If advertising is introduced in a future version, this Privacy Policy will be updated as appropriate before or alongside that change.

15. Advertising ID

The current version of the app does not require the Android Advertising ID for advertising purposes.

We do not currently use the Advertising ID to:

• Serve ads

• Personalize advertisements

• Create advertising profiles

• Track users across apps for advertising

If this changes in a future version, this Privacy Policy and applicable Google Play declarations will be updated accordingly.

16. Analytics and Tracking

The current version of the app is not designed to create advertising profiles or track users across unrelated applications or websites.

Local TV discovery, pairing, saved-TV information, and remote-control activity are used to provide the app's functionality.

We do not sell remote usage information or use it to create advertising profiles.

If analytics or other data-processing services are introduced in a future version, this Privacy Policy will be updated to explain the applicable practices.

17. Location

The app does not require your precise GPS location in order to function as a TV remote.

Local network information may reveal technical information about devices connected to the same network, but the app does not use this information to determine your precise physical location.

We do not intentionally collect precise GPS coordinates for TV remote functionality.

18. Photos, Files, Contacts and Messages

The TV remote functionality is not intended to require access to your:

• Photos

• Videos

• Personal documents

• Contact list

• SMS messages

• Call history

• Calendar

• Personal media library

The app does not intentionally collect such content for normal remote-control functionality.

19. Microphone and Camera

The current remote-control functionality does not require Infinite Swipe Labs to record audio or capture images through your device's microphone or camera.

The app does not intentionally collect:

• Voice recordings

• Conversations

• Camera images

• Camera video

• Ambient audio

for its core TV remote functionality.

20. Data Sharing

We do not sell or rent your personal information.

We do not sell information about:

• Your paired TVs

• Remote-control activity

• TV network information

• Pairing credentials

• App preferences

Locally stored information is not intentionally shared with other users of the app.

Information may be disclosed where required by applicable law, including where reasonably necessary to:

• Respond to a valid legal request

• Protect users or our legal rights

• Investigate fraud, abuse, or security concerns

• Comply with applicable legal obligations

21. Android and Third-Party Services

The app relies on Android operating-system functionality for features such as:

• Wi-Fi and network communication

• Local device discovery

• Secure credential storage

• App lifecycle management

• Haptic feedback

• System theme detection

• Local preference storage

• Opening an email application

Google Play and the Android operating system may independently process certain technical information according to their own terms and privacy policies.

Use of Android functionality does not mean that Infinite Swipe Labs automatically receives all information processed internally by Android or Google Play.

22. TV Manufacturer Services

The app communicates locally with supported televisions using functionality provided by or available on those TVs.

Supported platforms currently include compatible:

• Android TV / Google TV

• Samsung Tizen

• LG webOS

TV manufacturers may independently process information through the television, its operating system, or services associated with the user's TV account.

Those practices are governed by the relevant manufacturer's own privacy policies.

Infinite Swipe Labs does not control those third-party privacy practices.

23. Security

We take reasonable measures to limit data handling to information required for the app to function.

Depending on the TV platform, sensitive pairing information may be protected using:

• Android private app storage

• Android Keystore

• Encryption

• Secure transport mechanisms

• Certificate or device verification mechanisms

These protections are intended to reduce unauthorized access to stored TV pairing information.

However, no software, network, device, encryption method, or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

You are responsible for maintaining the security of your device, Wi-Fi network, television, and associated accounts.

24. Data Retention

Information stored locally may remain on your device until:

• You forget the associated TV

• You change or reset a preference

• You clear the application's storage

• The information is replaced during normal app operation

• You uninstall the app

Uninstalling the app normally removes its locally stored application data from that device.

Information voluntarily sent to Infinite Swipe Labs by email may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to your inquiry, provide support, maintain relevant records, or comply with applicable legal requirements.

25. Children's Privacy

TV Remote Control: Universal is a general-purpose utility application and is not specifically designed to collect personal information from children.

The core TV remote functionality does not require users to create an account or provide personal information to Infinite Swipe Labs.

We do not knowingly seek to collect personal information from children through the app's core remote-control functionality.

If you believe that a child has provided personal information to us inappropriately, contact:

infiniteswipelabs@gmail.com

and we will review the request.
