TV Remote UC ("the app", "we", "our") is a remote control app for iPhone and iPad, developed by Kiran Gajjar, that controls smart TVs over your own Wi‑Fi network. This policy explains what information the app handles and — more importantly — what it does not.
TV Remote UC collects no personal data. There are no accounts, no analytics, no advertising, no tracking, and no servers of ours involved. Every command the app sends travels directly from your device to your TV over your local Wi‑Fi network and never leaves it.
We do not collect, store, transmit, sell, or share any of the following: your name, email address, or any account information (the app has no sign-up); your location; your usage or behavioral analytics; advertising identifiers; the names of the TVs on your network or what you watch; the text you type through the app's keyboard feature; or any device identifiers. The app contains no third-party analytics SDKs, no advertising SDKs, and no tracking technologies of any kind.
Our App Store privacy label is "Data Not Collected", and this policy is the long-form confirmation of it.
To function as a remote, the app stores a small amount of data locally on your iPhone or iPad, and nowhere else:
Paired TV details — the name, local IP address, and connection type of TVs you add, so the app can reconnect to them.
Pairing credentials — the token, client key, or pairing certificate a TV issues after you approve the connection (for example after you enter the code shown on your TV). These credentials are issued by your TV and are only meaningful on your own network.
App preferences — settings such as haptic feedback, keep-screen-awake, and your accent color.
This data never leaves your device. You can remove a paired TV at any time in the app (Settings → touch and hold the TV → Remove). Deleting the app deletes all of this data.
The app asks for one iOS permission: Local Network. It uses this permission only to find TVs on your Wi‑Fi network and to send them the commands you tap. You can turn this permission off at any time in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Local Network; the app then can't reach your TV, but the built-in Demo TV still works. The app makes no connections to the internet: it does not talk to our servers (we operate none), and it does not send data to third parties.
The app does not send notifications and does not ask for notification permission. No push-notification service is used.
The app may occasionally invite you to rate it using Apple's standard in-app rating prompt. That prompt is provided and handled entirely by Apple; we receive no personal information from it.
The app does not collect personal information from anyone, including children. It contains no ads, no external links to purchase content, and no social features.
The app includes the open-source AndroidTVRemoteControl library (MIT License) to implement a TV pairing and control protocol. This library runs entirely on your device and performs no data collection. The control interfaces the app uses are provided by the TVs themselves on your local network; no third-party service sits in between.
When you control a TV, your TV itself may process the commands it receives according to its manufacturer's own privacy policy. That processing happens on the TV and is outside our control; please refer to your TV manufacturer's policy for details.
If we ever change how the app handles data, we will update this policy and revise the date at the top before the change takes effect. Because the app's design is local-only, we expect changes to be rare.
