Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 27, 2026

UltraPlayer respects your privacy. All media playback and file browsing happens entirely on your device. The app is free and supported by ads served through Google AdMob. We collect anonymous crash reports and usage analytics to improve the app.

1. Information We Collect

UltraPlayer collects minimal data to keep the app free, stable, and improving:

• Advertising: The app shows ads via Google AdMob. To serve and measure ads, Google may collect your device's advertising identifier (Advertising ID) and related ad-interaction data. In the EEA/UK and applicable regions, ads are only requested after you make a choice in the consent dialog shown on launch.

• Crash reports: When the app crashes, an anonymous crash report is sent via Firebase Crashlytics. This includes the stack trace, device model, and Android version. No personal data or media file information is included.

• Usage analytics: Anonymous usage events (e.g., which features are used, playback format statistics) are collected via Firebase Analytics. No personally identifiable information is collected.

Crash reporting is automatically disabled in debug builds. You can change your ads-consent choice anytime from Settings → Ad privacy options (where applicable).

2. Information We Do Not Collect

UltraPlayer does not collect, store, or transmit:

• Personal information (name, email, phone number, or account details)

• Media file names, content, or metadata to any server

• Location data

• Browsing or playback history to any server

3. Data Stored Locally on Your Device

The following data is stored locally and never leaves your device:

• Media library index: File names, paths, duration, and metadata for browsing and search.

• Playback history: Last played position and play count for resume functionality.

• Playlists, bookmarks, and favorites.

• App preferences: Theme, equalizer presets, and settings.

• Network server credentials: SMB/SFTP connection details you configure are stored in the app's private storage.

You can clear all local data by clearing the app's data in your device Settings or by uninstalling the app.

4. Permissions

• Storage access: To discover and play media files on your device.

• Internet access: For streaming, network shares (SMB/SFTP), Chromecast, ML Kit translation model downloads, advertising, crash reporting, and analytics.

• Advertising ID: Used by Google AdMob to serve and measure ads.

• Foreground service: For background audio/video playback.

• Notifications: For playback controls in the notification area.

• Wake lock: To keep the screen active during playback.

5. Third-Party Services

• Google AdMob: Serves the ads that keep the app free. Subject to Google's Privacy Policy. See how Google uses data.
