Privacy Policy
Last Revised: 2026-03-03
Applies to: VxPlayer ("App", "we", "us", "our")
This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use the App. By using the App, you agree to this Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the App.
1. Scope
This Policy applies to our Android mobile application and its in-app features.
2. What Information We Collect
- Local media info (processed on device only): With your permission, the App reads video metadata on your device (e.g., file name, duration, size, folder path, thumbnail frame) to display and play your videos. This information is not uploaded.
- Playback history and preferences (stored on device): To provide "Continue Playing" and related features, we store the last played video ID/URI/name and playback progress in SharedPreferences on your device.
- Temporary files (stored on device): For certain content URIs, the App may copy the video temporarily to the app cache to enable decoding/playback. These files are removed after playback, cache clearing, or by the system.
- Optional user messages: If you contact us (e.g., email), we will process the information you provide to address your inquiry.
We do not knowingly collect sensitive categories of data.
3. How We Use Information
- Media browsing and playback: Display folders/videos, generate thumbnails, search, play, Picture-in-Picture, and resume playback.
- File operations you request: Delete selected videos after your confirmation and notify the system media library.
- Stability and diagnostics: Basic local logs may be recorded for troubleshooting; these are not uploaded.
4. Data Sharing and Third Parties
- We do not collect or sell your personal data.
5. Permissions We Request (Android)
- READ_MEDIA_VIDEO (or system-equivalent on older Android): To access your local videos for listing and playback.
- Picture-in-Picture: To let the video continue in a small window when you switch apps.
Notes:
- Permissions are requested only when needed. Without permission, the related features are unavailable.
6. Data Storage, Retention, and Deletion
- Location: Data is stored only on your device (SharedPreferences and app cache).
- Retention: Playback history/preferences persist until you clear them or uninstall the App. Temporary cache files are removed after playback, cache clearing, or by the system.
- Your control:
- In-App: Settings → Clear Cache
- System: App Info → Clear storage/data, or uninstall to remove all app data
7. Children’s Privacy
The App is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child provided personal data, contact us to delete it.
8. Security
Data is processed and stored locally on your device. Android’s sandbox and permission model help protect your data. No method is 100% secure; protect your device and permissions.
9. International Transfers
We do not transfer your data internationally because we do not upload your data to our servers.
10. Your Rights and Choices
- You can deny permissions; the App will not access related data.
- You can clear playback history and cache in the App or via system settings.
- If you contact us about your data in messages you sent to us, we will assist as applicable.
11. Links to Other Sites/Apps
If the App opens or links to third-party content or websites, their privacy practices are governed by their own policies.
12. Google Play "Data Safety" Disclosure (Summary)
- Data collection: We do not collect personal data to our servers.
- Data sharing: We do not share your data with third parties.
- Data processed: Local, on-device processing of your media metadata and playback history.

13. Changes to this Policy
We may update this Policy from time to time. Updates will be available in the App or its listing with an updated "Last Revised" date. Continued use after updates means you accept the revised Policy.
