This Privacy Policy applies specifically to StreamEasy for Google TV / Android TV (free edition), published on Google Play by the StreamEasy team (the “Developer”, “we”, “us”). Separate policies exist for the TV Pro, mobile free and mobile Pro editions.
1. What this edition is
This is the free, ad-supported edition of StreamEasy for Google TV and Android TV. No advertising SDK is initialized in this edition today: Google AdMob does not currently serve advertising inventory on the TV form factor, so no ads are shown and no advertising-tracking data leaves the device. If a Google Ad Manager network is wired in later, this Policy will be updated and the change announced in the App's release notes.
2. Information stored on your device
To do its job, the App stores the following entirely on the device:
- IPTV server profiles. Server URL, username and password for any Xtream Codes–compatible service. Stored with Android
EncryptedSharedPreferences(AES-256 / Android Keystore). - Playback state. Watch history, favourites and resume positions, in a local Room database.
- User preferences. UI language, selected profile, accent colour, sort options and other in-app settings, in Android DataStore.
- Catalogue cache (transient). A short-lived in-memory copy of your IPTV catalogue, cleared when the App is closed.
The Developer does not have access to any of the above. None of it leaves your device through the App, except as described in section 3.
3. Information sent to third parties
Only one third party receives data through this edition:
Your IPTV provider. Every request to load a channel, movie, series or episode is sent directly from your device to the URL of the server you configured. The IPTV provider you chose will receive your credentials and stream requests according to their privacy policy. They — not the Developer — are the data controller for whatever they receive from you.
4. What we do not do
- We do not maintain any backend server that receives your data.
- We do not collect analytics events about how you use the App.
- We do not collect crash reports through a third-party service.
- We do not include Firebase, Facebook SDK, AppsFlyer, Adjust, Branch or any other tracking / attribution SDK.
- We do not include any advertising SDK in this edition today.
- We do not sell, rent or share information with data brokers.
- We do not access your contacts, photos, files, location, microphone or camera.
5. Children
The App is not directed to, and is not intended for, children under the age of 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in the user's jurisdiction). The App does not knowingly collect personal information from children. The App is not part of the Google Play Families program.
6. Permissions used by this edition
android.permission.INTERNET— required to reach the IPTV server you configured.android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE— used to detect loss of connectivity during playback.android.permission.WAKE_LOCK— used by the Android Media3 / ExoPlayer library to keep playback alive when the screen would otherwise sleep.android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICEandandroid.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_MEDIA_PLAYBACK— required by the media playback service.
This edition does not request AD_ID, ACCESS_ADSERVICES_* or POST_NOTIFICATIONS.
7. Network traffic
Many independent IPTV providers serve their streams over plain HTTP rather than HTTPS. To remain compatible with the services our users actually subscribe to, the App allows cleartext (HTTP) traffic. As a consequence, the connection between your device and your IPTV provider is only as secure as that provider chooses to make it.
8. Your rights
Because virtually all of your data lives on your device, you can exercise the following at any time directly inside the App:
- Access: every piece of data the App holds about you is visible in its UI.
- Rectification: edit a profile through Switch profile → Edit.
- Erasure: clear history / favourites / resume via History → Clear history, delete a profile, or uninstall the App to wipe everything.
- Portability: not applicable — the App does not export device-only state, and we hold no copy of it.
If the GDPR (EEA / UK), the LGPD (Brazil), the CCPA / CPRA (California) or another personal-data law applies to you, you may exercise any additional rights granted by those laws by emailing us at streameasy.support@gmail.com.
9. Data retention
The Developer retains nothing because the Developer receives nothing. Locally, your data persists on your device until you delete it through the App or uninstall the App.
10. Account deletion
The App does not require, create, or maintain any user account with the Developer. There is no online account to delete. To delete all locally stored data at once, uninstall the App from your device.
11. Changes to this Policy
If this Policy changes, the new version will be published at this URL with an updated “Last updated” date. Material changes will also be announced in the App's release notes on Google Play.
