Privacy policy
OwnPlayer does not collect data.
Last updated November 12, 2026
Data we collect
None. OwnPlayer has no account, no analytics, no ads and no crash reporting. It has no third-party SDKs. The developer runs no server for the app and receives no data from it.
What stays on your device
Your playlists, guide links, favorites, watch history, recordings, reminders and settings are saved in the app's own storage on your device.
Xtream Codes and Stalker Portal passwords and the parental control PIN are saved in the iOS Keychain.
Everything is removed when you delete the app.
Servers the app talks to
OwnPlayer connects only to the playlist, guide and stream servers you add, to load lists and play video. Those servers see normal network requests, such as your IP address. Their own terms and privacy policies apply.
When a movie lists a YouTube trailer and you play it, the trailer loads from youtube-nocookie.com. Google's privacy policy applies to that request.
Microphone and speech
Voice search uses the microphone only while you use it. Apple's speech recognition turns your words into search text, under Apple's privacy policy. OwnPlayer does not store or send the audio.
Local network and notifications
Local network access is used only to play UDP channels from your own network. Program reminders are local notifications made on your device.
Backups
Back up data writes a file to a place you choose. It holds your playlists and settings, but never Keychain passwords or your PIN. Playlist links in it can still hold login details, so keep the file private.
Children
OwnPlayer is not made for children and does not knowingly collect data from anyone.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new date.
