Privacy Policy

This policy explains how CineFlex (“we”, “the site”) handles information when you use cineflex-app-beta.vercel.app or the installed CineFlex app.

1. Information we don’t collect

• No sign-up: we never ask for your name, email, phone number or password.
• No analytics, tracking pixels, fingerprinting or advertising SDKs from CineFlex.
• One functional cookie (cf_returning) records only that you’ve opened the app, so the site skips the welcome page next time. It contains no identifier.
• No payment information — CineFlex is free.

2. Information stored on your device

To remember your preferences, CineFlex saves a small amount of data in your browser’s local storage. It never leaves your device and we can’t see it:

• My List and your lists — titles you saved and lists you created.
• Continue Watching — the titles (and for series, the season and episode) you last opened, and roughly how far you got.
• Settings — accent color, ad shield, autoplay and spoiler options.
• Recent searches — your last few search terms.

If you install the app, a service worker also caches pages you visited and the site’s own files so it opens faster and can show an offline screen. You can clear all of this at any time in Settings or by clearing site data in your browser. Details are on the Cookies & Storage page.

3. Information processed to run the service

• Requests to our server. When you browse or search, your browser requests pages and search results from our server, which fetches the data from TMDB on your behalf. Your search terms are used only to answer that request.
• Hosting logs. The site is hosted on Vercel, which—like any web host—processes technical data such as IP address, browser type and requested URL to deliver the site and keep it secure. See Vercel’s privacy policy.

4. Third parties

• TMDB (The Movie Database). Posters and backdrops load directly from TMDB’s image servers, so TMDB receives your IP address and browser details for those image requests. TMDB privacy policy.
• Video player provider. Playback runs in an embedded player operated by a third party (VidCore). When you open the player, your browser connects to that provider, which may set its own cookies, use its own storage, and show its own content. Its practices are governed by its own policies, not this one.
• YouTube. Trailer links open YouTube in a new tab, only when you click them.

5. Children

CineFlex is not directed at children under 13 and we don’t knowingly collect personal information from them. Some titles are intended for mature audiences; parents should supervise younger viewers.

6. Your choices and rights

Because we don’t hold personal data on our servers, there’s generally nothing for us to access, correct or delete on your behalf — you control everything stored on your device. If you have a privacy question or request, write to iteshxt@gmail.com.

7. Changes

We may update this policy as the service changes. The date at the top shows the latest revision. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised policy.
