Privacy Policy

Data collected

When you sign in, we may store your name and email; viewing history, dates and personal notes; ratings, series progress, plans, viewing priorities, recommendation preferences, profile images, friendships and community content you submit. In guest mode, preferences stay in your browser’s local storage.

How data is used

Data is used to produce personal recommendations, preserve progress and lists, operate community features, maintain security and carry out actions you initiate. Personal data is not sold for advertising.

Service providers

Film and series catalogue information comes from TMDB. Sign-in is managed by an identity provider; CineFlowy does not see or store your password. Hosting providers may process the application and signed-in users’ records.

Retention and security

Account data is kept as needed to provide the service or until you delete it. Access is linked to your account and API endpoints verify identity on the server. No online system can guarantee absolute security.

A copy of your last synced account records is stored on this device and can be used for offline opening for 30 days. Signing out through the app or deleting your data removes this copy. Passwords and sign-in credentials are not included.

Your controls

Download a readable copy of your data or permanently delete your CineFlowy data from “My data and privacy” in the app. For privacy and deletion requests, contact muhammetfatinkol@icloud.com or use in-app feedback.

Circle and imported history

Your Circle profile and the titles marked as watched are visible to signed-in users unless either of you has blocked the other. Viewing dates and private viewing notes are not shared in that list. Circle posts are friends-only by default. In Settings → Circle and sharing, you can make existing and new posts visible to all signed-in users or restrict them to friends again. Automatic feed sharing of ratings and reviews is controlled there as well. Reviews published on a title’s detail page are also visible on that title page.

Netflix CSV files are processed on your device. Title names are sent to the catalogue to find matches; only confirmed records are added to your account. Films marked as watched are included in your profile’s watched list.

Backups

Daily automatic backups include the database and profile images and are kept in restricted storage for up to 30 days. Account deletion immediately invalidates previous automatic backups; stored copies are removed when the scheduler runs and a new backup captures current data. Separate manual migration backups are outside this automatic cleanup; contact support for requests concerning those copies.

Restricted manual backups may be taken before application migrations to prevent data loss. They are separate from active records. Requests concerning these copies must also be applied before any restoration.

Changes

This policy may change with the product or applicable requirements. Significant changes are announced in the app or through the update date on this page.
