Privacy Policy
Effective Date: March 18, 2026
Our Commitment to Your Privacy
LightPlayer provides media playback, local media browsing, subscriptions, and ad-supported features. We use a limited set of third-party services for analytics, crash reporting, subscriptions, and advertising. We only access local media and account-related data needed to provide these features.
Information We Collect
LightPlayer collects and processes data needed to run the app, improve reliability, support purchases, and serve ads when enabled:
- Local Media Access: Images, videos, and audio you choose to browse on your device
- App Diagnostics: Crash and performance information through Firebase Crashlytics
- Analytics Data: Usage and engagement events through Firebase Analytics
- Subscription Data: Purchase, entitlement, and account status data through RevenueCat/Amazon
- Advertising Data: Ad requests, device identifiers, and measurement data used by our mediation and ad network partners when ads are enabled
- Support Communications: Email addresses and messages you send to us directly
- Local Preferences: App settings stored on your device
App Permissions
The app requests only the permissions needed for the features you use. These permissions support playback and local media browsing:
- Media Access: To browse local images, videos, and audio stored on your device
- Network Access: To stream media, validate subscriptions, request ads, and load remote configuration
- Device Playback Features: To use your device's audio, video, and casting capabilities
What We Don't Do
LightPlayer does not sell your personal information. We do not access data such as contacts, SMS, call logs, or precise location. Your local media stays on your device unless you actively use a feature that sends data to one of our service providers as described in this policy.
Data Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards to protect data handled by the app and our service providers. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we work to reduce risk and keep dependencies and integrations up to date.
Children's Privacy
LightPlayer is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have inadvertently collected such information, please contact us immediately so we can delete it.
