In short: IPTV Atlas has no servers. You don’t create an account and there are no ads or tracking. We don’t collect analytics ourselves. Your information stays on your device and — if you choose — in your own iCloud account. The only exception is the Google Cast (Chromecast) component, which sends anonymous diagnostic data to Google; see below.
What is stored on your device
- Playlists: server or M3U address, username and playlist name. Passwords are stored encrypted in the iOS keychain.
- Usage information: favorites, watch progress, recently watched channels, profiles, hidden and locked categories, home screen layout and app settings.
- Cache: playlist contents, the TV guide, posters and channel logos, plus any movies and episodes you download.
- Parental lock PIN: stored in the iOS keychain.
None of this is sent to us. Deleting the app deletes this data from the device (keychain items may remain depending on iOS).
iCloud sync
If Settings › iCloud sync is on, playlists (without passwords), profiles, favorites and watch progress are synced to your other devices through Apple’s iCloud key-value storage, and passwords and the PIN through iCloud Keychain, all in your own Apple Account. This data is stored by Apple and covered by Apple’s privacy policy; we have no access to it. You can turn sync off at any time.
Where the app connects
- Your IPTV provider: to load the playlist, guide, images and streams, the app connects directly to the server you added. That provider sees your IP address and account details, under its own privacy terms.
- Google Cast (Chromecast): the Google Cast SDK is used to find Chromecast devices on your local network. When you cast, the content address is sent to the Chromecast device. The Google Cast SDK collects a device identifier, diagnostic data and product interaction data that are not linked to you, for analytics and to make casting work; this data is covered by the Google Privacy Policy. It is not used to track you across apps.
- YouTube: tapping “Trailer” opens the trailer on YouTube.
- Demo playlist: demo content plays from publicly available test streams.
Permissions
- Local network: to find Chromecast devices and media servers on your network.
- Notifications: only for program reminders you set in the TV guide; notifications are created on your device.
Children
IPTV Atlas does not knowingly collect data from children. The kids profile and parental lock limit content on the device and do not create any data that leaves it.
