Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy outlines how Tea TV APK (referred to as “we,” “our,” or “the application”) collects, uses, discloses, and protects your information when you download, install, or use the Tea TV application. By using Tea TV, you agree to the terms described in this policy. If you do not agree with any part of this privacy policy, please discontinue use of the application immediately.
We are committed to respecting your privacy and ensuring transparency about how your data is handled. This policy applies to all users of Tea TV across all supported devices, including Android, iOS, PC, and Android TV.
Information We Collect
Tea TV is designed to provide free streaming services without requiring user registration or account creation. As a result, we collect minimal personal information. However, certain non-personal data may be collected automatically to improve the application’s performance and user experience.
Information You Provide Voluntarily
Tea TV does not require users to create an account, provide an email address, or submit any personal details to access content. There is no registration process, and we do not ask for your name, phone number, payment information, or physical address.
If you choose third-party services such as Trakt for tracking your watchlist and viewing progress, you may be providing login credentials directly to that third-party service. Tea TV does not store or have access to those credentials.
Information Collected Automatically
When you use Tea TV, certain information may be collected automatically to ensure the application functions correctly. This may include:
- Device Information: Type of device, operating system version, screen resolution, and device model.
- Usage Data: Features accessed, content viewed, search queries, and app navigation patterns.
- Performance Data: Crash logs, error reports, app load times, and streaming quality metrics.
- IP Address: Your device’s IP address may be logged temporarily for network connectivity purposes.
This data is collected aggregated, anonymized format and cannot be used to personally identify you.
How We Use Your Information
The limited information we collect is used solely for the following purposes:
- Application Improvement: Analyzing usage patterns to fix bugs, optimize performance, and enhance user experience.
- Content Optimization: Determining which streaming sources provide the best quality and reliability for users.
- Error Resolution: Investigating and resolving technical issues, crashes, or playback problems.
- Feature Development: Understanding which features are most popular to guide future updates.
We do not use your information for marketing, advertising, profiling, or selling to third parties.
Third-Party Services and Links
Tea TV may integrate with or provide access to third-party services, including:
- Streaming Sources: Content is aggregated from publicly available third-party servers. These servers may collect their own data according to their privacy policies.
- Trakt Integration: If you choose to connect your Trakt account, your watchlist and viewing history will be managed by Trakt according to their privacy policy.
- External Media Players: If you use third-party media players like TPlayer, those applications have their own data handling practices.
- VPN Services: If you choose to use a VPN with Tea TV, the VPN provider’s privacy policy will apply to your data while connected.
Tea TV has no control over and assumes no responsibility for the privacy practices of these third-party services. We encourage users to review the privacy policies of any third-party services they use in conjunction with Tea TV.
Data Storage and Security
Tea TV does not store user data on remote servers. All app-related data, including preferences, watchlists, and downloaded content, is stored locally on your device. We implement reasonable technical measures to protect your device and data, including:
- Encryption of local data where possible
- Secure coding practices to prevent vulnerabilities
- Regular updates to address security issues
However, no method of electronic storage or transmission is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security of your data, especially if your device is compromised or if you download modified versions of the application from unauthorized sources.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Tea TV does not use cookies or similar tracking technologies for advertising or behavioral profiling. The application may use temporary session data to maintain your preferences during a single streaming session, but this data is not stored or shared.
Children’s Privacy
Tea TV is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child has provided us with personal data, please contact us through the official website. We will take steps to delete such information promptly.
Your Rights and Choices
As a Tea TV user, you have the following rights regarding your data:
- Access: You can view all locally stored data by navigating the app settings.
- Deletion: You can delete all app data, including preferences and downloaded content, by uninstalling the application or clearing app data through your device settings.
- Opt-Out: You may choose not to use certain features like Trakt integration to limit data sharing with third parties.
Since we do not store your data on external servers, there is no centralized database to request deletion from. All data is under your control on your device.
Data Retention
We retain automatically collected, anonymized usage data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy. This data is typically aggregated and does not identify individual users. Local data on your device is retained until you choose to delete it or uninstall the application.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We reserve the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time. Changes will be effective immediately upon posting the updated policy on the official website. We encourage users to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we handle your information.
Your continued use of Tea TV after any modifications to this policy constitutes your acceptance of those changes.
International Users
Tea TV is used by individuals worldwide. By using the application, you consent to the processing of your information as described in this policy, regardless of your country of residence. We strive to comply with applicable data protection including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) where applicable.
Limitation of Liability
Tea TV is provided as a free, third-party streaming application. We make no representations regarding the privacy practices of third-party services accessible through the app. Users assume all risks associated with sharing their data with third-party services integrated with Tea TV.
