Privacy Policy
Effective Date: December 24, 2025
This Privacy Policy describes how WatchBase ("we," "our," or "us") handles information when you use our mobile application (the "App").
Information Collection and Use
WatchBase does not collect, store, transmit, or share any personal information or user data. All information you enter into the App, including your favorites, watchlist, viewing preferences, and settings, is stored locally on your device and is never transmitted to us or any third party.
Data Storage
All data generated through your use of the App is stored exclusively on your device. This includes:
- Your favorite movies and TV shows
- Your watchlist
- Your viewing history
- Your app preferences and settings
We do not have access to this information, and it is not backed up to any cloud service or external server operated by us.
Third-Party Services
The App uses The Movie Database (TMDB) API to retrieve publicly available information about movies and TV shows, such as titles, descriptions, images, and ratings. When you use the App, requests are made to TMDB's servers to fetch this content information. These requests do not include any of your personal data or usage information.
TMDB's use of information is governed by their own privacy policy, which can be found at https://www.themoviedb.org/privacy-policy.
Permissions
The App may request permission to send you notifications. This permission is optional and is only used to provide you with notifications about content you have added to your watchlist. These notifications are generated locally on your device.
Analytics and Tracking
We do not use any analytics services, tracking technologies, or advertising networks in the App. We do not collect information about how you use the App.
Data Security
Because all data is stored locally on your device and we do not collect or transmit any information, your data is protected by your device's security features. We recommend that you use appropriate security measures to protect your device.
Children's Privacy
The App does not knowingly collect any information from children or any other users. The App is designed to function without collecting personal information from users of any age.
Your Rights
Since we do not collect any personal information, there is no data for you to access, correct, or delete from our systems. You maintain complete control over all data stored locally on your device. You may delete all App data at any time by uninstalling the App from your device.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
