BingeBrowse offers optional accounts, but does not sell personal information, use advertising identifiers or track people across other companies’ apps and websites. When you sign in, your store layout, theme, carpet and selected streaming services sync to your account; personal-library connection details stay on your device.
Who we are
BingeBrowse is a virtual video store operated by Oliver and Patrick Evans. Questions or privacy requests can be sent to oliievanss@gmail.com.
Optional BingeBrowse accounts
You can sign in with Apple, Google or an email sign-in link. Supabase provides authentication for BingeBrowse and processes your email address, provider identity, authentication events and session credentials so it can create and secure your account. Apple or Google also processes the information involved when you choose that provider. Their privacy policies apply to their part of the sign-in process.
Your browser stores an authentication session so you can remain signed in. BingeBrowse stores your store layout, theme, carpet and selected streaming services in your Supabase account so those preferences can follow you to another device. Signing in does not upload your Plex, Jellyfin or Emby server address, access token, credentials or local catalogue to Supabase.
Information kept on your device
BingeBrowse uses WebKit or browser storage, including local storage, IndexedDB and caches, so the store can remember your choices. This may include:
- selected streaming services, country, language, theme, carpet and Family view preference;
- film lists, store arrangement and other interface preferences; and
- optional Plex, Jellyfin or Emby server details, access tokens, library selections and cached catalogue information.
Personal-library credentials and catalogue information are stored locally on your device. Connections are made directly from your device to Plex, Jellyfin, Emby or the server address you provide; BingeBrowse does not receive or store those credentials on its own servers. A password entered for Jellyfin or direct Emby sign-in is sent to that server and is not retained by BingeBrowse.
Information processed when you use BingeBrowse
- Hosting and regional selection. Vercel and Cloudflare process ordinary network information such as IP address, request details and device or browser information to deliver and secure the service. An approximate country derived from the request is used to offer the relevant streaming catalogue; precise location is not requested.
- Aggregate analytics. We use Vercel Web Analytics to understand broad usage such as routes viewed, referrers, device or browser type and approximate region. A shared route may contain a film identifier. Vercel describes these page-view records as anonymous and not associated with an individual or IP address. We do not use this information for targeted advertising or cross-app tracking.
- Account authentication. If you choose to sign in, Supabase and your selected Apple, Google or email provider process the account information described above.
- Messages. If you email us, we receive the address and information you choose to include so we can respond.
Catalogue credits and third-party services
BingeBrowse uses TMDB under a commercial API licence for film metadata, imagery and regional streaming availability. This website uses TMDB and the TMDB APIs but is not endorsed, certified or otherwise approved by TMDB. Streaming availability supplied through TMDB is powered by JustWatch.
Film metadata and artwork are processed and normally delivered from BingeBrowse’s own hosting under its commercial TMDB API licence. Ordinary catalogue browsing therefore does not normally connect your browser directly to TMDB. If you follow a TMDB fallback or another external link, your browser connects to that third party and its privacy policy applies.
BingeBrowse can also open or connect to streaming providers, YouTube's privacy-enhanced trailer player, Plex, Jellyfin and Emby. The app also links to Discord and Buy Me a Coffee.
Loading third-party media, playing a trailer, connecting a library or following an external link may send those services your IP address, device information and the information needed for the feature you requested. The YouTube player loads only after you ask to watch a trailer; the YouTube Terms of Service and Google Privacy Policy then apply. Their own privacy policies govern their processing. BingeBrowse does not control external websites or apps.
Some Amazon links are affiliate links. They may identify BingeBrowse as the referrer and may earn us a commission without changing your price. Sharing uses your operating system's share sheet; BingeBrowse does not receive the recipient you choose.
Why we process information
We process the limited information described above to provide the store, remember requested settings, select an appropriate regional catalogue, connect optional libraries, understand aggregate performance, prevent abuse and answer messages. Where applicable, we rely on providing the service you requested and our legitimate interests in operating and improving it.
Sharing, retention and your choices
We do not sell personal information. Information is shared only with service providers and third parties as described above, or where required by law.
You can remove locally stored BingeBrowse information by disconnecting a personal library, clearing the app or website data, or deleting the app. Disconnecting removes the local connection and catalogue but may not revoke a token at the provider; access can also be revoked in Plex, Emby or your server settings. You can sign out from the Account panel. To request deletion of your BingeBrowse account, email oliievanss@gmail.com from the account address.
Authentication, hosting and analytics providers retain operational information according to their own policies and our configured retention periods. Email correspondence is kept only as long as reasonably needed to respond, maintain records or meet legal obligations.
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete or object to processing of personal information. Contact us to exercise those rights. You may also complain to your local data-protection authority.
Children and Family view
BingeBrowse is rated for users aged 13 and over and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Family view filters the visible catalogue on that device; it is not an age-verification system or a locked parental control.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as BingeBrowse changes. The effective date above will be revised when a material update is published.
