Elamir Stream Player

Last updated: 28 September 2026

Elamir Stream Player ("the app") is a media player for iPhone, iPad, Android, Android TV and Windows. It plays playlists that you add (a login from your provider or an M3U link), videos on your device and podcasts. Not every feature is in every version: for example, the App Store version has no radio directory, no downloads and no recordings. Where it matters, this policy says which versions a point applies to. It explains what data the app handles, where it goes and how to delete it. We do not sell your personal data.

1. We provide no content

The app does not host, sell or supply any TV channels, films, series or streams, and it comes with no playlists. Everything you watch comes from the provider or source you add yourself. You are responsible for having the right to use the sources you add.

2. Your playlists stay on your device

• Playlist details you enter (server address, username, password, M3U or EPG link) are stored only on your device. The app connects directly from your device to that provider; we never receive, see or store these details on our servers.
• Channel lists, posters and TV guide data are downloaded from your provider to your device. Favorites, watch history, resume points, downloads and recordings (in the versions that have them), reminders, profiles and settings are stored on your device too.
• The app never puts your playlist passwords in error messages or the diagnostics report.

3. Optional YouVyron account (sync)

You can use the whole app without an account. If you choose to create a YouVyron account (Settings → Account & sync) to sync between your devices, the app talks to our YouVyron server, and we store:

• your email address and a hashed password (we never store the password itself), an account id, and the random device id of each signed-in device (created by the app; not your advertising id, IMEI or serial number) with its platform and app version;
• what is synced: favorites, watch history, resume points, the list of locked (parental) categories and display choices (sort order, view mode).

Never synced: your playlists and their logins or passwords, stream links, the parental PIN, downloads and recordings. Account data is used only to sign you in and sync your devices. It is kept until you delete the account (see section 11). Nothing is sent to our server for the account until you create an account or sign in.

4. Premium and purchases

• App Store and Google Play versions: premium is a one-time in-app purchase processed by Apple or Google. Apple / Google handle the payment; we never see your card or payment details. The purchase is confirmed by the store and remembered on your device, and it stays with your Apple ID / Google account, so you can get it back on a new device with Restore purchases. These versions never use license keys: they contact our server only if you create or sign in to the optional YouVyron account (section 3).
• Versions downloaded directly from our website (not from the App Store or Google Play) use license keys instead. To check a key, the app sends the license key, a random device id created by the app (not your advertising id, IMEI or serial number), the platform and the app version to our server. Older activation codes are checked by a Google Firebase cloud function with the code and the same device id.

5. Advertising

Free (non-premium) users on Android phones and tablets, iPhone and iPad see ads from Google AdMob: never when the app opens, and at most one full-screen ad per session, after a video is closed. Every other ad is a video ad you choose to watch: before Podcasts, Radio (not in the App Store version) or Free TV (website versions only) play, the app (version 1.4.1 and later) first asks whether you want to watch a short ad (one ad covers the next hour while the app is open) and loads it only if you agree; and on the Premium screen you can watch one to unlock premium features for an hour. Premium users see no ads; Android TV and the Windows version show no AdMob ads, and Kids mode shows no full-screen ad. To show and measure ads, Google may collect your device's advertising identifier, IP address (approximate location), ad interactions and diagnostic data, as described in Google's ads policy.

• European Economic Area, UK and Switzerland: before the first ad the app shows Google's consent message (Google's User Messaging Platform). No ad is requested until you have answered, and ads follow your choice. You can change it any time in Settings, About, Ad privacy choices.
• iPhone / iPad: the app asks for permission first (App Tracking Transparency). If you don't allow it, only non-personalized ads are requested and the advertising identifier is not used.
• Kids mode: any ad request is marked as directed to children, limited to content suitable for general audiences (G) and non-personalized.
• Android: you can reset or delete your advertising ID or opt out of ads personalization in your device's Google settings.

6. Diagnostics report

The app keeps a small technical log on your device to help fix problems. It is never uploaded automatically. From Settings → Help you can create a diagnostics report, read all of it first, and then share, save or copy it yourself. We only receive it if you choose to send it to us. It contains no playlist passwords.

7. Local network

• Cast (not in the App Store version): the app looks for Chromecast, AirPlay and DLNA devices on your Wi-Fi so you can play on your TV.
• Set up from your phone: when you open this screen, the app runs a small one-time web page on your local network (shown as a QR code) so you can type a playlist on your phone. It is reachable only from your local network, stops after 10 minutes or after one use, and nothing passes through our servers.

On iPhone and iPad, iOS asks your permission for local network access.

8. Other services the app contacts directly

Like any website you visit, these services see your IP address when the app contacts them. We receive nothing from them.

• Your own playlist provider (the one you add).
• The Apple iTunes Search API and the podcast's own feed and audio servers (Podcasts); Radio Browser and the stations' servers (radio, not in the App Store version); and, in the versions from our website only, iptv-org (free, publicly listed TV channels) — only when you open those sections. The App Store and Google Play versions have no TV channel list.
• Google Fonts (fonts.gstatic.com): the app's font is downloaded from Google's servers the first time it is needed, then kept on your device.
• Cloudflare (1.1.1.1) and Google (8.8.8.8) DNS-over-HTTPS, only as a fallback when your network cannot resolve a provider's address.
• GitHub, to check for updates — only in the Windows and website Android versions (store versions are updated by the store).

9. Notifications, backups and files

TV guide reminders are scheduled locally on your device. Backups (Settings → Backup & Restore) are encrypted files that you save wherever you choose; we never receive them. A backup includes your playlists and their logins so it can restore them, and any copy of the app can open it, so keep backup files private. The parental PIN is not included. Downloads and recordings are saved on your device only (the App Store version has neither).

10. Third-party services and their policies

• Google AdMob and Google's User Messaging Platform (ads consent) — Ads policy
• Google Play Billing — Google Privacy Policy
• Apple App Store in-app purchase — Apple Privacy Policy
• Google Firebase (activation codes, website versions only) — Firebase Privacy
• Google Fonts (the app's font) — Google Privacy Policy

11. Keeping and deleting your data

• On your device: removed when you use Settings → Reset app, clear the app's data or uninstall the app.
• Delete your YouVyron account in the app: Settings → Account & sync → Delete account. This permanently deletes everything this app synced with the account (favorites, watch history, resume points, locked categories, display choices) and this app's sessions, and signs out all your devices. Your lists on the device you are using stay there.
• Your email and password are deleted too, unless another YouVyron app (for example the YouVyron keyboard) still uses the same account: then the email and password stay for that app, and the app tells you so. You can delete them in that app, or by email (below).
• What stays, without your email: each device that was signed in keeps its random device id (with the platform and app version) under a new anonymous account with no email. In the versions downloaded directly from our website, a license key stays with the device that activated it, also unlinked from your email, so it keeps working there. You can ask us by email to delete these records too.
• Delete your account without the app: email us from the address of the account with the subject "Delete my account". We delete it within 30 days and confirm by email. You can also ask us to delete a license record or device id this way.
• Premium bought in the App Store or Google Play is not part of the account: it stays with your Apple ID / Google account and comes back with Restore purchases.

You can also email us to ask which account data we hold about you.

12. Security

The app talks to our servers over encrypted HTTPS connections. Account passwords are stored only as hashes.

13. Children

The app is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect their data. Parents can use Kids mode and the parental PIN to limit what is shown.

14. Changes

If this policy changes, we update this page and the "Last updated" date above.
