Privacy Policy
Effective Date: May 12, 2026
Your privacy is a core feature of OnlyPlayer. We build software that respects you. We do not track you, we do not sell your data, and we do not host any of your media.
1. The Short Version
OnlyPlayer operates entirely locally on your device. When you play a video, it stays on your device. We have no servers to store your media, no analytics SDKs to track your behavior, and no advertising networks to sell your attention.
2. Data We Do Not Collect
Because OnlyPlayer is designed as a pure, offline-first local media player, we physically cannot collect the following:
- Media Content: The videos you play, their file names, metadata, or directories are never transmitted over the internet.
- Usage Data: We do not track which features you use, how long you use the app, or what you click.
- Personal Information: We do not require an account, email address, or phone number to use the core application.
3. Biometric Security & App Lock
If you choose to secure your OnlyPlayer experience using our App Lock feature, you may utilize Face ID or Touch ID. This authentication process is handled entirely by Apple's secure enclave (LocalAuthentication framework) on your device.
- We do not have access to your facial data or fingerprints.
- We only receive a cryptographic "success" or "failure" token from iOS to unlock the app.
- Your custom PIN is hashed and securely stored in your device's Keychain, and never leaves your device.
4. Photo Library Access
To allow you to import and play videos, OnlyPlayer requests read-only access to your device's Photo Library. The videos you select are read locally on your device and are never uploaded, transmitted, or shared with any external servers.
5. Apple App Store & Crash Reports
While we do not use third-party analytics, Apple may collect anonymous crash reports and opt-in app usage data if you have explicitly permitted Apple to share this data with developers in your iOS device settings. This data contains no personally identifiable information and is used strictly to fix bugs and improve performance. Additionally, Apple processes subscription receipts; we validate them locally and do not transmit them to any external servers.
6. User Rights & Data Deletion
We believe in absolute data minimalism. Because you do not have an account and we collect zero personal data, there is no data stored on our end for you to request or delete. Simply uninstalling the app will instantly erase all your local app configurations and history.
7. Changes to This Policy
If we ever decide to change our privacy practices (for example, if we introduce an optional cloud-sync feature in the future), we will update this document and ensure that any new data practices remain strictly opt-in and transparent.
