Short version
No accounts, no email collection, no cross-site tracking. Your watching history, favorites, and theme preference stay on your device. Anonymous analytics and ads cover what it costs to run.
Standard web server stuff: IP address, browser type, pages visited. Kept for 30 days, then deleted. We only look at them when something breaks or someone is abusing the service.
When you press play, we count it as a total per channel. The count is not tied to any person, and we have no way to tell who clicked what.
Volume, mute state, favorites, recents, and theme preference are stored in your browser's local storage. Nothing in this group is sent to our servers. Clear your browser data and it is gone.
We read a country code that our edge network attaches to each request, so the home page can surface popular channels in your country and so we can apply legal geoblocks where required. Your IP address itself is not stored alongside that signal.
We use the following tools to understand how the site is used and to catch bugs. They are configured to avoid storing personally identifiable information.
Tvivu uses Google AdSense to display ads that help cover hosting and development costs. Google and its partners use cookies (including the DART cookie) to serve ads based on your prior visits to this site and other sites on the internet.
If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or California, you have the right to access, correct, or delete personal data we hold about you, to object to processing, and to file a complaint with your local data protection authority.
Because we don't run accounts or store visitor IPs alongside the analytics data, we usually have nothing tied to a specific individual to act on. For the third-party tools listed above (Yandex, Google), data subject requests have to be filed with those providers directly. Email [email protected] and we will help where we can.
Tvivu is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has interacted with the site, please contact us at the email below and we will remove any associated data.
Playing a channel makes your browser fetch video from a third-party server. Depending on how that server is configured, the request either reaches it directly or passes through our delivery layer for compatibility. Where it is direct, that server sees your IP address the same way any site you visit does; its logging and privacy practices are its own and outside our control.
We keep no record of which visitor watched which channel. Play counts are per-channel totals and are not tied to a person, a session, or an IP address.
We will update this page if anything changes. The date at the top tells you when the last update happened.
