Privacy Policy

Introduction

Yacine TV is a free live-sports and entertainment streaming application for Android and iOS that brings together live TV channels, live scores, and match highlights across football, basketball, tennis, cricket, volleyball, and more. This Privacy Policy explains what information we handle, how we use it, and the choices you have. It applies to the Yacine TV mobile apps and to this website.

We built Yacine TV around a simple idea: you should be able to watch without signing up. Because no account is required, we deliberately keep the data we collect to a minimum. By using the app or the website, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

Information We Collect

No account required. You do not need to register, log in, or provide a name, phone number, or password to watch content on Yacine TV. We do not build user profiles and we do not ask you to create one.

The limited information we handle falls into three categories:

• Device and technical information: basic details such as device type and model, operating system version, app version, language and region settings, and a non-permanent identifier used to keep the app working correctly. This helps us deliver a stable stream and diagnose crashes.
• App usage and analytics: aggregated, non-identifying signals such as which sections are opened, which features are used, session length, and error reports. These are used to understand overall performance, not to track you as an individual.
• Data you choose to submit: if you write to us through the contact form on this website, we receive the name, email address, and message you provide so we can reply. Providing this information is entirely optional and only happens when you reach out to us.

How We Use Information

We use the limited information described above only for legitimate, clearly defined purposes:

• To operate, maintain, and improve the streaming experience and the website.
• To detect, diagnose, and fix bugs, crashes, and playback problems.
• To understand which features are useful so we can prioritise improvements.
• To respond to questions, feedback, and support requests you send us.
• To protect the service against abuse, fraud, and security threats.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use the data you submit through the contact form for advertising.

Cookies & Local Storage (Website)

This website uses a small number of cookies and browser local storage entries to function properly. These remember essential preferences such as your chosen language (English or Arabic) and help keep the site secure and responsive.

We keep non-essential cookies to a minimum. Where analytics or optional cookies are used, you can control them through your browser settings, and most browsers let you block or delete cookies at any time. Disabling essential cookies may affect how parts of the site work.

Analytics & Third-Party Services

To keep the app reliable, we rely on a small set of reputable third-party services, which may include mobile analytics and crash-reporting tools and the app distribution platforms (such as the Google Play Store and Apple App Store). These providers may process technical and usage data on our behalf under their own privacy terms.

We configure these tools to collect only what we need and, where possible, in an aggregated or de-identified form. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of the app stores and any network you use to access the service.

Third-Party Channels & Links

Yacine TV is an aggregator: much of the live TV, scores, and highlights it displays is provided, hosted, or streamed by third parties. When you watch third-party content or follow a link outside our app or website, you are subject to that third party's own privacy practices and terms.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices, data collection, or content of third-party channels, streams, advertisers, or websites. We do not control them and cannot guarantee how they handle your information. Please review their policies before providing any data to them.

Data Retention

We keep information only for as long as it is needed for the purposes described in this policy. Technical and analytics data is typically retained in an aggregated form for a limited period and then deleted or anonymised.

Messages you send through the contact form are kept only as long as necessary to handle your request and any reasonable follow-up, after which they are deleted unless we are required to retain them for legal reasons.

Children's Privacy

Yacine TV is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information through the contact form, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

Data Security

We apply reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect the limited information we handle against loss, misuse, and unauthorised access. This includes encrypted connections for the website and restricted access to any data submitted through the contact form.

No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so while we work hard to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Your Rights & Choices

Depending on where you live, you may have rights over your personal information, including the right to access, correct, or delete the data you have submitted, and the right to object to or restrict certain processing.

• Because no account is required, we usually hold very little that identifies you personally.
• You can ask us to delete any message and contact details you sent through the contact form.
• You can control cookies and analytics through your browser and device settings.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below and we will respond within a reasonable time.

International Users

Yacine TV is available across many regions, including the MENA market. If you access the service from outside the country where our providers store or process data, your information may be transferred to and handled in other countries whose data-protection laws may differ from those where you live. By using the service, you consent to this transfer where permitted by applicable law.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the service, technology, or legal requirements. When we make material changes, we will update the version on this page. Your continued use of Yacine TV after an update means you accept the revised policy.

Contact Us

If you have questions about this Privacy Policy or how your information is handled, we would be glad to hear from you. You can reach us through the /contact page on this website or by email at support@yacine-tv.app. Please include enough detail for us to understand and respond to your request.
