AXL Player Privacy Policy

1. Information on your device

• Your videos: with permission, AXL reads video names, folders, thumbnails and file details to display and play your local library. The library is not uploaded to us.
• Playback and downloads: media links, request details, downloaded files, resume positions and settings are kept locally. A local watch-time counter measures actual playback between advertising breaks.
• Performance: a temporary streaming cache and the last 20 numerical playback summaries help playback and troubleshooting. These summaries contain no video titles or URLs and are not uploaded.

Android media permission controls which videos AXL can access. Notification permission is used for download updates. AXL does not request camera, microphone, contacts or precise-location permission.

2. Network requests and support

Opening, inspecting or downloading a link sends requests directly to its media hosts. They receive your IP address, the requested URL, any source credentials included in the request, and connection details. Their own privacy and retention policies apply.

If you email us, we receive your email address, message and any attachments. We use these to answer your request and resolve issues. Please do not send passwords, private videos or links containing access tokens.

App updates through Google Play

For installations from Google Play, AXL checks for updates when opening the app. An unavailable or failed startup check does not prevent the app from opening. Google Play processes device metadata, the app version and installed modules or asset packs to determine update availability and size. It encrypts this data and deletes it according to its retention rules. See Google Play's update data information.

Update checks do not upload your video library to us. AXL keeps local check and reminder times. Google Play asks before an update download; you choose when to restart and install.

3. Advertising

AXL is supported by advertising. It uses Unity Ads for browsing-screen banners, rewarded downloads and scheduled video advertising breaks at natural pauses. A new download requires choosing the reward action and completing the ad. There are no banners inside the player and no full-screen ad over actively playing video.

Unity and its partners may process IP addresses, approximate location, device or advertising identifiers, ad interactions and diagnostics to deliver and measure ads and prevent fraud. This does not require uploading your video library. See Unity's privacy policy and SDK data disclosures.

Advertising is part of the app and there is no in-app switch to disable it. AXL requests contextual, non-personalized ads; these can still process network and device information. Unity's ad privacy controls and privacy policy provide information about its processing and how to exercise your rights. Required privacy controls are separate from whether the app is supported by advertising.

4. This website

This website has no analytics, advertising scripts, accounts, support forms or tracking cookies. Our web host receives IP addresses and request headers when serving pages and may retain operational and security logs. Email and hosting providers process the information needed to deliver those services. External links follow the destination's privacy policy.

5. Retention and security

Downloads and settings remain until you remove them or clear app data. Resume history is limited to 300 records; entries older than 180 days are ignored. Temporary streaming data is limited to 256 MiB and evicted as needed. Playback summaries retain only the latest 20 sessions.

Saved media-request details use Android Keystore-backed encryption. Downloaded videos and cached video bytes are app-private but not separately encrypted by AXL. HTTPS protects network traffic; user-selected HTTP links are not encrypted in transit.

We keep support correspondence as needed to resolve requests and meet legal obligations. Media hosts, our email and web hosts, and Unity manage their own retention. Contact us about records we control; clearing app data does not erase third-party records.

6. Your choices and rights

You can change Android permissions, remove downloads, clear streaming data in More → Storage, clear summaries in More → Playback health, or clear Android app storage. See Your data for the steps. AXL has no account to delete.

You may contact us to request access, correction or deletion of information we hold, or raise a privacy concern. Applicable rights include those under South Africa's POPIA. Unity's privacy policy explains its separate request process.

7. Children

AXL is not designed for children. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, contact us so we can investigate and take appropriate action.

8. Policy changes

We update this policy when our app, services or data practices change. The date above identifies the latest version. Material changes requiring a new choice will be presented in the app.
