गोपनीयता नीति

Data We Collect

We collect account details such as email, username, display name, password hash, preferred locale, date of birth (or legacy birth year), consent choices, reviews, lists, watch history, notification preferences, and subscription status. At registration we also retain the network IP address and an approximate city, region, country, and time zone derived locally from that address for account security, abuse prevention, and regional registration age eligibility. IP-based location is approximate and does not identify a street address.

Analytics and Marketing Consent

Analytics and marketing are optional. Your choices are stored server-side and can be changed across devices through the consent controls.

Retention

Account data, including registration network information, is retained while your account exists. Consent and security records are retained according to the published retention schedule and applicable legal obligations. Data-export download links and archives expire after 48 hours. Registration network information and registration age-decision records are deleted when an account is anonymized. Deleted accounts are anonymized where retention is not legally required.

Third-Party Processors

We use TMDB for media metadata, RevenueCat Billing for subscriptions and payment orchestration, Resend or configured email providers for transactional email, YouTube for video embeds, object storage for private data exports, and Redis/PostgreSQL for application operations.

Your Rights

You can request access, export, deletion, and portability of your data from account settings. You can also object to analytics or marketing processing by disabling consent.

Minors

Cinephilist applies a general account minimum of 13 and additional regional account age restrictions. Registration eligibility is assessed from a declared date of birth and approximate IP country/state; this is not verified age or residence. Successful registration retains the policy revision, applicable thresholds, approximate country/state and assessment time alongside the account. Eligibility preflight does not create an account or separately retain the submitted birthday. If you believe a child has an account contrary to the applicable requirements, contact [email protected] for review. These registration checks do not replace other protections that may be required for minors.

International Transfers

Your data may be processed in countries where our infrastructure and processors operate. We use contractual and technical safeguards appropriate to the service.
