Last Updated: April 25, 2026

Smart TV Remote - Cast to TV ("App", "we", "us", "our") explains how information is handled when you use the iOS app.

This app is designed to discover compatible devices on your local network and cast/control media playback (for example Chromecast/Google TV, Roku, Fire TV, LG, Samsung, Apple TV, Vizio, DLNA devices).

1. Information We Process

A. Device and Media Access on iOS

• Local Network access: Used to discover TVs/devices and communicate with them on your Wi-Fi network.
• Photo Library access (read): Used only so you can select local media to cast.

We do not run our own cloud media storage for your personal local media files.

B. Analytics and Diagnostics

The App integrates:

• Firebase Analytics (Google)
• Microsoft Clarity

These services may process usage and diagnostic data according to their own policies.

C. Advertising

The app integrates Google AdMob. Ad providers may process advertising identifiers, device/network signals, and ad interaction events for ad delivery, measurement, and fraud prevention.

D. Web Cast and URL Processing

When you use Web Cast, social URL extraction, or IPTV features, URLs/playlist links you provide may be requested by:

• destination websites/services,
• casting/player endpoints,
• extraction endpoints used by the feature flow.

E. Remote Config

The app fetches ad configuration from:

• https://xanong.b-cdn.net/IOS/test_ad.json

Network requests include normal network metadata (for example IP/network headers) handled by your ISP/network/CDN path.

2. Permissions We Do Not Request on iOS

• Camera
• Microphone
• Contacts
• SMS
• Precise GPS location

3. How Information Is Used

We process data to:

• discover and connect to compatible devices,
• cast media and provide remote-control functions,

4. Data Sharing

Data may be shared with third-party processors only as needed to operate app features:

• Google (Firebase Analytics, AdMob),

We do not sell your personal data.

5. Storage and Retention

• Some operational data (for example paired devices, app settings, IPTV entries) may be stored locally on your device.
• Analytics/ads retention is controlled by their respective providers under their own policies.

6. Security

We use reasonable technical safeguards, but no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.
