Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 14, 2026

The short version

PlayBeat TV has no accounts, no sign-up and no sign-in. We do not collect, store or share personal information, we do not use cookies or advertising identifiers, and we do not run analytics or tracking scripts. Your favorite channels and watch history never leave your device — they live only in your own browser's local storage.

What we do not collect

  • No names, email addresses, phone numbers or payment details
  • No account credentials — there is nothing to register for
  • No analytics, telemetry, session recording or fingerprinting
  • No advertising cookies, pixels or third-party ad networks
  • No watch history on our servers — we could not see it if we tried

What stays in your browser

When you favorite a channel or watch something, PlayBeat TV stores those preferences locally in your browser using the localStorage API under keys prefixed with playbeat:. This data is accessible only to your own browser on your own device; it is never transmitted to us. Clearing your browser's site data removes it permanently. Because there is no account, we cannot recover it for you either.

Third-party streams

PlayBeat TV is a directory and player for publicly available free-to-air television. When you press play, your browser connects directly to the broadcaster's or the public index's streaming servers — we never proxy, transcode or relay the video. Those third parties may log your IP address and request details under their own privacy policies, exactly as they would if you visited their channels through any other player. We have no access to, and no control over, their logging.

Channel names and logos shown in the catalog are served from the open-source iptv-org index and the broadcasters' public servers for identification purposes only.

Hosting and server logs

This website is hosted on Vercel Inc. Like any web host, Vercel processes standard request data (such as IP address, user agent and requested URL) to deliver pages, protect against abuse and comply with law. That data is governed by Vercel's privacy policy, and PlayBeat TV does not use it to profile you.

Children

PlayBeat TV is a general-audience service and does not knowingly collect any personal information from anyone, including children under 13. Since no personal information is collected at all, none is stored from any age group.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the revised version will be posted on this page with a new "Last updated" date. Material changes that would affect what little data handling exists will be highlighted on the home page for a reasonable period.
