Adless Privacy Policy
Last updated 26 July 2026. Applies to the Adless Android app.
Adless has no server and no user accounts. Nothing you do in the app is sent to the developer, because there is nowhere for it to be sent.
What Adless is
Adless is a media player for IPTV playlists that you supply. It contains no channels, no streams and no content of its own, and it is not affiliated with any content provider or IPTV service.
Data the developer collects
None. The app has no analytics SDK, no advertising SDK and no crash reporting SDK. The permission that grants access to the Android advertising identifier is blocked in the app manifest, so no component of the app or its dependencies can read one. There is no telemetry, no usage reporting and no diagnostic upload, optional or otherwise.
Data stored on your device
All of the following is written only to storage on the device running the app:
- The playlists you add, and the channels, films and series they contain.
- Provider usernames and passwords, stored in the Android keystore. They are not written to the app database, are not included in any log, and are sent only to the provider you entered them for.
- Favourites, custom groups, hidden and renamed channels, and your channel order.
- Watch history and playback position.
- Downloaded programme guide data.
- App settings, including any parental PIN.
Uninstalling the app removes all of it. Settings contains a "Clear all data" action that does the same without uninstalling.
Network connections the app makes
Adless connects to exactly three kinds of destination:
- Your IPTV provider, at the address you entered, to load your playlist and play streams.
- The programme guide address that your playlist advertises or that you set yourself, to download the guide file.
- Google Play and RevenueCat, to check whether your subscription is active.
There are no other destinations. The app does not contact the developer, and there is no service to contact.
Subscriptions
Billing is handled by Google Play. Payment details are never seen by the app or by the developer. Subscription status is checked through RevenueCat, which acts as a processor for that check and receives an anonymous app user identifier, your purchase status and basic device and country information. It does not receive your playlists, your credentials or anything about what you watch. RevenueCat's own privacy policy governs that processing.
Permissions
- Internet and network state - to reach your provider and play video.
- Wake lock - so playback is not interrupted by the screen timeout.
- Camera - requested only at the moment you open the QR scanner to import a playlist link, and never at launch. Camera frames are decoded on the device and are not stored or transmitted.
Children
Adless is a general-purpose media player and is not directed at children. It includes a parental PIN that can lock groups and individual channels, but what the app can play is decided entirely by the playlist you supply.
Your rights
Under the GDPR, the Turkish KVKK and comparable laws you have rights of access, correction, deletion and portability over personal data held about you. The developer holds no such data, so there is nothing to disclose, correct or delete on request. Data on your device is under your control and is removed by uninstalling the app or by using "Clear all data". For any question about this, write to the address below.
Content you add
You are responsible for the playlists and streams you add to Adless and for complying with the law and with your provider's terms. The developer does not supply, host, index or endorse any stream.
Changes
If a future version of the app collects anything, this policy will be updated before that version is published, and the change will be described here rather than only reflected in the date.
