Premiere
Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 10, 2026
The short version
Premiere is a local-first app. Your film library, watchlist, swipes, ratings, notes, and watch history live in a database on your device — not on our servers. There are no accounts, no sign-up, no ads, no analytics, and no tracking. We cannot see what you watch, rate, or skip.
What stays on your device
Everything you do in the app: the films you import, swipe, save, rate, review, and watch, plus your settings. Deleting the app deletes this data. You can also wipe it yourself at any time in the app (Me → Start over).
What leaves your device
•
Film data requests. When you search for a film, import a list, or the app fetches more films for a filter, the app requests film metadata from The Movie Database (TMDB) through a server we operate. These requests contain the search text or film identifiers needed to answer them — never your identity, because the app has no concept of one. Our server forwards the request to TMDB and returns the result; our own application logs record only aggregate counts (e.g. rejected requests), not who asked for what. Our hosting provider (Expo EAS Hosting, running on Cloudflare infrastructure) may process standard technical data such as IP addresses transiently to operate the service. Poster images load directly from TMDB’s image servers.
•
Crash reports. If the app crashes or hits an internal error, an anonymized diagnostic report (stack trace, device model, OS and app version) is sent to Sentry, hosted in the European Union. Reports are configured to exclude personal data and are used for one thing: fixing bugs.
•
App updates. On launch the app checks our update service (Expo EAS Update) for a newer version of itself. The request carries standard technical metadata (app and update version, platform) — no personal identity.
•
Outbound links. If you open a trailer (YouTube) or a “where to watch” link (JustWatch), you leave the app, and those services’ own privacy policies apply from that point.
Third-party services
•
TMDB — film metadata and images. This product uses the TMDB API but is not endorsed or certified by TMDB. Streaming availability data is provided by JustWatch via TMDB.
•
Sentry — anonymized crash reporting (EU region).
•
Expo (EAS) — app hosting infrastructure and over-the-air app updates.
What we don't do
•
We don’t collect, store, sell, or share personal data.
•
We don’t profile you or build a taste model on a server.
•
We don’t use third-party analytics or advertising SDKs.
•
We don’t require an account, email, or any sign-in.
Children
Premiere is not directed at children under 13 and collects no data from anyone.
Changes
If this policy materially changes (for example, if a future version adds accounts or social features), we will update this page and the date above before the change ships.
