Privacy Policy

MovieRadar is operated by Sai Siddardha Gadi (Friday13 AI Labs), Falkensee, Brandenburg, Germany — the data controller for the purposes of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Contact us any time via the contact form.

Account data. Your email address and name — either from the sign-in provider you choose (Google or GitHub, including an optional profile photo URL) or entered directly when you register with email and password. Passwords are stored only as bcrypt hashes, never in plain text.

Your content. The watch history, ratings, notes, watchlist, collections, reactions, comments and friend connections you create in the app. This is the product — it's stored so the app can show it back to you.

Technical data. Session cookies (web) or an authentication token (mobile) to keep you signed in. We run no advertising and no third-party analytics trackers.

To operate MovieRadar: sync your library across devices, show friends' shared shelves to accepted friends only, and generate AI recommendations. For recommendations, a summary of your taste profile (titles, genres, languages, ratings — never your name or email) is sent to our AI provider to produce suggestions.

We do not sell personal data. We do not use it for advertising.

• Vercel (hosting, EU-available infrastructure) and our database provider (managed PostgreSQL)
• TMDB — title metadata lookups (search queries only, no account identity)
• Google Gemini API — AI recommendation generation (taste-profile summaries only, no account identity)
• Gmail SMTP — transactional email (password reset messages)

Your data is kept while your account exists. Request deletion via the contact form using your account's email address — your account and all associated content are removed permanently.

You have the right to access, rectify, export and erase your personal data, to restrict or object to processing, and to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (in Brandenburg: LDA Brandenburg). One email is enough to exercise any of them.

If this policy changes materially, the effective date above changes with it and significant updates are announced in the app.
