Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

StreamPalast.com ("we", "us", "our") operates as a free, ad-supported movie and TV streaming aggregator. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding that data. By using StreamPalast, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

2. Data We Collect

We collect minimal data to operate the service:

• Usage Data: Pages visited, time spent, browser type, operating system, and referring URL — collected automatically via server logs and analytics.
• IP Address: Your approximate location (country/city level) may be inferred from your IP address for analytics and ad serving purposes.
• Cookies & Local Storage: We store your last-selected sport tab in your browser's localStorage. We do not use tracking cookies for login or personal profiling.
• Ad Network Data: Our advertising partner (A-ADS) may place cookies and collect data about your browsing behaviour to serve relevant ads. See Section 5 for details.

3. How We Use Your Data

• To provide and improve the StreamPalast service.
• To serve relevant advertisements and generate revenue that keeps the service free.
• To analyse aggregate traffic and usage patterns.
• To comply with legal obligations.

4. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal data. We may share data with:

• Advertising partners for ad serving and measurement (see Section 5).
• Analytics providers (e.g. Cloudflare Analytics) in anonymised, aggregated form.
• Law enforcement if required by applicable law or a valid legal process.

5. Third-Party Advertising

StreamPalast uses the third-party advertising network A-ADS (a-ads.com). These networks may use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to collect information about your device and browsing activity across websites to provide targeted advertising. Their data practices are governed by their own privacy policies. You can opt out of interest-based advertising via Your Online Choices (EU) or NAI Opt-Out (US).

Third-party embed providers (such as EmbedMe, VidSrc, 2Embed) operate independently and have their own privacy practices. StreamPalast is not responsible for their data collection.

6. Cookies

We use the following:

• localStorage (functional): Stores your UI preferences (sport tab selection). No expiry set, stored locally on your device only.
• Third-party ad cookies: Set by advertising partners. Persistent cookies used for ad targeting and measurement.

You can disable or delete cookies via your browser settings. Note that disabling ad cookies will not remove ads — it will make them less relevant.

7. Data Retention

Server logs are retained for up to 30 days for security and diagnostic purposes, then deleted. We do not maintain user accounts or personal profiles.

8. Your Rights (GDPR / UK GDPR)

If you are located in the European Economic Area or United Kingdom, you have the right to: access your data, request correction or deletion, object to processing, and lodge a complaint with your supervisory authority. Contact us at privacy@streampalast.com to exercise these rights.

9. Children's Privacy

StreamPalast is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has submitted personal data, contact us and we will delete it promptly.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date. Continued use of StreamPalast after changes constitutes acceptance.
