1. Introduction

Welcome to TV+, accessible at tv.ihemanth.com (“we,” “our,” or “us”). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information.

This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, store, and disclose your data when you access or use our streaming platform, related applications, and connected services (collectively, the “Platform”).

Your phone number is used only for authentication. We do not sell, share, or use it for marketing.

B. Information Collected Automatically

When you use the Platform, we automatically collect:

  • ● IP address and approximate location (city-level or region)
  • ● Device information (type, OS, browser, screen resolution)

You may disable cookies in your browser, but doing so might affect certain functionalities.

4. OTP and Phone Number Authentication

When signing up or logging in with a phone number:

  • ● The OTP is processed securely by Google Firebase, not stored or logged by TV+.
  • ● We never see or record your OTP; verification happens directly through Firebase’s servers.
  • ● Once verified, Firebase provides a secure access token to authenticate your account.

Firebase may collect limited technical information such as:

  • ● Your phone number
  • ● Verification timestamp
  • ● Device type and identifier

This is done solely to ensure secure authentication and prevent abuse.
