Privacy Policy

Effective: March 29, 2026

Nostalgex turns your Plex library into live TV channels. We designed it to work without collecting personal data.

Summary

• We do not collect personal information.
• We do not track you across apps or websites.
• The app stores a small amount of configuration on your device.
• The app connects to Plex (and optional third parties) to make features work.

Information we collect

We do not collect personal information about you. Nostalgex does not run analytics, does not create user accounts, and does not sell or rent data.

Information stored on your device

Nostalgex stores a few items locally on your Apple TV (for example, in standard device storage such as UserDefaults) so it can connect to your Plex server and remember your setup:

• Your Plex server URL
• Your Plex authentication token
• Your channel and bundle preferences

This information stays on your device unless you explicitly choose to share it (for example, by emailing support).

Services the app connects to

• Your Plex Media Server on your local network
• plex.tv for initial authentication (this is Plex's system, not ours)
• TMDB (The Movie Database) to improve channel accuracy with metadata like keywords and genres
• A Supabase database to cache enrichment data so it doesn't need to be re-fetched every time

When the app uses TMDB and Supabase for enrichment and caching, it uses media identifiers and metadata needed to match items correctly (for example, movie/show identifiers). We do not send your Plex username/password, your Plex library contents, or your viewing history to our systems.

Tracking

Nostalgex does not use tracking across apps and websites for advertising or measurement purposes.

What we don’t do

• We don't collect analytics
• We don't track usage
• We don't serve ads
• We don't use cookies
• We don't create user accounts
• We don't sell personal information

Authentication

Nostalgex uses Plex's own authentication system. Your Plex credentials are handled entirely by Plex. We never see your username or password. The auth token Plex provides is stored locally on your Apple TV using standard device storage.

Data retention

Because we do not collect personal information, we do not maintain personal data for retention purposes. Data stored on-device remains until you remove the app, reset the app, or clear device storage.

Your choices

• You can remove locally stored data by uninstalling Nostalgex from your Apple TV.
• If you contact support, you can choose what information you share in your message.

Children's privacy

We don't collect data from anyone, including children.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, we'll update it here with a new effective date. Given that we collect nothing, changes are unlikely.
