Privacy Policy
Your privacy matters. This page explains what we collect, why we collect it, and the rights you have under the GDPR and other applicable data-protection laws.
01 Introduction
Myflixer (“we,” “us,” “our”) operates this website as an aggregator and discovery platform for movies and TV shows. We do not host any media files; we only link to content available on third-party services. This Privacy Policy describes how we handle information about visitors and complies with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679), the UK GDPR, and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).
By using Myflixer, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this policy.
02 Data we collect
We collect the minimum information needed to operate and improve the site:
IP address, browser type and version, device type, operating system, screen resolution, and referring URL.
Pages visited, search queries on the site, time spent, click paths, and timestamps.
Session identifiers, preferences (e.g. theme), and analytics cookies — see Section 5.
Information you choose to send us — e.g. an email address when contacting support or filing a DMCA notice.
We do not require account registration, and we do not collect names, payment details, or government identifiers.
03 How we use it
- To deliver and maintain the website and its features.
- To detect, prevent, and respond to abuse, fraud, or technical issues.
- To analyse aggregate usage and improve performance and content discovery.
- To respond to your inquiries, legal notices, or rights requests.
- To comply with legal obligations.
We do not sell your personal data, and we do not use it for automated decision-making with legal effects.
04 Legal basis (GDPR)
Under Article 6 of the GDPR, we rely on the following legal grounds:
- Legitimate interest — for analytics, fraud prevention, and basic service operation, balanced against your privacy interests.
- Consent — for non-essential cookies and any optional tracking, freely given via the consent banner and revocable at any time.
- Legal obligation — when responding to lawful requests or copyright takedown notices.
05 Cookies & tracking
We use cookies in the following categories:
- Strictly necessary — required for the site to function (e.g. theme preference, security).
- Analytics — anonymous aggregate metrics about traffic and usage.
- Functional — saving non-critical preferences.
You can manage or refuse cookies in your browser settings. Disabling strictly-necessary cookies may break parts of the site.
06 Sharing & third parties
We share data only with:
- Hosting and CDN providers — to deliver the site reliably.
- Analytics providers — receiving anonymised or aggregated data only.
- Authorities — when legally compelled by valid legal process.
If a third-party processor transfers data outside the EEA, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses or another approved transfer mechanism under Chapter V GDPR.
07 Data retention
We retain logs and analytics for the shortest period needed for the purposes above — typically:
- Server access logs: up to 30 days.
- Aggregate analytics: up to 14 months.
- DMCA and legal correspondence: up to 5 years (legal retention requirement).

09 Security
We use industry-standard safeguards — TLS encryption in transit, restricted access controls, and regular reviews of our hosting environment. No system is 100% secure; we encourage you to use strong, unique passwords and to keep your browser updated.
