Privacy Policy

Tunerly · Last updated: 24 June 2026

Tunerly is a client app for your own self-hosted tvheadend TV server. Your privacy is simple to describe: Tunerly does not track you and collects no personal data on any server we operate. We do not run any backend.

Data stored on your device

To work, Tunerly stores the following only on your device:

• Server settings — the host, port and options for each tvheadend server you add, kept in the app’s local storage.
• Credentials — your tvheadend username and password are stored securely in the device Keychain. They are sent only to the server you configured, in order to log in.
• App preferences — such as your selected server.

This information never leaves your device except when communicating with the tvheadend server you chose, or when you deliberately transfer a server to another of your devices (see below). Deleting the app removes this data.

Connecting to your server

All channels, electronic program guide (EPG) data, channel logos and recordings come from the tvheadend server you connect to. That server is operated by you, not by us. How that server handles data is governed by your own configuration. Connections use HTTPS/TLS when your server supports it.

Transferring a server between your devices

Tunerly can copy a server configuration from your iPhone to your Apple TV. This happens directly between your devices:

• Add via iPhone uses Apple’s MultipeerConnectivity over your local network, with end-to-end encryption.
• Set Up via Browser runs a temporary local web page on your Apple TV so another device on the same network can submit the server details.

In both cases the data goes only between your own devices on your local network. None of it passes through any server we control.

In-app purchases

Tunerly Pro is sold through Apple’s in-app purchase system. Purchases and receipts are handled by Apple; Tunerly does not receive or store your payment details. Your purchase is validated on your device through Apple’s StoreKit. Please refer to Apple’s Privacy Policy for how Apple processes purchases.

No tracking or analytics

Tunerly contains no third-party analytics, advertising or tracking SDKs. It does not use the Advertising Identifier and does not track you across apps or websites.

Children

Tunerly is not directed at children and does not knowingly collect any information from anyone.

If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page with a new “Last updated” date.
