This policy covers ciniq for Android TV and Google TV, published by Labham LLC. There is no account, no sign-in, and no ciniq server. The Apple version has its own policy, because it does slightly different things.
Last updated 15 September 2026
Your ratings, the films you have looked at, and any watch history you import are written to a database on the television itself. The recommendation engine runs there too — the whole film canon ships inside the app, so choosing tonight's film needs no connection at all.
None of it is sent anywhere. Labham LLC has no copy of your ratings and no way to obtain one. This version does not sync to Google Drive, to iCloud, or to any other service.
When a film card shows where something is playing, the app asks Watchmode, a streaming availability service, at api.watchmode.com. The request carries the film's title, its year, and a two-letter country code — the region set in Settings, which starts as your TV's own.
It carries nothing about you: no name, no email, no device or advertising identifier, no account, and no indication of what you have rated or watched. Watchmode cannot tell one ciniq viewer from another. What they do with the request is covered by their policy at watchmode.com.
That is the only network request the app makes.
No usage measurement, no session tracking, no crash or performance reporting.
No ads and no advertising SDKs. Nothing profiles you, here or across other apps.
Nothing to sign up for, so there is no name, email, or password to hold.
Nothing is sold, rented, or shared with anyone — there is nothing collected to sell.
The app can read a backup file of your ratings and history from the phone version. Those files go wherever you put them, and they contain your ratings, so treat one as you would any personal file. They pass through no service of ours.
ciniq is not directed at children, and it collects no personal information from anyone, of any age.
Uninstalling the app removes its database and everything in it. There is nothing stored elsewhere to request, correct, or erase — a request we could not act on even if you made one, because the data never reaches us.
If this policy changes, the date above changes with it, and the current version is always the one at this address.
