Privacy Policy

Last updated: 31st January 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how Smart Remote (“we / us / our”) collects, uses, and protects information from users of Smart Remote mobile applications (iOS, Android) and website smartremote.live (“Service”).

  1. Data Controller / Contact Information

Smart Remote
Address: Jaipur, Rajasthan, India
Contact email: support@smartremote.live

(or your actual support email)

  1. Information We Collect
  • Device & usage data: When you use the app, we may collect device identifiers (e.g. mobile advertising ID), device model, operating system version, network metadata (local IP address), and app usage analytics. This helps us understand app performance and usage patterns.
  • Analytics data: We use third-party analytics services (e.g. Firebase, and Google Analytics) to measure how the app is used, detect crashes or performance issues, and improve functionality. 
  • Payment information: To facilitate in-app purchases (e.g. one-match ad-free service), we integrate a secure third-party payment gateway. For example, we support Razorpay. We do not store full payment credentials; sensitive payment data is handled by the payment gateway according to their own privacy and security practices.

We do not collect or store any personally identifiable information (PII) such as name, email, phone number, address, profile pictures, etc., unless you explicitly provide them (e.g. contacting support).

  1. Use of Information

We use collected data only for:

  • Enabling core functionality: connecting to your Smart TV over your local network, remote control operations, ad detection, mute/unmute, volume control.
  • Improving and debugging the app’s performance, stability, and user experience.
  • Analytics and usage statistics to measure and optimize app usage.
  • Processing secure payments and purchase transactions (via payment gateway).

We do not use the data for marketing, advertising profiling, or sell/share it with third parties for advertising.

  1. Cookies, Tracking & Identifiers

Our website and mobile apps may use cookies, local-storage, or similar technologies (e.g. device identifiers) for analytics and functionality (for example, to remember user preferences, version info, and session management).

You may opt out of non-essential cookies or disable analytics tracking using the device settings or in-app controls (if provided).

  1. Data Retention and Deletion

We retain usage logs and analytics data only as long as needed to support app functionality, performance monitoring, and debugging. We do not store personal data by default.
If you wish to have any data deleted (for example, usage logs tied to device identifiers), please contact us at support@smartremote.live

— we will respond within a reasonable timeframe.

  1. Security Measures

We implement standard security practices to protect data, including encryption in transit (TLS) for any data exchanged with servers/gateways, secure payment integration via a trusted payment provider, and minimizing storage of sensitive data.

  1. User Rights & Transparency

You have the right to request information about what data we store, request deletion of data, or ask questions about our privacy practices. Contact us at support@smartremote.live

We may update our Privacy Policy as needed, for example, when we add new features, comply with legal changes, or integrate new services. The “Last updated” date will reflect the most recent version. We encourage you to check this page periodically.
