Lumen — Privacy Policy

Overview

Lumen is a player for IPTV services you already subscribe to. You connect your own Xtream Codes or M3U provider; Lumen does not host, provide, sell, or bundle any live channels, movies, or series. This policy explains what Lumen collects and where it goes.

Your Provider Credentials

Your IPTV provider's server address, username, password, and any M3U playlist URL are stored only in your device's Keychain. We never see them and never send them to our own servers — they are used solely to talk directly to the provider you configured, exactly the way any player app would.

Information We Collect

Lumen has no accounts and does not ask for your name, email, phone number, or physical address. What we do collect:

• Anonymous usage analytics — an anonymous, randomly generated identifier plus event names (e.g. which screen was opened), the app version, and the bundle identifier are sent to our analytics endpoint (searchads.tools). No provider credentials, channel names, or content you watch are included in these events.
• Apple Search Ads attribution — if you installed Lumen via an Apple Search Ads campaign, Apple's own attribution token is forwarded to the same anonymous endpoint so we can measure which campaigns are effective. This is Apple's standard attribution mechanism and contains no personal information.
• Subscription status — Lumen Pro purchases are managed by RevenueCat using an anonymous, randomly generated subscriber identifier. We never see your payment details; those are handled entirely by Apple's StoreKit.
• Bug reports (only if you send one) — if you choose to submit a bug report from inside the app, the description you write and an optional screenshot are sent to our support inbox (wishly.tools) so we can fix the issue. This only happens when you trigger it yourself.

None of this data is sold or used for advertising.

iCloud Sync

If you're signed in to iCloud, Lumen can sync your favorites, watch history, and app settings across your own devices using Apple's CloudKit. This data is stored in your personal iCloud account — we do not have access to it, and it is never sent to our servers.

Third-Party Metadata & Services

• TMDB — Lumen looks up posters, artwork, and descriptions for the movies and series in your provider's catalog from The Movie Database (TMDB), matched by title. No personal information is sent with these lookups.
• Trakt (optional) — if you choose to enable Trakt scrobbling, you sign in directly with Trakt and Lumen reports your watch activity to your own Trakt account. This is entirely opt-in and can be disabled at any time in Settings.

Local Storage

Lumen stores your provider's channel/movie/series catalog cache, program guide (EPG) data, watch progress, and app preferences on your device to make the app fast and usable offline. Deleting a provider from Lumen removes its cached catalog, EPG, history, and favorites from your device.

Children

Lumen does not knowingly collect data from children. Because Lumen only plays content from a provider you supply, parents are responsible for the content available through their own IPTV subscription.

Your Rights

Because Lumen has no account system, most of your data lives on your device and in your own Keychain/iCloud — removing a provider or deleting the app removes it. For questions about the anonymous analytics or attribution data described above, contact us below.
