Privacy policy

This policy covers the SAHRA Player app. It is the same text the app shows in Settings → Privacy.

SAHRA Player is a media player. It does not provide channels or content.

• Your playlists, My List, watch history and settings are stored only on this device.
• Server addresses, usernames and passwords are kept in the device's encrypted secure storage (the Android Keystore on Android devices) and are never written to logs.
• The app connects to the servers in your playlists and guide addresses. When it opens, it also asks the SAHRA server for update notices and messages from the SAHRA team, sending the app version, the device type (phone, tablet or TV), the app language and the hashed device ID used for the free trial (for trial reminders). SAHRA keeps only totals of how often each message was shown, opened or dismissed.
• If you choose “Open in another player”, the stream address, which can include your provider username and password, is passed to the app you pick.
• To check this device's free trial or Premium, the app sends the SAHRA server that hashed device ID, a random install ID, the device model and the app version. The server keeps them with the trial dates and the time of the last check, so each phone, tablet or TV gets one free trial.
• The app sends no analytics and no advertising identifiers.
• The parental PIN is stored only as a salted hash.
• Uninstalling the app removes everything it stored.

SAHRA accounts

If you use a SAHRA account (optional):

• The SAHRA server stores your e-mail address, a hash of your password (or your Google account ID), the devices you sign in on (name, type, last use) and your Premium purchase records from Google Play.
• Every device sends a hashed device ID to check the free trial, so the trial works once per phone, tablet or TV.
• If you turn on notifications from SAHRA on your phone (Settings → Notifications), the server keeps that phone’s notification token, your choices and the app language, and sends the notifications through Google’s Firebase Cloud Messaging. Turning them off or signing out deletes the token.
• If you contact support (Settings → Help & support), the server keeps your messages, the topic, the app language, the app version and the device model and type, linked to your account when you’re signed in. Diagnostics (recent problems in the app, never playlist addresses, logins or what you watch) are sent only if you turn them on. Conversations are deleted 180 days after the last message, when you delete them, or with your account.
• Your playlists, provider logins, channels and watch history are never sent to SAHRA.
• You can delete your account at any time in Settings → Account → Delete account.

Purchases

SAHRA Premium is bought through Google Play. Google processes the payment; SAHRA receives only the purchase record needed to unlock Premium on your account.
