1. Introduction
Welcome to Vyla ("we," "us," or "our"). We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our website and services (collectively, the "Service"). By using the Service, you agree to the terms of this policy.
2. Information We Collect
We collect information that is necessary to provide and improve our Service. This includes:
- Account Information: When you create an account, we collect your chosen username and password. We generate an email address for you (e.g., `username@vyla.vercel.app`) solely for the purpose of account management within our authentication system. We do not use this email for communication.
- User-Generated Content: We store the lists you create, including your Favorites, Watch Later list, and Watch History. This includes media titles, IDs, and your watch progress.
- Technical Information: We automatically collect your IP address for security purposes, such as rate limiting login attempts and CAPTCHA verification, to protect the Service from abuse.
- Cookies and Local Storage: We use browser cookies and local storage to manage your session (keeping you logged in) and remember your preferences, such as your chosen media player source.
3. How We Use Your Information
Your information is used for the following purposes:
- To Provide the Service: To authenticate you, maintain your account, and save your personalized lists and watch history across sessions.
- For Security and Stability: To protect our Service from malicious activity, prevent spam, and ensure the platform remains available.
- To Improve the Service: To understand how users interact with Vyla, which helps us to improve features and functionality.
4. Data Sharing and Third-Party Services
We do not sell your personal information. We only share information with the following essential third-party service providers:
- Supabase: We use Supabase for our backend infrastructure, which includes user authentication and database hosting. Your account information and user-generated lists are stored securely with Supabase.
- Cloudflare (Turnstile): We use Cloudflare Turnstile for CAPTCHA verification during signup to prevent automated bots. This service may process your IP address to verify you are human.
- Upstash (Redis): We use Upstash for rate limiting to prevent brute-force attacks on our login and signup systems. This service temporarily processes your IP address to count requests.
5. Your Data Rights and Choices
You have control over your personal information. You can review and modify your Favorites and Watch Later lists at any time. You also have the ability to clear your Watch History from within your account settings.
If you wish to permanently delete your account and all associated data, please contact us through our official Discord server, and we will process your request.
6. Data Security
We take the security of your data seriously and implement reasonable measures to protect it. Passwords are encrypted, and we rely on the robust security infrastructure of our service provider, Supabase. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
7. Children's Privacy
Our Service is not intended for individuals under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that we have collected such information, we will take steps to delete it.
