1. Scope
This Privacy Policy explains how 1Anime collects, uses, stores, and shares information when you use the official website at 1anime.app and related services.
This policy applies to 1Anime features such as accounts, sync, recommendations, community tools, moderation, support, and advertising used to keep the service free.
2. Information We Collect
We may collect account and profile data such as username, display name, email address, avatar, profile settings, and authentication identifiers.
We may collect activity data such as watch or read progress, ratings, lists, bookmarks, comments, likes, reports, and moderation records.
We may collect technical data such as IP address, approximate location, device and browser information, app version, log events, session timestamps, cookies, and local storage values.
We may receive limited data from third-party integrations you choose to connect, such as tracker account data needed for sync.
3. How We Use Information
We use information to provide accounts, sync, recommendations, playback features, community features, moderation, support, security, and abuse prevention.
We use technical and usage information to diagnose outages, improve reliability, develop features, protect the service, and show non-intrusive ads in the free experience.
We may use contact information for transactional notices such as security messages, important service updates, or policy changes.
4. Cookies and Local Storage
1Anime uses cookies, local storage, and similar technologies for authentication, preferences, security, performance, sync, and ad delivery or measurement.
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking certain storage may break features such as sign-in, settings, playback preferences, or sync.
5. Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell personal information and do not share personal information for third-party direct marketing.
We may share information with service providers that help operate 1Anime, including hosting, security, monitoring, authentication, support, advertising, and payment providers if future official support options are launched.
We may disclose information when required by law, legal process, safety needs, abuse investigation, or enforcement of our terms.
6. Third-Party Sources and Links
1Anime may link to, embed, index, or interact with third-party services and non-affiliated media sources. Those services are controlled by their own operators.
Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, not this Privacy Policy.
7. Retention
We retain information only as long as needed for service operation, security, dispute resolution, legal compliance, accounting, or legitimate business purposes.
Account information is generally retained while your account is active. Operational logs are retained for security and reliability windows and may then be deleted or de-identified.
8. Security
We use technical and organizational safeguards such as encrypted transport, access controls, monitoring, and incident response procedures.
No transmission or storage system is completely secure, so we continue improving controls and encourage users to protect their account credentials.
9. Your Choices and Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, export, object to, or restrict certain processing of your personal information.
You can adjust browser storage settings, account settings, and connected integrations. Some choices may limit functionality.
10. Children
1Anime is not directed to children under the age required by local law to provide valid consent.
If you believe a child submitted personal information in violation of applicable law, contact official support so we can review and take appropriate action.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes may be announced on 1anime.app, through changelogs, or in the official Discord.
