Namma TV Shimoga

Privacy Policy

Effective date: 20 October 2026 · Last updated: 20 October 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how Inklyft (“we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you use the Namma TV Shimoga mobile and Android TV application (Android package name com.inklyft.nammatv) and related services (the “App”).

1. Who we are

Namma TV Shimoga is a live streaming application that delivers channel content over the internet. The App is operated by Inklyft.

Contact for privacy questions: privacy@inklyft.com

2. Information we collect

Depending on how you use the App, we may process the following categories of data:

• App and device information. Basic technical data such as app version, operating system, device type, and anonymous or pseudonymous session identifiers used to operate features like live viewer counts and configuration.
• Usage and presence data. When you watch a live stream, the App may send short-lived presence / heartbeat signals (for example a session ID and timestamp) to our backend so we can show approximate concurrent viewer counts. These signals are not used to build a personal profile of your viewing history.
• Configuration data. The App fetches remote configuration (such as the live stream URL) from Firebase Remote Config. That process may include an app instance identifier required by the configuration service.
• Network and streaming data. To play live video, your device connects to our streaming servers. Standard network logs (IP address, request timing, error codes) may be processed by hosting or streaming providers as part of delivering the service.
• Account data. The App does not currently require you to create a user account with a name, email, or password. If we add sign-in later, we will update this Policy and request any additional consent required by law.

We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal information (such as government IDs, health data, or precise continuous location) through the App.

3. How we use information

We use the information described above to:

• Provide, maintain, and improve live streaming and related App features;
• Fetch and apply remote configuration (for example the current stream URL);
• Estimate concurrent viewers and keep the service reliable;
• Diagnose crashes, buffering, and other technical issues;
• Enforce our Terms & Conditions and protect the service from abuse; and
• Comply with applicable legal obligations.

4. Legal bases (where applicable)

If you are in a region that requires a legal basis for processing (such as the EEA/UK), we rely on: (a) performance of a contract (providing the App you requested); (b) our legitimate interests in operating a secure, reliable streaming service; and (c) consent where we specifically ask for it.

5. Sharing of information

We may share information with:

• Service providers. Infrastructure and platform providers that help us run the App, including Google Firebase (Remote Config, Firestore / database services) and streaming / hosting partners that deliver the live video feed.
• Legal and safety. Authorities or other parties when required by law, or when necessary to protect users, our rights, or the integrity of the service.
• Business transfers. In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, subject to appropriate confidentiality protections.

We do not sell your personal information.

6. Data retention

Live viewer presence records are short-lived and are designed to expire or be removed when you leave the stream or after a brief inactivity window. Technical logs retained by our providers are kept only as long as reasonably needed for security, debugging, and legal compliance, then deleted or anonymized.

7. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information processed through the App. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure; please use the App on trusted devices and networks when possible.

8. Children’s privacy

The App is not directed at children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your country). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us and we will take appropriate steps to delete it.

9. International transfers

Our service providers may process data in countries other than yours (including the United States and India). Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards offered by those providers.

10. Your rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your personal information, or to object to certain processing. To exercise these rights, email privacy@inklyft.com. You may also lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

11. Third-party links and content

Live streams and linked content may originate from third parties. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies. We are not responsible for third-party sites or services.

12. Changes to this Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version at this URL and revise the “Last updated” date. Continued use of the App after changes means you accept the updated Policy, except where additional consent is required by law.
