Cinemoto ("we", "our", or "us") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you use the Cinemoto mobile application (the "App") and related support pages.
1. Summary
- Cinemoto is a local-first screening journal. Your screening records, notes, and summaries are stored on your device.
- We do not require an account to use the App.
- The App may fetch movie metadata and posters from The Movie Database (TMDb) when you search or browse titles.
- The App may show advertisements through Unity LevelPlay (IronSource). Personalized ads that use IDFA require your permission.
- We do not sell your personal information.
2. Information We Collect
2.1 Information you provide
- Screening content: Titles, venues, schedules, pre-watch notes, watch snapshots, scores, feelings, tags, and other text you enter in the App.
- Optional photos: If you choose a photo from your library as cover art, that image stays on your device for the related screening record.
- Support communications: If you email us, we receive the content of your message and your email address.
2.2 Information collected automatically
- Device and app data: Basic technical information needed to run the App on your device (such as OS version and app version) may be available locally for diagnostics you choose to include when contacting support.
2.3 Advertising data (IDFA & LevelPlay)
When ads are shown, LevelPlay (IronSource) and its advertising partners may collect or receive:
- Advertising identifier (IDFA): Only if you allow tracking through Apple’s App Tracking Transparency (ATT) prompt.
- Other device-level signals used to deliver, measure, and prevent fraud in ads (such as device type, OS version, IP address, approximate location derived from IP, and ad interaction events).
Your screening records, notes, snapshots, and summaries are not sent to LevelPlay or its ad partners.
Local-first storage
Screening sessions and notes are stored on your device. Deleting the App or clearing its data removes that content from the device unless you have otherwise backed it up yourself.
3. How We Use Information
- To provide screening planning, watch timing, snapshots, and post-watch summaries.
- To show optional reminders for planned screenings (if you grant notification permission).
- To respond to support requests you send by email.
- To improve reliability of the App based on feedback you choose to share.
- To display and measure in-app advertisements through LevelPlay (IronSource).
4. Third-Party Services
TMDb — Disclaimer & Attribution
Cinemoto uses the TMDb (The Movie Database) API to load title details, posters, ratings, and synopses when you search or browse movies. Search queries and related request parameters may be processed by TMDb under their own terms and privacy policy. We do not upload your private notes or screening summaries to TMDb.
Please note: Cinemoto uses the TMDb API but is not endorsed or certified by TMDb. All movie-related metadata and images are the property of their respective owners.
TMDb website: https://www.themoviedb.org/
LevelPlay (IronSource) — Advertising
Cinemoto uses Unity LevelPlay (IronSource) to show in-app ads. LevelPlay may load ads from other networks it mediates. Those partners operate under their own privacy policies.
LevelPlay and its partners may process device and advertising data to deliver ads, measure performance, and prevent fraud. They act as independent service providers for that advertising data.

5. IDFA & App Tracking Transparency
You choose whether ads can use IDFA
On iOS, Cinemoto may ask for permission through Apple’s App Tracking Transparency prompt before using the Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) to measure ad performance and reduce repetitive ads.
- If you allow tracking: LevelPlay and advertising partners may use your IDFA and related device signals to personalize ads and measure campaigns.
- If you deny tracking: The App will not use IDFA for tracking. Ads may still appear, but they may be less personalized.
- Change later: iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
6. Permissions
- Photo Library: Optional. Used only if you pick a photo as cover art.
- Notifications: Optional. Used for screening reminders and wrap-up cues you enable.
- Tracking (IDFA): Optional. Used only if you allow it, so LevelPlay can measure ads and limit repetition. The App still works if you decline.
7. Data Retention
Content you create remains on your device until you delete the related records or remove the App. Support emails are retained only as long as needed to respond and operate support.
8. Children’s Privacy
The App is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided information through support email, contact us and we will delete it.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do. Continued use of the App after an update means you accept the revised policy.
