Privacy policy
Last updated: 18 August 2026
Terms of use and subscription
- Gecko IPTV is a player: the app does not provide, host or sell any content, channel or subscription. You use your own credentials, obtained from your IPTV provider.
- 15-day trial, no credit card, counted from the first launch of the app.
- Gecko Premium: €9.90 incl. VAT per year (website price; the price shown inside the app is the one from the corresponding store). Unlocks movies and series on demand — live channels stay free.
- Automatic renewal: the subscription renews automatically at the end of each period unless cancelled at least 24 hours before it ends.
- Cancelling, depending on where you subscribed: in the App Store or Google Play subscription settings if you purchased inside the app, or from the Premium page if you paid on the web. Access remains open until the end of the period you paid for.
- Full details in the terms of use.
This policy explains what data the Gecko IPTV app processes, for what purpose, and with whom it is shared. We keep collection to what the service strictly needs to work.
1. Data we process
Playlist credentials
To play your content, the app stores your subscription details (server address, username, Xtream password). They are kept on your device and synchronised to our servers (Google Firebase) so you can manage your playlists from a browser or another device. They are only used to reconnect you to your provider.
Device identifier
A technical identifier specific to your device links your playlists, your management code and your subscription to that device. It does not allow us to identify you personally.
PIN protection
If you protect a playlist with a PIN, it is never sent to our servers: it is kept locally, hashed, on your device only.
Subscription
When you subscribe to Gecko Premium, we keep the state of your subscription attached to your device identifier: status, expiry date, purchase channel (App Store, Google Play or web payment) and transaction reference. No payment card data passes through or is stored on our servers.
Diagnostics and usage
To improve stability and experience, the app uses Google Firebase Crashlytics (crash reports) and Analytics (anonymous usage statistics). This may include the device model, system version, app version and technical information about incidents.
2. Purposes
- Connect you to your provider's IPTV service;
- Store and synchronise your playlists across your devices and the web;
- Manage your trial and subscription, and verify payments;
- Keep the app working, secure and stable;
- Diagnose failures and improve the product.
3. Sharing with third parties
We do not sell your data. It may pass through:
- Google Firebase (hosting, database, diagnostics) — our technical processor, acting on our behalf.
- Stripe — payment provider for subscriptions bought on the web. Stripe collects and processes payment information itself, under its own privacy policy; we have no access to it.
- Apple and Google — when the subscription is bought inside the app, the purchase receipt is sent to the relevant store for verification, in order to activate your access.
- Your IPTV provider — when the app contacts the server whose address you entered, your requests go to it directly. That provider is an independent third party we do not control, with its own privacy policy.
We also use internal technical notifications to monitor the service (new device, subscription activation, errors). They contain a device identifier and are only accessible to the publisher.
4. Retention
Your playlists are kept until you delete them. You can remove them at any time from the app or the management page; deleting removes them from your device and from our servers. Subscription state is kept as long as needed to run the service and to meet accounting obligations. Diagnostic reports follow Firebase retention periods.
5. Security
Exchanges with our servers use encrypted connections (HTTPS). Access to playlist management relies on a code tied to your device. As no method is infallible, we recommend keeping your management code confidential.
6. Your choices
- Delete a playlist (and its credentials) at any time;
- Manage or cancel your subscription from your store or the Premium page;
- Uninstall the app to erase local data;
- Contact us with any question about your data.
7. Children
Gecko IPTV is not directed at children and does not knowingly collect data about them.
8. Changes
This policy may be updated. The date at the top shows the latest revision. Significant changes will be signalled in the app or on this page.
