Privacy Policy
Goodstream.net values your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights related to your data.
1. Information We Collect
We collect the following types of data:
- Account data: username, email, password (hashed).
- Usage data: streams you watch, chat messages, analytics.
- Technical data: IP address, browser type, device ID.
2. How We Use Your Data
We use your data to:
- Provide and maintain our services.
- Personalize recommendations and features.
- Monitor and improve platform performance.
- Comply with legal obligations.
3. Sharing of Data
We do not sell your personal information. We may share data with:
- Service providers that help operate Goodstream.net.
- Law enforcement if required by law or subpoena.
4. Cookies and Tracking
We use cookies and similar browser technologies for authentication, security, requested platform functions, preferences, and optional analytics. Optional categories remain off until you make an explicit choice under Goodstream's current strict opt-in policies. Use the Cookie settings control to change your choice, and review the current browser-technology disclosure for provider, purpose, trigger, duration, scope, data elements, and withdrawal details.
Where a trusted coarse location signal is available from an approved Goodstream network source, Goodstream may select a reviewed jurisdiction policy without storing the country, subdivision, IP address, or location history in the privacy-choice record. Missing, untrusted, malformed, or unmapped signals use the strict global fallback. Browser language is not used for jurisdiction selection.
Global Privacy Control is honored for advertising and covered sharing choices and cannot be overridden by a broader stored choice. Goodstream does not currently treat the older Do Not Track signal as consent or an opt-out instruction.
5. Your Rights
Depending on the applicable circumstances, you may request access or a portable copy, correction, deletion, restriction, or objection. Signed-in users with a verified email can use the privacy data request workflow. Submission starts a password-confirmed reviewed request; it does not automatically produce a full account export, remove or suspend an account, schedule account closure, promise a statutory deadline, or determine that a request is legally valid. Goodstream staff must review and manually attest any completed or denied disposition.
6. Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your data.
