Privacy Policy
Binge Cast doesn't collect, store, or transmit any personal information to us by default. The app has no user accounts, no analytics, and no advertising. Crash reporting is available but off by default โ see below.
What the app does over the network
When you subscribe to a podcast, Binge Cast fetches the RSS feed and audio files directly from whatever server the show's publisher hosts them on. Those connections go from your device to the publisher โ we don't see them, proxy them, or log them.
When you search for a podcast, the search query is sent to Apple's public iTunes Search API. That request goes directly from your device to Apple.
What stays on your device
Your subscriptions, playback positions, downloaded episode files, and any other settings live only on the iPhone where you installed Binge Cast. Nothing is uploaded.
Crash reports (opt-in, off by default)
Binge Cast can optionally send anonymous crash reports to help us diagnose problems. It's turned off by default. If you turn it on in Settings โ About โ Send crash reports, the app uses Sentry to collect crash data when something goes wrong.
A crash report includes: the stack trace, the device model, the iOS version, and the app version and build number. It does not include your IP address, Apple ID, location, podcast listening history, or any other personal data. You can turn crash reporting back off at any time from the same Settings row, and no further events will be sent.
Data already received by Sentry is retained per their policies (30 days on the free tier we use).
Children
Because we don't collect data by default, we don't collect data from children either. The app is generally suitable for all ages, but podcast content itself is whatever the shows you subscribe to choose to publish.
Changes
If this policy ever changes โ for example, if a future version of the app adds analytics โ this page will be updated with the new terms and the date above.
