This Privacy Policy explains how Bayon TV ("we", "our", or "us") collects, uses, shares, and protects your personal information when you use our mobile application ("App") on Android and iOS devices. By using the App, you agree to this policy.
1. Information We Collect
1.1 Information You Provide
- Account Information: Name, email address, phone number, and profile picture when you register or update your profile.

- Advertising Identifiers: On iOS, we collect the Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) — with your permission via the App Tracking Transparency prompt. On Android, we collect the Google Advertising ID (AAID). These are used to serve personalized advertisements via Google AdMob.
- Crash and Performance Data: Crash logs, error reports, and app performance data collected automatically in release builds.
- Push Notification Token: Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) token used to deliver push notifications to your device.
- Network Information: Wi-Fi or mobile network status used to optimize streaming quality.

We use Google AdMob to display advertisements in the App. AdMob may use advertising identifiers (IDFA on iOS, AAID on Android) to show you personalized ads based on your interests.

AdMob's data practices are governed by Google's Privacy Policy.
