Privacy policy
Effective October 22, 2026. Applies to the Rewind app for iPhone and iPad (Rewind: Movie & TV Tracker, formerly PixelFlix) and the RewindClan community at rewindclan.com, both made by Damobo.
The short version. You can use Rewind without an account, and then your library stays on your phone. If you join RewindClan, we keep your account details and a backup of your library so it comes back on any phone, and the things you post in the community are public. No ads, no tracking, no selling your data. Delete your account in the app at any time.
1. Without an account
Everything you create is kept in a database on your device: the first name you optionally enter, your favorite genres and tastes, shelves and watchlists, your Collection, watch history, ratings, private notes, episode progress, and cached posters and film details. We can't see any of it.
2. With a RewindClan account
An account is optional. It backs up your library and lets you take part in the community. We store:
- Account details: your username, email address, and a securely hashed password, or, if you use Sign in with Apple, the identifier Apple gives us (which can be a private relay email). For Apple sign-ins we also keep a token from Apple, used only to unlink your Apple ID when you delete your account.
- Profile: display name, bio, profile photo, banner color, your favorite four, and the tastes you picked when you set up the app.
- Library backup: for each film or show in your library: whether it's on your watchlist or in your Collection, watch count and date, rating, episode progress, and your private note. Notes and the library backup are never shown to anyone else.
- Community activity: posts, comments, votes, reactions, follows, club memberships, and activity cards (e.g. "watched Alien") if "Share what I watch" is on. You can turn that off in Settings.
- Safety records: reports you make, people you block, and moderation actions.
- Security: the IP address you signed up from and the one you last used, sign-in session tokens, and password-reset links (single use, valid one hour). We use these to keep accounts safe and to stop spam and abuse.
- Notifications: if you turn on notifications, your phone's push token, so we can send replies, follows and reactions through Apple's push service.
What other people can see
Your username, display name, photo, bio, banner, favorite four, followers and following, and everything you post, comment, react with or share as an activity card. Your email, library backup, notes, ratings you haven't shared, and IP addresses are never shown.
3. Services that help Rewind work
Some features need information from other services. We don't send your name, email or account with these requests.
| Service | What is sent | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Rewind AI service (our own, hosted on Cloudflare, using Google Gemini) | The text you type into Ask Rewind or a vibe; titles you've watched, saved or passed on so picks aren't repeated; a film's title and year; a random install ID the app creates; and, for Plus, Apple's proof of your purchase. | AI picks, recaps, watch orders and film extras, and counting free daily picks. |
| TVmaze, TheTVDB, Wikipedia | Film and series titles. | Seasons, episodes, details and poster art. |
| RewindClan catalogue (rewindclan.com) | Titles you search for or open. | A shared catalogue of film details and backup posters, so titles load fast and keep their art. |
| Apple | Handled by Apple: purchases, Sign in with Apple, push notifications, and the top-movies chart. | Rewind Plus, signing in, notifications, the "Hot right now" row. |
| YouTube | Opens when you tap Play trailer. | Trailers. Google's privacy policy applies from there. |
The RewindClan server is hosted by hosting.com and our domain uses Cloudflare. Account emails (welcome, password reset, "password changed") are sent from our own mail server. We don't send marketing email.
4. Purchases
Rewind Plus is bought through Apple. We never see your payment details. The app checks your purchase with Apple to unlock Plus.
5. What we don't do
- No advertising, ad identifiers or ad networks.
- No analytics or tracking SDKs, and no tracking you across other apps or websites.
- No selling or sharing of your personal information.
- No access to your contacts, location, microphone or camera. If you add a profile photo, the app only reads the one picture you choose.
6. How long we keep it, and deleting it
- Delete your account in the app: Settings, your RewindClan account, Delete account. This immediately erases your email, profile, photo, library backup, tastes, push tokens, sessions and IP addresses, removes you from clubs, deletes your follows, reactions and notifications, and unlinks Sign in with Apple. Posts and comments you made stay in their discussions but are shown as from a deleted account, so conversations still make sense. Delete any you want gone first, or ask us to.
- Without an account: Settings, "Erase all shelves & history", or delete the app.
- Want a copy of your data, or deletion by email? Write to support@rewindclan.com from your account's email and we'll reply within 30 days.
7. Community safety
Posts can be reported, and people can be blocked. Our moderators review reports and may remove content or suspend accounts that break the community rules. A filter blocks some offensive words before they're posted.
8. Children
Rewind and RewindClan are for people 13 and older. We don't knowingly collect information from children under 13. If you think a child has an account, email us and we'll delete it.
9. Your rights
Depending on where you live (for example in the EU, UK or California), you may have rights to access, correct, delete or export your data, or to object to how it's used. Most of this you can do in the app; for anything else, email us. You can also complain to your local data protection authority.
10. Changes
If we change how Rewind handles data, we'll update this page and its date, and mention material changes in the app's release notes.
