Privacy Policy

Effective date: November 1, 2026 · Last updated: November 1, 2026

selectfeed ("the Service") is an iPhone app for following the YouTube creators you choose and saving videos and articles from around the web. This policy explains what data we collect, how it's used, and how long we keep it.

1. The short version

  • You sign in with Sign in with Apple. We never see your Apple password, and you can choose to hide your email from us.
  • We store what you save: links and their titles, thumbnails and descriptions, your collections, the channels you follow, and your watched, favorite and watch-later marks.
  • If you choose to publish a collection to the Shared tab, that list becomes visible to every user. Nothing else is public.
  • We have no ads, we don't sell your data, and we don't use advertising or cross-app tracking. We don't use analytics SDKs.
  • Subscriptions are processed by Apple; we never see your card details. Purchase state is managed through RevenueCat.
  • You can delete your account and everything stored with it from Profile → Settings → Delete account.

2. Information we collect

2.1 Account information

You sign in with Sign in with Apple. Apple gives us a stable user identifier and, depending on what you choose in Apple's sign-in sheet, your name and either your real email address or a private relay address ("Hide My Email") that forwards to you. We store these in our authentication service, Supabase Auth, together with a random user ID. We never see or store your Apple password.

2.2 Content you save

  • Saved items: the link you save, plus the title, thumbnail address, author or site name, and a short description that we read from the page or from the platform's public embed data. Whether you marked it as favorite, watch later or watched, and the collection name you gave it.
  • Followed channels: the YouTube channel ID, name and picture address of each channel you follow, and the recent videos published by those channels.
  • Reports and blocks: if you report a shared list or block an author, we store which list or author, the reason you picked, and your user ID, so we can review it and hide it for you.
  • Shared lists (only if you publish one): the list name, the saved items in it, and a shortened version of your user ID shown as the author. These are visible to all users until you unpublish them.

We do not store the videos themselves. selectfeed saves links and information about them; videos play from YouTube.

2.3 Purchase information

If you subscribe to Pro, payment is handled entirely by Apple. To activate your plan across devices we process your subscription state (plan, purchase and renewal events) and your user ID through RevenueCat, our subscription-management provider.

2.4 Information handled by your device when you use features

  • Fetching video and page information. When you follow a channel or save a link, your device contacts YouTube, TikTok or the website you saved, to read its title, thumbnail and new videos. Those services see your device's IP address, as with any web request.
  • Playing videos. YouTube videos play in YouTube's embedded player. Google may set cookies and collect data through that player under Google's Privacy Policy and the YouTube Terms of Service. We don't receive that data.

2.5 Automatically collected information

Standard technical information such as app version and operating system version may be used for stability and debugging. We don't collect advertising identifiers.

3. How we use your information

  • To provide the app: showing your feed, library, collections and Watch Later, and keeping them in sync across your devices.
  • To show shared lists that people have chosen to publish.
  • To manage your subscription and unlock Pro features.
  • To respond to support requests you send us by email.

4. Where your data is stored

Your account and saved content are stored on Supabase, our database and authentication provider. Access controls make sure that only you can read or change your own saved items, followed channels and collections. Shared lists you publish can be read by all users, and only you can remove them.

5. Third-party services

We use a small number of service providers to operate selectfeed. Each receives only the data needed for its role:

  • Supabase (authentication & database): your user ID, Apple-provided email (real or private relay) and name if you share them, saved content and shared lists. Privacy policy
  • RevenueCat (subscription management): your user ID and purchase and renewal events. It never receives your saved content or payment card details. Privacy policy
  • Apple App Store (payments): subscription billing is handled entirely by Apple.
  • YouTube / Google (video playback and public channel feeds): see section 2.4.

Some providers process data outside your country (for example, in the United States). We do not sell your personal data, share it with advertisers or data brokers, or disclose it to anyone else except when required by law.

6. Data retention

  • Saved items, collections, followed channels and settings: kept until you delete them in the app or delete your account, at which point they are permanently removed.
  • Shared lists: kept until you unpublish them or delete your account.
  • Account records: your account is removed when you delete it in the app. If you stop using the app without deleting your account, we keep the account until you ask us to remove it.
  • Support emails: kept only as long as needed to handle your request.

7. Your rights and choices

  • Delete individual saved items, collections or followed channels at any time in the app.
  • Unpublish a shared list from its page in the Shared tab.
  • Delete your account entirely from Profile → Settings → Delete account, which permanently removes your data.
  • Email us at any time to ask what we hold about you or to request deletion.

See our Delete Account & Data page for step-by-step instructions.

8. Children's privacy

selectfeed is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.

9. Changes to this policy

If we make material changes to this policy, we'll notify you in the app before they take effect.
