Privacy policy

Last updated: 2026-11-03

In short

The SuperTube apps (es.gestal.supertube for phones and tablets, es.gestal.supertube.tv for Android TV) and this website don't collect any personal data for the developer. There are no SuperTube accounts, no analytics, no advertising and no crash reports. SuperTube has no server of its own.

Who is responsible

Juan Gestal, developer of SuperTube. Contact: juan@gestal.es. If you write to us, we only use your email to answer you and delete it when the conversation is over.

Data that stays on your device

To work, the app keeps on your device: your settings, favorites and folders, recent searches, playback positions, downloaded files (in Movies/SuperTube and Music/SuperTube) and, only if you sign in, the session of your Google account. None of this is sent to us. You can delete it by clearing the app data or uninstalling it. Backups are files you export yourself or, if you choose it, copies saved in your own Google Drive.

Services the app connects to

To show videos, SuperTube connects directly from your device to these services. They receive your IP address and the data needed for each request, and they process it under their own policies; the developer doesn't receive any of it:

• YouTube and Google: videos, thumbnails, search, comments, sign-in and the features of your account (subscriptions, history, playlists), and the optional Google Drive backup. When you are signed in, Google may record your activity in your account according to your settings there. Google Privacy Policy.
• SponsorBlock and DeArrow (sponsor.ajay.app): the video identifier, to get the sponsor segments and the community titles and thumbnails, when these features are on.
• Return YouTube Dislike (returnyoutubedislikeapi.com): the video identifier, to show the like and dislike counts in the player (it can be turned off in the player settings).
• GitHub: the update check and the download of new versions, and a configuration file used by the video engine. GitHub Privacy Statement.
• Images for some menus: on Android TV, links are shown as QR codes generated by api.qrserver.com (it receives the link), and country flags may be loaded from flagcdn.com.

Permissions

Internet access to play videos; notifications for media controls and downloads; access to storage only to save downloads and backups where Android requires it; and the microphone only if you use voice search.

This website

These are static pages with no cookies, no analytics and no resources from other sites. The hosting server may keep standard access logs (IP address, date and page requested) for security, for a limited time.

Children

SuperTube is not directed to children. The content comes from YouTube, which has its own age rules.

Your rights

As we don't keep your data, there is nothing we can show, correct or delete. For your data at YouTube, use the tools in your Google account. You can also complain to your data protection authority (in Spain, the AEPD).

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version will be published on this page with its date.
