Privacy Policy – ABAB Cam

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how ABAB Cam (“ABAB Cam”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, and protects information when you use our websites, mobile apps, and related services (the “Service”).

We are committed to handling your information responsibly and in accordance with applicable privacy laws in the United States, and to meeting the requirements of major app stores (including the Apple App Store and Google Play). This Policy is not legal advice, but is designed to be clear and transparent about our practices.

By using the Service, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.

2. What We Do

ABAB Cam is a discovery and aggregation platform for publicly available webcams and livestreams. We:

• Display and organize links or embeds to third-party streams.
• Do not own or operate most cameras or streams.
• Do not record or store the video content from those third-party streams on our own servers, except for transient caching that may be technically necessary for performance.

3. Information We Collect

We may collect the following types of information when you use the Service:

a) Information you provide directly

• Contact information (such as email address) if you reach out to us or subscribe to updates.
• Any information you include when you send us feedback or support requests.

b) Automatically collected information

When you access the Service, we may automatically collect:

• IP address
• Device information (device type, operating system, browser type, language)
• Approximate location (country/region) inferred from IP, where allowed
• Usage data (pages visited, interactions with the interface, time spent, clicks, referring URLs)
• App version and crash logs

We use this information to operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Service.

c) Cookies and similar technologies

We may use cookies, local storage, or similar technologies to:

• Remember your preferences (such as language or theme)
• Maintain session information
• Measure usage and performance

You can usually control cookies through your browser settings, but disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the Service.

4. Third-Party Services

We may use third-party services such as:

• Analytics providers (for example, privacy-friendly analytics tools or mainstream analytics services)
• Content delivery networks
• Video platforms (such as YouTube or others)

These third-party services may collect information about you in accordance with their own privacy policies, which we do not control. We encourage you to review their policies when interacting with their content.

In particular, when you view an embedded video (for example, from YouTube), that provider may collect data such as your IP address, device information, and viewing behavior in line with their own terms.

5. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Provide, operate, and maintain the Service.
• Improve and personalize the user experience.
• Monitor usage, performance, and security.
• Communicate with you, including responding to inquiries and support requests.
• Detect, prevent, and address technical issues or misuse.
• Comply with legal obligations.

We do not sell your personal information.

6. Legal Bases (for users in the EU/EEA, where applicable)

Where European data protection laws apply, we rely on the following legal bases to process personal data:

• Performance of a contract (providing the Service you request).
• Legitimate interests (for example, improving the Service, preventing abuse, and ensuring security).
• Consent (for certain optional cookies or communications where required by law).

7. Data Sharing

We may share your information with:

• Service providers and vendors who help us operate the Service (for example, hosting, analytics, and security providers).
• Professional advisers (such as lawyers or accountants) where necessary.
• Authorities or other parties when required by law, regulation, legal process, or to protect our rights, users, or the public.

We do not sell your personal data to third parties.

8. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to:

• Provide and maintain the Service.
• Comply with legal, tax, or regulatory obligations.
• Resolve disputes and enforce our agreements.

When information is no longer needed, we will delete or anonymize it in a reasonable manner.

9. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.

10. Children’s Privacy

The Service is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe that a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to delete such information.

If you are in a jurisdiction with a higher age of consent for data processing, you must comply with that higher age requirement.
