Remote for Samsung Smart TVs
Privacy Policy
Effective date: July 24, 2026
1. Who We Are
This Privacy Policy explains how 617SW, LLC("617SW," "we," "us," or "our") handles information in connection with Remote for Samsung Smart TVs (the "App").
2. Summary
The App is designed to work locally with compatible TVs on your network. We do not operate an account system, serve advertising, or use your information to track you across apps or websites.
3. Information Stored on Your Device
To provide the App's features, the App may store the following on your iPhone:
- Saved TV names, network addresses, model information, and room assignments;
- Remote preferences, favorites, and appearance choices;
- Pairing credentials or tokens, stored securely in Apple's Keychain where available.
This information remains on your device unless you delete saved TVs or remove the App.
4. Local Network and TV Communications
The App requests Local Network permission so it can discover and communicate with compatible TVs on the same network. Commands, keyboard text, pairing requests, and related data are sent directly between your iPhone and TV over your local network. We do not receive those communications through our own servers.
5. Voice Features
If you choose to use voice features, the App may request microphone and speech-recognition permissions. Voice processing is provided by Apple's iOS services, which may process information on-device or through Apple depending on your device, settings, language, and connection. We do not receive or store your microphone audio through our own servers.
6. Purchases and Subscription Access
Apple processes App Store purchases, subscriptions, billing, and refund requests under Apple's policies. We use RevenueCat to verify subscription access, restore purchases, prevent fraud, and understand aggregated subscription performance. RevenueCat receives anonymous purchase-history and entitlement information; we do not provide it with your name, email address, or a user-account identifier, and we do not use this information for advertising or tracking.
7. Support Communications
If you contact us, we may receive your email address, message, screenshots, device details, and any other information you choose to include. Please do not send sensitive information unless it is necessary to resolve your request.
8. Data Retention and Your Choices
You can remove local App data by deleting saved TVs, resetting relevant settings in the App where available, or uninstalling the App. Support communications may be retained as needed to respond to requests, maintain business records, and comply with legal obligations.
9. Children's Privacy
The App is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
10. Changes and Contact
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will update the effective date when we do. Questions can be sent to hello@617sw.com or through our contact form.
