Privacy Policy.
Effective date: 4 September 2026 · DropTime (Australia)
1. Overview & Commitment
DropTime is an Australian streaming release utility designed around privacy-by-default. We do not require accounts, logins, or social tracking to search release times, use the interactive countdowns, or build a watchlist on your device.
2. Information We Collect
- Email Alerts: When you voluntarily register for episode release notifications, we collect your email address, selected show/episode, notification timing, and preferred timezone. We send a double opt-in confirmation email to verify control of the inbox.
- Device Storage (Local): Your watchlist and preferred timezone are stored locally on your device via browser local storage. This data is not uploaded or tied to personal profiles.
- Aggregate Metrics: Sponsor outbound link clicks are recorded as privacy-preserving daily aggregate counters without tracking cookies, cross-site beacons, or digital fingerprinting.
3. Third-Party Service Providers
We work only with necessary infrastructure processors to deliver the service:
- Resend: Used solely to send transactional verification emails and scheduled episode release reminders. We do not sell, rent, or share email addresses with advertisers.
- Self-Hosted Infrastructure: Our database and background worker containers operate in isolated environments with restricted access.
4. Retention, Unsubscribe & Deletion
Every notification email contains a direct unsubscribe link. Once unsubscribed, reminders cease immediately. To request full erasure of your email address and notification history from our database, email us at [email protected].
