1. AniDachi and your account
AniDachi operates this website and the AniDachi Chrome extension for synchronized viewing, calls, invitations and personal watch history on supported video services.
When you sign in with Google or Discord, we receive your provider account identifier, email address, display name and profile image where available. We use these details to maintain your account, show your identity to people you interact with and manage access to your subscription. AniDachi stores its own session tokens in the browser. The extension reads the AniDachi website session cookie to connect your website and extension accounts; it does not collect unrelated website cookies.
2. Video information and personal history
The extension reads video information and playback state on supported YouTube, Crunchyroll, and Netflix pages to synchronize a room or save your progress. This includes the video URL and provider identifiers, title, cover image, episode and season details, playback position, duration and timestamps. It does not collect your general browsing history.
Automatic personal-history recording is enabled by default for signed-in accounts with Plus or Pro access, including a trial. You can turn it off in the extension Settings for your account in this browser. An existing disabled setting stays off after an update. The welcome explains this feature; viewing or dismissing it does not control recording. YouTube recording also requires its separate switch in Settings. When enabled, eligible progress is saved locally and synchronized with your AniDachi account during both solo and room viewing. Pending updates may be retried after a connection failure.
You can stop recording in the extension Settings. Disabling recording does not delete history already saved. Previously dispatched updates may finish processing; new capture stops. Losing Plus or Pro access also stops new recording and editing. Saved history remains available to read, resume and delete on Free. History belongs to your account; it is not a shared group completion record.
3. Rooms, people, notifications and calls
To operate rooms, we process room identifiers, membership and presence, invitations, playback commands, video source information, reactions, media state and connection signaling. Other room participants receive the information needed to identify participants and synchronize viewing. Friends, groups and invitation records support the social features you choose to use.
If you enable camera or microphone access, your live media is sent to other participants through WebRTC. Connections may use a relay when a direct connection is unavailable. Peers may learn network information, including an IP address, as part of establishing a connection. AniDachi does not record your calls or upload a recording of the streaming video; each participant watches through the original video service.
For invitation notifications, we store browser push subscription details and delivery state. Notification settings are available in AniDachi and in your browser. Operational logs and limited local diagnostics help troubleshoot errors, connection failures and abuse.
4. Service providers and permitted use
We use service providers to deliver the functions described here:
- Supabase stores account, subscription, social and watch-history records.
- Cloudflare operates realtime room infrastructure, connection services and media relays.
- Vercel hosts the website and server endpoints.
- Stripe processes payments and subscription changes. We keep billing identifiers and subscription status; Stripe handles full payment-card details.
- Google and Discord provide the sign-in method you select. Browser push services deliver notifications to your browser.
- Google Analytics and Amplitude process website usage events, device/browser information and performance measurements where configured. These identifiers are not necessarily anonymous. When you are signed in on the website, Amplitude may also store your account id, display name, email and plan so sessions can be matched to your account. Amplitude Session Replay may record public website sessions (page layout, clicks and navigation). These analytics SDKs are not installed in the extension.
- Gmail (Google) may deliver copies of contact and feature-request submissions to our team.
Contact and feature-request forms store your email address, name, subject or title, category and message, along with the request type and time. We keep these records in our internal CRM tools on private Vercel storage to fulfill your request and handle replies or follow-up about it.
We do not sell extension user data or use it for advertising, creditworthiness or lending decisions. We use it for the disclosed product features and their security and reliability, and share it with providers only as needed to deliver those purposes. Human access is limited to your explicit consent for a specific purpose, necessary security or legal handling, or aggregated data that cannot identify you.
AniDachi's use of information received from Chrome APIs follows the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements.
5. Storage, retention and security
Personal history is retained independently of individual rooms until you remove it or request account-data deletion. We do not automatically erase your oldest titles when a history limit is reached; adding new titles pauses until space is available. Account, social, room and operational records are kept as needed to provide the service, resolve failures and meet applicable obligations. Billing or security records may need to be retained after a deletion request.
The browser stores authentication state, settings, cached history and pending synchronization work. Removing the extension clears its browser storage but does not by itself delete server-side account history. You can manage server-side history in your account. We use encrypted transport and access controls; no online service can guarantee absolute security.
6. Cookies and your choices
To limit repeated free trials, AniDachi uses a first-party browser cookie and, when the extension is available, a randomly generated installation key. We store pseudonymous hashes of these markers to recognize prior trial use across account changes. The private installation key stays in the extension; the website receives a short-lived signed proof when you request a trial. We do not use hardware fingerprinting for this check. Without an extension connection, we use the account and cookie.
The trial browser cookie lasts up to 365 days. Consumed marker records stop restricting new accounts after 365 days and are removed by a daily, bounded cleanup. Unresolved activations stay reserved until their outcome is verified. These security records can survive account deletion; removing the extension clears its local key. People sharing the same browser or installation may not each receive a free trial. A short-lived cookie also preserves the choice of ordinary paid plans after a trial is unavailable here.
Essential cookies maintain your login and session. Website analytics may use cookies or browser identifiers. Browser privacy controls can restrict these, although blocking essential storage may prevent sign-in. You can separately control history recording, YouTube history, notifications, camera and microphone access. Turning off history recording does not prevent joining or synchronizing a room.
Depending on applicable law, you may be entitled to access, correct, export or delete personal data. For account deletion or assistance with these requests, email anidachi.app@gmail.com.
7. Changes and contact
We update this page when our data practices change. Where a change requires a new disclosure or choice, we will provide it in the product before starting that collection. For privacy questions, contact anidachi.app@gmail.com. You can return to AniDachi at any time.
