Privacy Policy
Last updated November 10, 2026
This policy explains what happens to your data when you use the AnimeX app for iPhone and iPad (“AnimeX”, “we”, “us”). The short version: there’s no account, your library stays on your device, and the app is free because it shows ads.
What stays on your device
Your library (the anime and manga you track, your progress, scores and statuses), your collections, your reminders, your recent searches and your settings are saved only on your device. We don’t receive them, and we can’t see them. Deleting the app deletes them.
AnimeX has no sign-up or login, and we don’t ask for your name, email address or phone number.
Services the app uses
AnimeX uses the services below. They receive some data from your device to work, and each handles it under its own privacy policy.
Advertising: Google AdMob
AdMob shows the ads that keep AnimeX free. To choose and measure ads, it may collect your device’s IP address, an approximate location based on that IP address, device and app information, and how you interact with ads.
When you first open the app, iOS asks whether AnimeX may track you. If you allow it, AdMob may also use your device’s advertising identifier to show ads based on your interests. If you don’t, you’ll still see ads, but they won’t be personalized with that identifier. You can change your choice at any time in Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
How Google uses information from apps that use its services
App analytics and crash reports: Google Firebase
Firebase Analytics records how the app is used (for example, which screens are opened) along with device information such as the model and iOS version. Firebase Crashlytics sends a report when the app crashes, so we can fix the problem. Firebase Remote Config downloads app settings, such as how often ads appear. These services use an identifier for the app installation, not your name or contact details.
Anime and manga information
Titles, scores, episodes and other details come from the Tenrai API, and cover images load from image servers such as MyAnimeList’s. Like any website, these servers receive your IP address and what you request, including your search terms.
Trailers: YouTube
Trailers and promotional videos play in YouTube’s video player, and YouTube handles that data under Google’s Privacy Policy.
Notifications
Airing reminders are scheduled on your device by iOS. We don’t run a notification server and don’t receive a notification token. You can turn notifications off in Settings → Notifications → AnimeX.
How the data is used
- to run the app and its features,
- to show ads, which pay for the app,
- to find and fix crashes and improve the app.
We don’t sell your personal information. If you allow tracking, AdMob may use your advertising identifier for personalized ads, which some privacy laws call “sharing”. You can stop this at any time by turning tracking off for AnimeX.
Your choices
- Turn tracking on or off in Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
- Turn reminders off in Settings → Notifications → AnimeX.
- Delete the app to remove everything it saved on your device.
- Contact us with any question or request about your data.
Children
AnimeX isn’t directed at children under 13, and we don’t knowingly collect personal information from them.
Changes to this policy
If we change this policy, we’ll update it on this page and change the date at the top.
