01 The short version
The PikaShow app is a third party streaming application. It can provide access to movies, web series, live TV, news and sports streams, and may use advertising or sponsor services. The exact information processed can vary by the APK build, device and third party services used.
This website may process standard technical information such as server logs and, where enabled, basic analytics. We do not ask visitors to provide payment details simply to browse the site or download the APK.
This policy applies to the PikaShow application and this website. It explains the categories of information that may be processed, why they may be needed, how third party services can be involved, and what choices you have.
02 Data the app may process
PikaShow is designed primarily for streaming and playback. Depending on the version you install and the services available through it, the app may process technical information needed to load streams, play media, remember settings, display advertisements, support casting, and troubleshoot playback.
| Data category | Purpose | Possible location |
|---|---|---|
| Device and app information | Compatibility, playback and troubleshooting | Device and, where applicable, service providers |
| Network information | Connect to streams, updates and content services | Device and network or service providers |
| Playback preferences | Remember settings such as quality or subtitles | Device storage where supported |
| Viewing activity | Recommendations or app functionality where enabled | Device and applicable service providers |
| Advertising-related data | Serve or measure sponsored content where ads are used | App and advertising providers |
| Personal account details | PikaShow does not require a standard account for basic use | Not required for basic app access |
Because PikaShow is a third party streaming application and may rely on external content or advertising services, you should review the privacy information of any service that the installed build connects to.
03 Permissions and device access
The permissions available to an APK can vary between Android releases. PikaShow may request access needed for functions such as media playback, downloads, offline viewing, casting or saving files.
- Media or storage access. May be required when you choose to download or save media for offline playback.
- Network access. Required to connect to streaming sources, live TV services, updates or other online functionality.
- Notification access. May be used by some builds for playback or update notifications if enabled.
Only grant permissions that are presented by the APK you choose to install and that make sense for the feature you are using. If an APK requests sensitive permissions that are unrelated to its advertised functionality, do not install it.
04 Data the website collects
Like most websites, this site may sit behind a web server that automatically records technical request information. Depending on the hosting setup, this can include an IP address, browser type, operating system, requested page, referring page and request time. This information is generally used to operate the site, prevent abuse and diagnose technical problems.
If analytics are enabled, the site may also process aggregated information such as page views, approximate visitor counts, referral sources and general geographic information. Analytics settings should be configured according to the services actually installed on the website.
06 Third party services
PikaShow and this website may depend on third party infrastructure or services. These can include web hosting, content delivery, advertising, analytics, video or stream providers, web fonts, casting services and external websites.
- Hosting and content delivery may process technical request information to deliver the website or files.
- Advertising or sponsor services may process technical identifiers or usage information when advertisements are displayed.
- Analytics services may process website usage information where analytics are enabled.
- External content providers may have their own data practices when the app connects to their services or streams.
We do not control the privacy practices of independent third parties. Before using an external service, review its current privacy policy and permissions.
Links to other sites
This website may link to other websites. Once you leave this site, the other site's privacy policy applies to information it collects.
07 How long information is kept
Retention depends on the type of information and the service handling it. Website server logs are normally retained only as long as reasonably needed for security, operations and troubleshooting. Analytics data may be retained according to the settings and retention period of the analytics provider. Messages sent to support may be retained while the request is being handled and for a reasonable follow up period.
Information stored locally by the app, such as preferences or downloaded files, remains on your device until you remove it, clear the app data or uninstall the application.
08 Your privacy choices and rights
Depending on where you live, applicable privacy laws may give you rights concerning personal information, including rights to access, correct, delete, object to or restrict certain processing, and withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
Requests should be sent to the privacy contact listed below. If a request concerns information held by a third party service, we may need to direct you to that provider because we cannot access or control its records.
Device controls. Android lets you review and change app permissions through system settings. You can also clear app storage, uninstall the app, control notifications and manage browser cookies through your device or browser settings.
09 Children
PikaShow is a general entertainment application and is not specifically directed at children. Parents and guardians should use appropriate device controls and review the content available through the app. We do not knowingly request personal information from children through this website.
10 Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures appropriate to operating the website and distributing application files. The website should be served over HTTPS, and published APK files should be obtained from a trusted distribution source.
No internet service or downloadable application can be guaranteed completely secure. Before installing an APK, verify its source, file integrity where a checksum is provided, and the permissions requested by the build.
11 Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when the website, application, third party services or applicable legal requirements change. The date at the top of this page indicates the latest revision. Material changes should be reflected on this page so that visitors can review the current policy before continuing to use the site.
