WhatToWatch - Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 28, 2026

Théo Mesnil built the WhatToWatch app as a Free app. This SERVICE is provided by Théo Mesnil at no cost and is intended for use as is.

This page is used to inform visitors regarding my policies with the collection, use, and disclosure of Personal Information if anyone decides to use my Service.

If you choose to use my Service, then you agree to the collection and use of information in relation to this policy. The Personal Information that I collect is used for providing and improving the Service. I will not use or share your information with anyone except as described in this Privacy Policy.

Information Collection and Use

WhatToWatch is the simplest and fastest way to discover movies, series, and where to watch them. The app is powered by React Native (Expo) and the TMDb (The Movie Database) API.

The app requires a login via your TMDb account (https://www.themoviedb.org/). Authentication is handled entirely by TMDb. I do not store your TMDb credentials or any personal account information on my own servers. All data fetched through the TMDb API is governed by TMDb's own Privacy Policy.

The app does use third-party services that may collect information used to identify you.
