Privacy Policy

Because your data is exactly that—yours.

Effective Date: April 2, 2026

At Bridgemote, we believe privacy is a fundamental human right. Our philosophy is simple: we respect your privacy, and therefore, we do not collect, store, share, or transmit any of your personal data.

1. Information We Do Not Collect

Bridgemote operates entirely locally on your device. We do not collect personal information, usage metrics, analytics, or crash reports. We do not use third-party tracking frameworks or advertising networks. What happens on your watch, stays on your watch.

2. Local Network Usage

To function seamlessly as a remote control, Bridgemote communicates securely with devices on your local network (such as your Smart TV). This communication happens directly peer-to-peer between your Apple Watch and the target device. No commands, IP addresses, or device information are ever sent to external cloud servers.

3. Local Storage

Any settings, configurations, or device pairing information you save within the app are stored exclusively on your device using Apple's secure, native storage mechanisms (such as the Keychain). This data never leaves your personal ecosystem and is not synced to our servers.

4. Third-Party Services

We do not integrate with any third-party services that collect user data. Bridgemote solely relies on Apple's powerful native frameworks to function, ensuring maximum performance and privacy.

5. Purchases & Transactions

Bridgemote offers a lifetime in-app purchase processed entirely through Apple's App Store. We do not have access to your payment information, billing details, or personal identity. Apple manages all transactions securely on our behalf.

6. Children's Privacy

Because Bridgemote does not collect any personal information whatsoever, it is safe and appropriate for users of all ages, including children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly solicit data from or market to children.

7. Contact Us

If you have any questions, concerns, or suggestions regarding this Privacy Policy, please feel free to reach out.

Quick Questions

Wait, so you really don't collect anything?

Nope. Nothing at all. We don't have servers, we don't track your analytics, and we don't log your crashes. Bridgemote is designed to be a local, standalone utility. We wouldn't even know who you are if we tried.

Does Bridgemote need the internet?

Only to download the app and make the initial purchase. Once that's done, Bridgemote communicates directly with your TV over your local Wi-Fi or local network. No external internet connection is required to send remote commands after setup.

How are my TV pairings saved?

Your TV models and local configurations are saved directly to your Apple Watch's local storage. This information is kept strictly on your device.
