Privacy Policy ​
Last updated: April 9, 2026
Movi Player — Chrome Extension & Web Player
Movi Player is an open-source video player. Your privacy matters to us, and we have designed Movi Player to work entirely on your device.
Data Collection ​
Movi Player does not collect, store, transmit, or share any personal data or user information. Specifically:
- No analytics or tracking — We do not use any analytics services, tracking pixels, or telemetry.
- No user accounts — Movi Player does not require sign-up or authentication.
- No cookies — We do not set or read any cookies.
- No network requests to our servers — Movi Player does not communicate with any server operated by us. All video decoding and playback happens locally on your device.
Video Playback ​
When you play a video from a URL, Movi Player fetches the video data directly from the source URL you provide. This network request goes directly from your browser to the video host — Movi Player does not proxy, intercept, or log these requests.
When you play a local file, the file is read entirely on your device and never uploaded anywhere.
Permissions ​
The Chrome extension requests the following permissions:
| Permission | Purpose |
|---|---|
contextMenus | To add a "Play with Movi Player" option when you right-click a video link |
activeTab | To detect video URLs on the current page |
clipboardRead | To allow pasting video URLs directly into the player |
These permissions are used solely for their stated purpose and do not grant access to browsing history, personal data, or any other information.
Local Storage ​
Movi Player may store your playback preferences (such as volume level and resume position) in your browser's local storage. This data stays on your device and is never transmitted externally.
Third-Party Services ​
Movi Player does not integrate with or send data to any third-party services.
Open Source ​
Movi Player is open source. You can review the entire source code at github.com/MrUjjwalG/movi-player.
Changes to This Policy ​
If we make changes to this privacy policy, we will update the "Last updated" date above.
