Privacy

The short version

Everything runs in your browser. Your answers, your “Seen it” list, and your settings are never uploaded — we couldn’t read them if we wanted to.

What's stored, and where

WatchNext saves four things in your browser’s local storage: titles you’ve marked “Seen it” or “Not interested” (so they’re never suggested again), your recent picks (so you can find that movie from last week), your streaming region, and your light-or-dark theme choice.

That data lives only on your device. It’s not sent to a server, and it isn’t shared between your devices or browsers.

What leaves your browser

To fetch titles, posters, and streaming availability, your browser talks directly to TMDB’s public API — the same way it fetches images on any website. Those requests carry the filters you chose (genres, runtime, region), never your identity, and TMDB’s handling of them is covered by TMDB’s own privacy policy.

No accounts, no trackers

There’s nothing to sign up for, and we don’t use analytics trackers, advertising pixels, or cookies.

Clearing your data

Use “Clear history” to empty your recent picks, or clear this site’s data in your browser settings to remove everything at once. Gone means gone — there’s no copy anywhere else.
