Effective January 1, 2023. Read previous Privacy Policies.

This Privacy Policy ("Policy") tells you how we collect, use, and share your information, keep it safe, and the privacy choices you have. If you reside in California, Nevada, or Virginia, please also see the section below called "State-specific privacy information."

DIRECTV VIDEO APPS PRIVACY POLICY

This Policy covers the information provided, collected, or generated when you access, use, or subscribe to the DIRECTV app and any other app that we control to which this Policy applies. Services provided by DIRECTV, LLC and its affiliates ("we" or "us") which may be accessed through various supported platforms connected to the internet, such as a browser, mobile device, tablet, Smart TV, or on a streaming device are collectively referred to as ("the App"). In certain circumstances, as we describe below, this Policy also applies to data about your home television viewing that we collect from your DIRECTV set-top box ("set-top-box").

The DIRECTV Privacy Policy does not apply to the App, unless we combine your data from the App, or from your DIRECTV set-top box through the Personalized Plus Advertising (formerly Enhanced Relevant Advertising ) program, with other data collected from your use of other DIRECTV or DIRECTV affiliate products and services.

Depending on how you use the App and what login credentials you provide, your use is subject to the appropriate user agreement to which you separately agree (such as the DIRECTV Apps End User License Agreement or the DIRECTV STREAM Terms of Service and End User License Agreement). By using the App, you expressly agree to the collection, storage, use, and sharing of data identified in this Policy.

Please note that your use of any DIRECTV Streaming Device, such as the DIRECTV STREAM Device, Gemini, and any associated voice remotes or other devices is governed by a separate DIRECTV Device Privacy Policy.

This Policy applies to you and anyone who uses the App under your account, except where separate privacy policies or terms and conditions apply. It is your responsibility to make sure all users of the App are aware of this Policy. References to "you" throughout this Policy includes all users. It is important that you share this Policy with all account users and communicate the account holder's choices to them.


Here are detailed examples of types of information we collect:

  • Location information includes the location of the device used to access the App. Location information is generated when the devices, products or services you use interact Wi-Fi routers, Bluetooth services, access points, other devices, beacons and/or with other technologies, including GPS.
  • TV and video viewing information is generated when you use the App on your phone, tablet, computer, Smart TV, or any other device. This includes information like what videos, stations, programs and ads you watch or record and when and how you use the App (such as what you click on or search for). If you have DIRECTV satellite service and are using the App through that service, we also collect data about your home television viewing from your DIRECTV set-top-box.
  • Account information includes things like contact and billing information, such as name, e-mail address, log-in credentials, address or postal code, payment method, telephone number, service-related details and history and similar information. It also includes subscription plans for accounts linked to the App.
  • Online information includes internet protocol addresses and URLs, pixels, cookies and similar technologies, and identifiers such as advertising IDs and device IDs. It can also include information about the time you spend on websites or apps, the links or advertisements you see, or interact with, search terms you enter, items identified in your online shopping carts and other similar information.
  • Demographic and interest information includes information about you that we get from you directly, infer ourselves and get from other companies to better tailor our programming, marketing, and advertising services to you.
  • Equipment information includes information that identifies or relates to your equipment, like your set-top box, TV receiver, remote, computer, tablet, or phone used with the App, such as type, identifier, status, settings, configuration, software, or use.
  • Network performance and usage information includes information about the networks used to deliver our TV and video services over the App, including connection information.

We collect your information in 3 ways:

  • You give it to us when you make a purchase, set up an account, or otherwise communicate with or provide it to us.
  • We automatically get it when you use (or your device uses) the App.
  • We get it from outside sources like credit reports, marketing mailing lists, and commercially available geographic and demographic information, along with other available information, such as public posts to social networking sites.

We use your information, generally speaking, to provide and improve the App. As we describe below, that may include using your information for related uses such as communicating with you, marketing, preventing fraud, and for billing, advertising, and research purposes.

Here are examples of ways we use your information:

  • We may use location information, such as GPS or IP address, ("Your Location Information") collected through use of the App to provide access to certain services and features, including live local channels, channel guide, or other content with geographic restrictions. We may combine and use data, including Your Location Information and viewing data collected from the App and/or your DIRECTV set-top box, with other data as described in this Policy.
  • Contacting you.
  • Tailoring your viewing experience, including things like making recommendations and providing you with localized content.
  • Improving your experience and protecting the App. This includes things like customer care, security, verifying or authenticating your identity, detecting, and preventing fraud, optimizing content selection, recommendation algorithms, delivery, billing and collection, protecting your financial accounts, authorizing transactions and development of the App.
  • Helping us plan, deploy, improve, protect, and defend our infrastructure, protecting our property and legal rights, and for other lawful purposes.
  • Helping us understand which products, services, and offers may interest you, creating engaging and customized experiences and offering new or improved products and services to you. This is based on things like the information we've collected and our research, development, and analysis.
  • Designing and delivering advertising and marketing campaigns and materials to you and to others in and outside of the App and measuring their effectiveness. See the Choices and controls section below for more information about how your information is used for advertising and marketing programs and your choices and controls for such use.
  • Delivering or customizing products and the content you see, including advertisements, articles, videos, and marketing materials. For more information on how your information is used for marketing purposes, please see the section below: "Do we share your information and, if so, with whom?"
  • For security purposes, including preventing and investigating illegal activities and violations of our Terms, Use Policies and other service conditions or restrictions.
  • Protecting your rights and our rights and complying with legal obligations.
  • In combination with other information as described in this Policy.
  • Any other purpose that is disclosed to you at the time we collect the information or is related to a request made by you.

  • We share it with your permission.
  • We share it with our affiliates — like AT&T.
  • We share it with non-DIRECTV companies or entities as explained in this Policy.
  • We may share information with any party when we have your consent or when you otherwise choose to share such information.

We share your viewing information and other information collected from the App as described in this Policy. We may also combine and use viewing data collected from your DIRECTV set-top box if you have DIRECTV satellite service and are using the App through that service. By downloading and/or using this App, you permit us to share your viewing information and other information we collect as described in this Policy.

For more details about how your information may be shared for advertising and marketing see the Choices and controls section below.

Sharing information with our affiliates — like AT&T: We share information with our affiliates. For example, we may combine information from the App with DIRECTV set-top box information and share such information with our affiliates. In instances where we combine your data from the App, or from your DIRECTV set-top box through the Personalized Plus Advertising program, with other data collected from your use of other DIRECTV or DIRECTV affiliate products and services, the DIRECTV Privacy Policy applies.

Sharing information with non-DIRECTV companies that provide services for us or for you: We share information that identities you personally with vendors that perform services for us or that support the App, including marketing or ad delivery services. Another example would be programmers and networks who provide the programming that you watch through the App. We do not allow those vendors to use your information for any purpose other than to perform those services, and we require them to protect the confidentiality and security of data they get from us.

Sharing information with other non-DIRECTV companies or entities: There are also times when we provide information to other companies and entities, such as government agencies, credit bureaus and collection agencies, without your consent for reasons such as:

  • Complying with court orders, subpoenas, lawful discovery requests and as otherwise authorized or required by law. Like all companies, we are required by law to provide information to government and law enforcement agencies, as well as parties to civil lawsuits.
  • Detecting and preventing fraud.
  • Providing or obtaining payment.
  • Enforcing our agreements and protecting our rights or property.
  • Routing our products and services.
  • Ensuring operations and security.
  • Notifying, responding, or providing information (including location information) to a responsible governmental entity in emergency circumstances or in situations involving immediate danger of death or serious physical injury.

Disclosing personally identifiable information collected from subscribers in response to a court order: When a non-governmental entity obtains a court order, we're authorized to disclose personally identifiable information collected from the subscriber's use of our products and services, but only after providing notice to the subscriber.

When a governmental entity obtains a court order, we're authorized to disclose personally identifiable information collected from the subscriber's use of the TV service, but only if the following conditions are met:

  • A judge decides that the governmental entity has offered clear and convincing evidence that the subject of the information is reasonably suspected of engaging in criminal activity and that the information sought would be material evidence in the case; and
  • The subject of the information has an opportunity to appear and contest the governmental entity's claim; and
  • We have provided notice to the subscriber as required by applicable state law.
  • We are required to notify you about the special requirements we must follow when it comes to sharing your personally identifiable viewing information in response to a court order.

We also may disclose personally identifiable information to a government entity pursuant to valid requests under the Electronic Communications Privacy Act and related statutes, except that such disclosure may not include records revealing a users' selection of video programming.

Sharing metrics reports with non-DIRECTV companies: Sometimes the services you enjoy from us directly involve other businesses. We may pay a network for the rights to broadcast a sporting event or your favorite show. We may be paid by an advertiser to deliver an advertisement or by a business customer, like a hospital or hotel, for our products and services. In such cases, we may use or share information that doesn't directly identify you personally to provide metrics reports to our business customers and service suppliers. We may also share it with advertising and other companies to deliver or assess the effectiveness of advertising and marketing campaigns.

Sharing information for advertising: We show our own ads and ads from other companies, and we share information with third parties for Online Behavioral Advertising purposes. We determine your specific interests based on information collected through the App or that we obtain from third parties, as described in this Policy. When we share data about you with third parties, we may connect it with identifiers such as device or operating system identifiers or identifiers that do not identify you personally, which we or our service providers create to enhance the privacy and security of your personally identifiable information when used for advertising purposes. This could include but is not limited to your Apple or Android advertising ID. The advertisements that you see may be tailored to your interests based on information relating to your use of the App, your relationships with companies that advertise through the App, the advertisements or content you viewed, and your other activities online. For example, this information may include what shows are watched; general interests (for example sports lover); specific interests (for example a basketball fan of a specific team); and other information collected about you including Your Location Information as described in this Policy. We determine your specific interests based on information collected from third parties, through the App and from your DIRECTV set-top box, as described in this Policy. To facilitate those ads, we don't share information with advertisers that can directly identify you, such as your name or postal address. Instead, we and our advertisers share limited information with third-party service providers who employ a matching process that connects information about your interests (for example, coffee-lover or sports enthusiast) to identifiers that do not identify you personally but instead are associated with your browser, devices or the App. These online identifiers are used to serve you ads that relate to your interests. We may also compile and provide reports, including in encrypted, aggregated, or de-identified forms, to advertisers about the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. See Online Behavioral Advertising below for more information about Online Behavioral Advertising and your rights to express choices about our use of your information for the above purposes. Visit Your Privacy Choices to express your choices.

Sharing information for research: We may share with other companies and entities for research. When we share this information, we require companies and entities to agree not to attempt or to allow others to use it to identify individuals. Our agreements will also prevent those businesses from reusing or reselling the information and require that they will handle it in a secure manner, consistent with this Policy.

Sharing information with DIRECTV affiliates and non-DIRECTV companies for advertising and marketing programs: We may share information with our affiliates like AT&T, and with non-DIRECTV companies to deliver or assess effectiveness of advertising and marketing campaigns as described in the Choices and controls section below.

Sharing and collecting location information: We collect and share location information, for example to provide access to local programming, such as local news and sports, and advertising. Without Your Location Information, we may not be able to provide access to certain services and features, including live local channels or other content with geographic restrictions. We may use your location to deliver certain features, such as the channel guide. This data may also be used to tailor advertising to you based on your location. You may have the right to control location tracking within our mobile apps or other services through options provided on the specific app or service.


  • We may also combine the App customer information with other data collected from your use of other DIRECTV products and services or we may combine this information with data that comes from an affiliate, like AT&T, that has a different privacy policy. If we do so, the DIRECTV Privacy Policy applies to the combined data set. Your DIRECTV Choices and Controls will apply as to the respective program under which it is being used.
  • If you're opted into DIRECTV and AT&T's Personalized Plus Advertising program and we combine your data from other DIRECTV and AT&T products and services with App information, the Personalized Plus Advertising terms will apply. See the Personalized Plus Advertising program for more information.

  • This Policy does not apply if you go to a third-party site from the App, such as when you go to a non-DIRECTV website from the App (by clicking on a link or an advertisement, for example). In this case, the privacy policy of the third-party site may apply.
  • This Policy does not apply to information generated from the use of the DIRECTV STREAM TV Device, such as what you click on or search for, and your voice commands. In this case, the DIRECTV STREAM Device Privacy Policy would apply.

  • We work hard to protect your information. Though we cannot guarantee the protection of your information, we've established electronic and administrative safeguards designed to help make the information we collect secure.
  • In the event of a security incident, laws and regulations direct us in how to give you notification when certain types of sensitive information are involved. We will provide you with notice in accordance with these laws and regulations.
  • We will keep your personally identifiable information in connection with your use of the App as long as you are a customer and/or user, or until it is no longer needed for business, tax, or legal purposes. You can access or correct this information by writing to us at: DIRECTV Video App Privacy Policy, 2260 E. Imperial Hwy., El Segundo, CA 90245.

We do not knowingly collect personally identifying information from anyone under the age of 13 unless we first obtain permission from the child's parent or legal guardian. Unless we have parental consent, we will not contact a child under the age of 13 for marketing purposes.

Information collected from devices or services purchased by adult subscribers that are used by children without our knowledge will be treated as the adult's information under this Policy.


You have choices and controls over how your data is collected, used and shared when you use the App:

Collection of information: You can stop the collection of information through the App by uninstalling the App.

Sharing of information: You may limit the sharing of information associated with your device advertising ID through your device or App settings.

DIRECTV Set Top Box: If you access the App through your Satellite service you can revoke your opt-in consent for your DIRECTV set-top box data for tailored advertising and for sharing with third parties as part of the Personalized Plus (formerly Enhanced Relevant Advertising) program by going to Your Privacy Choices. This does not affect choices for Personalized (formerly Relevant Advertising. ) You can opt out of Relevant Advertising at Your Privacy Choices.

DIRECTV STREAM promotional emails: For DIRECTV STREAM subscribers, by creating an account, you agree to receive promotional emails regarding your respective subscriptions. You can always unsubscribe from emails relating to DIRECTV STREAM by clicking the unsubscribe link at the bottom of the promotional email you receive.

Online Behavioral Advertising also known as tailored or personalized advertising, is automated, customized advertising that you see when using online services, like ads in mobile apps or on websites. Those ads are served to you based on inferences about your interests. Those interests are determined from data collected about you, whether by DIRECTV or other parties.

  • We work with ad companies that may serve ads for us, and for others, across your use of online services. We and these companies may use cookies, mobile advertising identifiers, and other technologies to collect information about your use of our and other websites and apps. This information may be used to, among other things, analyze and track online and in-app activities and deliver ads and content tailored to your interests as part of our, our advertisers' and third parties' advertising programs.
  • In accordance with industry self-regulatory principles, you can opt out of Online Behavioral Advertising from companies who participate in the Digital Advertising Alliance by going to their Consumer Choice Page or selecting this icon Ad Choices Icon when you see it on an online ad. To limit collection of data on websites that may be used for advertising, learn about how to manage cookies and other similar technologies on your computer.
  • To limit collection of data on websites that may be used for advertising, you can manage cookies and other similar technologies on your computer or other device. If you change computers, devices, web browsers or you delete cookies, you will need to-opt out again. Please note that our collection of web browsing information works independently of your web browser's privacy settings with respect to cookies and private browsing

California opt-out preference signal processing notice (applies to California residents only). In addition, effective January 1, 2023, if you access a DIRECTV website from a California based device with an opt-out preference signal enabled in your browser that we recognize (like the Global Privacy Control), we will process the opt-out preference signal and apply it as your cross-context behavioral advertising preference. This means that we will suppress targeted advertising cookies on your device and set a Do Not Track cookie to identify your preference if you visit without your signal on. To provide additional information to opt-out of the sale or sharing of your personal information, please visit Your Privacy Choices. We do not otherwise currently respond to Do Not Track and similar opt-out signals.

Information about our customers and users, including personally identifiable information, may be shared, and transferred as part of any merger, acquisition, sale of company assets or transition of service to another provider. This also applies in the unlikely event of an insolvency, bankruptcy or receivership in which customer and user records would be transferred to another entity because of such a proceeding.


This portion of our Policy contains information on privacy rights specific to residents of California, Nevada, and Virginia.


This portion of our Policy applies to residents of the state of California only.

CALIFORNIA CONSUMER PRIVACY ACT (CCPA)

Your right to limit use and disclosure of sensitive personal information

In some instances, we may use or disclose certain CCPA PI that we collect which constitutes "sensitive personal information" under the CCPA.

Former Accountholders, Non-accountholders (without a password protected account).

As of the effective date of this Policy, we do not have actual knowledge that we sell or share CCPA PI of consumers under 16 years of age. If we collect CCPA PI that we know is from a child under 16 years old in the future, we will not sell or share that information unless we receive affirmative permission to do so. If a child is between 13 and 16 years of age, the child may provide that permission.

Retention of your personal information

We keep records and personal information for specified periods of time, depending on business needs, privacy interests and our legal compliance obligations.
