Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 12, 2026

This policy explains what information WatchMovies handles when you use the site, why, and the choices you have. In short: there are no visitor accounts, we do not sell data, and most of what the site remembers stays in your own browser.

Information you send us

When you use the contact form, the request form or the Report button on a title page, what you write is sent from your browser to Web3Forms, a form delivery service, which emails it to us: your email address, your name or the title you ask for, and your message. A report also carries the title, the player server and your browser type, so we can find the problem. We use this only to read and answer your message.

What stays in your browser

WatchMovies saves a few things in your browser's local storage so the site works the way you left it: your favorites, the titles you are watching and where you stopped, the player server you chose last, the autoplay setting, the grid or list view of the catalog pages, your new-episode notifications, and the waiting time between two messages. This information never leaves your device unless you send a form. You can delete it at any time by clearing your browser's site data.

Cookies

WatchMovies itself sets no cookies. Histats, which we use to count visits, and the third-party players can set their own cookies, which are governed by their own policies.

Third-party services

Some parts of the pages are loaded straight from other services. When that happens, your browser connects to them and they receive the technical information every connection carries, such as your IP address and browser type:

  • TMDB (The Movie Database) provides titles, descriptions and pictures. See the TMDB privacy policy.
  • YouTube plays trailers when you press the Trailer button. See the Google privacy policy.
  • Video players on the title pages are run by independent third-party providers, which load only when you open a title and choose to play it. We do not control them; please check their policies.
  • Histats counts visits to the site. See the Histats privacy policy.
  • Web3Forms delivers the messages of our forms and reports by email. See the Web3Forms privacy policy.

Server logs

Like every website, our hosting provider records technical logs of requests (IP address, date, page, browser) to keep the service secure and working. They are kept for a limited time and used for no other purpose.

Children

WatchMovies is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

Your rights

You can ask us to see, correct or delete any message you have sent us. Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR in the European Union) you may have further rights, such as objecting to processing or filing a complaint with your data protection authority. Write to us with the contact form to use them.

Changes to this policy

If we change this policy, we will update it on this page and change the date at the top.
