Effective from 2026-10-27 for CouchPotatoPlayer. Provider: BW-Tech GmbH IT-Service für Systemintegration und Datensicherheit, Albert-Bassermann-Straße 31, 68782 Brühl, Deutschland.
1. Player-only service
CouchPotatoPlayer is a software player only. The app contains, provides, sells, recommends, or brokers no channels, films, series, playlists, provider accounts, or subscriptions. The developer does not operate a streaming service or endorse a source that a user configures.
The app download and base features are free. Where offered in Google Play, Pro is an optional one-time in-app unlock for playing your own movies and series and sorting with the browser editor. The applicable store shows the price before purchase. Existing purchases can be restored with the same store account. The app sells no media, provider access or subscriptions.
2. Your sources and rights
You may add only sources that you are legally authorized to access and play. You are responsible for the URL, account, playlist, EPG, media, license, territorial restrictions, household/device restrictions, and every required consent. Do not use the app to infringe copyright, bypass access controls, redistribute content, share credentials unlawfully, or access a service contrary to its terms or law.
3. Provider relationship
Your provider is independent from CouchPotatoPlayer. The developer does not control its availability, catalog, security, billing, data practices, or legality. Enter credentials only for a service you trust. Prefer HTTPS; unencrypted HTTP may expose credentials and traffic.
4. Function availability
Playback, search, EPG, tracks, Google Cast on supported mobile devices, system Picture in Picture and optional Google Drive synchronization depend on device, OS, configuration, source, receiver and resources. No universal format/provider compatibility or operational cloud authorization in an unconfigured build is promised.
5. Accounts, security, and parental controls
Protect provider credentials and device access. Use the app’s PIN/parental controls where appropriate, but do not treat them as a substitute for supervision or provider controls. User-selected sources can contain mature material; the app is not Made for Kids.
6. Privacy and diagnostics
The Privacy Policy explains local storage, direct provider communication, optional Google Drive synchronization, mobile voice search/Cast, Android update requests and explicit diagnostic submission. Never include secrets in support material. Revoke optional permissions and remove local/cloud data using the respective controls.
7. Acceptable use and suspension
You must not misuse the app, interfere with security or infrastructure, distribute malware, submit unlawful material, exploit diagnostics/support, or represent that content is supplied by CouchPotatoPlayer. The developer may restrict developer-operated support/diagnostic services to protect users, comply with law, or stop abuse; this does not control independent provider access.
8. Updates, availability, and liability
Updates may fix defects, change compatibility, or discontinue unsafe/unsupported behavior. The app is provided subject to mandatory consumer rights. To the extent legally permitted, no warranty is made about independent providers, uninterrupted streams, catalogs, metadata, or network quality.
The provider has unlimited liability for intent and gross negligence, culpable injury to life, body, or health, and every case where liability is mandatory by law. For a slightly negligent breach of an essential contractual duty, liability is limited to the foreseeable loss typical for this kind of agreement. Liability for other slight negligence is excluded to the extent permitted by law. This does not alter statutory claims against independent providers or other third parties.
9. Termination and deletion
You can stop using the app, delete provider profiles, disable sync, revoke permissions, and uninstall it. Deletion from the device does not terminate your independent provider contract or delete data held by that provider, your chosen cloud service, or a support channel; use their controls separately.
10. Contact and changes
Legal notice: https://couchpotatosuite.com/en/legal-notice/. Support: info@bw-tech.de and https://couchpotatosuite.com/en/cpp-android-support/. Privacy: info@bw-tech.de and https://couchpotatosuite.com/en/cpp-android-privacy/. Material changes will be published with an effective date. German law applies without restricting mandatory consumer-protection rules in the user’s country of residence. The statutory venue applies; an exclusive venue is agreed only where legally permitted. Mandatory consumer and withdrawal rights remain unaffected.
The provider does not voluntarily undertake and is not willing to participate in dispute-resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board. Any mandatory statutory participation obligation remains unaffected.
