Privacy Policy — StreamFix

Introduction

StreamFix operates the website streamfix.io — a free guide that helps people find out how to legally watch streaming services via VPN in countries where a platform is not directly available. We personally test every streaming platform and every VPN service we recommend — verifying that they actually work as intended. We are not a subscription platform or a social network. We do not create user profiles, do not sell advertising, and do not require registration to use the site.

This policy describes what data we collect from visitors — and more importantly, what we do not collect at all.

🔒

In short: No account, no password, no email. We collect nothing that could identify you — no name, surname, email, phone number, or any personal identifier. If you don't contact us yourself, we have no idea who you are.

What we actually collect

We collect only anonymous technical data necessary to operate the site and understand how visitors use it. None of this data personally identifies you.

Anonymous traffic statistics — which pages and streaming services are most popular, where visitors come from (country, not specific location), what browser and device type they use. This data is used solely to know which guides to keep up to date.

Approximate location (current session only) — we estimate your country from your IP address to pre-fill the "I'm currently in…" field. We do not store your IP address, we do not store your country — it disappears when you close the page.

Analytics cookies — an anonymous session identifier for measuring traffic. Contains no personal data. See Cookie Policy.

✅

What we don't collect at all: name, surname, email address, phone number, date of birth, payment details, precise GPS location, passwords, or any other personal identifier. Simply because we don't need them for anything.

Contact form — the only exception

If you reach out to us via the contact form or email, we store only what you write to us — typically a name, email address, and message text. Without these details, we wouldn't be able to reply.

We use this data solely to answer your inquiry. We do not add you to any mailing list, and we do not send newsletters or commercial messages.

We retain form data for a maximum of 12 months after resolving your inquiry, then delete it.

We will delete it at your request at any time — just email us at privacy@streamfix.io.

We do not share data with any third party.

Analytics & traffic measurement

We use third-party analytics tools (e.g. Google Analytics or similar) to measure traffic. These tools are configured to anonymise IP addresses before processing — the tool never receives a full IP address.

What analytics tracks: which page was visited, how long a user spent on it, how they arrived (direct link, search engine, social media), browser and OS type, approximate country. What analytics does not track: specific identity, name, email, or any personal data.

ℹ️

Why do we do this? We continuously test how individual VPNs work with specific streaming platforms — and we need to know which ones people ask about most often. This tells us where to focus testing and which guides to update first. Nothing more.

Affiliate links

StreamFix contains affiliate (partner) links to VPN providers — NordVPN, Surfshark, ExpressVPN and others. If you click such a link and purchase a VPN, we receive a commission from the provider. The price for you does not change.

By clicking an affiliate link, you are visiting a third-party website that may have its own cookies and privacy policy. This policy does not apply to them.

🔬

How our recommendations are made: We actually test every VPN we recommend — verifying it works with specific streaming platforms, how fast it is, whether the platform can detect and block it. Only after testing do we include it in recommendations. We only earn a commission if you purchase — which motivates us to recommend only those that actually work, because a disappointed user won't come back.
