Privacy policy
The short version
Rerun Guide doesn’t collect, sell or share any information about you. There’s no Rerun Guide account, no analytics, no tracking, no paid ads and no ad network, and nothing is sent to us. The app talks to your own media server, to Plex or Emby if you sign in with them, and to Apple for the Sample station’s demo video.
Who we are
Rerun Guide is made by Soyboi LLC (soyboi.tech). “We” and “us” in this policy mean Soyboi LLC.
Where it runs
This policy covers Rerun Guide on Apple TV, iPhone, iPad and Mac, on Android phones, tablets, Google TV and Fire TV, and on LG and Samsung TVs. The app works the same way on all of them.
What stays on your device
To work, the app keeps a few things on your device: your server address, the sign-in token your server (or, for Plex, your plex.tv account) gives it, the channels and profiles you’ve made, a cached copy of your library’s listings, your settings and where you left off. Sign-in tokens are kept in the Keychain on Apple devices, on Android they’re encrypted with a key held in the Android Keystore, and on LG and Samsung TVs they’re kept in the app’s own storage on the TV. None of this is sent to us, though it may be included in your own device backups. Sign out in Settings to remove the sign-in token, then delete the app to remove the rest. On a Mac, the app’s data stays in ~/Library/Containers until you remove it there.
Your media server
Rerun Guide connects directly to the Plex, Jellyfin or Emby server you choose, to read your library and play it. Your server may keep its own logs of that activity, the same as any other app you use with it. That’s controlled by you and by the server software, not by us.
To help you find a server, the app can ask devices on your local network whether they’re a Plex, Jellyfin or Emby server; that question doesn’t leave your network. The app also makes up a random ID for this install and sends it, with the kind of device, to your server and to Plex or Emby, so they can list it among your devices.
If you link Plex, the app gets a code from plex.tv, you enter it at plex.tv/link, and plex.tv hands the app its sign-in. If you sign in to Plex with your email and password instead, the app sends them to plex.tv to get the same sign-in, and never stores your password. While Plex is linked, the app also asks plex.tv for your server’s current address. If your server can’t be reached directly, the connection may go through Plex’s relay service. Plex’s privacy policy applies to that sign-in, those address lookups and any relayed connection.
If you link Emby, the app gets a code from Emby Connect (connect.emby.media), you enter it at emby.media/pin, and Emby Connect hands the app its sign-in, along with the servers linked to your Emby Connect account and their addresses. Emby’s privacy policy applies to that sign-in.
The Sample station
The Sample station lets you try the guide without a server. It streams a public test video from Apple’s servers, the way any web video loads. Apple sees an ordinary request for that video; nothing about you or your library goes with it.
Messages from Soyboi
Rerun Guide is free and has no paid ads. To keep it that way, one in 15 trailer breaks opens with a 30-second spot for Soyboi LLC’s own product. The spots are built into the app and labeled “Ad” on screen, and you can skip each one after a few seconds. To stop them, turn off Messages from Soyboi in Settings. They don’t come from an ad network, and showing them sends nothing to us or anyone else.
To report a spot you think is inappropriate, email support@soyboi.tech.
