This Privacy Policy applies to all our products and services, including Plex client apps, streaming content to the Plex client apps, our premium Plex Pass service, Plex Media Server software, and all other Plex software and services (collectively, our “Services”). Your personal content is stored on your personal hardware (“Personal Content”). Except in the limited circumstances described below, we do not collect filenames or content titles of your Personal Content. We do, however, keep usage statistics to allow us to better serve you and improve our Services.

This is discussed in detail below.

我们收集的信息

您可以选择向我们提供某些信息,例如,在创建用户配置文件时或使用服务时。我们也可能收集自动生成的信息和技术信息。因此,我们所拥有的信息(“已收集信息”)可能包括:

  1. 个人信息资料。您可能需要在创建帐户或编辑帐户信息时向我们提供个人信息资料,例如,您的电子邮件地址、用户名、个人照片和密码。您在注册付费服务时也可能向我们提供您的付款信息。
  2. Information from External Services. If you choose to connect your account to an account of an external service, such as a social networking site, we may collect certain information from those accounts, such as your name and email address as well as data required to connect to that service. You may provide such authorization during the connection process, or it may be implicit in the service authorization itself. For example, if you choose to connect your Plex account to a social networking account, we may collect your public profile information if you agree to the collection of this information during the connection process.
  3. Metadata for Personal Content. Except for certain exceptions such as Third-Party Control and Playback Mechanisms and image analysis (i.e., metadata about photos when these features are user-enabled, such as geotag information or scene recognition analysis), as described below, we do not collect or store metadata (information about the specific file, cover art, subtitles, running length, etc.) for Personal Content stored on your personal Plex Media Server. However, your Plex Media Server may anonymously send us filenames or other identifiers for your Personal Content for the sole purpose of providing metadata back to your personal Plex Media Server. You may disable this metadata matching capability.
  4. 具有第三方控制和回放机制的个人内容集成元数据。 我们也会提供具有第三方控制和回放机制的集成服务,比如Sonos、Amazon Alexa、IFTTT、Zapier、SmartThings、webhook等。为提供此类集成服务,我们会为您的个人内容收集需要与第三方控制和播放机制集成的元数据。例如,如果您在家使用亚马逊Alexa播放您账户中的特定歌曲或电影,我们的服务就会搜索您的个人内容,查找并播放您要求的歌曲或电影。您向第三方控制或者播放机制提供的信息不受隐私条款保护。
  5. 个人内容使用情况统计信息。我们可能会收集个人内容使用统计信息。包括有关您与服务交互的信息,例如,设备信息、持续时间、比特率、媒体格式、分辨率和媒体类型(音乐、照片、视频等)。如有可能,我们会概括这些信息以避免识别您的个人内容。使用情况统计信息不包括特定的内容标题或文件名。我们可能会使用与您使用服务有关的信息来运行和改进我们的服务,以便为您提供通讯信息及其他内容,并对此类内容进行定制化和个性化处理。
  6. Data Related to Third-Party Content. When you use the Services to watch, listen to, or record content from a third-party content provider or source such as any officially supported Third-Party Content that Plex streams to Plex apps, trailers and extras from Internet Video Archive (IVA), or use of our Live TV and DVR service, we may collect information related to that media interaction. For example, we may collect what program or movie you are watching and when, your interaction with any static or video advertising, etc. We may also collect your device information and device location, for example, by using your IP address or by asking for your zip code. We may use this information to run and improve our Services, provide advertising and marketing to you, as well as share anonymous or aggregated versions of the data with third parties.
  7. Information about integrated Third-Party Services. We may collect information about your use of third-party services for reporting to these partners and calculating the fees that we owe them. For example, we report the number of trailers and extras viewed to IVA. We may also collect information about third party services and your use of those services in order to serve video content and advertisements via features that rely on third party providers. This information can include the metadata needed to serve advertising.
  8. Information on our Services. We may store information about your configuration or use of our Services when you create a Plex Media Server on a local device, connect to a Plex Media Server that you or another person has configured, or download or connect to a Plex app, or interact with or use other Plex software or Service. This information may include an IP address and port number(s), the name of a Plex Media Server, and information used to secure access to our Services.
  9. 关于接口软件的信息。 “接口软件”包括但不限于服务插件、通道插件、元数据代理以及直接或间接与云服务通信的客户端应用程序。作为云服务的一部分,我们可能会存储您提供给Plex的接口软件的副本,并访问或调用Plex提供的任何软件。
  10. 调试信息和其他自愿提供的信息。您可以向我们发送有关您的设备、媒体和体验的日志、元数据或其他信息,以解决您可能遇到的问题,或者在提出建议说明您还期待那些功能。如果条件允许,我们会在客户端应用程序上提供选择不发送错误报告的功能。如果您想了解更多在错误报告中发送的信息,我们建议您查看用于访问Plex Services的第三方客户端应用程序的隐私政策。发送给我们的信息仅用于帮助解决您的问题和/或改进我们的服务。当您使用我们的服务并向我们提供此类信息,即表示您同意我们使用此类信息。
  11. 设备信息。与许多在线服务一样,我们可能会收集与访问我们服务器的设备有关的信息,例如,设备的IP地址、设备的操作系统和版本、用于访问Plex网页的浏览器、以及您使用的Plex技术的版本。我们可能也会收集访问我们服务器的设备的位置信息。
  12. 申请信息。当向Plex Media Server发送对信息或内容的请求时,我们可能会收集应用程序标识符,确定哪一个应用程序发送了请求。一个应用程序标识符标识一个应用程序的特定副本。例如,如果您从Plex下载应用程序,完全卸载该应用程序的副本,然后再从Plex重新下载应用程序,此时的标识符与之前卸载的应用程序的标识符是不同的。请注意,若简单地删除应用程序而不是完全卸载,则该应用程序标识符可能不会重置。
  13. Plex中继服务。我们可能会提供Plex中继服务,您可以选择使用Plex中继服务将您的个人内容连接或传输至其他设备。如果您选择使用Plex中继服务,我们将传输必要数据,以便提供服务。此类数据传输都以端对端加密的方式进行加密,Plex或Plex中继服务无法解密或查看任何数据。除非需要数据临时缓冲以提供理想流媒体传输体验,Plex不会储存通过Plex中继服务传输的数据。您可以通过关闭服务器设置中的远程访问来禁用Plex中继服务。
  14. Cookie和其他跟踪技术。像许多在线服务一样,Plex使用Cookie、跟踪像素和其他类似的技术来收集信息,以帮助我们向您提供我们的服务。我们还使用这些技术来向您和其他客户推销我们的产品和服务。有关这些技术的更多信息以及如何控制这些技术,请参阅跟踪技术的详细说明
  15. 获得同意。如果我们提供或曾经提供的任何产品或者功能发生改变,以及为了使用该产品或功能,需要对隐私政策未涵盖的信息收集和/或使用权限(包括个人内容)进行重大更改,我们将在收集和/或使用之前征得您的同意。
  16. 您收集的信息。如需查看、修改、删除或更正您的收集信息,请联系Plex支持服务。您的所有请求将在一个月内收到回复。
