Privacy Policy

Last updated: 11 November 2026

m3u8.space is a static documentation website. We do not operate user accounts, do not require registration, and do not ask you to submit personal information in order to read our content or use the player tester.

The player tester

The HLS player runs entirely in your browser. The URL you paste is sent directly from your browser to the server hosting that stream. It is not transmitted to, logged by, or stored on m3u8.space. We do not proxy, record or inspect any stream you test.

Server logs

Our hosting provider (Cloudflare) may process technical request data such as IP address, browser type, requested page and timestamp for security, abuse prevention and service operation, in accordance with Cloudflare's own privacy policy. We do not build advertising profiles from this data.

Cookies and third-party advertising

We may display ads served by Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies, device identifiers or similar technologies to measure ad performance and, where permitted, to personalise advertising. You can control personalised ads through your Google Ad Settings. Visitors in regions that require consent will be shown a consent notice where applicable.

Third-party vendors may also set cookies for analytics or ad measurement. We do not control these cookies and recommend reviewing your browser's cookie settings.

Analytics

If we enable aggregated traffic analytics, it is used solely to understand which documentation pages are useful. We do not use it to identify individual visitors.

External links and embedded resources

Some pages load open-source libraries from a public CDN (for example hls.js from jsDelivr). Those providers may receive your IP address as part of serving the file. External sites linked from our articles have their own privacy practices.

Children

This is a technical reference for developers and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.

Your choices and contact

You can browse with cookies disabled, use an ad blocker, or clear cookies at any time; the documentation remains fully readable. For privacy questions, see the contact page.

Changes

We may update this policy as the site evolves. The date at the top reflects the current version.
