7. International data transfers

FirstShow serves users in India and globally, and our subprocessors may process data outside your country (e.g., in the US, EU, or other regions). Where we transfer personal data internationally, we use appropriate safeguards, such as Standard Contractual Clauses (for GDPR/UK transfers) or equivalent measures, and we transfer only to jurisdictions permitted under the DPDP Act and applicable law.

8. Data retention

We keep personal data only as long as needed for the purposes above or as required by law:

Data Indicative retention Notes
Account data While your account is active; deleted or anonymized within 30 days of account deletion, subject to residual copies in backups
Date of birth While your account is active; deleted with your account Held as day, month and year, never shown to other users
Viewing / usage While your account is active (powers your watch history and recommendations); deleted with your account
Purchase / tax records 7 years or as required by tax/accounting law Legal obligation
Coin wallet and coin ledger Retained with purchase records (7 years) Deleting your account ends access to any balance; it is not recoverable and not transferable to a new account
Diagnostics (crash/error reports) 90 days
Support / grievance records Until resolved, then up to 3 years for audit and dispute purposes
Backups Rolling cycle; expired copies are purged within 60 days

Where a longer period is required by law (e.g., tax, accounting, or dispute resolution), we retain only what is necessary for that purpose.

9. Your rights and how to exercise them

Depending on where you live, you have some or all of the rights below. To exercise any right, contact contact@unscript.ai or use in-app settings; we will verify your identity and respond within the legally required time (e.g., DPDP: within a reasonable period; GDPR: within one month; CCPA: within 45 days). Where required by applicable law, we also honour recognised universal opt-out preference signals (e.g., Global Privacy Control).

We will not discriminate against you for exercising these rights.

10. Children’s data

FirstShow is not directed to and is not intended for children. Under the DPDP Act, a child is anyone under 18, and processing a child’s data requires verifiable parental consent; the Act also prohibits tracking, behavioural monitoring, and targeted advertising directed at children. We require account holders to be at least 18, we do not knowingly collect children’s data, and we do not run behavioural advertising to anyone. If we learn we have collected a child’s data without the required consent, we will delete it. Parents/guardians who believe a child has provided data may contact contact@unscript.ai.

11. Security

We use technical and organisational measures appropriate to the risk, including encryption in transit (HTTPS/TLS), signed and token-gated video playback (Cloudflare Stream), access controls, scoped per-user data access (reviewed for IDOR/injection), hardened payment-webhook verification, and monitoring. No system is perfectly secure; in the event of a personal-data breach we will notify the Data Protection Board of India and affected individuals as required (the DPDP framework contemplates reporting to the Board, with detailed reporting expected within short statutory timelines), and comply with GDPR (72-hour) and other applicable breach-notification laws.

12. Cookies and similar technologies

The FirstShow website uses cookies and local storage for essential functionality, security, and limited analytics. See the Cookie Policy. The mobile apps use device/local storage rather than browser cookies.

13. Platform-specific disclosures

14. Grievance Officer (India - DPDP Act & IT Rules)

Complaints are acknowledged within 24 hours and resolved within 15 days under the IT Rules, 2021; data-protection grievances are handled within the period required by the DPDP Act.

15. Changes to this Policy

We may update this Policy and will post the new version with a revised effective date; for material changes we will provide reasonable notice. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance where permitted by law.
