Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how xdoga.com ("xdoga", "we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you visit our website. The website is operated and administered by Van Gillian ("the Administrator"). By using xdoga.com you agree to the practices described in this policy.
1. Adults Only (18+)
xdoga.com may contain adult-oriented material and is intended solely for adults aged 18 years or older (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, whichever is higher). The website is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of 18. If you believe a minor has provided us with information, please contact us so we can remove it.
2. Information We Collect
You can browse xdoga.com without an account. If you choose to create an account — by email and password — to sync your activity across your devices or to upload content, we collect the additional account information described below. We do not ask for payment details. We collect:
- Account information. If you register, we store your email address and a securely hashed (never plain-text) password. You may delete your account by contacting us using the details below.
- Synced activity. If you are signed in, your viewing history, saved items, liked items, and saved creators are stored on our servers and linked to your account so they are available across your devices. If you are not signed in, this data stays only on your device.
- Uploaded content. If you upload a video, the video file and its thumbnail are stored on our cloud storage provider (Cloudflare R2), and the caption, display name, and related metadata are stored in our database. Uploaded videos are published and become publicly viewable by anyone. Do not upload content unless you are at least 18, you hold the necessary rights, and every person depicted is an adult who has consented to publication.
- Information collected automatically. When you visit the site, our servers and infrastructure may automatically record technical data such as your IP address, approximate region, browser type and language, device type, operating system, referring page, and the date and time of your request.
- Usage data. We may record which pages and videos you view in order to operate features such as continuous playback and content recommendations.
- Data stored on your device. Your viewing history, saved items, "liked" items, language preference, and similar settings are stored locally in your browser (for example via cookies and local storage) and are used to provide those features.
3. Third-Party Content
xdoga.com aggregates and links to publicly available video content and media hosted on third-party platforms, including X (formerly Twitter) and its media servers. When such content is displayed or played, your browser may connect directly to those third parties, which may collect data (such as your IP address) under their own privacy policies. We do not control and are not responsible for the data practices of those third parties.
4. Cookies and Local Storage
We and our advertising partners use cookies, local storage, and similar technologies to:
- remember your language and display preferences;
- maintain your viewing history, saved items, and liked items;
- understand how the site is used and improve its performance; and
- deliver and measure advertising.
You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings and clear your local storage at any time. Disabling cookies may affect features such as history and preferences.
5. Advertising
We display advertising provided by third-party advertising networks, including ExoClick. These networks may use cookies, web beacons, device identifiers, and similar technologies to serve advertisements that may be relevant to you and to measure their performance. This may involve collecting information about your visits to this and other websites.
We do not control the data collected by these advertising partners. To learn more about ExoClick's practices and to manage your advertising preferences, please review the ExoClick Privacy Policy.
6. How We Use Information
We use the information described above to:
- operate, maintain, and secure the website;
- provide core features such as playback, history, and recommendations;
- display and measure advertising;
- analyze usage and improve the service; and
- detect, prevent, and respond to abuse, fraud, or technical issues.
7. Legal Bases for Processing
Where the EU/UK General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) applies, we process personal data on the basis of our legitimate interests in operating and securing the website, your consent (for example, for non-essential cookies and personalized advertising where required), and compliance with legal obligations.
8. Sharing of Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited information with service providers and advertising partners who help us operate the site, and we may disclose information where required by law or to protect our rights, users, or the public.
9. Data Retention
Technical and usage logs are retained only for as long as reasonably necessary to operate, secure, and improve the site, after which they are deleted or anonymized. Data stored locally in your browser remains until you clear it.
10. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights under the GDPR, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), or other applicable laws, including the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information. To exercise these rights, contact us using the details below. You may also manage advertising preferences through the links in the "Advertising" section.
11. International Transfers
Your information may be processed and stored in countries other than the one in which you reside. Where required, we take steps to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place for such transfers.
12. Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
13. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above. Your continued use of the site after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
