Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how HiAnime collects, uses, protects, and handles information when you visit our website, stream catalog content, or create an account to synchronize your watch library.
You can browse, search, and explore our full catalog without creating an account. We do not sell your personal browsing history to third-party data brokers.
Account authentication and passwords are encrypted and managed using industry-leading security infrastructure. We never store plain-text passwords.
We operate an indexing directory and proxy handler. Your personal identity is never shared with external third-party video storage hosts.
You have full autonomy over your library. You can update your profile, clear your watch progress, or delete your account at any time.
The information we collect depends on how you interact with HiAnime:
When you choose to register an account, we collect your email address, username, and authentication identifiers. If you register via OAuth (such as Google or Discord), we receive basic profile info (email and display name) permitted by your provider permissions.
To provide cross-device sync, we securely store your watchlist entries, favorite anime lists, playback timestamps (e.g. current episode and progress seconds), and player preferences (such as autoplay and skip-intro toggles).
When connecting to our web servers, standard HTTP request metadata is automatically processed, including your browser type, device operating system, requested URL paths, and general IP address for regional caching and DDoS mitigation.
We use the information we collect exclusively for legitimate service operations, including:
HiAnime uses minimal browser cookies and local storage items strictly necessary for core platform functionality:
To maintain high reliability, speed, and security, we partner with specialized cloud infrastructure providers:
User identity, password verification, two-factor authentication, and OAuth login flows are managed by Clerk under enterprise security standards.
Synchronized user watchlists, favorites, and watch history records are stored in dedicated encrypted PostgreSQL cloud instances.
Global CDN edge nodes accelerate user interface delivery, handle playlist proxies, and shield the service against DDoS threats.
External Media Hosts: Video streams are delivered via non-affiliated third-party hosts. When video streams load in the player, your browser connects directly to those providers. We recommend reviewing the privacy practices of external networks you interact with.
Regardless of your physical location, we respect your rights regarding your personal information:
HiAnime does not knowingly collect or solicit personal information from children under the age of 13. If you are under 13, please do not register for an account or provide any personal information. If we learn that we have collected personal data from a child under 13 without verified parental consent, we will promptly delete that information.
We may revise this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in regulatory standards, features, or service operations. Significant revisions will be reflected by the “Effective Date” at the top of this document. Continued use of HiAnime following posted updates constitutes acceptance of the modified policy.
