Privacy Policy

Who we are

9anime.com.bz (“we”, “our”, “the Site”) is a lightweight index that helps fans discover anime episodes and where to watch them. We do not host videos. We organize titles, episodes, and outgoing links to third-party providers.

What we collect

  • Technical & usage data: IP address, device/browser info, pages viewed, referrer/exit pages, timestamps, approximate location inferred from IP, and error logs.

  • Cookies & similar tech: Small files to keep preferences, measure performance, prevent abuse, and (where used) support advertising or analytics.

  • Contact & request data: If you email us or use a form, we process your email, name/nickname (if provided), and message contents.

  • DMCA/copyright data: If you send a takedown, we process the information you include (e.g., name, organization, proof of authorization, URLs).

Why we collect it (legal bases)

  • Provide and improve the service (legitimate interests / contract).

  • Security & anti-abuse (legitimate interests / legal obligation).

  • Analytics & performance (legitimate interests; where required, consent).

  • Communications (legitimate interests / consent).

  • Compliance with applicable laws and requests from authorities (legal obligation).

Cookies & controls

Your browser lets you block or delete cookies. In regions where consent is required, you may see a cookie banner. Blocking some cookies can affect features like remembering your preferences or keeping you signed in (if such features exist).

Typical categories we may use

  • Strictly Necessary: site core, security, caching.

  • Performance/Analytics: traffic measurement, error tracking.

  • Functionality: remember settings (e.g., last server you used).

  • Advertising (if enabled): frequency capping, ad delivery, measurement.

  • Security/Fraud: detect unusual or automated behavior.

Third-party content & links

We link to and/or embed third-party players and hosts. Those services may set their own cookies or collect data under their own privacy policies. We do not control their practices—please review their terms on their sites.

Sharing your information

We may share limited data with:

  • Service providers (hosting, CDN/DDoS protection, uptime/error monitoring, email delivery) under confidentiality obligations.

  • Analytics/Ad partners (only relevant data; subject to consent where required).

  • Legal/regulatory bodies if we must comply with law or protect our rights or users.

  • Business transfer scenarios (e.g., merger or acquisition), with safeguards.

We do not sell personal information. In jurisdictions where cross-site advertising may be considered “sale” or “sharing,” you can opt out (see the Your rights section).

Retention

  • Server logs: typically up to 90 days, unless needed longer for investigations.

  • Support/DMCA records: typically 12–24 months after resolution, or longer if legally required.

  • Analytics/ads cookies: according to each provider’s stated lifetime or until you delete them.

Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect data (e.g., encryption in transit, access controls). No system is 100% secure.

International transfers

Our service providers may process data in countries other than yours. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards to protect your information.

Your rights

Depending on your region, you may have rights to:

  • Access, correct, or delete your personal data.

  • Object to or restrict certain processing.

  • Withdraw consent (affects future processing).

  • Data portability (get a copy in a usable format).

  • File a complaint with your local authority.

California residents (CCPA/CPRA): you can request to know, delete, or correct personal information and opt out of “sale”/“sharing” related to cross-context ads. See the “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link (below).

EEA/UK residents (GDPR): our primary legal bases are listed above. Contact us to exercise rights; you may also complain to your local supervisory authority.

Children’s privacy

The Site is not intended for children under 13 (or higher age as defined by local law, e.g., 16 in parts of the EEA). If you believe a child provided data, contact us and we’ll take appropriate action.

Changes to this policy

We 9anime may update this notice from time to time. The “Last updated” date reflects the current version.
