Privacy Policy
Last updated: 31 August 2026
✓
Relayo collects nothing. No account, no servers, no
analytics. Everything happens on your own device and your local
network.
What we never collect
- Personal information of any kind
- The contents of your screen
- The files you play
- Audio from your device
- Usage statistics or analytics
- Device identifiers or advertising IDs
- Your IP address or location
We have no servers. Even if we wanted your data, there is nowhere for it to go.
How casting works
- Relayo starts a small web server on your Mac or iPhone and tells your TV where to find it
- Your screen or file goes directly from your device to your TV over your local network
- This traffic never leaves your home — not through us, not through Google, not through anyone
- Casting keeps working even if your internet connection drops
- The local server runs only while you're casting, and only accepts connections from your own network
Permissions, and why
Screen Recording
(Mac)
(Mac)
Required by macOS to mirror your screen. Read only while you're
actively casting, and only to send to the device you picked.
Nothing is recorded or saved.
Screen Broadcast
(iPhone, iPad)
(iPhone, iPad)
iOS mirrors through its own broadcast picker, which you start
yourself. The broadcast runs only while you keep it running, and
the frames go straight to your TV. Nothing is recorded or saved.
Local Network
Required to find your TV and send data to it. Relayo only talks to
devices on your own network.
Files and photos
When you choose a file, the system grants access to that one file.
On iPhone you can pick from Photos or Files; Relayo never browses
your library on its own.
What Apple collects
- Relayo is distributed through the App Store
- Apple collects download and usage data, and gives us anonymous, aggregated reports — such as how many people downloaded the app in a country
- This is collected by Apple, not by us. We cannot identify anyone from it
- See Apple's Privacy Policy for how they handle it
The diagnostic log
- Relayo keeps a short technical log on your device so casting problems can be diagnosed
- It records connection events: the local address of your TV, the steps of the Cast protocol, timings and error codes
- It never contains what you cast — no screen content, no video or audio, no file names
- Only your last two sessions are kept; each new one replaces the oldest, so nothing accumulates
- It is never uploaded, and we never receive it automatically
- It leaves your device only if you send it: Report a problem in Settings opens your mail app with the log attached, addressed to us — you can read it, remove the attachment, or cancel
- If you do send it, we use it only for the problem you described and delete it once that's resolved
Nothing here is collected in the background. The log sits on your device doing nothing until you decide to send it.
The contact form
- This is on the website, not in the app — the app only opens a link
- What you type is sent to us as an email, and nothing else is stored
- Your email address is used only to reply — never for a mailing list, never shared
- The country your request came from is included, because regional network and device differences explain a lot of problems
- You don't have to use it — writing directly works just as well
Children
Relayo collects no data from anyone, including children under 13.
Changes
- If Relayo changes in a way that affects privacy, this page is updated and the date at the top changes
- Material changes are also noted in the app's release notes
