What this site collects.
Short version: no accounts, no forms, nothing you type. Only anonymous measurement of how many people visit and download — and none of it starts until you agree to it.
Last updated 17 August 2026
The app itself collects nothing
This page is about the website. Torrent Live, the desktop application, has no telemetry, no analytics and no phone-home of any kind. It talks to BitTorrent peers and trackers because that is what a torrent client does, and to nothing belonging to us. There is no server on our side that it could report to.
What the website collects
Only if you accept the cookie banner:
| What | Why | Who |
|---|---|---|
| Page views | How many people find the site | Google Analytics (Firebase) |
| Download clicks | Which platform people actually use | Google Analytics (Firebase) |
| Approximate location, browser, device | Collected automatically by the analytics tool | Google Analytics (Firebase) |
| Advertising cookies | To show and measure ads, if ads are enabled | Google AdSense |
We never see your name, email or address, because the site never asks for them. There is no login, no newsletter and no contact form.
Nothing loads until you say yes
If measurement or advertising is switched on, you get a banner before any third-party script runs. Decline and none of it loads at all — not throttled, not anonymised, simply never fetched. Google Consent Mode signals default to denied and are only updated if you accept.
Changed your mind? Use Cookie settings in the footer of the main page. Withdrawing is as easy as giving.
Your choice is remembered in your browser's localStorage under
tl-consent. That never leaves your device. Clearing site data
resets it and you'll be asked again.
Server logs
The site is hosted on Firebase Hosting, which keeps standard web server logs including IP addresses. This is ordinary infrastructure logging that happens on essentially every website, is not tied to the analytics above, and is not something the consent banner controls. Google acts as the host and processes those logs under its own terms.
Where downloads come from
The installers are served by GitHub Releases, not by this site. Clicking a download button sends you to GitHub, and GitHub sees that request under its own privacy policy.
Your rights
If you are in the EU, UK or another region with comparable law, you have the right to access, correct, export or delete personal data held about you, and to withdraw consent at any time. Because the site collects no identifying information, in practice the meaningful controls are:
- Decline the banner, or withdraw via Cookie settings
- Clear your browser's cookies and site data for this domain
- Use Google's own Ad Settings to control ad personalisation across all sites
- Use a tracker-blocking extension — nothing here will break if you do
Children
This site is not aimed at children and does not knowingly collect anything from them.
Changes
If what the site collects changes, this page changes with it and the date at the top moves. Material changes will reset the consent banner rather than quietly carrying your old answer forward.
