STB Loaders — Privacy Policy
How STB Loaders handles USB access, reports, support requests, ads and updates
Effective date
15 October 2026
Overview
STB Loaders runs firmware operations locally. Internet is required for the mandatory update check before opening the app. A running receiver write continues if Internet is lost.
Data accessed on the device
The app reads selected firmware and USB adapter details. Developer options and debugging status are checked locally. It does not change device settings.
Local application data
Settings and update policy are private. Error reports expire after seven days, with twelve reports per process. Firmware bytes and transfer checkpoints are not saved in reports.
Advertising and consent
Google Mobile Ads may process device or other identifiers (including the advertising identifier when available), approximate location inferred from network information, app interactions and diagnostic information to serve, measure and protect advertising. Google UMP is used to request and manage advertising consent where required. Advertising privacy choices can be reopened from Settings when UMP requires that entry point. Google's own privacy terms and consent controls govern this processing.
Receiver data and network sharing
STB Loaders does not intentionally send firmware files, receiver communication or support reports to Google advertising services. Successful operation reports may be sent automatically to STB Loaders without the user's name or email. Error reports are sent only when the user taps Submit Report and provides a name and valid email address. Reports are not offered through Share or Save actions. General support requests are user-initiated and may include a message plus up to three screenshots. Standard network information such as an IP address is visible to the hosting provider during HTTPS requests.
Permissions and system services
USB Host, a connected-device foreground service, notifications and a wake lock support receiver updates. Files use the system picker. Internet supports updates, ads and support. Floating progress is optional, off by default and does not read other apps or show ads. Denying its display permission does not block programming.
Retention and deletion
Private error reports expire after seven days and are removed at the next cleanup. They are deleted after successful submission. You can clear app data to remove them. For deletion of submitted support records, contact official support. Reports are not public files.
Children
STB Loaders is a technical hardware-service utility and is not directed to children.
Reports and support submissions
Reports contain device/app versions, USB adapter and driver details, session, profile, stage, firmware size/hash and error details. Firmware bytes and adapter serial numbers are excluded. Error reports require your action to send. Name and email are used only for support.
Changes and contact
This policy may be updated when app features, data practices or legal requirements change. Support and privacy contact details are provided through the official Khan Dish Network website and the Google Play listing for STB Loaders.
Your choices and data deletion
Advertising consent can be reviewed from Settings > Privacy & ad choices where required. To ask for a copy or deletion of a support or error report you submitted, email support@khandishnetwork.net or send a request from Settings > Support in the app (include the email address used for the report). Automatic success reports do not contain your name or email address.
