Last updated 7 October 2026. Applies to the Kickon app and Safari extension for Mac, iPhone and iPad, and to this website.
Kickon collects no personal data. It has no server, no user accounts and no analytics. Nothing you see or type is sent to the developer, and there is no system anywhere that could receive it.
Kickon asks Safari for access to kick.com only. On kick.com pages it reads the page, mainly the chat, so it can add its features: showing deleted messages, highlighting mentions, previewing links, adding emotes and so on. All of this happens in Safari on your device. Kickon cannot see any other website you visit.
The Kickon app explains how to turn the extension on, and has a player for Kick streams, opened by Player in the extension's view switcher. The app connects to the network only while that player shows a stream, and only to Kick (see below). It cannot see what you do in Safari.
Everything Kickon keeps is stored on your device, in Safari or in the app:
Kickon
!commands with the bot's last answer (or the one you wrote), the player's volume,
whether you hid the message box, and when you last saw each channel's chat
(so missed messages can be filled in).
If you are signed in to iCloud, your settings (except text size), your
saved phrases, your notes about users, which 7TV emotes you use most and the
channels' learned !commands are also kept in your own
iCloud account, using Apple's
iCloud key-value storage, so your Mac, iPhone and iPad share them. That
storage belongs to your Apple Account: the developer has no access to it and
cannot read it. The mentions inbox, the caches and everything in memory stay
on the device. Nothing else is uploaded anywhere by Kickon.
To do its job, Kickon makes requests from your browser, or from the app's player, to these services. They receive what any website you open receives, such as your IP address. Kickon tells them only what it is looking up (a channel, an emote set, a link) and nothing about you.
kick.com, web.kick.com,
files.kick.com and its video service
*.live-video.net): stream details, chat history after the page
slept, the video and audio stream for the native player and the app's
player, the streamer's picture for the lock screen, and the channel's own
links (to find its donate page).
7tv.io): emotes, name paints and badges.
api.fxtwitter.com): titles and
thumbnails for link previews, only for links someone posts in chat.
Each of these services has its own privacy policy.
With Block ads & trackers on (the default), Kickon tells Safari to block requests that kick.com makes to advertising and analytics services, such as Google's ad and analytics domains, Amazon ads, Datadog, Datazoom and Mux. This uses Safari's built-in blocking rules: Kickon does not see or keep the blocked requests. You can turn it off in the settings panel.
Only what Apple reports to any developer with an app on the App Store: the number of downloads, crashes and ratings, in aggregate. This comes from Apple, not from Kickon, and does not identify you. If you have turned off Share With App Developers in your device's analytics settings, Apple does not include your device at all.
Kickon contains no advertising, no analytics SDK, no crash reporter and no tracking pixel. The extension is plain JavaScript and CSS, and the entire source is published at github.com/lakafior/Kickoff under the Mozilla Public License 2.0, so you can check all of this.
This site is static HTML hosted on Cloudflare Pages. It sets no cookies and loads no trackers, ads or third-party fonts. A small script from smigi.net draws the window frame. Cloudflare processes requests to serve the page and may keep short-lived operational logs, as any web host does.
Delete the Kickon app and Safari removes the extension and its storage. To clear what Kickon kept in kick.com's site storage, remove kick.com's website data in Safari: on Mac, Safari › Settings › Privacy › Manage Website Data; on iPhone and iPad, Settings › Apps › Safari › Advanced › Website Data. Because the developer holds nothing, there is no request to send and nobody to ask.
Kickon is not directed at children and collects no data from anyone, including children.
Kickon is an independent project. It is not made, endorsed or supported by Kick. What Kick does with your data is covered by Kick's own privacy policy.
If this policy changes, the revised version will be published here with a new date.
