What Bingr is

A tracker for the series you watch, with a room behind each episode where the only people who can read and write are the ones who have reached it. It is free. There is nothing to buy, no advertising, and no paid tier.

Bingr does not host, stream or link to video. It knows which episodes exist and where a series can be watched from; playing anything happens somewhere else entirely.

It is run by Nicolas Negrier, a private individual in France, not by a company. “We” on these pages means him. He can be reached at hello@bingr.watch, and a postal address is given to anyone who asks for one there.

Your account

You need to be 16 or older to have an account, and creating one means confirming you are. We do not ask for a date of birth. An account we learn belongs to someone younger is closed and its data deleted.

One account per email address, and signing in means receiving a code at that address. That makes the inbox the key: whoever can read it can sign in as you. There is no password to change if that stops being true — changing the address, or closing the account, is the remedy.

You can delete your account from Settings, at any moment, and it happens immediately with no grace period. What that removes and what survives it is set out on the privacy page.

What you write stays yours

Your messages, your ratings and your lists belong to you. We store them and show them inside Bingr, to the people your settings and the spoiler rules allow — that is the whole of what we do with them. They are not licensed to anyone, not sold, and not used to train anything.

You are answerable for what you post, and the community guidelines are part of these terms. They say what does not belong here, how reporting and blocking work, how fast a report is looked at, and what a repeated breach costs — in that order, with the scale fixed in advance so a decision can be explained rather than argued.

Writing what happens later in a series, to people who have not got there, is the one rule that belongs to this product rather than to the internet in general. It is treated as seriously as the rest of that list.

Where the show data comes from

Titles, summaries, air dates, posters and stills come from TMDB. Episode ordering falls back to TheTVDB where TMDB has a series wrong, which happens more often than anyone would like on long-running shows.

This product uses TMDB and the TMDB APIs but is not endorsed, certified, or otherwise approved by TMDB.

None of it is ours, and none of it is guaranteed. An episode can be missing, misnumbered or differently split from what you watched — that is a property of catalogues, not a defect we can promise away.

What is not promised

Bingr is young and runs on one small server. There is no uptime commitment, features can change or be withdrawn, and a bug can lose an evening of ticks. It should not be the only record of anything you would mind losing — which is why an import can be replayed and its rows exported.

An account can be suspended or closed if it breaks the guidelines, on the published scale. Outside that, the account is yours for as long as the service exists.

What we are answerable for

Bingr is free, and is offered as it is. We answer for the direct and foreseeable harm our own failings cause you. We do not answer for indirect loss — time spent, an evening of ticks to redo, a choice made on the strength of what a catalogue said — nor for what other people write, nor for what TMDB or TheTVDB get wrong, nor for the service being interrupted, changed or ended.

None of that limits anything the law does not allow to be limited. It does not apply to harm done deliberately or through gross negligence, nor to injury to a person, and it does not take away any right you have as a consumer that a contract cannot set aside.

If we disagree

Write first, to hello@bingr.watch. Most disagreements end there, and nothing else on this page is faster.

These terms are governed by French law, and a dispute about them goes before the French courts. If you live elsewhere in the European Union, that choice does not take away the protections the law of your own country gives you and that no contract can set aside, nor your right to bring a claim where you live.

French law gives consumers the right to a free mediator in a dispute with a business. Bingr is run by an individual, free of charge and not as a trade, so as far as we understand it that scheme does not cover it, and no mediator is named here. That is our reading rather than a ruling: if it proves wrong, a mediator will be named on this page.

If this page changes

The date at the top moves when the text does. There is no mailing list to announce a change on — we do not send that kind of email — so that date is the honest signal, and it is the one to check.

Asking
