Legal
Legal disclaimer
Phantom Stream is an independent search interface for publicly reachable media. It stores no media library and has no control over the third-party services it connects to. Most playback is direct; a constrained compatibility relay may transmit media bytes when a public source cannot be requested by a browser. This page sets out what the service does, what it does not do, and where responsibility sits.
No stored media library
Phantom Stream operates no media library or content delivery network and persistently stores no video or audio. It does not upload, mirror, transcode, re-encode, seed, or retain media files.
When you ask for a title, the service queries publicly reachable third-party services and returns the addresses they publish. Browser-ready media is requested directly from the third party. For a public source whose media endpoints reject ordinary browser requests, the service may use a narrowly allowlisted compatibility relay that streams responses without persistent storage.
This project does not select, review, approve, or moderate what third parties choose to make available. It supports no paid or authenticated media services and does not bypass DRM.
No affiliation
Phantom Stream is an independent project. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, approved by, or connected with any studio, distributor, streaming platform, catalog provider, or media host, nor with any of their parents, subsidiaries, or affiliates.
Titles, artwork, logos, brand names, service names, trade dress, and associated marks that appear here remain the property of their respective owners. They appear only to identify the works a user has asked about, and their appearance implies no sponsorship, partnership, endorsement, authorization, or source relationship.
Authorized use only
You may use this service only to reach content that you own, control, have explicit permission to access, or are otherwise legally entitled to access under the law that applies to you.
You are solely responsible for confirming that your use complies with copyright law, licensing terms, platform rules, contractual obligations, and local regulations in your jurisdiction. Where a rights holder's licence, a platform's terms, or a contractual restriction prohibits access, copying, public performance, or redistribution, you must not use this service in a way that conflicts with those restrictions.
Your responsibility
By using Phantom Stream you represent that you hold every right, permission, and legal authority necessary for the content you reach through it, and you accept full responsibility for that use.
You agree not to use the service for infringement, for circumvention of technical protection measures, for unauthorized redistribution, or for any unlawful purpose.
Third-party services and availability
Everything this interface returns originates from independent third parties over which this project has no control, no ownership, and no oversight. Their availability, accuracy, legality, safety, and conduct are their own. A link, a search result, or a successful playback attempt is not an endorsement of a third party or a representation about the legality of what it serves.
Those services may change, break, restrict access, or disappear at any time, and this project may stop working in whole or in part as a result. Metadata is supplied by open catalogs and may be incomplete or wrong.
No warranty
Phantom Streamis provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, availability, or accuracy. No guarantee is made that the service will be uninterrupted, that any particular title will be reachable, or that any information shown is correct.
Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the operators of Phantom Stream will not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages arising out of or related to your use of, or inability to use, the service, or to anything obtained from a third party through it.
This limitation applies regardless of the theory of liability and includes, without limitation, claims relating to copyright, trademark, misrepresentation, data loss, business interruption, third-party conduct, third-party claims, or reliance on anything shown here.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions of warranties or limitations of liability. Where that is the case, the exclusions and limitations above apply only to the fullest extent that jurisdiction permits, and nothing here removes a right you hold that cannot be waived.
Changes and severability
Access may be refused, restricted, or withdrawn, features may be removed, and this disclaimer may be updated at any time without notice. Continued use after a change means you accept the revised terms.
If any provision of this disclaimer is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay in effect to the fullest extent permitted by law.
