Backup Your Series Reminder Data

Exporting Your Data to CSV

Downloading a local copy of your tracking history is incredibly simple. There are no complicated setups or API keys required:

1. Log into your Series Reminder account.
2. Go directly to our dedicated Data Backup utility (also linked on your Account Preferences page).
3. Click the Download CSV button. A raw spreadsheet file containing your history will download immediately to your local device.

What is Included in Your Export File?

Our exporter compiles your active records into a clean, comma-separated values (CSV) file that can be opened in Excel, Google Sheets, or any text editor. The export includes:

• Series Metadata: The name and TVDB ID for every show in your favorites list, along with your custom notification preferences.
• Episode Tracking: The name, season number, episode number, and TVDB ID of every episode of your favorite shows (including Season 0 Specials).
• Watch History: The exact watched or unwatched state of every single episode in your history.

Why Keep a Local Backup?

If you are planning to run a major data import (such as importing library files from Episode Calendar or Plex), I highly recommend downloading a quick CSV backup of your current history first. While our data imports are designed to be additive and safe, keeping a local backup on your computer is a standard engineering safety net that gives you complete peace of mind.

Our Commitment to Data Privacy

I believe in absolute data privacy. Series Reminder is designed to be as lightweight and non-invasive as possible. The only personal data this platform tracks is your email address, which is used strictly for authentication and daily alerts. Beyond that, the database only stores the TV shows and watch states you explicitly choose to log. I do not run tracking scripts, I do not log your physical location, and I will never sell your data.

Note on Account Tiers: Downloading a local CSV backup requires a Premium Subscription.
