Dino’s Jukebox privacy policy – last updated 23 October 2026
This privacy policy covers the Dino’s Jukebox app for iPhone and CarPlay, made by Dean Matthews.
The Dino’s Jukebox privacy policy in short
Dino’s Jukebox doesn’t collect, sell or share any information about you. There are no accounts with me, no adverts, no analytics and no tracking. Nothing about you or your music is ever sent to me.
What’s kept on your iPhone
To work, the jukebox keeps these on your iPhone only: the list of your songs and their artwork, the Hot Here play counts, your settings, songs you’ve downloaded, and copies of recently played songs. Downloads and played copies are left out of your iCloud backup.
Sign-ins
When you connect a music source, its sign-in details are kept in the iPhone’s keychain and are only ever sent to that source:
- Network shares, WebDAV, Kodi and Lyrion – the user name and password only go to that server.
- Plex – your Plex sign-in only goes to Plex (plex.tv, to sign in and find your server) and to your own Plex server.
- Synology Audio Station – your DSM user name and password only go to your own NAS. If you use a QuickConnect ID, that ID is sent to Synology (quickconnect.to) to find the NAS.
- Emby and Jellyfin – your user name and password only go to your own server.
- Subsonic and Navidrome – your password stays on the iPhone; only a one-off scrambled version of it is sent to that server.
- Dropbox – you sign in on Dropbox’s own page. The app only receives a key to read your files, kept in the keychain and only sent to Dropbox.
- UPnP / DLNA servers need no sign-in.
Who the jukebox talks to
Only the places you set up: your own servers and the services listed above. The app asks for Local Network access so it can find your servers on your Wi-Fi. Where you use a third-party service such as Plex, Synology or Dropbox, that service’s own privacy policy covers what it receives.
Two optional features look things up online, and both can be switched off in Configuration:
- Lyrics – a song’s title, artist, album and length are sent to LRCLIB (lrclib.net) to find its lyrics.
- Chart positions – a song’s title and artist are sent to Wikipedia (en.wikipedia.org) to find how high it got in the UK and US charts.
No information that identifies you is sent with these look-ups.
Removing your information
Configuration › Reset Jukebox forgets your songs, chart and music sources. Each source has its own Forget button that removes its sign-in, and Remove All Downloads deletes downloaded songs. Deleting the app removes everything it stored.
Children
The jukebox doesn’t knowingly collect information from anyone, including children.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new date.
