This privacy policy describes how One Happy Jukebox (“the Service”) handles information when you use the jukebox client at happyjukebox.com and related browser extension software.
If you operate the jukebox on the host computer using our Chrome extension and sign in with Google or Facebook, we receive your email address from that sign-in provider. We use your email address only to look up your subscription status—for example, whether you have a paid unlimited plan or are on the free tier. This lookup happens when you sign in and may be refreshed periodically while you use the extension, including if you are not currently subscribed or are on the free tier.
Your email address and subscription status are sent to our subscription status service (operated for this purpose) so we can enforce plan limits and provide the correct features on the host. OAuth profile information (including your email) may also be stored locally in the Chrome extension on the host computer while you remain signed in.
This does not apply to guests. People who join your jukebox by scanning a QR code on their phone use the jukebox client only. They are not asked to sign in with OAuth, and we do not collect their email addresses for subscription purposes.
We do not maintain a central account database or long-term profile about you on our servers. Preferences you set—such as your display name, language choice, search history, and jukebox connection details—are kept on your own device only (for example in your browser’s local storage) unless you clear them yourself.
When you join a jukebox session, your song choices, queue updates, display name, and related session messages are sent directly to the jukebox you are connected to (the host running the extension at that venue). That transmission uses peer-to-peer networking between your device and the host; it is not uploaded to a separate cloud service operated by us for the purpose of building user profiles.
On the jukebox host, session and queue information exists only for the purpose of running the current session. After the videos you selected have been played and the session data is no longer needed for playback, that information is discarded rather than retained for marketing or analytics.
When you search for songs, the text of your search query may be saved for up to one week in the jukebox host’s browser storage (on the venue computer running the extension). This short-term cache helps repeat searches load faster and reduces API usage. These saved search terms are not associated with your display name or any other information that identifies who searched for them.
When you use the Chrome extension on the host computer, the extension may read data from YouTube pages you load in your browser—for example, to support search, queue management, or playback. This processing happens only on that host computer. We do not store that page data on our servers or transmit it to our servers; it is processed locally by the extension and discarded when no longer needed for operation.
The Service or the site that serves the client may use cookies or similar browser storage technologies where needed for basic operation, security, or your preferences. You can control cookies through your browser settings.
Searching for and playing videos may involve third-party video services. Those services have their own privacy policies and may collect information according to their terms. We do not control third-party data practices.
The Service is intended for use in social or venue settings under the supervision of the jukebox operator. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through a dedicated registration process because we do not operate such registration.
We may update this policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page will change when we do.
Questions about this policy may be directed to the operator of the jukebox installation you are using, or to info@happyjukebox.com.
