Privacy Policy

Effective July 27, 2026

JellyStreamz respects the difference between your personal media library and the small amount of information needed to run this website.

Website accounts

When you create an account, we store your name, email address, password hash, optional mobile number, communication choices, and basic security records such as login timestamps and privacy-preserving network hashes. We never store your password in readable form.

Email and text choices

Email and SMS updates are optional and unchecked by default. We record when and where a preference changes so your choices can be honored. You can change them from your account. For text messages, reply STOP to opt out or HELP for help. Message and data rates may apply.

Your Jellyfin library

The JellyStreamz apps connect directly to the Jellyfin servers you choose. Jellyfin remains responsible for your libraries, users, watch progress, favorites, playlists, and playback history. The public JellyStreamz website does not receive or host your personal media catalog.

Game database contributions

If you suggest a game or submit artwork, we store the information you provide, your account identifier, moderation history, and a privacy-preserving network hash. Uploaded images remain private while pending review. Approved artwork and its description, source, credit, or license information may become publicly available in the game catalog and app scraper. Rejected upload data may be retained briefly for abuse prevention and moderation records, then removed according to our retention practices.

Game files and fingerprints

The public catalog does not host ROMs. The app can identify games using normalized filenames, aliases, and hashes calculated on your device. The scraper uses fingerprints without receiving your local file path or game contents.

Supporter gameplay previews

Active paid Patreon supporters can link apps and Jellyfin plugins with a short device code. We store a one-way hash of each device token, membership status, tier name, and recent verification or use timestamps. Gameplay preview requests are authorized by JellyStreamz and do not reveal your Patreon credentials to the app or plugin.

Trailers and outside services

Trailer playback may use YouTube. Donations are handled by Patreon. Those services receive information according to their own privacy policies when you visit or use them.

Security and retention

We use encrypted connections, access controls, rate limits, and security logs. Account and consent records are kept while your account is active or as reasonably needed for security, legal obligations, and honoring opt-out requests.

Your choices

You may ask to access, correct, or delete your website account information by contacting hello@jellystreamz.com.

Changes

We may update this policy as JellyStreamz grows. The effective date above will change when the policy materially changes.
