KJ Tube

Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 13, 2026

KJ Tube is an iPhone app for watching YouTube on purpose: you follow creators, set a daily amount, and get a short list of their videos each day. It is made by KJ Rainey ("we").

The short version

• There are no accounts. We do not collect, sell or share your personal information.
• What you do in the app (who you follow, your settings, what you watched) is saved only on your iPhone.
• The app shows videos through YouTube, so YouTube and Google handle data under their own policies.

YouTube API Services

KJ Tube uses YouTube API Services to find creators, list their videos, and play them in YouTube's embedded player.

• By using KJ Tube you agree to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service.
• Google's handling of data is described in the Google Privacy Policy.

When a video plays, YouTube's player runs inside the app. YouTube may collect information such as your device, IP address and what you watch, and may use cookies or similar technology on your device, just as it does for videos embedded on websites. We do not receive that information.

What is saved on your iPhone

• The creators you follow and their order
• Your daily amount and other settings
• The videos in your Inbox, which ones you watched, and how far you got
• Short-lived copies of public YouTube information (titles, thumbnails, lengths, creator names and pictures), refreshed regularly and never kept for more than 30 days without a refresh

This never leaves your phone. Deleting the app deletes all of it.

Import from YouTube (optional)

If you choose "Import from YouTube", you sign in with Google and let KJ Tube read your list of YouTube subscriptions (read-only access).

• The list is used once, on your phone, to let you pick creators to follow.
• Only the creators you pick are saved, on your iPhone. The sign-in is forgotten right after; KJ Tube keeps no Google token and never sees your password.
• We do not receive, store, share or sell your Google account information, and it is not used for advertising.
• You can remove KJ Tube's access any time at Google's security settings.

What we do not do

• No ads from us, no tracking, no analytics
• No selling or sharing of personal information
• No account, email or name asked for

Children

KJ Tube is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from children.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new date.
