JukaHub sends nothing about you unless you turn it on, and this website does not follow you around either. Last updated November 9, 2026.

On your handheld

Anonymous diagnostics are off by default. The switch is under Tools → Community & support, and the app sends no diagnostics unless you turn them on.

When it is on, the only data is the build and version, the device model, the platform and the OS and architecture, plus a crash count when the app crashes. There is no install ID, account, file name, setting or usage history in it.

Report a bug opens a GitHub issue with a redacted diagnostics block already filled in. You read it before you submit it, and nothing is sent until you do.

Your settings, saves and media stay on the SD card. API keys and tokens in the configuration are encrypted with AES-256-GCM (set your own key with JUKAHUB_CRYPTO_KEY, because the built-in default is the same on every install), and the FTP and SFTP servers do not run until you start them. To remove JukaHub completely, delete Apps/JukaHub.

What goes online

Features that work over the internet talk to the service they need, when you use them:

Updates: at launch JukaHub asks GitHub whether a newer release exists. Set JUKAHUB_NO_AUTOUPDATE=1 to turn that off.
Videos, podcasts and streams: Tube, Shorts, Podcasts and Live TV fetch from the sites you open.
Weather: to show the forecast for your area, JukaHub looks up your approximate location from your public IP address (with ipwho.is, ipapi.co or ipinfo.io) and asks Open-Meteo for the forecast. Settings can turn the weather off.
Helpers and tools: yt-dlp, ffmpeg and the Toolbox are downloaded from GitHub releases on an allowlist kept in the app, when they are needed.

This website

jukalang.com sets no cookies, runs no analytics and loads no third-party scripts or fonts. Everything it needs is served from this site.

The pages are hosted on Netlify, which, like any web host, processes your IP address to deliver them. To show the date of the latest build, your browser asks GitHub's public API about JukaHub's latest release and keeps the answer in this tab for an hour; the download buttons take you to GitHub, which has its own privacy statement.

The live Home screen at the top of the home page runs entirely in your browser. It reads your local time and language to show the right greeting, clock and temperature unit, and sends none of it anywhere.
