please post for the world to see
JR!TER is software you run yourself, on your own machine. There is no company behind it, no account, no analytics and no server of ours that your library passes through. Nobody but you can see what is in it, because it is on your disk.
Nothing here is asking you to agree to anything. You are not being tracked, so there is no banner to dismiss. This page exists so the answers are written down somewhere you can find them, and because the two things you might actually want, a copy of everything and a way to get rid of it, are buttons in Settings rather than a request somebody has to answer.
Three things leave your machine, and each only because you asked for it: publishing a song to YouTube, fetching ffmpeg the first time you need it, and two typefaces the library page loads from Google. All three are set out below.
JR!TER is released under the MIT licence, copyright 2026 Lonezsi. The full text is in the
file named LICENSE beside the source, and it is the licence that governs,
not this summary of it.
In plain words: you may use it, read it, change it, run it on as many machines as you like and pass it on, for money or not, so long as the copyright notice and the licence travel with it.
The MIT licence provides the software as is, without warranty of any kind, and the authors are not liable for any claim or damage arising from it. That is not a formality here. This is a personal project that renders audio, deletes rows and uploads video, and it can lose your work. Keep your own copies of anything you would be sorry to lose. The Take a copy button in Settings is partly for that.
Your recordings, lyrics, artwork, titles and notes are yours. Neither this project nor its author receives any right in them, is sent any of them, or has any way to reach them. Publishing is something you do, not something JR!TER does with your material.
None is promised. Nobody is obliged to fix a fault, answer a question, or keep any feature working in a later version.
Consumer law in your country may give you rights that cannot be signed away, and where it does, those rights win: nothing here is meant to reduce them. If a single term turns out to be unenforceable, the rest still stands.
Whoever runs this copy of JR!TER. If that is you, on your own machine, for your own music, then you are the only person who decides anything about this data and there is nobody to write to about it. The author of the software is not involved: no copy of your library reaches them, and they have no way to obtain one.
Under the GDPR, processing carried out by a person in the course of a purely personal or household activity falls outside the regulation entirely (Article 2(2)(c)). Running your own music library on your own machine is that activity. This notice is written anyway, because the exemption stops applying the moment you give the address to other people and hold their material in it, and because being able to check what a program does beats assuming it.
All of it sits in the data directory of the machine running the server, in a SQLite database and a folder of files. JR!TER does not copy it anywhere else, back it up to anything, or send it to any service. If that machine is backed up by something else, then that something else has your library too.
There is no access log. The server does not record who asked for what, or when, and the line that would have written it was deliberately emptied. Two smaller things are true. Failed sign in attempts are counted per address in memory, which is what lets a short password survive being on the internet, and those counts are gone when the server stops. And if you run it as a background service, whatever the server prints goes to a log file on that machine, which holds startup messages and faults rather than requests.
One, and only once you sign in: the cookie that keeps you signed in. It holds a signed token and nothing else. No identifier, no profile, nothing that could follow you anywhere. There is no analytics cookie because there is no analytics.
That is why this page has no cookie banner. Consent under the ePrivacy rules is not required for storage strictly necessary to provide the service the user asked for, and a cookie whose entire job is to remember that you signed in is that. Asking you to click a box about it would be theatre.
Named exactly, with when. Nothing else, ever.
A notice describing how you could in principle request your data is worth less than a button that hands it over, so these are in Settings:
For as long as you keep it. Nothing expires, nothing is tidied away on a schedule and nothing is deleted behind your back. Deleting a song removes its rows, and its audio goes when nothing else refers to it.
This is a tool for making records, not a service for the public, and it is not directed at children.
It carries the date below, and any change to it is written into the devlog with the release it went out in, so you can see what changed and when rather than being told that it did.
