Privacy and terms

The short version: no accounts, no ads, no analytics and no cookies of this site’s own. Nothing goes to YouTube or Google until you press ▶ load the videos (or play a mix someone sent you), and your settings stay in your own browser.

Who runs this site

I do: Jan, a private person, running this as a free, non-commercial hobby project. I am responsible (the “controller”) for the personal data this site handles. You can write to me at:

This site uses YouTube API Services

The videos, the search results and the “more from this channel” suggestions come from YouTube, through the YouTube API Services (the YouTube IFrame Player API and the YouTube Data API). By using this site you agree to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service. What YouTube and Google do with your data is explained in the Google Privacy Policy.

What happens when you use it

Opening a page

Your browser downloads the page, its scripts, the font, the pictures and the sound effects from this site’s own server; nothing comes from other companies. The server keeps no log of visits to this site. Only when the server itself fails to answer (an error, for example during an update) does it note the time, the address you asked for, your IP address with the last part removed (for example 203.0.113.x) and technical details of the connection (port, protocol, encryption), but nothing about your browser or where you came from. Those notes are deleted after 30 days at the latest. Why: to keep the server running (legitimate interest, GDPR article 6(1)(f)).

Pressing “▶ load the videos” (or playing a mix)

That click, or ▶ PLAY THE MIX / play it back in the REC window, is your consent (GDPR article 6(1)(a), and article 11.7a of the Dutch Telecommunicatiewet) to load YouTube’s player from www.youtube.com. From then on your browser talks to YouTube directly. YouTube receives your IP address, details about your browser, the address of this page (with the two videos on the decks) and, if your browser passes it on, the page that linked you here, plus the videos you load and what you do with them (play, pause, speed, volume). Some of this is shared as soon as a player loads a video, to show its picture and title and to check that it can play here; more is shared while videos play, and since tracks usually start by themselves on this site, that starts when a track loads. YouTube may show ads in the videos; this site has none of its own.

YouTube also stores cookies and similar data on your device: to make the player work and remember your choices, to fight spam, fraud and abuse, to count views and measure use and, depending on your Google settings, for ads and personalised recommendations. According to Google’s list, YouTube’s cookies last from the end of your browsing session up to 13 months. Google explains each one at policies.google.com/technologies/cookies, and how it uses information from sites like this one at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

Your consent is remembered in this browser, with the version of this statement you agreed to, until you take it back. When this statement changes in a way that matters, you’re asked again.

Searching and suggestions

Searches only run after that go-ahead. Your search words then go straight from your browser to Google’s YouTube Data API, together with this site’s API key (or your own, if you added one), your IP address and details about your browser; the thumbnails come from YouTube’s image servers. For “more from this channel”, your browser asks the same API for other uploads by the channel of each video on the decks. This site’s server never sees your searches. Why: to do the search you asked for (legitimate interest, GDPR article 6(1)(f)).

What your browser keeps

This site stores a few things in your browser’s local storage (not in cookies):

• Your settings (theme, crossfader curve, sound-effect set and volume, which drawers are open), once you change them: kept until you clear them.
• Your YouTube go-ahead, with the version of this statement and the date: kept until you take it back.
• Recent search results and channel suggestions, including the words you searched for: used for 24 hours, so a repeated search doesn’t use up the site’s daily searches. After that they are no longer used, and they are deleted the next time you open the crossfader (or right away with the button below).
• Your own API key, if you add one under out of searches?: kept until you remove it. It only ever goes to Google, with your searches and channel suggestions.

None of this is sent to this site’s server. It is stored because you use these features, which article 11.7a of the Telecommunicatiewet allows without separate consent.

Recording a mix

REC puts your whole mix in the link itself, after the #. Browsers don’t send that part to this site’s server, and this site keeps it nowhere: a mix only travels where you share the link. When the players load, the site hides the mix from the page address, so YouTube only sees the two videos.

What doesn’t happen

• No accounts and no Google sign-in. This site never asks for access to your Google account, so there is nothing to revoke on Google’s security settings page.
• No analytics, no tracking and no advertising of its own, for any video, including videos made for kids.
• No selling or sharing of data, no profiling and no automated decisions.

Who else is involved

• Hetzner Online GmbH hosts the server for me, in Falkenstein, Germany.
• YouTube and Google receive what is described above, directly from your browser. YouTube LLC provides the API services; for people in the EU, Google Ireland Limited is responsible for YouTube. Google also processes data outside the EU, including in the United States; the Google Privacy Policy explains how and on what basis.

Taking it back and deleting your data

This button takes back your YouTube go-ahead and removes everything this site stored in this browser: settings, recent searches and your API key. A crossfader that is open in another tab reloads, so YouTube stops there too.

forget everything

YouTube’s own cookies are YouTube’s to delete: remove the site data for youtube.com in your browser’s settings, or manage your activity in your Google account. I can’t delete data that Google holds.

Your rights

You can ask me which personal data I have about you, and have it corrected, deleted or restricted; you can object to how it is used, and ask for a copy (GDPR articles 15 to 21). Write to the address above. I normally hold nothing that can be linked to you (the error notes contain only a shortened IP address), so I may need a little more information from you before I can find anything. Letters are kept only as long as it takes to answer them.

You can also complain to the Dutch data protection authority, the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens, or to the authority in the EU country where you live or work.

Security

Everything travels encrypted (HTTPS): between you and this site, and between you and YouTube.

Terms of use

• By using this site you agree to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service.
• The site is free and comes as it is, without guarantees. It may change or go offline at any time.

Version 1, last changed on 30 September 2026. If this statement changes, so does this date.
