Privacy

All data is stored locally on your device. Data synchronization is done using PeerJS, which uses WebRTC for a Peer-to-Peer connection between browsers.

Extensions

Privacy is something you shouldn't have to think about. Using the browser extension LibRedirect, you can automatically redirect YouTube Music links to Beatbump. For more information, please visit the LibRedirect Repo.
