Debrid services do collect data, the recent RealDebrid drama seems relevant since this app is basically for use with those services

It actually seems more private to self host Jellyfin to stream/playback already downloaded media files but that's just my own interpretation.
Sure, there is that risk as well...but since it runs in a docker container, it's easier to pipe all these requests through a VPN tunnel. And yes, one could pipe all their network devices (or just the android box) through VPN.
But then again, the installed app, might also collect data from within the network, etc.
