Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to Auto Captions Generator Pro ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring that your personal information is handled in a safe and responsible manner. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our Adobe After Effects extension.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Information We DO NOT Collect

Auto Captions Generator Pro is designed with privacy as a core principle. We DO NOT collect:

• Your video files or audio content
• Generated captions or transcription data
• Project files or After Effects compositions
• Personal identifying information
• Usage analytics or tracking data
• Your IP address or location data

2.2 Information We May Collect

We may collect minimal, non-personal information for:

• License Verification: When you purchase the Pro version, Gumroad (our payment processor) handles the transaction. We only receive verification of your purchase to activate your license.
• Technical Support: If you contact us for support, we may collect your email address and any information you voluntarily provide to help resolve your issue.

3. How We Use Your Information

The minimal information we collect is used solely for:

• Verifying your Pro license activation
• Providing customer support
• Sending important product updates (if you opt-in)
• Complying with legal obligations

4. Offline Processing

Auto Captions Generator Pro processes all audio and video content locally on your computer. This means:

• Your files never leave your computer
• No internet connection is required for caption generation
• All AI processing happens on your local machine
• Your projects remain completely private

5. Third-Party Services

5.1 Gumroad

We use Gumroad as our payment processor. When you make a purchase, Gumroad collects and processes your payment information. Please review Gumroad's Privacy Policy for details on how they handle your data.

5.2 Adobe

Auto Captions Generator Pro operates as an extension within Adobe After Effects. Adobe's own privacy policies apply to the After Effects software itself. We have no access to data collected by Adobe.

6. Data Security

Since we don't collect or store your personal data or project files, there's minimal risk of data breach. However, we implement industry-standard security measures for:

• Secure license verification
• Encrypted communication for support requests
• Protection of any email correspondence

7. Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Access: Request information about any data we may have about you

Auto Captions Generator Pro is not intended for use by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have collected information from a child under 13, please contact us immediately.

9. International Users

Auto Captions Generator Pro works offline, so your data never crosses international borders. If you contact us for support, your email may be stored on servers located in various countries, but we ensure all data is handled in compliance with applicable privacy laws including GDPR.
