2. Overview

Creator Companion for FCP is a macOS application that processes FCPXML files (project exports from Final Cut Pro) locally on the user’s device. The app assigns Motion effects to FCP roles and exports YouTube chapter markers and video descriptions.

In short: All data stays on your Mac. The app does not send any usage, tracking or analytics data to us or to third parties.

3. What data is processed?

3.1 Data processed locally

The following data is processed exclusively on your Mac. It does not leave your device and is not transmitted to us:

  • FCPXML file contents: You select an FCPXML file yourself. Roles, chapter markers and custom title content are read in order to assign effects and generate output files.
  • Motion effect files: When you upload custom Motion effect files (.moef / .effectsPreset), these are read locally to assign them to FCP roles.
  • App settings: Your configuration (YouTube descriptions, role-to-effect mappings, output folders, etc.) is stored in the app’s local storage (macOS UserDefaults).
  • Generated output files: New FCPXML files and YouTube description text files (.txt) are saved in the folder you select.

3.2 External services with data transfer

The app uses two Apple services. When you use them, technically necessary data is transferred to Apple:

  • Apple StoreKit: For in-app purchases, the app uses Apple’s StoreKit framework. Apple processes the purchase transactions as part of your Apple ID.

Apple’s privacy policy applies to data processing by Apple: https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/

3.3 What the app does NOT do

  • No tracking, no analytics tools (such as Google Analytics, Firebase, Crashlytics, etc.)
  • No advertising
  • No transmission of your FCPXML data to our servers or to third-party servers
  • No cloud storage by us
  • No access to iCloud, contacts, calendars, photos or similar personal data

4. Legal basis

  • Local data processing (FCPXML files, Motion effects, settings, output): takes place on your device only – we have no access. There is no data processing in the legal sense on our part.
  • StoreKit: data processing for the performance of the user agreement (Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR) and based on legitimate interests in a functioning product (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR). Processing is carried out by Apple, not by us.

5. Data retention

Any data created by the app remains on your device for as long as you wish. You can delete it at any time via the operating system (Finder, uninstalling the app).

6. Your rights

Since we do not process or store any personal data about you, we cannot offer you access, deletion, correction or data portability – we simply have no data about you.

For data processed by Apple (MapKit, StoreKit), please contact Apple directly. Contact and privacy rights: https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/contact/

You have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority at any time. The authority of your usual place of residence is the competent body.
