Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Clipdrop Live ("we", "our", "us") — operated by Sjuul Studios, based in the Netherlands — handles information when you use the Clipdrop Live desktop application and the website at clipdroplive.com (together, "the Service").
The short version: your DJ sets stay on your device. We don't upload your audio or video to our servers. The only data we store on our side is what you give us directly — like an email address if you sign up for early access.
1. What we process locally on your device
The Clipdrop Live desktop app analyses audio and video files you choose to import. This processing happens entirely on your computer. We do not have access to those files, and they are not transmitted to us.
2. What we collect on our servers
Email address (if you provide one)
If you submit your email through the early-access form on our website, we store it solely to contact you about Clipdrop Live availability. We don't sell, rent, or share it with third parties for marketing purposes.
Basic website analytics
We may use privacy-respecting analytics on the website to understand aggregate visitor patterns (e.g. country, page, referrer). We do not use cookies that identify you personally.
3. Social platform connections (OAuth)
If you connect a TikTok, Instagram, or Facebook account inside Clipdrop Live to publish clips directly, the following applies:
- OAuth access tokens and refresh tokens are stored locally on your device, in your operating system's secure credential store (macOS Keychain, Windows Credential Manager, or Linux Secret Service).
- Tokens are never transmitted to our servers.
- When you click "Share", the video file and the metadata you typed (caption, etc.) are sent directly from your device to the social platform's API. We are not in the middle of that transfer.
- You can disconnect any social account at any time from the app's Settings → Connected Accounts. This removes the stored token from your device.
4. What we do not do
- We do not collect or store your DJ sets, audio, or video.
- We do not sell personal data.
- We do not train machine learning models on your content.
- We do not share your information with advertisers.
5. Legal basis (GDPR)
For users in the European Economic Area, our legal bases for processing are:
- Consent — when you sign up for early access or connect a social account.
- Legitimate interest — for basic, non-identifying website analytics.
- Contract — when processing is necessary to provide a service you've requested.
6. Your rights
Under GDPR and similar laws, you have the right to access, correct, delete, or export the personal data we hold about you, and to withdraw consent at any time. To exercise any of these rights, email business@sjuulstudios.com. We respond within 30 days.
7. Data retention
Email addresses submitted for early access are kept until you ask us to delete them, or until Clipdrop Live ceases operation, whichever comes first.
8. Children
Clipdrop Live is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
9. International transfers
If you are outside the Netherlands, your information may be processed on servers located in the European Union. If we ever need to transfer data outside the EU, we will use safeguards consistent with GDPR (e.g. Standard Contractual Clauses).
10. Security
We use industry-standard measures to protect the limited data we hold. OAuth tokens are stored in your operating system's secure credential store. Email addresses are stored in encrypted form on our infrastructure. No system is perfect — if we ever experience a breach affecting your data, we will notify you and the relevant supervisory authority within 72 hours, as required by law.
11. Changes to this policy
If we materially change this policy, we will update the "Last updated" date above and, where appropriate, notify users by email.
12. Contact
Questions, requests, or complaints? Email business@sjuulstudios.com.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority. In the Netherlands, this is the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens.
