Privacy Policy
How we collect, use, and protect your personal information.
Last updated: 2026-09-08
Introduction
This policy covers the OpenChatCut website, website accounts and community submissions. OpenChatCut Open Source and OpenChatCut Pro are desktop editors: website browsing data is separate from your local editing projects. A local editing workflow does not mean that website analytics or calls to third-party AI services stay on your device.
The open-source privacy guide explains local projects and external model calls for that edition. Pro's product page is not a promise of identical data flows; the distributed Pro version must explain any license checks and connected services before use.
Information We Collect
We collect the following types of information to provide and improve our service:
- Account Information — Your name, email address, and other details you provide when creating an account.
- Usage Data — Information about how you interact with the service, including features accessed, frequency of use, and interaction patterns.
- Device Information — Device type, operating system, and browser type, used to optimize compatibility and performance.
- Cookies — Small data files stored on your device to remember preferences and improve your experience.
- Community Submissions — Resource packages, preview inputs, author names, descriptions and license choices you submit for review. Approved resources and their public attribution are published for others to view and download. Do not submit private editing footage as a public preview.
Website Analytics and Connected Services
The website integrates Vercel Web Analytics for page views and interaction events. It can also load Google Analytics or Plausible when those services are configured. Analytics may include page URLs, referrers, browser and device details; see Vercel's data collection documentation. Account sessions and preferences may use cookies or browser storage.
AI requests made from a desktop editor are handled by the model provider you select and may include prompts, project context or media needed for that request. Review that provider's policy before sending sensitive material. Pro purchasing is not open on this website; payment data processing must be disclosed when checkout becomes available.
How We Use Your Information
We use the data we collect to:
- Provide, maintain, and improve the service.
- Process transactions and send related confirmations.
- Send technical notices, security alerts, and support messages.
- Respond to your questions, feedback, and support requests.
- Detect, prevent, and address fraud and abuse.
Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal information. We may share data only in these limited cases:
- With service providers who help us operate the service, under confidentiality agreements.
- To comply with legal obligations or respond to lawful requests from public authorities.
- To protect our rights, property, or safety, or that of our users.
Data Security
We implement industry-standard security measures including encryption in transit, access controls, and regular reviews. No method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, but we work continuously to protect your information.
Your Rights
You may request access to, correction, export or deletion of your personal information by contacting us below. Website profile settings support the fields shown there; they do not delete local desktop projects. Tell us if your request also concerns a published community resource. Copies already downloaded by others may remain outside our control, and some records may need to be retained to meet legal obligations.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any material changes by updating the date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, sending a notice through the service.
