In short: CineMeter collects no personal data. Your mixes, videos and reports stay on your own Mac. The app has no account, no analytics, no advertising and no tracking, and it does not send anything over the internet.
Who we are
CineMeter (“the app”) is developed by Raunoa OÜ, a company registered in Estonia (registry code 12304840), Tartu mnt 52-9, Iisaku alevik, Alutaguse vald, 41101 Ida-Viru maakond, Estonia. Email: rauno@raunoa.com.
What the app does with your data
The app measures audio and video files that you choose yourself. Everything happens locally on your Mac:
- Audio and video files are read from where they are on your Mac or attached drive. They are never uploaded, copied to a server or shared.
- Temporary audio: to measure a video or a non-WAV file, the app decodes its sound into a temporary file inside the app’s own sandbox. These files are deleted when the app no longer needs them.
- Recent files: macOS keeps the list shown in File ▸ Open Recent, as for any document app, so you can reopen a mix later.
- Reports you export are saved where you choose.
None of this information is sent to us or to anyone else. We cannot see, access or recover your files.
What we do not do
- No user accounts or sign-in.
- No analytics, telemetry or usage tracking inside the app.
- No advertising and no third-party SDKs.
- No network connections: the app works fully offline.
- No access to your microphone, camera, contacts, location or photo library.
Apple and the App Store
The app is sold through Apple’s App Store. Apple processes your purchase, payment and download under Apple’s Privacy Policy; we do not receive your name, email or payment details.
Apple gives developers aggregated, anonymous statistics such as the number of downloads and sales per country. If you have chosen to share analytics with app developers in your device’s settings, Apple may also share anonymous crash reports with us, which we use only to fix bugs. You can turn this off at any time in System Settings → Privacy & Security → Analytics & Improvements.
Contacting us
If you email us for support, we use your email address and message only to answer you. If you send us a report or a file to look at, we use it only to investigate your question and delete it afterwards. We keep the correspondence as long as needed to help you and to meet our legal obligations, and we do not share it with third parties.
Your rights
Under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) you have the right to ask what personal data we hold about you, and to have it corrected or deleted. Because the app collects no personal data, in practice this only concerns emails you have sent us. Write to rauno@raunoa.com. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Estonian Data Protection Inspectorate (Andmekaitse Inspektsioon) or with the data protection authority in your own country.
Children
The app does not collect personal data from anyone, including children.
Changes to this policy
If the way the app handles data ever changes, for example if a future version adds an online feature, we will update this page and the date above before that version is released.
