Privacy Policy

This policy explains what data Dynamic Video Player ("the App") and this website handle and why. We aim to collect as little as possible.

0. Mailing list

If you enter your email address in a "notify me" or waitlist form on this site, we store your email address, which of our websites you submitted it on, and whether you indicated interest in the free or Pro tier, along with the time you signed up. We use it for one thing: to email you when the App is available. Every email we send includes an unsubscribe link, and you can ask us to delete your entry at any time using the contact address below. We do not sell or rent this list.

1. License validation (every launch)

To check your license, the App sends to our server your license key (if you have one) and a device identifier — a one-way hash derived from your machine, not your name, and not reversible to personal information. The server records that a device checked in (a "last seen" time) so a key stays bound to one device. We do not collect your files, filenames, browsing, or the media you play.

2. Purchases and email

If you buy a license, we store your email address and license key(s) so we can deliver keys and let you recover them. If you opt in, we may email you product news; you can opt out at any time.

3. Key recovery requests

If you use "email my keys," we briefly log the email address and requesting IP to prevent abuse (rate limiting). These abuse-prevention logs are periodically deleted.

4. Bug reports and feature requests

If you send a report from within the App, the message you type — plus your app version, operating system, and Python version — is sent to our support inbox and stored in a local log on your computer. Do not include sensitive personal information in reports.

5. Shared layouts

If you create a share link, the layout (cell arrangement and the media URLs it points at) is stored on our server under a random id, with a creation time and a one-hour expiry. It is not linked to your email, licence key, or device, because it does not need to be. After an hour it expires and is deleted — we would rather not hold it longer than the hand-off requires.

6. Your media files

The App does not upload, copy, or delete your media files. Media stays on your computer except where you yourself choose to load a public URL, export a file, or create a share link.

7. Local data on your device

The App stores settings, your license key, ratings, tags, playlists, boards, and your policy-acceptance record in your user application-data folder. You can delete these at any time.

8. Third parties

• Supabase hosts our mailing list, license, and sharing backend.
• Resend sends our emails.
• Two features reach outside services, and only at the moment you explicitly trigger them. Image lookup ("Reverse Image Search") uploads the single frame you selected to the search provider you chose, to find where else that image appears. Voice commands send captured audio to the speech recogniser while the feature is switched on. Neither runs in the background, neither is on by default, and nothing is sent unless you start the action.

9. Data retention

• Mailing-list entries: kept until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete them.
• License and purchase records: kept while your license is active.
• Abuse-prevention logs and expired shares: deleted automatically.
• You may request deletion of your purchase/email records by contacting us.

10. Changes

When the version above changes, the App will ask you to review and accept the current Privacy Policy before continuing.
