Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 8, 2026

1. Introduction

This privacy policy describes how we collect, use and share information when you:

• Visit our website at https://aafeverything.app
• Download and use the AAF Everything Converter desktop application
• Purchase a license or activate the application
• Contact us by e-mail, including sales and support requests

We have designed our products to collect as little personal information as technically possible. This policy is therefore short; the sections below describe everything there is.

2. Products and Services Covered

This policy covers:

• The AAF Everything Converter desktop application (macOS and Windows), including its free demo mode
• The aafeverything.app website
• License purchases, which are processed by Lemon Squeezy, LLC as merchant of record

3. Information We Collect

Desktop application

The application performs all conversions locally on your machine — including batch runs, media collection and MXF audio transcoding. It contains no telemetry, no usage analytics, no crash reporting, no account system and no automatic update checks. The files you convert — timelines, project data and media — are processed entirely on your computer and are never transmitted to us or to anyone else. The conversion reports the application writes are plain-text files stored next to your output; they stay on your machine.

The single exception is license activation: when you enter a license key, the application contacts the Lemon Squeezy licensing API once to validate and activate the key. This request contains the license key and the standard technical data that accompanies any internet request (such as your IP address). After successful activation the application makes no further network requests. The free demo requires no activation and makes no network requests at all.

Purchases

When you buy a license, the purchase is handled by Lemon Squeezy as merchant of record. Lemon Squeezy collects and processes the information needed to complete the transaction — such as your name, e-mail address, billing address, payment details and applicable tax information — under the Lemon Squeezy privacy policy. We never receive or store your payment details. We receive your e-mail address, order details and license key records so that we can issue and manage your license and provide support.

Website

This is a static website. It sets no cookies of its own and uses no analytics or tracking scripts, social media widgets or third-party fonts. The buy buttons use Lemon Squeezy’s checkout: our homepage loads Lemon Squeezy’s checkout script, and when the checkout opens, your browser connects to Lemon Squeezy’s servers (see section 8). Our hosting provider may keep standard server logs (IP address, time of access, requested page, user agent) for security and operational purposes.

E-mail

If you contact us, we receive your e-mail address, the contents of your message, and any attachments you choose to send (for support this may include conversion reports or timeline files — send them only if you are comfortable doing so).

4. How We Use Your Information

We use the limited information described above to:

• Issue, validate and manage licenses
• Provide customer and technical support
• Process refunds and handle order issues (via Lemon Squeezy)
• Maintain the security and operation of the website
• Comply with legal obligations, such as tax and accounting rules

We do not use your information for advertising, profiling or automated decision-making, and we do not send newsletters or marketing e-mails unless you have explicitly asked for them.

5. Legal Bases for Processing (GDPR)

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), we process personal information under the following legal bases:

• Performance of a contract — issuing and activating your license, providing support (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR)
• Legitimate interests — keeping the website and licensing system secure and preventing fraud (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR)
• Legal obligations — retaining order records for tax and accounting purposes (Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR)
• Consent — where you have explicitly given it, for example by requesting product updates (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR)

6. Sharing Your Information

We share information only in the following situations:

• With Lemon Squeezy, who process purchases and license activations as described above
• With our hosting provider, to the extent that server logs are technically created by serving this website
• To comply with legal obligations or to protect and defend our rights
• With your consent

We do not sell personal information, and we never have access to your timeline or media data in the first place.

7. Data Security

The most effective security measure in our products is architectural: your creative work never leaves your computer, so it cannot be breached on our side. Beyond that, license validation uses encrypted connections (HTTPS/TLS), this website is served over HTTPS, and access to order data in the Lemon Squeezy dashboard is protected by authentication and limited to the developer.

8. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

This website sets no cookies of its own and uses no tracking technologies. The Lemon Squeezy checkout embedded on our homepage may set cookies that are necessary to process a transaction when you open it; these are governed by the Lemon Squeezy privacy policy. The desktop application stores its settings and license state locally on your computer only.

9. Data Retention

• Order and license records — retained for as long as your license is active, and thereafter as required by tax and accounting law
• Support e-mails — retained as long as needed to resolve your request and for a reasonable period afterwards, so that follow-up questions have context
• Server logs — retained by the hosting provider for a short, rolling period

10. Your Data Protection Rights

Depending on your location, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

• Access — request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
• Rectification — request correction of inaccurate information
• Erasure — request deletion of your personal data
• Restriction — request that we restrict processing
• Objection — object to processing based on legitimate interests
• Portability — request transfer of your data to another organization

To exercise any of these rights, e-mail us at support@aafeverything.app. If you are in the EEA, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

11. Third-Party Software

AAF Everything Converter reads and writes interchange files for third-party applications such as DaVinci Resolve, Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, Pro Tools, Media Composer and Nuendo. All of this happens locally on your computer. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party software; please review the privacy policies of the applications you use alongside AAF Everything.

12. International Data Transfers

Lemon Squeezy is a US-based company; when you purchase a license or activate the application, the associated data is processed in the United States under Lemon Squeezy’s safeguards for international transfers. Support e-mail is processed where our e-mail provider operates its servers.

13. Changes to This Policy

If we change this policy — for example because a future version of the application gains an online feature — we will update this page and the “Last updated” date above. Material changes to what the application sends over the network will always also be stated in the application’s release notes.

14. Contact

AAF Everything is developed and operated by a one-person studio — the same developer as AAF Bridge.
