Exaecut Privacy Policy

Last Updated: February 12, 2025

At Exaecut, we take the protection of your personal data very seriously. This Privacy Policy aims to clearly and transparently inform you about the collection, use, and protection of your data when using our website and services (sale of plugins and video effects for Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects).

1. Scope

This policy applies to all personal data processed through your use of our website. It specifically covers:

  • Creation and management of your user account
  • Processing transactions and payment management through our provider
  • Sending marketing communications and newsletters
  • Management of events organized by Exaecut
  • Operation of our Hardware ID (HWID)-based license system

2. Data Controller and Processors

Exaecut is the data controller for your personal information.

Certain processing operations are delegated to third-party providers:

  • Stripe: For payment processing (Stripe directly collects payment data and provides it to you through their tools).
  • Supabase: For hosting and technical management, with security measures (weekly backups, encryption, etc.).
  • Google and Discord: For authentication when you choose to log in through these platforms (we only receive your avatar and email address).

3. Collected Personal Data

a. Account Creation and Management

Registration methods:

  • Authentication via Google or Discord (we only receive your avatar and email)
  • Account creation with email and password (passwords are securely encrypted)

b. Transaction Processing

Payment data:

During purchases, standard payment information (including billing details and country) is collected by our provider Stripe.

c. License System Operation

HWID usage:

To manage plugin licenses, we use your device's Hardware ID (HWID) to generate private/public keys and sign encrypted messages, solely to secure product activation and use.

d. Marketing Communications

Newsletter:

We collect your email during registration to send newsletters. You can unsubscribe anytime using the link in our emails.

4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Cookies:

We only use one cookie to save language preferences - no advertising or analytics tracking.

Cookie consent:

No consent banner is displayed due to the limited, non-intrusive nature of our cookie.

5. Processing Purposes and Legal Bases

Personal data is used to:

  • Manage accounts and transactions: Necessary for contract execution (service provision and payments via Stripe).
  • Send marketing communications: Based on explicit consent (unsubscribe available anytime).
  • Ensure license security: HWID processing secures product activation.
  • Manage events: Data retained for 14 days post-event or until account deletion.

Legal bases include contract execution, user consent (for marketing), and legitimate interest in service quality/security.

6. Data Retention

Event data: Retained up to 14 days post-event or until account deletion.

Account/payment data: Managed by Stripe per legal/contractual requirements.

Technical data (HWID & OS): Retained only as needed for license security.

7. Data Sharing and Transfers

Provider sharing: Data shared with Stripe, Supabase, Google, and Discord under confidentiality agreements.

Non-EU transfers: Protected with appropriate safeguards like Standard Contractual Clauses when applicable.

No third-party sharing: We don't sell or rent your data except when legally required.

8. Security Measures

We implement security measures including:

  • Weekly backups
  • Data encryption
  • Supabase-managed access controls

  • Access: Request your data copy
  • Rectification: Correct inaccurate data
  • Erasure: Request data deletion
  • Object: Oppose certain processing
