Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 24, 2026

Screen Movie is a native macOS screen recording, video editing, motion design, and cloud sharing application.

Screen Movie is local-first by default. Your local projects, recordings, screenshots, camera recordings, audio, imported media, and editing data remain on your Mac unless you explicitly choose to upload content using Screen Movie Cloud.

This Privacy Policy explains what information Screen Movie collects, how it is used, how Screen Movie Cloud works, and how you can manage or delete your data.

1. Information We Collect

Depending on the features you use, Screen Movie may process or store:

  • account information

  • authentication information

  • Google Sign-In profile information

  • purchase and subscription information

  • cloud storage metadata

  • files you explicitly upload to Screen Movie Cloud

  • share settings

  • comments and collaboration data

  • technical and diagnostic information

  • information you voluntarily provide through support or feedback

Screen Movie does not automatically upload the content of your local projects or recordings.

2. Local Projects and Recordings

Your Screen Movie projects, screen recordings, screenshots, camera recordings, microphone recordings, system audio, imported files, timeline content, and project data are processed locally on your Mac by default.

Screen Movie does not automatically upload this content to Screen Movie Cloud.

Content is uploaded only when you explicitly choose to use a cloud or sharing feature, such as the Share button.

You are responsible for managing and backing up files stored locally on your Mac.

3. Google Sign-In and Google User Data

Screen Movie allows you to sign in using Google.

When you choose to sign in with Google, Screen Movie may receive limited account information from Google that is necessary to authenticate you and create or manage your Screen Movie Cloud account.

This information may include:

  • your Google account email address

  • your name

  • your Google profile image

  • a unique Google account identifier

Screen Movie uses this information only to:

  • authenticate your account

  • create and manage your Screen Movie Cloud profile

  • associate cloud files with your account

  • associate subscription and storage access with your account

  • provide cloud sharing and collaboration features

Screen Movie does not access your Gmail messages, Google Drive files, contacts, calendar data, or other Google services.

Screen Movie does not use Google user data for advertising, profiling, data brokerage, or unrelated purposes.

Screen Movie does not sell Google user data.

4. Google API Services User Data Policy

Screen Movie’s use and transfer of information received from Google APIs complies with the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

Google user data is used only to provide user-facing Screen Movie features that are directly related to authentication and account functionality.

Screen Movie does not use Google user data for advertising.

Screen Movie does not sell Google user data.

Screen Movie does not use Google user data to train generalized or non-personalized artificial intelligence or machine learning models.

5. Account and Authentication Data

Screen Movie uses Supabase for authentication, account management, profile information, and cloud-related database services.

When you create or sign in to a Screen Movie Cloud account, Supabase may store information including:

Authentication credentials are handled by Supabase and the authentication provider you choose.

Screen Movie does not receive or store your Google password.

Supabase Auth uses authentication tokens to identify signed-in users and control access to account-related data.

6. Screen Movie Cloud

Screen Movie Cloud is an optional in-app subscription that allows you to upload exported videos, screen recordings, screenshots, images, GIFs, and other supported media for cloud storage and shareable links. It is separate from, and not included in, the one-time purchase of the Screen Movie app. Screen Movie Cloud is available for US$9 per month or US$90 per year.

Files are uploaded only when you explicitly choose to upload or share them.

When you upload a file, Screen Movie may store metadata including:

  • filename

  • file type

  • file size

  • upload date

  • account identifier

  • storage usage

  • downloads

  • comments

  • timestamped feedback

  • review and collaboration

  • storage management

  • account-related cloud features

7. Cloud Storage

Screen Movie uses Cloudflare R2 to store and deliver files uploaded to Screen Movie Cloud.

Uploaded videos, images, screenshots, and other media are stored using Cloudflare infrastructure.

Cloudflare R2 encrypts stored objects at rest and uses TLS encryption for data transferred in transit.

Cloudflare may also process technical information necessary to provide its infrastructure services, including:

  • IP addresses

  • network requests

  • connection information

  • request metadata

  • other technical information required to deliver files

Cloudflare processes this information according to its own privacy policy and applicable terms.

8. Share Links

When you share a file using Screen Movie Cloud, Screen Movie generates a unique share URL, for example: share.screen.movie/abc123

A shared file is accessible through its share URL according to the sharing options you select.

Anyone who has access to an unrestricted share URL may be able to view the shared content.

Screen Movie does not provide a public directory of your uploaded files.

Depending on available sharing options, you may be able to:

  • enable or disable comments

  • enable or disable downloads

  • protect the share page with a password

  • stop sharing the file

  • update the shared version

  • control other access settings

If password protection is enabled, viewers must provide the required password before accessing the protected content.

You are responsible for deciding what content you upload and share and for ensuring that you have the necessary rights and permissions to share that content.

9. Password-Protected Shares

Screen Movie may allow you to protect a shared file with a password.

Passwords or password verification data used for share protection are stored or processed only as necessary to control access to the shared content.

Screen Movie does not intentionally expose share passwords publicly.

Users should choose strong passwords and share them only with intended viewers.

10. Comments and Timestamped Feedback

Screen Movie may allow viewers to leave comments on shared videos and other content.

Comments and related information are stored using Supabase.

This information may include:

  • commenter display name

  • comment text

  • comment creation date

  • associated share identifier

  • associated file identifier

  • account identifier if the commenter is signed in

Timestamped comments allow feedback to be associated with a specific point in a video.

The owner of a shared file may disable comments where this option is available.

Comments are used only to provide collaboration, review, and feedback features related to shared Screen Movie content.

11. Screen Recording Permissions

Screen Movie may request macOS Screen & System Audio Recording permissions in order to record your display, application windows, selected areas, and system audio.

These permissions are used only to provide recording functionality.

Local screen recordings are not automatically uploaded to Screen Movie Cloud.

12. Camera and Microphone

If you use camera recording, microphone recording, voiceover, or related features, Screen Movie may request access to your Mac’s camera and microphone.

Camera and microphone content is processed locally unless you explicitly choose to upload or share an exported file containing that content.

13. Files and Media

22. Data Retention

Local Screen Movie projects remain on your Mac until you delete them.

Files uploaded to Screen Movie Cloud remain stored according to your account status, subscription status, applicable retention rules, and any sharing or deletion actions you take.

If you delete a cloud file, Screen Movie will remove it from active cloud storage within a reasonable period.

If your Screen Movie Cloud subscription expires or becomes inactive, access to cloud files and share links may be suspended.

If Screen Movie provides a retention period after subscription termination, uploaded files may remain stored during that retention period so that access can be restored if you resubscribe.

After the applicable retention period expires, cloud files may be permanently deleted.

Certain billing, transaction, security, or legal records may be retained where required by law.

Temporary technical backups or logs may remain for a limited period after deletion.
