Privacy Policy
Effective March 25, 2026 — Sp3kTr4L AG
1. Introduction
Sp3kTr4L AG ("we", "us", "our") operates CuePilot, a desktop application for event timing and presentation management. This Privacy Policy explains what data is collected, how it is used, and how it is stored when you use CuePilot or visit cue-pilot.com.
We are committed to minimizing data collection. CuePilot is designed to work primarily offline, and we do not collect personal data beyond what is strictly necessary for license management.
2. Data We Collect
CuePilot collects the following data solely for license validation purposes:
- License key — the key you receive upon purchase, used to activate the software
- Machine ID (hashed) — a one-way hash of your hardware identifier, used to enforce per-device activation limits
- Activation timestamps — the date and time of license activations and deactivations
We do not collect your name, email address, IP address, usage telemetry, or any other personal information through the CuePilot application itself.
3. Payment Processing & LemonSqueezy
All payments are processed by Lemon Squeezy LLC ("LemonSqueezy"), which acts as the Merchant of Record for all CuePilot purchases. LemonSqueezy collects and processes your payment information (name, email, billing address, payment method) in accordance with their own privacy policy.
We do not have access to your full payment details. We only receive your license key and order reference from LemonSqueezy to fulfill your purchase.
For LemonSqueezy's privacy practices, please refer to: lemonsqueezy.com/privacy
4. Local Data Storage
CuePilot stores license information locally on your device in a file called license.dat. This file contains your license key, activation status, and cached validation data. This data never leaves your machine except during license validation calls.
All your timer configurations, presets, playlists, and design settings are stored locally on your device and are never transmitted to any server.
5. License Validation
CuePilot periodically contacts license.cue-pilot.com to validate your license. This endpoint is a Cloudflare Worker proxy that forwards validation requests to LemonSqueezy's API. The following data is transmitted during validation:
- Your license key
- Your hashed machine ID
These requests are encrypted via HTTPS. No personal data is transmitted.
6. Cookies & Analytics
The CuePilot website (cue-pilot.com) does not use cookies or analytics trackers.
When you access the LemonSqueezy checkout overlay to purchase CuePilot, LemonSqueezy may set cookies necessary for payment processing. These cookies are governed by LemonSqueezy's privacy policy, not ours.
7. Third-Party Services
- Cloudflare Pages — hosts the cue-pilot.com website. Cloudflare may process connection metadata (IP address, headers) as part of their CDN service.
- Cloudflare Workers — proxies license validation requests between the CuePilot app and LemonSqueezy's API.
- LemonSqueezy — processes payments and manages subscriptions as Merchant of Record.
8. Data Retention
License activation data (license key, hashed machine ID, timestamps) is retained for as long as your license is active. Upon license expiration or cancellation, activation records may be retained for a reasonable period for administrative purposes.
Local data stored in license.dat can be deleted at any time by removing the file from your device.
9. Your Rights
Since we collect minimal data and do not store personal information, most data subject rights (access, rectification, erasure) apply to data held by LemonSqueezy as Merchant of Record. Please contact LemonSqueezy directly for payment-related data requests.
For license-related data inquiries, you may contact us at support@cue-pilot.com.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. Continued use of CuePilot after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
