Your footage stays on your Mac.

Last updated August 29, 2026

Send Lab is a local-first Mac app. This policy explains what stays on your computer and what leaves it when you choose to use an account, billing, support, or YouTube.

Footage and activity data

Source footage, embedded camera telemetry, previews, Projects, and exports are processed on your Mac. Send Lab does not upload those files to its own server for import, editing, preview, or export.

Send Lab references your original footage. It does not modify the source files.

Accounts and billing

If you create an account or buy Send Lab Pro, the licensing service uses the information needed to sign you in, issue your entitlement, manage your devices, and keep your plan current.

This can include your email address, an internal account ID, a pseudonymous device ID, plan and entitlement status, and service timestamps.

Stripe handles payment details and billing events. Send Lab does not store your full card number.

Google authentication, Auth.js, Neon, and Vercel may support account and licensing infrastructure. Each provider handles information under its own terms and privacy policy.

YouTube API Services

Send Lab uses YouTube API Services only after you connect YouTube and choose a finished local export to upload.

The video travels directly from your Mac to YouTube. Send Lab and its licensing service do not stage or keep a server copy.

You choose the destination channel, title, description, visibility, and Made for Kids setting. Send Lab sends those choices and the selected video to YouTube.

Channel identity is used briefly to confirm the destination. The resulting YouTube video ID and link return to the active app session. Send Lab keeps no server-side upload history or analytics profile.

Your Google refresh token is stored in macOS Keychain. Short-lived access tokens stay in memory. The privacy-policy version you accept is stored locally on your Mac.

Using YouTube features also means agreeing to the YouTube Terms of Service. Google explains its own data practices in the Google Privacy Policy.

Disconnecting and deletion

“Disconnect and delete access” asks Google to revoke Send Lab and removes the refresh token and related connection data from your Mac.

If Google cannot confirm revocation, remove Send Lab in Google third-party access settings. Disconnecting does not delete videos already uploaded to YouTube.

To delete your Send Lab account and service data, email taylor@haunlab.com.

Authorized YouTube API data is deleted as soon as possible and within seven days of a valid request. If you revoke Google access elsewhere, Send Lab clears related local authorization data when it next detects the change.

Diagnostics, website, and retention

Send Lab does not sell personal information, use footage for advertising, or place advertising trackers on this website.

Diagnostic logs stay on your Mac unless you choose to send them for support.

Account, entitlement, billing, security, and support records are kept only as long as needed to run the service, meet legal obligations, resolve disputes, and prevent abuse.

Your choices and contact

You can edit and export without connecting YouTube. You can disconnect YouTube at any time.
