Privacy Policy
Effective Date: July 17, 2026 • Version 2.4 • Applicable worldwide across all RenderHub digital services.
1. Introduction & Customer Accounts
Welcome to RENDERHUB (“RenderHub,” “we,” “our,” or “us”). We specialize in precision color grading DCTLs, Look-Up Tables (LUTs), PowerGrades, and DaVinci Resolve workflow integrations for professional colorists and post-production studios.
To access our digital catalog, manage downloads, and validate product licenses, customers create an authenticated account via our Studio Portal (`/register` and `/account`). This Privacy Policy outlines exactly what personal and technical data we collect, how it is processed, and your rights regarding your information.
2. Information We Collect
We adhere to strict data minimization practices. We collect only the information necessary to process digital transactions, deliver secure files, enforce single-seat licensing, and provide technical support.
- Full Name: Collected during account registration and checkout for invoice attribution.
- Email Address: Used as your primary account identifier, login credential, digital download delivery target, and license link.
- Country of Residence: Collected to ensure tax compliance, regional currency formatting, and international gateway verification.
- Billing Address: ❌ We explicitly do not collect or store full physical billing addresses or credit card numbers on RenderHub servers. All financial credentials are processed directly via Razorpay.
- IP Address & Browser Diagnostics: Logged during account sign-in and checkout to prevent fraudulent transactions and DDoS attacks.
- Device Fingerprinting & Hardware IDs: During product activation of our licensed DCTLs and OFX plugins (`/api/licenses/validate`), our system records an anonymized hardware identifier to enforce single-seat personal workstation limitations as mandated by our EULA.
4. Email Communications & Opt-In Policy
We respect your inbox and clearly separate mandatory transactional dispatches from promotional updates:
- Transactional Emails (Automatic): When you create an account, purchase a product, or request a password reset, you will automatically receive transaction-critical emails including payment receipts, time-limited download links, and license keys.
- Product Updates, Releases & Newsletters (Opt-In Only ✅): We send technical announcements, DCTL versioning upgrades, new product releases, studio discounts, and color grading newsletters only to customers who explicitly opt in after purchase or during account creation. You can unsubscribe from promotional mailings at any time with a single click via the unsubscribe link in the footer of any email.
5. Age Requirement & Children's Privacy (18+)
RenderHub provides professional, commercially licensed post-production software and digital assets. Our platform is intended strictly for adults and professional colorists. You must be **at least 18 years of age** to create an account, enter into our End User License Agreement, or purchase products on our storefront.
We do not knowingly collect or solicit personal information from individuals under the age of 18. If we become aware that an account has been registered by a minor under 18 without verified parental consent, we will promptly terminate the account and purge all associated personal identification records from our database.
6. Data Retention Policy
Specifically, order records and associated license activation logs are preserved inside encrypted cloud clusters (MongoDB Atlas) so you can continually log into your Studio Portal (`/account`) to retrieve your past DCTL downloads and manage license activations over time. If you wish to permanently close your account and request deletion of your profile data (subject to mandatory legal financial auditing hold periods), please contact our privacy desk.
7. International Sales & Cross-Border Transfers
RenderHub ships digital products globally across every country supported by our primary payment gateway, Razorpay. By utilizing our platform from outside our primary hosting jurisdiction, you acknowledge and consent that your account name, email, and technical activation records will be transmitted across secure encrypted channels (SSL/TLS) to cloud servers located in enterprise data centers (such as Render, Vercel, and MongoDB Atlas cloud nodes).
8. Privacy Contact & Data Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction (such as GDPR or CCPA frameworks), you have the right to access, correct, export, or request the deletion of your personal account data. For all legal, privacy, and data inquiries, please reach out to our dedicated support and legal team:
