ACE Creator Studio is a local AI studio that runs on your Mac. This policy
describes exactly what it does with your data. It is written to be checked
against the software's actual behaviour, not to be broad enough to excuse
anything.
ACE Creator Studio has no account system, no analytics, no telemetry, and no
crash reporting. Your prompts, generations, voice recordings, transcripts and
projects are processed entirely on your Mac and never sent to us or to any
cloud AI service. The only things the app ever transmits are: the downloads
you ask for at setup, a licence activation if you buy, and an update check.
| Data | Where it lives |
|---|---|
| Prompts, generated images, chat history | Your data folder, on this Mac only |
| Voice recordings, transcriptions, narrations | Processed on-device (whisper.cpp / local TTS); audio never leaves the Mac |
| Assembled videos and project recipes | Your data folder |
| Models | The Model Library folder you choose |
| Preferences | macOS user defaults |
| Your licence key and its signed token | App data on this Mac |
Every network request falls into one of three situations, all user-initiated
or user-visible:
1. Installing engines and models. At your request, first-run setup and the
model picker download inference engines and models from their publishers'
own servers. Those requests go to the publishers; they see a normal
download request and nothing about your use of the app.
2. Licence activation and refresh (only if you buy). The app contacts
platform.aceglobalpro.com and sends: your licence key and a device
identifier. It receives back a signed token stored locally. No content,
no prompts, no usage data ride along.
3. Update check. Sparkle fetches the appcast from aceglobalpro.com to
learn whether a newer version exists — a standard HTTPS request that
carries no personal data.
Generation itself — images, chat, speech, video — makes **no network
requests**. Unplug the network after setup and the studio keeps working.
If you buy a licence: the email you bought with, the licence key we issued,
and its device activations — the minimum required to honour your licence and
support you. Payments are handled by the payment provider; card details never
reach us. Delete/expunge requests: support@aceglobalpro.com.
We will update this policy if the software's behaviour changes, and the app's
release notes will say so. The current version always ships with the app and
is published on aceglobalpro.com.
