Your Lighting Check

Privacy Policy

Last updated: 1 October 2026 · Versión en castellano

The summary, in three sentences.

Your lists and projects are yours and live on your device. We only store in the cloud what is essential to sync them between your iPhone and your Mac, and only if you sign in.

We don’t sell your data, we don’t share it with advertisers, we don’t use tracking cookies, and there is no advertising or behavioural analytics in the app.

1. Who processes your data

The data controller is Saúl Huerta Montalvo, developer of the Your Lighting Check app.

For any question about your data, write to: huertamontalvosaul@gmail.com

2. What data we process and why

The language and country set on your device To suggest the starting language and region. They are read on the device itself and are not sent to any server Legitimate interest in the app starting in your language

We do not process special categories of data. The app does not ask for or need health data, political opinions, trade union membership, ethnic origin or any other sensitive data. If you choose to type such information into a notes field, it will be stored like any other text of yours, but the app does not ask for it or use it for anything.

3. What we DON’T do

4. Device permissions

The app only asks for access to features of your device when you use them, and you can withdraw that access at any time in iOS Settings. If you don’t grant it, the rest of the app keeps working.

5. Where it is stored

Your data is stored on your own device. If you sign in, it is also copied to Google Firebase (Google Ireland Limited), acting as data processor, so it can sync between your devices.

The servers are in the European Union. If there were ever transfers outside the European Economic Area, they would be made under the Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission.

Subscription payments are handled by Apple through your Apple ID. We never see or store your card details.

To check whether your subscription is active we use RevenueCat (RevenueCat, Inc., United States), acting as data processor. RevenueCat receives your subscription status from Apple and links it to an internal identifier for your account; it does not receive your projects or your payment details. As it is a company outside the European Economic Area, this transfer is made with the safeguards required by the General Data Protection Regulation.

6. How long we keep it

7. Your rights

You can exercise at any time, free of charge and without giving a reason, your rights of access, rectification, erasure, objection, restriction and portability, and withdraw your consent.

Write to huertamontalvosaul@gmail.com. We will reply within 30 days.

You can exercise many of these rights yourself without asking us: in the app, in Settings, you can export your projects and delete your account.

If you believe we haven’t handled your request properly, you can complain to the Spanish Data Protection Agency (aepd.es) or to the data protection authority of the country where you live (in the United Kingdom, the ICO).

8. Children

The app is aimed at professionals in the film and television industry and is not intended for children under 14. We do not knowingly collect data from children under that age.

9. Security

Communication with our servers is encrypted (HTTPS/TLS). Access is protected by your Google or Apple account, so we never handle or know your password.

10. Changes to this policy

If we change anything significant, we will let you know in the app before it takes effect. The date of the last update always appears at the top of this document.

This policy is a translation of the Spanish version. Both versions have the same content.
