This Privacy Policy describes how PlotLuma collects, uses, shares, and protects information about you when you use the PlotLuma web application at https://plotluma.com and the PlotLuma Android companion app on Google Play (package com.plotluma.shotoverlay). The Android app is a thin client that loads the same PlotLuma service; it does not collect additional personal data beyond what the web app already uses. PlotLuma is a free film pre-production tool for screenwriters, directors, and film crews.
When you choose to sign in to PlotLuma using your Google account, Google shares the following information with PlotLuma via OAuth 2.0:
PlotLuma requests the email, profile, and openid OAuth scopes for sign-in. If you optionally connect Google Drive from Settings, PlotLuma also requests the drive.file scope — which only allows creating and updating files that PlotLuma itself creates in your Drive (a PlotLuma folder). PlotLuma does not access your existing Drive files, Gmail, Google Calendar, or Contacts.
PlotLuma stores the pre-production content you create, including:
Reports are generated from the project content above when you open them. PlotLuma does not keep a separate copy of a report.
When Google Drive is connected, the shoot checklist stores checkmarks, notes, and the files you add (such as call sheets, permits, releases, and insurance) in a Before the shoot folder inside that project’s folder in your Google Drive. Those checklist files are not copied into PlotLuma’s database.
All content you create in PlotLuma is private to your account and is not visible to other users.
Standard server logs (IP address, browser type, request timestamps) are collected by PlotLuma's hosting providers, Vercel and Supabase, as part of normal infrastructure operation. PlotLuma does not use this data to track or identify individual users.
The Google Play companion app displays PlotLuma in a secure WebView and may open the system browser for Google Sign-In. It uses the same authentication and project data as the website. The app requests only the Internet permission. It does not access your contacts, photos, microphone, camera, or precise location. Local device storage may hold session tokens and UI preferences (for example, last selected project in overlay mode) so you stay signed in between launches.
PlotLuma uses the information collected for the following purposes only:
PlotLuma explicitly does not use your information, including any data received via Google sign-in, for the following purposes:
PlotLuma's use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
PlotLuma only uses Google account data (email, name, account ID) to:
If you connect Google Drive, PlotLuma additionally uses the drive.file scope solely to write and update PlotLuma-created files in your Drive (project archives, storyboard shot folders, and each project’s Before the shoot checklist folder, under your PlotLuma folder). You can disconnect Drive anytime from Settings or revoke access at myaccount.google.com/permissions.
This data is not transferred to other parties, used for advertising, or used for any purpose other than providing the PlotLuma service to you.
PlotLuma does not sell your data. PlotLuma shares data only with the following infrastructure providers that are necessary to operate the service:
PlotLuma may disclose information if required by applicable law, court order, or to protect the safety of users or the public.
PlotLuma protects your data using the following measures:
Despite these measures, no security system is completely infallible. We recommend keeping local backups of important production documents.
PlotLuma uses a single session cookie set by Supabase Auth to keep you signed in. This cookie contains a signed, encrypted session token. It does not contain your personal data and is not used for tracking.
PlotLuma does not use advertising cookies, analytics cookies, or any third-party tracking cookies.
PlotLuma retains your account information and project data for as long as your account remains active.
You may request deletion of some or all data without deleting your account at https://plotluma.com/data-deletion. You may also remove projects yourself in the app. Files already saved in your Google Drive, including project archives and the Before the shoot folder, stay in your Drive until you delete them there.
To delete your entire account and associated data, use https://plotluma.com/account-deletion (or Feedback & help → Account / data request). PlotLuma will permanently delete verified requests within 30 days.
Server logs held by Vercel and Supabase are governed by their respective data retention policies.
Depending on where you are located, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:
Users in the European Economic Area (EEA) and United Kingdom have rights under the GDPR. Users in California have rights under the CCPA. To exercise any of these rights, use Feedback & help in PlotLuma.
PlotLuma is not directed at children under the age of 13. PlotLuma does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided personal information to PlotLuma, please contact us via Feedback & help and we will delete that information promptly.
PlotLuma may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal, operational, or regulatory reasons. When we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. For material changes, we will make reasonable efforts to notify users through the PlotLuma app interface or by email.
We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically. Continued use of PlotLuma after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
