Privacy Policy — Deck for After Effects
Modera Labs · support: moderalabs.support@gmail.com · Last updated: 2 November 2026
Short version: Deck for After Effects collects no personal data, sends nothing over the internet and needs no account.
What the plugin does on your Mac
- It talks to Adobe After Effects on your computer (through AppleScript and After Effects scripting) to run commands and read simple values such as the active tool, selected layer values and switch states. These values are used only to draw the keys.
- It sends keyboard shortcuts to After Effects only while After Effects is the front app.
What is stored, and where
- A small temporary result file in
/tmp/com.moderalabs.deckforaftereffects, removed after each read. - A short log in
~/Library/Application Support/com.moderalabs.deckforaftereffects(errors and plugin state, no personal data). You can delete it at any time. - Your settings (for example language and custom key labels) inside Stream Deck's own settings.
All of this stays on your computer.
What is not done
- No network connections. No analytics, no tracking, no advertising.
- No data is shared with Modera Labs or any third party by the plugin.
- The plugin does not read your project files or footage; it only reads the values listed above and only to show them on keys.
Third parties
Stream Deck software and Elgato Marketplace are operated by Corsair/Elgato under their own privacy policy. Purchases are handled by Elgato Marketplace; Modera Labs does not receive your payment details.
