Privacy

cue.wicker.life counts visits with PostHog, hosted in the EU (Frankfurt), through this site's own address. It measures which pages are viewed, which links and buttons are clicked (for example which download), when a command or prompt is copied, and the referring site.

It sets no cookies and stores nothing in your browser (no local or session storage). To count visitors, PostHog computes an anonymous hash on its servers from your IP address, browser and this site, with a random value that changes every day and is then deleted. So the same visitor can't be recognised from one day to the next, and your IP address is not stored with the events.

There are no personal profiles, no session recordings, no advertising and no tracking across other websites. If your browser sends Do Not Track, nothing is sent at all.

The app sends nothing about how you use it unless you choose Share anonymous usage (Cue asks once, and the setting is in Settings → General). If you do, it sends these events to the same EU PostHog project, with a random install ID created on your computer (not linked to you, your account or your device):

• app_openedCue's version, the operating system (macOS, Windows or Linux), the processor type (arm64 or x64) and the interface language (for example “en”). Once per launch.
• project_createdThat a project was created. Nothing about it.
• export_finishedThe kind of export (video, audio, GIF, captions, …), roughly how long the exported part is (for example “2-10 min”), how many seconds the export took and how that compares with the video’s length, and whether it succeeded.
• agent_chat_turnWhich agent answered in Cue's agent panel (Claude Code, Codex or Gemini CLI).
• mcp_request_batchWhich of Cue's MCP tools agents called and how many times, added up and sent at most every few minutes.
• generation_usedWhat was generated (voice, sound, music, clip, image or transcription) and by which service (for example OpenAI, ElevenLabs, fal, or Cue itself).
• motion_timeline_usedThat the motion graphics timeline was used. Once per launch.
• update_installedThe version Cue was updated from and to.

Cue asks PostHog not to look up a location from your IP address and not to build a profile of you. Development builds of Cue never send anything. Checking for updates talks to GitHub, not to PostHog, and happens whether or not you share usage (you can turn it off in Settings → General → Updates).

Neither the site nor the app ever sends file or project names, folder paths, your media, transcripts, scripts or any other project content, what you type to an agent (prompts), generated text or pictures, or API keys. The app checks every event against a fixed list of allowed properties before sending it; anything else is dropped. You can read that list in electron/core/usage.ts.

Services you connect yourself (OpenAI, ElevenLabs, fal, Higgsfield) receive what you ask them to generate, directly from your computer, under their own privacy policies. Cue doesn't see or keep a copy.

In the app: Settings → General → Share anonymous usage. Turning it off stops sending straight away, including anything not yet sent. To also forget the install ID, delete the file usage.json in Cue's data folder.

On this website: turn on Do Not Track in your browser, or use a content blocker. The site works the same either way.
