Apart from sending us a letter, you may contact us at any time via [email protected].

Below you can find the most important information on typical processing of your data, organized by affected user groups (groups of data subjects). For certain data processing operations, which only concern specific groups, the information requirements are fulfilled separately. Where the term "data" is used, we refer to personal data within the meaning of the GDPR only.

1. Application(s) Users

When using our software application(s), excluding our website but including the “MoveMusic Control” VR application and “MMConnect” desktop application for macOS, Windows, and Linux, no user data is collected, stored, or accessible by MoveMusic LLC or by any included third-party software used within our application(s). Data is stored temporarily on the user's computer(s) and sent between the applications to allow wireless communication and user-control of multimedia software. Additionally, user-generated project file and application preference data are stored in long-term file storage on the user's computers and accessed by our application(s). None of this data can be accessed by MoveMusic LLC, only by our application(s) which the user chooses to run on their computer(s).

1.1 Wireless Communication Data

For our applications to function wirelessly, certain data is sent over Wi-Fi between the “MoveMusic Control” VR application and the “MMConnect” desktop application.

(i) Our applications process this data to allow the “MoveMusic Control” VR application and “MMConnect” to find each other on a local Wi-Fi network and communicate events, which a user may perform in the VR application, to control multimedia software (such as third-party music software) on an external computer that is running the “MMConnect” application.

(ii) The data processed is UDP and OSC data: UDP (User Datagram Protocol) data is protocol data that allows communication between two computers by sending data contained in a UDP packet: This includes IP address of the source and destination computer (or VR headset) and port numbers of the computer where the message should be delivered. The data in the UDP packets sent by our application(s) include OSC data: OSC (Open Sound Control) is a protocol for communication between computers and multimedia devices. The OSC data includes basic numeric and textual data about how the user has configured the application(s) to be mapped to control their multimedia software. This may include textual data the user has specifically entered into textboxes in the application(s).

(iii) The legal basis for our applications processing the above-mentioned data is our legitimate interest in providing a working product to the user that can be used wirelessly.

(iv) The data is automatically transmitted between our applications when the user has started our application(s) on their computer, has attempted to connect their computer(s) (or VR headset) to a Wi-Fi network, and has initiated connection events in the menus of the VR application.

(v) MoveMusic LLC cannot access and does not store any of this data. The data only exists on the user's computer(s) and the Wi-Fi router to which the user has connected their computer(s). The data is stored temporarily in our applications' memory on the user's computer(s) (or VR headset) until it is processed by the applications.

(vi) When the applications are closed, this data is deleted from the user's computer(s) (or VR headset).

(vii) Without sending data such as local IP address between our applications, the use of our products wirelessly would not be technically possible.

1.2 Multimedia Control Data

For the user to control multimedia software on their computer from their interactions with our applications, the “MMConnect” desktop application sends data to other multimedia applications of the user's choosing on their computer.

(i) Our “MMConnect” application processes this data to initiate control events in other multimedia applications on the user's computer.

(ii) The data processed is MIDI data: MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) data is protocol data that allows communication between multimedia applications and hardware (including music software and hardware). The data includes numeric and textual data representing musical and multimedia control events.

(iii) The legal basis for our applications processing the above-mentioned data is our legitimate interest in providing a working “MIDI controller” product to the user that can be used to control other multimedia applications via MIDI.

(iv) The data is automatically transmitted by “MMConnect”, but can be configured to send to specific multimedia applications by the user. Data transmission events are most often initiated when the user interacts in the “MoveMusic Control” VR application and messages of this interaction are received by “MMConnect”.

(v) MoveMusic LLC cannot access and does not store any of this data. The data only exists on the user's computer, but the data can be optionally received and recorded by multimedia applications of the user's choosing.

(vi) When the applications are closed, this data is deleted from the user's computer unless the user has sent this data to a multimedia application and that application has stored the data.

(vii) Without sending multimedia control data between “MMConnect” and other multimedia applications of the user's choosing on their computer, the use of our product as a controller for multimedia software would not be technically possible.

1.3 User-Generated Project Files & Application Preferences

For users to reload previously created projects in our applications and for our applications to recall user-preference settings, our applications store data in long-term file storage on the user's computers.

(i) Our applications process this data to allow user-generated content such as “MoveMusic Control” project files to be saved and reloaded into the application later. Our applications also process data to remember application settings the user has chosen so they do not need to change settings every time they close and reopen the applications.

(ii) The data processed is user-generated “MoveMusic Control” project files (.mmc file format) and user preference files. These files contain binary data representing layout and configuration of “MoveMusic Control” controls in a project configured by the user, basic textual information, date & time of file modification, and information the user has specifically entered into text boxes of the applications such as project file name.

(iii) The legal basis for our applications processing the above-mentioned data is our legitimate interest in providing a working product to the user that can save and reload user-generated project files and remember preferences that have been set by users in our application(s).

(iv) The preference data is automatically saved by our application(s) when the user configures settings in menus of our application(s) and loaded by our application(s) when they are running. The project data is saved when the user initiates save events in our “MoveMusic Control” application and loaded by “MoveMusic Control” when it is running or when the user browsers through the project file browser UI in the menus. These saving and loading of this data can only be performed by our application(s) after the user has granted file saving and loading permissions to our application(s).

(v) MoveMusic LLC cannot access and does not store any of this data. The data only exists on the user's computer(s) (or VR headset) in long-term storage and is processed by our application(s).

(vi) The files will exist on the user's computer(s) until the user manually deletes the files or requests that our application delete these files on their behalf by using commands in our applications' menus.

(vii) Without saving and loading data such as project files or user preferences to long-term storage on the user's computer(s), users would not be able to conveniently recall previous settings or user-generated content in our application(s) and this feature would not be technically possible.
