Privacy Policy

Last updated 20 July 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Lithium ehf. (“Lithium”, “we”, “us”) collects, uses, and protects information when you use Studio Field — including the macOS, Windows, and iOS apps and the website at studiofield.app.

Who we are

Studio Field is published by Lithium ehf., an Icelandic limited company. We are the data controller for personal data processed in connection with Studio Field.

Teenage Engineering is not affiliated with Lithium ehf. References to OP-1 field describe hardware that Studio Field can work with; Teenage Engineering does not operate this service.

Information we collect

Contact form. If you send a message through studiofield.app, we receive the name, email address, subject, and message you provide, together with basic technical metadata (such as approximate time of submission) needed to deliver and secure the email.

App usage on your devices. Studio Field is designed to keep your creative content on your Mac, iPhone, or in your own Apple iCloud account when you enable sync. We do not operate a Lithium content cloud that stores your OP-1 field tapes, backups, or library files.

Device connection. When you connect an OP-1 field over USB, file and status information stays on your computer for the features you use (browse, backup, restore, library). That processing happens locally unless you choose a sync option that uses your Apple account.

Diagnostics. If Apple or platform tools provide crash or performance reports for builds you install, those reports are handled under Apple’s terms. We may review anonymised diagnostics to improve stability.

How we use information

To respond to support and other requests you submit through the contact form.

To operate and improve Studio Field, including fixing bugs and understanding reliability of USB, backup, and sync flows.

To comply with law and protect the security of our users and systems.

We do not sell your personal information. We do not use contact-form content for advertising.

iCloud and Apple services

Optional library or backup sync uses Apple’s CloudKit / iCloud under your Apple ID. Lithium ehf. does not receive the contents of your private iCloud database for advertising. Access is limited to what the app requests to provide the sync features you enable.

Your use of iCloud is also governed by Apple’s privacy policy and terms.

Email delivery

Contact-form messages are sent using an email delivery provider so we can receive your enquiry. The provider processes the message content and delivery metadata solely to transmit the email to us.

Retention

Contact messages are kept only as long as needed to handle your request and maintain a reasonable support record, unless a longer period is required by law.

Local app data (libraries, backups, preferences) remains on your devices or in your iCloud account until you delete it.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of personal data we hold about you, and to object to certain processing. You may also lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

To exercise rights related to contact-form data, use the contact form on this website and describe your request.

Children

Studio Field is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has submitted information to us, contact us and we will delete it where appropriate.

Cookies and local storage

studiofield.app uses a small local preference (stored in your browser) to remember that you have acknowledged our cookie notice. We do not use advertising cookies or third-party ad trackers on the site.

If we add optional analytics in the future, we will update this policy and only load non-essential tools after you consent where required.

Changes

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do. Continued use of Studio Field after an update means you acknowledge the revised policy.
