Overview
Everything Jumper does happens on your computer. All media analysis, indexing, and search operations run locally on your machine. Your footage never leaves your computer, and Jumper doesn’t need cloud storage or external processing to work.
Your media stays yours. Jumper never takes custody of your footage.
Where Your Data Lives
- All your media files stay where you put them (local drives, NAS, or your own servers).
- All the analysis work (speech transcription, face detection, visual indexing) happens on your computer or your local network.
- Jumper only creates metadata files (indexes, thumbnails, transcriptions) that are stored locally with your media.
- Your actual footage never gets sent anywhere.
Internet Connection
Jumper works completely offline. Your media, metadata, and analysis results never get uploaded to any servers.
The only times Jumper needs internet are:
- Activating your license
- Updating the software
- Sending crash reports (you can disable this if you want)
None of these involve your actual footage or project files.
You’re in Control
You own and control everything:
- Your media files
- The analysis files Jumper creates
- All cache data
Jumper can’t access, view, or retrieve content you don’t explicitly share with it. Access to your files is controlled by your computer’s permissions, just like any other application.
Team Environments
When using Jumper in a shared setup:
- All indexes and cache files stay on your infrastructure (your servers, your network).
- Jumper doesn’t add any new access permissions beyond what your storage and network already allow.
- Your existing IT and security policies control who can access what.
Deleting Your Data
Jumper doesn’t keep copies of your data. When you delete media files or cache files from your computer, they’re gone from Jumper too.
If you uninstall Jumper, it doesn’t leave anything behind except the cache files you created, which you can delete yourself if you want.Last modified on January 28, 2026
