Forge EQ collects no data. None.
Forge EQ processes your Mac's audio locally, in real time, to apply the equalizer. Audio is never stored unless you explicitly start a recording, and recordings are saved only to locations you choose on your own Mac. Audio is never transmitted anywhere.
The microphone is used only if you run room calibration, to measure your speakers from your listening position. The measurement happens entirely on your Mac and is discarded after the correction curve is computed.
