ccProfiler
ccProfiler is a macOS color calibration app used with X-Rite hardware to profile displays and support accurate on-screen color.
What is ccProfiler?
ccProfiler is a macOS color calibration and profiling application for users who need more accurate color on monitors and projectors. It is associated with X-Rite display-calibration workflows and is commonly used by photographers, video editors, designers, and other color-critical users working with compatible measurement devices. The software helps create display profiles, adjust calibration targets, and improve consistency between what you see on screen and your intended output. It includes guided workflows for straightforward setup as well as more advanced options for users who want finer control over profiling settings. On a Mac, users typically encounter ccProfiler when setting up or maintaining an older X-Rite or related Calibrite color-management device.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
ccProfiler is legitimate color-management software used with compatible calibration hardware. It may need access to display settings and connected measurement devices so it can create and apply color profiles, which is normal for this type of app. Removing it will not harm macOS, but you may lose the ability to recalibrate or manage profiles with the related hardware until you reinstall it or use replacement software.
Recommendation: Keep ccProfiler if you still use an X-Rite or compatible display-calibration device, or if you need to adjust monitor or projector color accuracy. If you no longer use that hardware or have moved to a newer calibration app, you can remove it without affecting the rest of your Mac beyond losing this profiling workflow.
