I want to burn in a lower caption "For screening purposes only" on video exports. Is there a plugin to achive this? Or do I need to create a seperate sequence with a text track? The same goes for closed captions. Is there a plugin to embed close captions on export?

Besides what Stan said, if you burn "For screening purposes only" frequently, you can save that text as an image (png for example), after that, enable "Image Overlay" in the "Effects" tab of the export settings and choose your saved image. The good thing about this is that you can save your export settings as a custom preset, that you can use directly next time. Regarding captions, you can burn those directly in PPro:

For the lower third "caption," just use the type tool (T), and drag its duration to the whole sequence. You can style it as you wish.

 

For Closed and other captions/subtitles, see this:
