ClipJar End User Licence Agreement

1. Who and what this covers

ClipJar is a tool that saves online videos, audio and subtitles to your computer, converts and edits files that are already on your computer (for example changing the format, size, speed or loudness, or cutting off black bars), and studies video thumbnails to suggest design directions. It uses the open-source programs yt-dlp and ffmpeg.

This EULA covers every part of ClipJar: the desktop app for Windows, macOS and Linux on every plan (Free, Pro and Studio), its installers, portable copies and updates, the ClipJar browser extension for Chrome, Edge and Firefox, the Site Grabber, the download engine, the Converter, the Thumbnail Analyser, the Research tools, licence keys, and any related website, documentation or support (together, "ClipJar").

You must be at least 18, or the age of majority where you live, or use ClipJar with the consent and supervision of a parent or guardian. If you accept this EULA for a company or organisation, you confirm you have authority to bind it.

2. Your licence

ClipJar is licensed, not sold. Subject to this EULA, we give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to install and use ClipJar on the number of computers your plan allows, for lawful personal or business purposes.

The Free plan is free of charge. Paid features are available only while you hold an active Pro or Studio subscription.

3. Permitted use: your responsibility for content

You may only use ClipJar to download, save, convert, analyse or otherwise process content that:

1. you own or created yourself, such as videos on your own channel;
2. the copyright owner has given you permission to download or use in that way;
3. is in the public domain, or offered under a licence that allows downloading and your intended use (for example certain Creative Commons licences, following their conditions such as attribution); or
4. the law where you live otherwise allows you to copy.

You are solely responsible for what you download, convert, keep, analyse and share with ClipJar, and for making sure your use is lawful where you live. We do not choose, host, store, review or control any content, and we cannot see what you download.

4. What you must not do

• Infringe copyright, trademark, privacy, personality or any other rights.
• Get around paywalls, logins you are not entitled to, rental or purchase systems, DRM, encryption or any other technical protection measure. ClipJar is not designed to do this and you must not try to make it.
• Redistribute, sell, re-upload or publicly share content you do not have the rights to.
• Download or collect personal data about other people in breach of data-protection or privacy laws.
• Use ClipJar to overload, disrupt or attack any website or service, or to break its security.
• Copy, modify, decompile, reverse-engineer or create derivative works of ClipJar, except where the law allows it or an open-source licence for a component permits it.
• Share, sell, rent, publish or generate licence keys, or bypass plan limits, licence checks or update systems.
• Remove or change any notices, branding or this EULA.

5. Website terms

Websites such as YouTube have their own terms of service, which may limit or forbid downloading, automated access or copying. You must read and follow the terms of every website you use with ClipJar. Your use of a website is between you and that website, and we are not responsible for it.

6. Features that act on your computer

Some features change things on your computer, but only when you turn them on:

1. When the queue finishes can open a folder, or put your computer to sleep or shut it down after a 60-second countdown that you can cancel. Save your work in other programs first. We are not responsible for unsaved work or interrupted tasks.
2. Move originals to the Recycle Bin moves the original file to the Recycle Bin (or Bin) only after the converted file has been saved. Empty the Recycle Bin only once you have checked the new files.
3. Watched channels download new uploads automatically, and unfinished downloads are kept and offered again the next time ClipJar opens. The permitted-use rules apply to everything downloaded this way.
4. Thumbnail briefs and AI prompts are suggestions. Do not copy other creators' artwork, faces, logos or trademarks without permission.

7. Plans and subscriptions

The features in each plan are listed on the ClipJar page at the time you subscribe. Features marked as coming in a future version (for example 2.5) are provided when that version is released; their timing and exact form may change. Prices are in Indian rupees; applicable taxes such as GST are added at checkout. Amounts shown in other currencies are estimates.

We may change plan features or prices. A price change applies from your next renewal after we have given you at least 30 days' notice by email or in the app. If you do not agree, you can cancel before the renewal.

8. Billing, renewal, cancellation and refunds

• Automatic renewal. Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each monthly or yearly period, using your saved payment method, until you cancel.
• Cancelling. You can cancel at any time from your ClipJar licences page in your account on our website, or by contacting us. Cancelling stops the next renewal; you keep paid features until the end of the period you have paid for. The app then returns to the Free plan, and your files and history stay on your computer.
• No refunds. All payments are final and non-refundable, including for unused parts of a monthly or yearly period, except where the law requires a refund. Please try the Free plan before you subscribe.
• Failed payments. If a renewal payment fails, we may retry it and, after notice, move your account to the Free plan.
• Payment processing. Payments are handled by third-party payment providers under their own terms. We do not store your full card details.

9. Licence keys and devices

Paid plans are unlocked with a licence key linked to your account. A key may be used on the number of computers your plan allows; you can move it to a new computer by signing out on the old one or by contacting us. ClipJar checks a key with our server when you activate it and from time to time afterwards. Only the key, an anonymous device identifier, the app version and the activation date are sent. Paid features may pause if the key cannot be checked for an extended period. We may suspend a key that is shared, resold or used in breach of this EULA.

10. Browser extension

The ClipJar browser extension lets you send links, files and page information from Chrome, Edge or Firefox to the ClipJar app on the same computer. It talks to the app locally through your browser's native messaging system and the clipjar:// link handler. It does not send your browsing to us.

The extension only reads a page when you use it, or on the pages where you have turned a feature on (such as the video panel or search overlays). Where you choose to let ClipJar use your browser's signed-in session for a website, that session stays on your computer and is used only for the request you make. Only use this for your own accounts and for content you are entitled to access, and never to share your access with others.

11. Site Grabber and fast downloads

The Site Grabber collects links to files on a website you choose, and the download engine can use several connections at once, resume, schedule and limit speed. You are responsible for using these features politely and lawfully: follow each website's terms and robots rules, use reasonable limits, and do not use them to copy a whole site or service, collect personal data, or put strain on a server. We may set default limits to protect websites.

12. Research and Thumbnail Analyser tools

The Thumbnail Analyser and Research tools work out measurements and suggestions (such as contrast, colour, tags, SEO and view-rate estimates) from public information and images you provide. They run on your computer and do not use paid third-party services. Their scores, briefs, estimates and AI prompts are guidance only. They may be incomplete or wrong, and we do not promise any views, ranking, revenue or other result. You are responsible for any designs or decisions you make with them, and for having rights to any images you use.

13. Privacy

ClipJar runs on your computer. It does not send us your downloads, files, history, settings, browsing or the pictures you analyse. It has no ads and no analytics. It connects only to the websites you ask it to use (including YouTube's image server for thumbnails); to the Python Package Index (pypi.org) to check for download-engine updates, which you can turn off in Settings; and, on paid plans, to our licence server as described in section 9.

When you subscribe or contact us, we process your name, email address, billing details and messages to provide the service, take payment, give support and meet legal obligations, in line with applicable law including India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023. We do not sell your personal data. You can ask us to access, correct or delete it using the contact details below.

14. Updates and changes to this EULA

We may release updates that add, change or remove features, fix problems or keep ClipJar working as websites change. Some updates install automatically, such as download-engine updates. We may update this EULA; the new version will show its date, and the app may ask you to accept it. If you do not accept a change, stop using ClipJar and cancel any subscription; changes do not apply to a period you have already paid for unless the law or a security need requires it.

15. Open-source parts

ClipJar includes open-source software, including yt-dlp (Unlicense), ffmpeg (LGPL/GPL), Pillow (HPND), mutagen (GPL-2.0 or later), Python and Tk, each under its own licence. Those licences apply to those components and nothing in this EULA limits your rights under them. Notices are included with the app.

16. Intellectual property

ClipJar, its code (apart from open-source parts), design, the ClipJar name, the jar icon and the Agape Labs and Exaltes Global names and logos belong to Exaltes Global Private Limited. This EULA does not give you any rights in them beyond the licence in section 2. If you send us ideas or feedback, we may use them without any obligation to you.

17. No affiliation

ClipJar is an independent product. It is not made, endorsed, sponsored or approved by YouTube, Google LLC, Microsoft, Mozilla, or any other website, browser or service it works with. All trademarks belong to their owners and are used only to describe compatibility.

18. No warranty

To the fullest extent the law allows, ClipJar is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy and non-infringement. Websites change often, so downloads and other features may stop working at any time. Keep your own backups of important files.

19. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, Exaltes Global Private Limited, its directors, employees and partners are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages, or for any loss of data, files, profits, revenue, views or content, or for any claim by a third party, arising from your use of ClipJar or from content you download, convert or analyse with it. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us for ClipJar in the 12 months before the claim, or ₹1,000 if you paid nothing. Nothing in this EULA limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

20. Indemnity

You agree to defend and compensate Exaltes Global Private Limited against any claim, loss or cost (including reasonable legal fees) that arises because you used ClipJar in breach of this EULA, a website's terms or the law, including any claim that content you downloaded, shared or used infringed someone's rights.

21. Ending this EULA

You can stop using ClipJar at any time by cancelling any subscription and uninstalling it. We may suspend or end your licence or subscription if you seriously or repeatedly break this EULA, with notice where reasonable; if we end a paid subscription without cause, we will refund the unused part. Sections 3, 4, 6, 16 and 18 to 23 continue after this EULA ends.

22. Governing law and disputes

This EULA is governed by the laws of India. Before starting any formal claim, please contact us so we can try to resolve it. The courts of India have jurisdiction over any dispute, unless the law where you live gives you the right to use your local courts. Nothing here removes your rights under consumer-protection laws that apply to you.

23. General

This EULA, together with the plan details at purchase, is the whole agreement between you and us about ClipJar. If any part is found unenforceable, the rest stays in force. If we do not enforce a term straight away, we can still enforce it later. You may not transfer this EULA or your subscription without our consent; we may transfer it to a company that takes over ClipJar, with notice to you. Headings and the "In short" summary are for convenience only.
