Terms of Service
Effective date: 15 November 2026
These Terms of Service (Terms) govern your use of ClipYeti.com and related apps and services (the Service). The Service is operated by Alexander Wall, a sole trader trading as ClipYeti (ABN 22 767 904 430) (ClipYeti, we, us). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
1. The Service
ClipYeti is a video editing tool. You provide a video, by uploading a file or submitting a link, and the Service uses automated tools, including artificial intelligence, to suggest and create short clips (Clips). Features include highlight detection, reframing, transcription and captions, chat-based editing, idea and slide drafts, AI voices, voice cloning, and publishing to accounts you connect, such as YouTube. We provide the software; you decide what content to process and how to use the results.
2. Eligibility and accounts
- You must be at least 18, or at least 13 with the consent of a parent or guardian who agrees to these Terms on your behalf.
- You must give accurate account information and keep your login details secure. You are responsible for activity on your account.
- If you use the Service for a business, you confirm you have authority to bind that business to these Terms.
3. Your content and your responsibilities
- Your Content means any video, audio, image, text, link, voice sample or other material you submit, and the Clips created from it.
- You must only submit content that you own or have all rights, licences and permissions needed to copy, edit, process and publish, including the rights of anyone who appears or is heard in it.
- When you submit a link to a third-party platform (such as YouTube), you are solely responsible for making sure that accessing, copying and editing that content is permitted by the content owner and by that platform’s terms. ClipYeti is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by YouTube, Google, Instagram, Meta, TikTok or any other platform.
- You are responsible for how you use, publish and monetise Clips, including compliance with copyright law and the rules of any platform you post to.
- You must follow our Acceptable Use Policy, which forms part of these Terms.
4. YouTube API Services
The Service uses YouTube API Services, including when you sign in with Google, connect a YouTube channel or publish Clips to YouTube. By using the Service, you agree to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service. Google’s handling of your data is covered by the Google Privacy Policy. You can revoke ClipYeti’s access to your Google and YouTube data at any time through your Google security settings.
5. Voice cloning
You may only create a voice clone of your own voice, or of another person’s voice with that person’s express, informed consent. You must not use a cloned voice to impersonate, deceive or mislead anyone. Voice samples are processed by our voice provider, ElevenLabs, to create and use the clone. You can delete a voice clone at any time.
6. Licence you give us
You keep ownership of Your Content. You grant ClipYeti a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, copy, process, transcribe, analyse, modify and display Your Content only as needed to operate, secure and improve the Service and to provide it to you. We do not use Your Content to train AI models. This licence ends when Your Content is deleted from our systems, except for anything we must keep by law.
7. AI-generated output
Clips, captions, titles, voices, drafts and suggestions are produced automatically and may contain errors, mis-transcriptions or unsuitable edits. Review all output before you publish it. As between you and us, you own the Clips created from Your Content, to the extent the law allows ownership. Similar output may be generated for other users, and we do not give exclusive rights in it.
8. Plans, credits and refunds
Paid plans, credits and billing are covered by our Subscriptions, Billing & Refunds Policy, which forms part of these Terms. Prices are in US dollars.
9. Storage and deletion
On the Free plan, an uploaded video with no exported Clip is deleted 30 days after upload. On paid plans, this happens after 90 days. We email you 7 days before deletion. Videos with an exported Clip are kept until you delete them or close your account. The Service is not a backup service, so download anything you want to keep.
10. Our intellectual property
The Service, including its software, design, logos and the ClipYeti name, belongs to us or our licensors. You may not copy, reverse engineer, resell or create derivative works of the Service except as the law allows.
11. Copyright complaints
We respond to notices of alleged infringement under our Copyright & Takedown Policy. We may remove content and suspend or close the accounts of repeat infringers.
12. Suspension and termination
You may close your account at any time. We may suspend or end your access, with notice where reasonable, if you breach these Terms, if required by law, or if your use creates risk for us or others. Sections that by their nature should survive (including 6, 10, 13, 14, 15 and 17) survive termination.
13. Australian Consumer Law
Our services come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts or modifies any right or remedy you have under the Australian Consumer Law or any other law that cannot lawfully be excluded. Where we are allowed to limit our liability for breach of a consumer guarantee, our liability is limited to supplying the services again or paying the cost of having them supplied again.
14. Disclaimers and limitation of liability
- Subject to section 13, the Service is provided “as is” and “as available”. We do not promise it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that Clips will achieve any level of views, engagement or income.
- Subject to section 13, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, loss of profits, revenue, data or goodwill, or for loss caused by Your Content, third-party platforms, or your use of Clips.
- Subject to section 13, our total liability to you in connection with the Service is limited to the greater of the fees you paid us in the 12 months before the claim and US$100.
15. Indemnity
To the extent permitted by law, you indemnify ClipYeti against claims, losses and costs arising from Your Content, your use of Clips, or your breach of these Terms or of anyone else’s rights, except to the extent caused by our negligence or breach.
16. Changes
We may update these Terms. If a change is material, we will email you at least 10 days before it takes effect. If you keep using the Service after the change takes effect, the updated Terms apply. If you do not agree, you can cancel before the change takes effect. We do not refund any part of a billing period you have already paid for.
17. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia. Each party submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Victoria. Before starting proceedings, please contact us so we can try to resolve the issue in good faith. If you are a consumer in another country, you may also have rights under your local law.
18. General
If any part of these Terms is invalid, the rest continues to apply. Our failure to enforce a right is not a waiver. You may not transfer your rights under these Terms without our consent. These Terms, together with the policies they refer to, are the entire agreement between you and us about the Service.
