Privacy Policy

1. Overview

EditClips.online ("the Service") is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding that data.

2. Browser-Based Processing

When you use our free tools, all file processing happens entirely in your browser using WebAssembly. Your files are never uploaded to our servers. We cannot see, access, or store any files you process in browser mode. This is a core principle of the Service.

3. Server-Side Processing (Pro)

If you use the server-side processing feature, your files are temporarily uploaded to our cloud storage (Cloudflare R2) for processing. Uploaded files and processing outputs are automatically deleted after 7 days. We do not access, review, or use the content of your files for any purpose other than performing the requested processing operation.

4. Video Sharing

When you use the share feature, your processed video is uploaded to our cloud storage (Cloudflare R2) and made publicly accessible via a unique link. Anyone with the link can view the video. In addition:

• A thumbnail image is automatically generated from your video and stored alongside it
• Your IP address is recorded for rate limiting and abuse prevention
• We track the number of views on each shared video
• If you are logged in, your user ID is associated with the share
• Shared videos expire and are automatically deleted after 24 hours for anonymous users or 7 days for registered users

You can request removal of a shared video at any time by using the "Report or request removal" link on the share page, or by contacting us at support@editclips.online.

5. Usage Analytics

We collect anonymous usage data when you process files, including the tool used, processing engine (browser or server), whether the operation succeeded or failed, processing duration, file sizes, and your IP address. This data is used to monitor service health, identify broken tools, and improve the Service. It is not linked to your identity unless you are logged in.

6. Account Information

When you create an account, we collect your name, email address, and a securely hashed password. This information is used to authenticate you, manage your account, and send transactional emails (such as password reset requests and account notifications).

7. Payment Data

Payments are processed by Paddle, our merchant of record. We do not collect, store, or have access to your credit card number or other payment method details. Paddle handles all payment processing and may collect additional information as described in their privacy policy.

8. Cookies & Analytics

We use a session cookie to keep you logged in when you have an account. We do not use advertising cookies. We use Google Analytics to collect anonymous usage statistics such as page views, referral sources, and device information. Google Analytics may set cookies on your device. You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

9. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services:

• Cloudflare — Hosting, CDN, DNS, and cloud storage (R2) for server-side processing and video sharing
• Paddle — Payment processing and subscription management
• Resend — Transactional email delivery (password resets, account notifications)
• Google Analytics — Anonymous website usage statistics

Each of these services has its own privacy policy governing how they handle data.

10. Data Retention

Account data is retained for as long as your account is active. Files uploaded for server-side processing are automatically deleted after 7 days. Shared videos are automatically deleted after their expiry period (24 hours or 7 days). Processing history records (tool used, file sizes, timestamps) are retained for service improvement but do not include the actual file content.

11. Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you
• Correct inaccurate personal data
• Delete your account and associated data from your account settings
• Request a copy of your data

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at support@editclips.online.

12. Children's Privacy

The Service is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn that we have collected such information, we will promptly delete it.

13. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. We will notify registered users of material changes via email. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects when the policy was last revised.
