Terms of Service

Effective 2026-10-06

These terms are the agreement between you and RipClip for using RipClip. By creating an account or using RipClip you agree to them. The short version: your videos stay yours, only upload what you have the right to use, check your clips before you post them, and you can cancel or delete your account at any time.

1. Your account

• You must be at least 13 years old, or 16 in the EU and the UK. If you're under 18, you need a parent's or guardian's permission, and they accept these terms for you.
• Give a real email address and keep your password to yourself. You're responsible for what happens under your account.
• One person per account. Your username is public; your email and your Library are not.

2. Your content

• You keep ownership of the videos, images, fonts and music you upload and of the clips you make.
• You give us permission to store, process and display that content only to run RipClip for you: to transcribe it, find moments, render clips, show them to you and publish them where you tell us to. That permission ends when you delete the content or your account, except for copies you've already published elsewhere.
• Only upload content you have the right to use. If you clip someone else's stream or video, you need their permission or another legal right to do so. Don't upload anything illegal, hateful, sexually explicit involving minors, or that infringes someone else's rights.
• We may remove content or suspend accounts that break these rules, and we respond to valid copyright notices sent to [email protected].
• When you add a video or a link, you confirm you own it or have permission to use it. We close the accounts of people who repeatedly upload content that infringes someone else's copyright.

Shared presets

• You can share an editing preset you made with the RipClip Community. You keep ownership of it.
• By sharing it, you give us and other RipClip users a free, non-exclusive licence to show it and its preview in RipClip and to use it in their own videos made with RipClip. Videos people have already made with it stay theirs after you unshare it.
• Share only presets you made yourself, with nothing from anyone else. Shared presets can only use RipClip's own fonts, sounds and stickers; the preview is made from your own clip, so it must be footage you have the right to show.
• We review every preset before it becomes public, and we may decline or remove any preset at any time, for example after reports. You can unshare yours at any time.

3. Automatic results

Captions, clip suggestions and rankings are made automatically and can be wrong. Review your clips before you publish them. RipClip doesn't promise views, followers or any other result.

4. Posting to social platforms

When you connect an Instagram, Facebook, Threads, TikTok, YouTube, X or Bluesky account, RipClip publishes only the posts you schedule or tell it to post. Each platform's own terms apply to what you post there, and you're responsible for following them: for TikTok, its Terms of Service and Community Guidelines; for Instagram, Facebook and Threads, the Meta Terms and Instagram's Terms of Use; for X, the X Terms of Service; for Bluesky, the Bluesky Terms of Service. By connecting a YouTube channel you also agree to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service. Free-plan clips carry RipClip's watermark, and TikTok does not allow an app's watermark on posted videos. The first time you post such a clip to a TikTok account, RipClip warns you and asks you to confirm; if you post it anyway, TikTok may hide or remove it, and a paid plan exports clips without the watermark. You can disconnect an account at any time in Accounts, and remove RipClip's access on the platform itself (see Delete your data).

5. The plan and payment

• Plans: a free plan and three monthly plans, from $29.99 per month: Free ($0, 110 Horizon Units once), Creator ($29.99 a month, 350 Horizon Units), Pro ($59.99 a month, 650 Horizon Units) and Studio ($129.99 a month, 1,500 Horizon Units). The pricing page lists each plan's limits and features. Exports on the Free plan carry a RipClip watermark, and Premium features need a paid plan; every paid plan includes all features. There are no setup fees or hidden charges. Sales tax or VAT is added only where the law requires it, and it is shown before you pay.
• Trying without an account: you can upload one video of up to 30 minutes and clip and edit it without signing up. Exporting, downloading and posting need an account. What you make is deleted after 24 hours unless you create an account.
• Free credits: a free account gets 110 Horizon Units once, after you confirm your email. They are limited to one account per person: an account made from a device or network that already got them, from the same kind of browser on the same connection within a day of another, with a throwaway email address, or with a second address for the same mailbox (for example the same Gmail address with dots or a "+" tag added), is still created but starts without them.
• Free trial: the Creator plan can start with a 7-day free trial, once per account, once per card, once per device and once per email address, with 150 Horizon Units to use during the trial, given in three parts a day apart (50 when it starts, 50 the next day, 50 the day after, while the trial runs); the plan's full monthly units start with the first paid month. Prepaid cards, and cards whose security-code check fails, can't start the trial. If a card or device can't, the trial is cancelled before anything is charged and you can subscribe without it. You give a card when you start it. If you don't cancel before the trial ends, the trial turns into the paid plan and the first monthly payment is taken on day 8; we show that date before you start. Cancel any time during the trial in Account settings and you won't be charged; your account then moves to the free plan.
• Referral offer (waitlist): when you join the ripclip.org waitlist you get an invite link. When 2 friends join the waitlist with your link, you get one month of the Creator plan free; we apply it to your RipClip account, the one made with the email you joined with. Only the first 2 friends who join with your link count, and they must be real, different people: sign-ups from your own network or devices, repeat or throwaway sign-ups, and anything else made only to earn the reward don't count. One reward per person. We may cancel rewards gained by fake sign-ups. The free month has no cash value and can't be transferred.
• The plan renews automatically each month until you cancel. We'll show the price and renewal date before you subscribe, and email a receipt for each payment.
• You can cancel at any time with Manage plan on your Dashboard. Cancelling stops the next renewal and you keep access until the end of the month you've paid for. Refunds are covered in the Refund Policy.
• If we ever change the price, we'll tell you at least 30 days before your next renewal, and you can cancel before it applies.
• Each plan includes a monthly amount of Horizon Units, which pay for analysing your videos by their length; editing and exporting clips never use them. We'll publish any change to a plan's amount before it applies.

6. Using RipClip fairly

Don't try to break into other accounts or our systems, overload the service, resell it, scrape it, or use it to send spam. Don't use automated tools to create accounts.

7. Our part

• RipClip, Riptide, our code, designs and our own stickers and sounds belong to us. Fonts, emoji and other outside material belong to their owners and are used under their licenses (see Credits).
• We work to keep RipClip running and your data safe, but RipClip is provided "as is", may change, and may have outages or bugs. Keep your own copies of anything important. Library clips are deleted after 10 days.
• To the extent the law allows, we aren't liable for indirect or consequential losses, and our total liability is limited to what you paid us in the 12 months before the claim (or $50 if you paid nothing). Nothing here limits rights you have under consumer protection law that can't be limited.

8. Ending the agreement

You can stop using RipClip and delete your account at any time in Account settings. We may suspend or close accounts that seriously or repeatedly break these terms; we'll tell you why, unless the law or safety prevents it.

9. Law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Tennessee, USA. If you live in the EU or the UK you also keep the protection of the consumer laws where you live. Please contact us first; most problems can be fixed by email.

10. Changes to these terms

If we make an important change, we'll tell you at least 30 days before it takes effect. If you don't agree, you can cancel and delete your account before then.

Latest change (October 6, 2026): we added Shared presets. It only applies if you choose to share an editing preset in the Community gallery, and you agree to it again when you share one. Nothing else changed.
