Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using Pod2Reels ("the Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the Service. We may update these terms at any time; continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.

2. Description of Service

Pod2Reels is an AI-powered platform that helps content creators convert YouTube videos into short-form clips (Reels, Shorts, TikToks). The Service uses publicly available YouTube transcripts, AI analysis, and video processing to identify and generate viral moments from videos you provide.

3. Account Registration

You must sign in via Google (Firebase Authentication) to use the core features. You are responsible for keeping your account secure. You must provide accurate information and must be at least 18 years old. We reserve the right to terminate accounts that violate these terms.

4. Credits and Billing

The Service uses a credit system. New accounts receive 50 free credits (1 credit = 30 seconds of video processed). Paid packages grant additional credits as described at checkout. Credits are non-transferable and tied to your account.

Free accounts: clips are generated with a "pod2reels.com" watermark. Paid accounts: clips are generated without a watermark. The specific credit amounts and pricing for each package are displayed on the pricing page and at checkout.

5. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

• Submit YouTube videos for which you do not have the necessary rights, licences, or permissions to process and clip
• Use the Service to infringe copyright, trademarks, or other intellectual property rights
• Attempt to circumvent rate limits, scrape the platform, or automate requests beyond normal use
• Use the Service to create content that is unlawful, defamatory, harassing, or harmful
• Resell or sublicence access to the Service without our written permission

6. YouTube Content and Third-Party Rights

Pod2Reels processes YouTube videos using publicly available transcripts and YouTube's content delivery. You are solely responsible for ensuring you have the right to clip and redistribute any content you process through the Service. Pod2Reels does not host or permanently store YouTube video files — raw video is fetched only for the duration of clip processing and deleted immediately after.

Use of the Service must comply with YouTube's Terms of Service and applicable copyright law, including fair use principles where applicable.

7. Intellectual Property

You retain ownership of any content you submit. By using the Service, you grant Pod2Reels a limited, non-exclusive licence to process your submitted content solely to provide the Service. We do not claim any ownership over the clips you generate.

The Pod2Reels platform, brand, and all original code and content are owned by Pod2Reels and protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

8. Disclaimer of Warranties

The Service is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not guarantee that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that clips will meet any particular quality standard. AI-identified moments may not always match your expectations — this is inherent to AI-based selection.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Pod2Reels shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of or inability to use the Service. Our total liability to you for any claim shall not exceed the amount you paid for the Service in the 12 months preceding the claim.

10. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your account at any time for violation of these terms. You may delete your account by contacting us. Upon termination, unused credits are forfeited unless otherwise required by law or our Refund Policy.

11. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of India. Any disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts in India.
