Privacy policy
Clipmotor is a private tool that edits short videos and publishes them on our own YouTube channels, Vice Seconds and 60 Seconds of Vice. It is not a service for the public: only the people who run these channels sign in to it.
What we access through Google
When a channel owner connects a YouTube channel, Clipmotor asks Google for permission to:
- upload videos to that channel and set their title, description and thumbnail;
- read the channel's basic details and the statistics of its videos (views, watch time, likes).
Clipmotor uses YouTube API Services. By connecting a channel you also agree to the YouTube Terms of Service. Google's handling of your data is described in the Google Privacy Policy.
What we store and why
- Access tokens from Google, encrypted, so Clipmotor can upload to the connected channel without signing in each time.
- Channel and video statistics, to see which videos work and to plan the next ones.
- The sign-in address of the people allowed to use the dashboard, to check who has access.
We do not sell or share this data, we do not use it for advertising, and we do not combine it with data from other sources. It is stored on a server in the European Union.
Public videos we work from
Clipmotor reads public information about livestreams and videos (titles, timestamps, public statistics, the public video itself) to find moments worth clipping. It does not collect personal data about viewers.
How long we keep it
Tokens are kept until the channel is disconnected or access is revoked, then deleted. Statistics are kept as long as the channel is run with Clipmotor.
Revoking access
You can remove Clipmotor's access to a Google account at any time on the Google security settings page. The stored tokens then stop working, Clipmotor can no longer upload, and the tokens are deleted when the channel is disconnected in the dashboard.
