Terms of Service

1. Acceptance

By accessing or using the Service, you confirm that:

1. You are at least thirteen (13) years of age, or the minimum age required by the laws of your jurisdiction to enter into a binding agreement, whichever is greater;
2. You have read and understood these Terms;
3. You agree to use the Service in accordance with these Terms and all applicable laws.

If you do not agree to any part of these Terms, you must not use the Service.

2. Description of the Service

lucyna.dev is a small personal project that provides free, browser-based tools. The Service currently includes:

1. Clipped — an in-browser video trimming and cropping tool that processes video files locally using ffmpeg.wasm. Video files are not uploaded to the Service.
2. Musiced — a local music application that stores audio files in your browser's Origin Private File System (OPFS) and stores metadata and playlists in IndexedDB on your device. Musiced includes an optional search aggregator that queries third-party music platform APIs and displays linked results.

The Service is provided free of charge and does not require account creation, registration, or payment. Additional tools may be added or existing tools may be modified or removed over time.

3. License to Use the Service

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, you are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable permission to access and use the Service for personal, educational, internal, or other lawful purposes, provided that you do not resell, sublicense, or commercially exploit the Service itself or any substantial portion of its assets.

This permission does not grant you any ownership rights in the Service.

4. Your Content and Files

4.1 Ownership

You retain all rights to any files or content that you process, import, or store through the Service. The Service claims no ownership over your content.

4.2 Local Processing

The Tools are designed to run inside your browser. Files you open or import through the Tools are not transmitted to the Service. Specifically:

1. Clipped reads video files from your device, processes them locally within your browser tab, and writes the result back as a downloaded file. No video data is uploaded.
2. Musiced stores imported audio files in the Origin Private File System (OPFS) within your browser. Track metadata, playlists, and related data are stored in IndexedDB on your device. None of this is transmitted to the Service.

4.3 Your Responsibility

You are solely responsible for any content you process through the Service. By using the Tools, you confirm that:

1. You own or have the necessary rights, licenses, or permissions to process the content;
2. Your use of the content does not violate any law, including copyright, trademark, privacy, or data-protection laws;
3. You will not use the Tools to handle material you are not entitled to handle.

5. Search Aggregator and Third-Party Content

The search feature in Musiced queries third-party music platform APIs (currently including YouTube, iTunes, Deezer, SoundCloud, and Internet Archive) and displays aggregated results within the Service. The following terms apply:

1. Search results consist of metadata (such as titles, artists, thumbnails) and links to the source platforms. The Service does not host, mirror, store, or redistribute the underlying music or media content.
2. When you click a search result, you are taken to the source platform. Your use of that platform is governed by its own terms of service and privacy policy.
3. The Service does not import third-party content into your local library. Any acquisition of media from a source platform happens on that platform, under its own terms.
4. The availability and accuracy of search results depend on the third-party platforms and may change or become unavailable at any time.
5. You agree not to use the search feature to scrape, harvest, or extract third-party content in a manner that violates the terms of service of the source platforms, applicable copyright law, or any other applicable law.

6. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

1. Use the Service in violation of any applicable law or regulation;
2. Use the Service to harass, threaten, defame, or harm any person;
3. Use the Tools to process material that infringes the intellectual property, privacy, or other rights of third parties;
4. Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Service or its underlying systems;
5. Probe, scan, or test the security of the Service, or attempt to bypass any rate limits, access controls, or other protective measures;
6. Use automated means to access the Service in a way that places unreasonable load on its infrastructure, or that exceeds the rate limits applied to the search feature;
7. Scrape, mirror, replicate, or republish the Service or substantial portions of its assets at scale without prior written permission;
8. Interfere with or disrupt the Service or its availability to other users;
9. Introduce malware, viruses, or other harmful code through the Service.

7. Intellectual Property

7.1 Service Materials

The design, layout, original code, text, and branding of the Service are the property of the operator of lucyna.dev or its licensors. Because the Service runs in the browser, parts of its code (HTML, CSS, and JavaScript) are visible to users by the nature of how browsers work; this visibility does not transfer any ownership rights to you.

You may not copy substantial portions of the Service's code, design, or assets in order to operate a competing service or to republish the Service under another name, except to the extent permitted by applicable law or by the licenses of any open-source components used by the Service.

7.2 Open-Source Components

The Service uses certain open-source software and libraries, each governed by its respective license. Those components remain the property of their respective owners and are used in accordance with their licenses. Nothing in these Terms restricts your rights under those licenses.

7.3 Trademarks

"lucyna.dev," "Clipped," "Musiced," and any associated logos are the marks of the operator. You may use these names for factual reference (such as linking to or describing the Service), but not in a way that implies endorsement or affiliation without prior written consent.

8. Technical Restrictions

You agree not to:

1. Bypass, disable, or interfere with any security, access-control, rate-limit, or other technical restrictions applied to the Service;
2. Use the Service or its features to scrape, replicate, or extract substantial portions of its content or third-party search results in a manner that violates these Terms or applicable law;
3. Reproduce or distribute substantial portions of the Service's code or assets for the purpose of operating a competing or substantially similar service.

Nothing in this section restricts activities that are expressly permitted by applicable law (including any statutory reverse-engineering exceptions) or by the licenses of any open-source components used by the Service.

9. No Backup or Recovery

Data that you store within the Service (including audio files imported into Musiced, playlists, application preferences, palette overrides, the recently played track, and other locally cached state) is stored on your device using browser storage mechanisms (OPFS, IndexedDB, localStorage, and the service worker cache).

You acknowledge and agree that:

1. The Service does not back up, archive, or retain copies of your locally stored data;
2. The Service cannot recover your data if it is lost as a result of clearing your browser data, switching browsers or devices, losing access to your browser profile, hardware failure, browser updates, or other events outside our control;
3. The "Wipe everything" function within the Service is intentionally irreversible and will permanently delete locally stored data;
4. You are solely responsible for maintaining your own backups of any data that you consider important.

10. Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the operator disclaims all warranties, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and uninterrupted or error-free operation.

Without limiting the foregoing, the operator makes no warranty that:

1. The Service will meet your specific requirements;
2. The Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free;
3. Any defects will be corrected;
4. The results obtained from use of the Service will be accurate or reliable;
5. The Service will remain available indefinitely.

The Service depends on third-party infrastructure, browser features, and external APIs that may change, become unavailable, or behave inconsistently across devices and jurisdictions.

11. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE OPERATOR BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA, LOST GOODWILL, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE SERVICE.

THE OPERATOR'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE SHALL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED UNITED STATES DOLLARS ($100 USD).

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages. In those jurisdictions, the limitations above apply to the maximum extent permitted by law, and nothing in these Terms restricts any mandatory consumer-protection rights you may have under applicable law.

12. Changes, Suspension, and Termination

12.1 Changes to the Service

The Service may be modified, expanded, reduced, or discontinued at any time, with or without notice.

12.2 Changes to These Terms

These Terms may be updated from time to time. When material changes are made, the "Last updated" date at the top of this page will be revised, and a notice may appear on the home page of the Service for a reasonable period. Continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

12.4 Termination by the Operator

12.5 Survival

Provisions of these Terms that by their nature are intended to survive termination (including Sections 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, and 14) shall remain in effect after termination.

13. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Wisconsin, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles.

Any disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Wisconsin, except where mandatory consumer-protection law in your country of residence provides otherwise.

If you are a consumer outside the United States, nothing in this section restricts the mandatory consumer rights granted to you under the laws of your country of residence.
