Terms of Service

These terms govern your use of PeakCut Studio (the "Service"): the online editor at peakcutstudio.com, the desktop app and the paid PeakCut Studio Pro plan. By using the Service you accept these terms.

1. Who we are

The Service is provided by Bernardo Maria Mendonça Cordeiro, tax number (NIF) 271835621, Rua Cidade de Leiria 5, 2775-394 Parede, Portugal ("we", "us"). Contact: suporte@peakcutstudio.com. More details in the legal notice.

2. The Service

PeakCut Studio is a video editor that runs on your device. Your video, audio and image files are processed locally and are not uploaded to our servers. The free plan can be used without an account. The Pro plan unlocks the features listed on the pricing page.

3. Pro plan, payment and renewal

• Pro is a monthly subscription of €9.99 (the final price, including any applicable taxes, is shown at checkout).
• Payments are processed by Whop, which acts as the payment platform. Whop's terms apply to the purchase process.
• The subscription renews automatically every month until you cancel. You can cancel at any time at whop.com/@me/settings/orders and keep access until the end of the period you already paid for.
• Each purchase includes a personal license key that can be activated on up to 3 devices. The key may not be shared, resold or published.
• We may change the price with at least 30 days' notice; the change only applies to later renewals.

4. Right of withdrawal and refunds

As a consumer in the European Union you have a 14-day right of withdrawal. Regardless of that, we offer a full refund within 14 days of your first purchase, no questions asked. See the refund policy.

5. Your content

The videos and projects you create are yours. We claim no rights over them. You are responsible for having permission to use the material you import (for example music, footage or images owned by others) and for how you use the videos you export.

6. Acceptable use

You may not: bypass or disable license checks; copy, decompile or redistribute the software except where the law allows it; use the Service to create illegal content or content that infringes the rights of others; or overload our servers.

7. AI copilot and third-party services

The AI copilot uses the Anthropic API with a key that you set up and pay for directly with Anthropic. When you use it, your request text, a project summary and any frames the copilot asks to see are sent to Anthropic under its terms. Transcription downloads a speech recognition model from Hugging Face. The Service includes open-source components licensed under their respective licenses.

8. Intellectual property

The software, the PeakCut Studio brand, the logo and the website belong to us or our licensors. Your subscription gives you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the software while it is active.

9. Availability and warranties

We do our best to keep the Service working well and without interruption, but we can't guarantee it will always be error-free. We recommend you keep copies of your original files. Nothing in these terms limits the rights the law gives you as a consumer, including the legal guarantee of conformity for digital content and services.

10. Liability

To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect losses, such as lost profits or data, arising from use of the Service. This limitation does not apply in cases of intent or gross negligence, or to damages that the law does not allow to be excluded.

11. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. If the changes are significant, we will give reasonable notice. The date at the top shows the latest version.

12. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by Portuguese law. For consumer disputes you may use an alternative dispute resolution body such as CNIACC (Portuguese National Consumer Arbitration Centre), or the Electronic Complaints Book. More information on the Portuguese Consumer Portal. If you live elsewhere in the EU, the mandatory consumer protection rules of your country of residence still apply.
