Terms of Service

Last updated 3 August 2026

1. Agreement

These terms govern your use of video-goblin (the “Service”), a browser-based video editor operated by Sergej Popov (“we”, “us”). By using the Service you accept them. If you do not, please do not use it.

2. What the Service is

video-goblin is an AI-assisted video editor that runs in your web browser. Editing, playback and export all happen on your own machine. Signing in with a Google account is required for exporting and for the AI agent; everything else works without an account.

The Service is under active development and is provided as a work in progress. Features may change or be removed.

3. Your account

You sign in with Google. You are responsible for keeping access to that Google account secure, and for activity that happens under your account. You must be old enough to hold a Google account in your country, and at least 13.

4. Your content

You keep all rights to the video, audio, images, projects and text you bring to or create with the Service. We claim no ownership or licence over them. Because your media and projects are stored in your browser rather than on our servers, we have no access to them and cannot recover them if your browser storage is cleared or lost. Keep your own backups of anything you care about.

You are responsible for having the rights to the material you edit, and for what you produce with it.

5. AI features and your API keys

The AI agent works by calling OpenAI or Google Gemini with an API key that you supply. That means:

  • you are billed directly by that provider for what you use, and we never see or handle those charges;
  • your use of the provider is governed by their terms, and you must comply with them;
  • you are responsible for keeping your key confidential and for revoking it if it is exposed.

AI output can be wrong, and edits an agent makes are still your responsibility to review. Every edit the agent performs can be undone.

6. Google Drive

Connecting Google Drive is optional. When connected, the Service can access only files you explicitly select through Google's file picker and files it creates itself. You may disconnect at any time. Your use of Google Drive remains subject to Google's own terms.

7. Acceptable use

You agree not to use the Service to:

  • break the law, or infringe anyone's intellectual property or privacy;
  • create or distribute material that is unlawful, or that sexualises children;
  • produce deceptive media intended to defraud or impersonate a real person or organisation;
  • attack, overload, probe or reverse-engineer the Service or the infrastructure behind it;
  • circumvent any access control, quota or limit.

8. Availability

The Service is provided free of charge and without any guarantee of availability. We may change, suspend or discontinue it, in whole or in part, at any time and without notice.

9. No warranty

The Service is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose, merchantability and non-infringement. We do not warrant that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that it will not lose data.

10. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential loss, nor for lost data, lost projects, lost profits, or costs you incur with an AI provider. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, including for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.

11. Ending your use

You may stop using the Service at any time and ask us to delete your account, as described in the Privacy Policy. We may suspend or terminate access if these terms are breached in a way that harms other users, our providers, or the Service itself.

12. Changes

We may update these terms. The “last updated” date above will change, and continuing to use the Service after a change means you accept the updated terms.

13. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales, and the courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction, except where mandatory consumer protection law in your country of residence gives you the right to bring proceedings locally.
