Terms of Service

Effective 28 July 2026. These terms are a contract between you and Motiontone (“we,” “us”). By creating an account or using the service you agree to them. If you do not agree, do not use the service.

1. Who can use it

You must be at least 16 years old. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may only use the service with the consent of a parent or guardian who agrees to these terms on your behalf. If you are using the service for an organisation, you confirm you are authorised to bind it.

2. Your account

Keep your login details secure. You are responsible for everything that happens under your account. Tell us promptly at support@motiontone.app if you believe it has been used without your permission.

3. Your content stays yours

You keep all rights in the text, images, fonts, audio and finished videos you bring to or make with the service (“your content”). We claim no ownership of it.

To actually run the service, you give us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, store, copy, transcode, analyse, and display your content — but only as far as is needed to operate and improve the service for you and to do the things you ask it to do. That includes:

• decoding audio you upload to draw its waveform and detect its tempo;
• combining your audio with your visuals into a video file you export;
• serving your project — including its audio — to anyone you give a share link to, for as long as that link is active;
• copying your project and its files into another user’s account when they remix a project you shared.

The licence ends when you delete the content or your account, except for copies other people already made through a share link you published, and backups that expire on their normal cycle.

4. What you promise about what you upload

This is the most important paragraph on this page. You represent and warrant that:

• you own, or have every licence, permission and consent needed for, all content you upload — including any music, recording, image, photograph, logo or font;
• your content, and our handling of it as described in section 3, does not infringe anyone’s copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity or other rights;
• your content is not unlawful, and you have the right to publish anything you export or share.

Uploading a track you do not have the rights to is a breach of these terms. We do not check what you upload and we cannot clear rights on your behalf.

5. What you may not do

• Upload or share content you do not have the rights to.
• Break the law, infringe others’ rights, or use the service to harass anyone.
• Interfere with the service — probing, scraping at scale, circumventing limits or watermarks, or reselling access.
• Attempt to access another user’s account or content.

6. Copyright complaints and takedowns

We respond to valid copyright complaints. If you believe content on the service infringes your copyright, email support@motiontone.appwith the subject line “Copyright” and include:

1. your physical or electronic signature, as the rights owner or someone authorised to act for them;
2. identification of the work you say is infringed;
3. the material you say is infringing and a link to it, so we can find it;
4. your name, address, telephone number and email address;
5. a statement that you believe in good faith that the use is not authorised by the rights owner, its agent, or the law;
6. a statement that the information in your notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are authorised to act for the rights owner.

We will remove or disable access to material that is the subject of a valid notice. If your material was removed and you believe that was a mistake or a misidentification, you can send a counter-notice to the same address, including your contact details, identification of the removed material and where it appeared, and a statement under penalty of perjury that you believe in good faith it was removed by mistake.

Repeat infringers. We keep a record of copyright complaints we act on. If we act on complaints about the same account more than twice, we will terminate that account. We may also terminate an account at any time for a single clear or serious infringement.

7. Plans, payment and cancellation

• A free plan is available. Paid plans are billed in advance and renew automatically at the end of each billing period until you cancel.
• You can cancel at any time from your account. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the period you have already paid for, and you keep paid features until then.
• Payments are handled by Stripe. Except where the law gives you a refund right, payments are non-refundable, including for partly used periods.
• We may change prices. Changes take effect at your next renewal and we will tell you first.
• Free-plan exports carry a watermark and are subject to limits on length and number, which we may adjust.

8. Availability and changes

We may change, suspend or discontinue any part of the service, and we may impose limits on storage, rendering or usage. We will try to give notice of significant changes but cannot always do so. There is no uptime guarantee.

9. Suspension and termination

You can stop using the service and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your account if you breach these terms, if we are required to by law, or if your use puts the service or other users at risk. On termination the licence in section 3 ends and your content is deleted as described in our Privacy Policy.

10. No warranties

The service is provided “as is” and “as available.” To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that your content will never be lost. Keep your own copies of anything you care about.

11. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or business opportunity, however caused and under any theory of liability.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability for all claims relating to the service is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim arose, or 50 US dollars.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions or limitations, so parts of the two paragraphs above may not apply to you. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.

12. Indemnity

You agree to defend, indemnify and hold us harmless from any claim, demand, loss, liability, damage, cost or expense — including reasonable legal fees — arising out of or related to your content, your use of the service, or your breach of these terms. That expressly includes any claim that content you uploaded, exported or shared infringes someone’s rights.

13. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. The effective date at the top always says when the current version took effect. If a change is material we will make a reasonable effort to tell you. Continuing to use the service after a change means you accept the updated terms.

14. Governing law

These terms are governed by the law applicable where the operator has its principal place of business, and any dispute will be brought in the courts of that place.

15. General

If any part of these terms is found unenforceable, the rest still applies. Our not enforcing a provision is not a waiver of it. You may not transfer your rights under these terms; we may transfer ours in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets. These terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between us about the service.
