Terms of Service

What VOD Manager does

VOD Manager is a tool for archiving Twitch VODs into storage you control. You connect a Twitch account, configure a storage profile (your own S3-compatible bucket, your Google Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive — or, if enabled, the opt-in shared free tier), and we detect new broadcasts as they end and archive them on your behalf.

Acceptable use

Use VOD Manager only for content you have the right to archive. Do not point it at channels you do not own or manage, do not use it to harass third parties, and do not abuse, scrape, or reverse-engineer the service or its APIs. Bulk operations should stay within published limits; if you need more, ask first.

Twitch’s terms still apply

VOD Manager uses Twitch’s public APIs and EventSub webhooks. You remain responsible for complying with Twitch’s developer agreement, community guidelines, and other Twitch policies. We cannot insulate you from Twitch policy decisions, account actions, API rate limits, or VOD retention rules they enforce on the source side.

Storage provider terms still apply

When you connect your own storage — S3-compatible, Google Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive — you remain bound by that provider’s terms of service, billing, and acceptable-use rules. We write archives to the storage profile you choose; we do not broker, proxy, or assume responsibility for that relationship. Provider costs, availability, region selection, retention, and lifecycle rules are yours to manage.

Free tier limits

The optional free shared tier is opt-in and intentionally constrained: archives are kept on a VOD Manager-owned bucket for roughly 72 hours, with a per-user cap of 10 VODs and 10 clips, and per-archive size limits of 8 GB for VODs and 1 GB for clips. Keep-forever is not available on the free tier. Free-tier archives are automatically purged when they expire or when limits are exceeded; for unlimited retention or larger archives, connect your own storage.

Archive reliability

We work to detect and archive streams after Twitch publishes a VOD, but archive completeness is not guaranteed. Twitch may not produce a VOD, may remove it before detection runs, or your storage credentials may lapse — any of which can cause an individual broadcast to be missed.

Suspension and termination

We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate acceptable use, exceed announced limits, or engage in abuse. We may also pause access for maintenance, provider outages, security work, or operational incidents. You can delete your VOD Manager account at any time from the settings UI.

No warranty

The service is provided "AS IS" and without warranty. To the fullest extent allowed by law, we disclaim implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, VOD Manager and its operators are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, lost profits, or loss of data arising out of your use of the service. Our total liability for any claim related to the service is limited to the amount you paid us in the twelve months preceding the claim.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms over time. For material changes we will give notice by email and an in-app banner before the change takes effect; minor clarifications and typo fixes may go live without notice. Continued use of the service after a material change indicates acceptance of the updated terms.

Privacy

Our privacy policy explains what account, OAuth, storage, archive metadata, webhook, and audit-log data we process. Please review it before using the service. Read the privacy policy
