S-Roll Terms of Use

1. What S-Roll is

S-Roll is a macOS application that finds, edits, and exports clips from video files you provide, processing them on your own Mac. These Terms are a binding agreement between you and Ritik Bompilwar, the individual developer and owner of S-Roll (“I”, “me”, or “my”), about your use of the app. Saliency is a brand name I use; it is not a separate legal entity.

2. Your content, your responsibility

Your videos and the clips S-Roll produces from them are yours to use, including commercially. As between you and me, I claim no ownership in your content or in the output you export. That is an ownership statement, not a guarantee: I cannot promise that any particular output is original, non-infringing, or cleared for your intended use. You are solely responsible for the content you import and the clips you publish: for having the necessary rights to the footage, for complying with the laws that apply to it (including recording-consent and privacy laws), and for following the rules of any platform where you publish. I never see your content and take no responsibility for it.

3. License

You get a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to install and use S-Roll on Macs you own or control. You may not redistribute, resell, or sublicense the app itself, and you may not reverse engineer it except where the law expressly permits. For copies obtained from the Mac App Store, the license to the app is Apple’s standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement; these Terms apply in addition to it, and if the two conflict for an App Store copy, Apple’s standard EULA controls the license.

4. Third-party components

The app includes open-source components and, at first launch, downloads machine-learning model files; these are subject to their own licenses (including the Apache License 2.0), copies of which are included with the app.

5. Updates

I may publish updates, and in rare cases ask versions with a known safety or correctness problem to update before continuing. The app never deletes or uploads your local projects, clips, or models as part of this. I am not obligated to provide updates, new features, or continued availability of the app.

6. No warranty

S-Roll is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. I do not warrant that the app will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components, or that it will meet your requirements. Machine-generated transcripts, clip selections, framing, and captions can be wrong, incomplete, or unsuitable; review everything before you publish it. The app processes files you provide on your machine: keep your own backups, and do not treat the app as a storage or archival system.

7. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, I will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, footage, profits, revenue, goodwill, or business opportunity, or for the cost of substitute products, arising out of or relating to the app, its output, or these Terms, under any legal theory (contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or otherwise), even if I was advised such damages were possible. To the same maximum extent, my total aggregate liability for all claims relating to the app is limited to the greater of the amount you paid for the app and fifty US dollars (USD 50). Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions or limits; where that is the case, these apply to the fullest extent the law allows.

8. Indemnification

You will defend and indemnify me against third-party claims, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your content, from clips you publish, from unlawful use of the app, or from your breach of these Terms. I will notify you promptly of any such claim and reasonably cooperate with you.

9. Mac App Store

These Terms are between you and me, not Apple. I am responsible for the app and, to the extent required by applicable law, for its maintenance and support; Apple has no obligation to provide either. If an App Store copy of the app fails to conform to an applicable warranty, you may notify Apple and Apple will refund the purchase price; to the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation for the app. Apple is not responsible for any other claims relating to the app (including product-liability, consumer-protection, privacy, or regulatory claims) or for claims that the app infringes intellectual-property rights. You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo and are not on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.

10. Termination

Your license ends automatically if you breach these Terms. Sections 2, 4, and 6 through 9 survive any termination, along with anything else that by its nature should survive.

11. Changes

If these Terms change, the updated text will be posted at this page with a new effective date.

12. General

If any part of these Terms is unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. Not enforcing a provision is not a waiver of it. You may not assign these Terms; I may assign them to a successor that takes over S-Roll (for example, a company I form). These Terms are the entire agreement between us about the app. Nothing in them limits rights you have under mandatory consumer-protection law.
