Privacy Policy

• Account: your email address, your password (stored only in hashed form), when you signed up and last signed in, your plan or trial, any promo or referral codes, your email preferences, and how you heard about Boltis if you tell us.
• Twitch: if you connect Twitch, your Twitch ID, username, display name and profile picture, and the access tokens that let Boltis create clips for you. These are stored on our servers.
• Clips: details of the Twitch clips you make or import (ID, link, game and date), your clip tags, recently edited clips and custom censor words. Clips appear on a public page only if you turn sharing on.
• Captions and Smart Trim: when you use them, a clip's audio (for captions), or the clip and its transcript (for Smart Trim), is processed by our servers and our AI providers. We keep caption transcripts, which are not linked to your account, and a count of what you have used. Copies sent for Smart Trim are deleted once analysed.
• Usage and errors: which features you use, with your app version, linked to your account; error reports from the app; and any bug reports or feedback you send. You can turn usage data off in Settings.
• Payments: handled by our payment processor. We never see your card details; we receive your plan and subscription status.
• Website: when you click a download button, your IP address, browser and which button; if you ask us to email you a download link, your email address.
• TikTok and YouTube: if you connect them, their tokens and your account name stay on your computer only (see section 8).

• The app keeps your sign-in, clip list, settings and connected-account tokens in a local database, and your preferences in local storage. These are needed for it to work.
• boltis.app uses Google Analytics cookies only if you accept them in the cookie banner. You can change your choice at any time with Cookie settings at the bottom of every page. The app does not use Google Analytics.
• The site and app also use analytics and performance tools that do not set cookies, the app sends error reports, and our feedback forms, provided by a third party, may set their own cookies when you open one.
• The app's local data is in %APPDATA%\QuickClips. Uninstalling Boltis leaves it in place; delete that folder to remove it. Website cookies and storage can be cleared in your browser settings.

• To provide Boltis (our contract with you): your account, creating clips, captions, Smart Trim, sending videos to TikTok and YouTube, payments, and account emails such as verification, password resets and plan notices.
• Our legitimate interests: improving the app from usage data, fixing errors, keeping Boltis secure and free of abuse, and counting downloads. You can object to these.
• Your consent: Google Analytics on boltis.app, and marketing emails. You can withdraw consent at any time.
• Legal obligation: keeping payment records for tax.

We do not sell your information or use it for advertising.

• Service providers that run parts of Boltis for us under contract: hosting, speech-to-text, AI video analysis (Google), payments, email delivery, analytics, error monitoring and forms.
• Platforms you connect: Twitch, to create your clips, and TikTok and YouTube, only when you send them a video.
• Authorities, when the law requires it.

Some providers process information outside the UK, including in the United States. Those transfers rely on UK adequacy regulations or the UK's approved transfer agreements.

• Account, clip and usage data: until you delete your account, which removes it, including your Twitch tokens.
• Bug reports: up to one year.
• Payment records: as long as tax law requires.
• On your computer: until you disconnect an account or delete the data folder above.

We use appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your information, including encryption in transit, and limit access to what is needed to run Boltis.

You can ask to access, correct, delete, restrict or receive a copy of your information, object to how we use it, and withdraw consent. Delete your account from the account menu in the app (cancel Premium first), or email us for anything else. We reply within one month. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.

Connecting YouTube is optional. Boltis uses YouTube API Services to upload a video you choose to your channel, with the visibility you pick (Private, Unlisted or Public), and to read your channel name. It acts only when you click to send, and publishes publicly only if you choose Public and confirm. By connecting you agree to the YouTube Terms of Service, and Google's use of your data is covered by the Google Privacy Policy. YouTube data is never sold or used for advertising.

What is stored: your YouTube tokens and your channel's ID and name, on your computer only. Nothing is stored on our servers, and we do not keep details of the videos you upload. Your channel details are refreshed each time the token is refreshed, and at least every 24 hours while Boltis runs.

Connecting TikTok is optional. Boltis uses it only to send a video you choose to your TikTok account when you click to send. Your TikTok tokens stay on your computer, and disconnecting in Settings deletes them. See the TikTok Privacy Policy.

Boltis is not for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their information.

When this policy changes, we update the date at the top.
