End-User License Agreement

This End-User License Agreement ("Agreement") is between you and Shankar Strickland ("we", "us"), and governs your use of the Cinebrowser desktop application ("Cinebrowser", the "App"). By installing or using Cinebrowser, you agree to these terms.

1. License grant

We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to install and use Cinebrowser on the number of devices your plan allows. Every license covers two Macs. The trial is limited to 14 days.

2. What you may not do

You agree not to:

• redistribute, resell, rent, lease, or sublicense Cinebrowser;
• reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App beyond what applicable law expressly permits;
• remove or alter any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notices;
• circumvent, disable, or interfere with any license checks or activation mechanisms.

3. Ownership

Cinebrowser, its source code, design, and all related intellectual property remain the property of Shankar Strickland. This Agreement grants you a license to use the App — no ownership or other rights transfer to you except the license expressly granted here.

4. On-device processing

Cinebrowser's AI features — including semantic search and face recognition — run entirely on your device. Your footage and the face data derived from it never leave your machine and are never uploaded to us or anyone else. This on-device design is a core promise of the product.

5. Third-party components

Cinebrowser includes third-party components that are governed by their own licenses:

• FFmpeg, used under the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL). A copy of the LGPL text ships with the App.
• RED's R3D SDK (© RED Digital Cinema), used under RED's own license terms.

Your use of these components is subject to the respective licenses, which take precedence over this Agreement for those components.

6. Updates

We may provide updates, bug fixes, and new versions of Cinebrowser from time to time. Unless an update comes with its own separate terms, it is covered by this Agreement. Plan details and update terms are shown at purchase and on the pricing page.

7. Warranty disclaimer

Cinebrowser is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. We do not warrant that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that it will meet your specific requirements.

8. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, footage, revenue, or profits, arising out of or related to your use of Cinebrowser. Nothing in this Agreement limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.

9. Termination

This license ends automatically if you breach any term of this Agreement. On termination, you must stop using Cinebrowser and remove all copies of the App from your devices. Sections that by their nature should survive termination — such as ownership, warranty disclaimer, and limitation of liability — continue to apply.

10. App-store note

If you obtained Cinebrowser through the Apple App Store or the Microsoft Store, that store's terms of service also apply to your use of the App, and in the event of a conflict those store terms govern for matters they cover. Where Cinebrowser is obtained through the Apple App Store, Apple is a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement and may enforce it against you.

Paid release and activation

Cinebrowser offers one 14-day trial per person, beginning when you activate the trial in the app. The trial needs a confirmed account and does not require a payment card. After the trial, a paid license or valid promotional license is required. Each license covers two Macs. Lifetime licenses include one year of updates; versions released during that year remain usable under the license. Subscriptions renew at the selected interval until cancelled.

Activation requires an internet connection. Paid licenses may work offline for up to seven days between successful checks; trials require a check at least every 24 hours and end after 14 days. A revoked or refunded license stops working by its next successful check or when its offline allowance ends. Account and device management is available on the account page. Discount coupons apply to the first payment unless stated otherwise; a 100% Lifetime coupon issues a license without a card.
