# Privacy policy
Effective 9 October 2026.
The free tools are a static site. They do not ask for an account, and they do not run your media on a server. Cutshed Studio is the exception: generating a video requires a sign-in, and that job runs through our worker. This policy covers both.
## Media you open
When you choose a file, the browser reads it with the File API. Decoding, separation, transcription, translation, image masks, and encoding happen in that tab. The samples are not sent to https://cutshed.com or to any processing API. They live in memory for the job and are released when you pick another file, reset the tool, or leave the page. We do not have a copy.
## What is cached
The vocal model, the background and upscale models, RNNoise, the ONNX Runtime files, and the ffmpeg build are downloaded once and stored with the Cache API, with IndexedDB as a fallback if the cache rejects the write. Whisper and OPUS-MT weights are cached by Transformers.js in the browser cache, and those weights are fetched from the Hugging Face hub. That download is the model, not your media. You can remove all of it by clearing site data for this origin.
## Studio account
If you sign in, we store your email address, an optional name from Google, a session row, and a signed cookie in your browser. The cookie is HttpOnly. Google receives the sign-in if you choose that button. An email link is sent through Resend. We do not receive your card number. Stripe does, and Stripe sends us a payment receipt with the account id and the credit pack.
A generation stores the prompt, the model settings, and the result. When video storage is enabled, the file is kept in our bucket and served back to you from https://cutshed.com . When it is not, we keep the provider’s link and ask you to download within an hour, because that link expires. The credit ledger records purchases, holds, and refunds. Failed and blocked jobs are refunded there automatically.
## What the free tools do not collect
This version does not set analytics cookies, does not embed an ad network, and does not run a contact database. The advertisement boxes on the tool pages are empty placeholders. If ads are added later, this policy will be updated before any ad code is loaded. The contact form only opens your own email program. The message is not posted anywhere by the site.
## Clip feedback
If you keep, trim, export, download, or delete a suggested clip, or send a thumbs up or down, we store that signal plus a few numbers: chat-spike density, loudness, motion, and keyword hits. We do not store the raw video. The numbers re-rank later suggestions. You can ignore the buttons and nothing is sent.
## Logs
A static host such as Cloudflare may keep ordinary request logs: IP address, user agent, and the URL of the page or model file. Those logs are the host’s, not a product account system. They do not contain the contents of your media, because that content is not in the request.
## Contact
Privacy questions: hello@cutshed.com .
Files stay on this device.
Free tools never upload the file you open. Studio is the only paid part of the site, and the only place a prompt is sent to a video model.
