Clipping Program Terms of Use

Article 1 — Purpose

These terms (the "Clipping Terms") govern the paid clipping program (the "Marketplace") operated by Fadi Blottiaux, a sole trader operating under the trade name "StreamClipping AI" (the "Platform"), accessible at streamclipping.ai/clipping.

The Marketplace connects two types of participants: Advertisers (brands, agencies or creators who fund a clip-based promotion campaign) and Clippers (creators who produce and publish clips and are paid on performance). These terms supplement the Terms of Use, the Terms of Sale and the Privacy Policy. Any participation constitutes full and unreserved acceptance of these terms.

Article 2 — Definitions

• Campaign: an operation funded by an Advertiser, defining a topic, a brief, requirements (required audio, hashtags, platforms, countries) and a budget.
• Pool: the share of the Campaign budget allocated to Clipper compensation, after the Platform's commission.
• CPM: the amount paid per thousand confirmed views (up to €1 / 1000 views).
• Confirmed view: a view of a clip which, measured via the platforms' official APIs (YouTube, TikTok, Instagram), was already counted at least 14 days earlier and still is ("settling period"). More recent views, or views that have since disappeared, are not confirmed.
• Threshold: the minimum number of confirmed views a Clipper must reach on a Campaign to trigger a payout.
• Remainder: the share of the Pool not distributed at the end of the Campaign.

Article 3 — Role of the Platform

The Platform acts as a technical intermediary connecting the parties. It collects the Advertiser's budget, handles clip selection and review, measures confirmed views, then pays out compensation to eligible Clippers. Payments (both collection and payouts) are processed by Stripe (Stripe Payments Europe), a licensed payment services provider; the Platform does not hold the funds itself.

Article 4 — Advertiser terms

• The Advertiser warrants that it holds all rights (image, trademark, music, source content) required to run its Campaign, and indemnifies the Platform against any third-party claim in this respect.
• The budget of an approved Campaign is firm and non-refundableonce payment is made. It covers the Clipper compensation Pool and the Platform's commission. The Advertiser expressly accepts this non-refundable nature when paying for the Campaign.
• The view volumes shown ("view potential") are indicative estimates. They constitute no guarantee of results. The Platform commits to means (mobilizing its network), not to a number of views achieved.
• Any Remainder of the Pool remains the Platform's and gives rise to no refund.

Article 5 — Clipper terms

• The Clipper participates as an independent contractor. No relationship of subordination or employment contract is created. They are solely responsible for their reporting, tax and social-security obligations related to their income.
• The Clipper must connect a verified social account they own, prove ownership of the videos submitted, and follow the Campaign requirements (required audio and its portion, required hashtags, platforms, no prohibited logo/watermark, etc.).
• Each clip is subject to validation (automated and/or human review). A clip that does not meet the requirements may be rejected; its views are not counted.
• The Clipper retains ownership of their clips and grants the Advertiser and the Platform a license to use them for the purposes of the Campaign and its promotion.
• Payout of earnings requires a verified (KYC) payment account via Stripe. Until verification is complete, earnings due remain on hold.

Article 6 — Compensation and payouts

• A Clipper's compensation equals their confirmed views divided by 1000, multiplied by the Campaign CPM, provided the Threshold is reached.
• Compensation is capped by the Pool. If the sum of compensation due exceeds the Pool, it is distributed pro rata to confirmed views (or, where applicable, by performance ranking), within the limit of the Pool.
• Payouts occur at the end of the Campaign, after the view settling period (14 days per publication), by Stripe transfer to the Clipper's account.
• Only views confirmed via the official APIs are paid. The Platform is the sole judge of the views retained, acting in good faith.

Article 7 — Fraud prevention

Any manipulation (artificial views, bots, view purchases, fake accounts, re-uploads, misuse of the required audio or instructions) results in the rejection of the clips concerned, non-payment of the corresponding views, and may lead to exclusion from the program. The Platform runs automated checks (required-audio fingerprint, audibility, logo detection, view-velocity analysis) and human checks.

Article 8 — Liability

The Platform guarantees neither a volume of views, nor revenue, nor the uninterrupted availability of third-party APIs. It cannot be held liable for the moderation decisions of third-party platforms, audience variations, or any indirect damage. Each participant indemnifies the Platform against third-party claims arising from a breach of their own warranties (rights, instructions, legal obligations).

Article 9 — Personal data

The data processing related to the program (account, social connections, view measurements, payment information processed by Stripe) is described in the Privacy Policy.

Article 10 — Termination, amendments, governing law

The Platform may close a Campaign and then calculates the compensation due. It may amend these terms; the applicable version is the one in force at the time of participation. These terms are governed by French law. Failing an amicable resolution, the competent courts are those of the jurisdiction of the Platform's registered office, subject to the mandatory rules applicable to consumers.
