Xcut - Terms of Use

Xcut - Terms of Use

Version 2.0 · Effective date: 16 October 2026

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) are a legally binding agreement between you and Ddoz Solutions Private

Limited, a private limited company incorporated in India with its registered office in Kakkanad, Ernakulam,

Kerala, India (“Ddoz Solutions”, “we”, “us”, “our”), for your use of Xcut – Video Editor, its features, content

library, cloud features, updates and any related services (“Xcut” or “the app”).

Please read these Terms carefully. By downloading, installing, opening or using Xcut, you confirm that

you have read, understood and agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy, both available in the app

under Settings and on our website. If you do not agree, do not install or use Xcut and uninstall it.

Important: Section 19 contains a dispute resolution clause, including arbitration and a waiver of class

actions, which affects how disputes are resolved. Sections 15 and 16 limit our liability. Nothing in these

Terms limits rights you have under the mandatory consumer laws of your country.

1. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old, or the higher minimum age required to use online services without

parental consent in your country, to use Xcut. If you are under 18 or under the age of majority where you

live, you may use Xcut only with the involvement and consent of a parent or legal guardian, who accepts

these Terms on your behalf and is responsible for your use.

You confirm that you are legally able to enter into this agreement, that you are not barred from using Xcut

under the laws of India or of your country, and that you are not located in a country subject to

comprehensive sanctions or listed on any government list of prohibited or restricted parties.

2. Your licence to use Xcut

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, personal, worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable,

non-sublicensable and revocable licence to download and use Xcut on devices you own or control, for

creating and editing videos and photos for personal or commercial purposes, in line with these Terms and

the rules of the app store you downloaded it from. Xcut is licensed, not sold, to you. All rights not expressly

granted to you are reserved by us and our licensors.

You must not:

• copy, modify, translate, decompile, disassemble, reverse engineer or create derivative works of the

app, except where the law expressly permits it despite this restriction;

• remove, alter, disable or bypass any security, licensing, subscription, watermark, advertising or

technical protection feature;

• rent, lease, sell, sublicense, distribute or commercially exploit the app or its content library on its own;

• use bots, scripts, scrapers or automated means to access the app, our servers or cloud features, or

overload, attack or interfere with them;

• upload or transmit viruses, malware or harmful code;

3. Your content

You own your content. The videos, photos, audio, text and other material you import into or create with

Xcut (“Your Content”) remain yours. We do not claim ownership of Your Content.

Licence for processing. When you use a feature that processes content on our servers or a partner’s

servers (such as Auto Captions, AI Cut, voice enhancement, background removal, AI effects or

text-to-speech), you grant us and our service providers a limited, worldwide, royalty-free, temporary

licence to host, process and transform the content you select, solely to provide that feature to you. This

licence ends when processing is complete and the content is deleted, as described in our Privacy Policy.

Your responsibility and warranties. You are solely responsible for Your Content and for how you use,

publish and share it. You confirm that you own Your Content or have all rights, licences, consents and

permissions needed to use it with Xcut and to publish it, including rights to music, sound recordings,

images, video clips, fonts, trademarks and logos, and the consent of every identifiable person who

appears in it. You confirm that Your Content and your use of it do not break any law or infringe anyone’s

rights.

No monitoring. Xcut is an editing tool. Your Content is created and stored on your device. We do not

review, monitor, approve, endorse or control Your Content and have no obligation to do so, and we are not

responsible for it. Where we act as an intermediary under the Information Technology Act, 2000, we rely

on the protections available to intermediaries under Section 79 of that Act and similar laws in other

countries.

4. Acceptable use

You must not use Xcut to create, edit, store, publish or share content that:

• is illegal, or promotes, encourages or facilitates illegal activity;

• contains child sexual abuse material, or sexualises, exploits or endangers minors in any way;

• is obscene or pornographic, or shows nudity or sexual content of a person without their consent;

• is a deepfake or other synthetic or manipulated media that impersonates a real person, falsely shows

someone saying or doing something, or misleads people about real events, without clear disclosure, or

that could cause harm;

• harasses, bullies, threatens, stalks, defames, or invades the privacy of anyone;

• promotes violence, terrorism, self-harm, hatred or discrimination against any person or group;

• is fraudulent, deceptive, a scam or spam, or is used for misinformation about elections, health or

emergencies;

• infringes any copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity or other right; or

• threatens the unity, integrity, defence, security or sovereignty of India, friendly relations with foreign

states, or public order, or breaks the laws of the country where you use it.

If we learn that Xcut is being used for prohibited purposes, we may, without notice and without liability,

block or suspend access to the app, cloud features or online content, preserve and disclose information to

law enforcement where required by law, and report illegal content to the appropriate authorities.

5. AI features

Xcut includes features that use artificial intelligence, such as automatic captions, AI cutting, voice

enhancement, background and object removal, AI effects and text-to-speech (“AI Features”).

Xcut – Terms of Use Page 3

• Results may be wrong. AI Features may produce inaccurate, incomplete, offensive or unexpected

results, such as incorrect captions or translations. You must review all AI output before you use or

publish it, and you are solely responsible for doing so.

• No guarantee of originality. AI output may be similar to output generated for other users. We do not

guarantee that AI output is unique, or that it is free of third-party rights, and we do not claim ownership

of AI output generated from Your Content.

• Responsible use. You must not use AI Features to create deepfakes, impersonate others, generate

voices of real people without their consent, or produce content that breaks Section 4.

• Not professional advice. AI output is not legal, medical, financial or any other professional advice.

• Changes. AI Features may rely on third-party providers and may change, be limited or be withdrawn at

any time.

6. Our content library and intellectual property

Xcut, including its software, code, design, user interface, logo, name and trademarks, and the stickers,

GIFs, music, sound effects, fonts, filters, transitions, effects and templates we provide (“Library Content”),

is owned by Ddoz Solutions or our licensors and is protected by copyright, trademark and other intellectual

property laws.

You may use Library Content only as part of videos and photos you create with Xcut, and share or publish

those creations. You may not extract, download separately, resell, redistribute, sublicense or make Library

Content available on its own, use it in templates or asset packs for others, register it as your own

trademark, or use it to train AI models.

Music and third-party content. Some Library Content, including music and GIFs from partners such as

GIPHY, is licensed from third parties and may carry extra terms or attribution requirements, which we

show where they apply. Unless the app clearly states otherwise, music in our library is licensed for

personal, non-commercial use only and may not be cleared for advertising, commercial productions or

monetised content. Content identification systems on platforms such as YouTube, Instagram, Facebook or

TikTok may still flag videos that contain licensed music. We are not responsible for copyright claims,

muted audio, blocked videos, strikes, demonetisation or loss of revenue on third-party platforms.

Feedback. If you send us ideas, suggestions or feedback, you grant us a perpetual, worldwide,

royalty-free right to use them for any purpose without any obligation or payment to you.

7. Third-party platforms, ads and services

Xcut shows ads provided by third parties (including Google AdMob) and works with third-party services

such as Google, GIPHY and social media platforms you share to. These services are governed by their

own terms and privacy policies. We do not control and are not responsible for third-party ads, websites,

products, services or platforms, including their availability, content, accuracy or decisions, such as

removing or restricting videos you upload there. Your dealings with any advertiser or third party are solely

between you and them.

We are not responsible for losses, data charges, or problems caused by your device, operating system,

mobile network, internet connection or app store.

8. Free version, subscriptions and payments

Xcut is free to download and is supported by ads. Some features may require a paid subscription or

one-time purchase (“Premium”). The features included in the free version and in Premium may change

Xcut – Terms of Use Page 4

over time.

• Payment. All payments are processed by Google Play and charged to your Google Play account under

their terms. We do not receive or store your payment card details. Prices are shown in the app before

you buy and may vary by country and include or exclude local taxes.

• Auto-renewal. Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period at the then-current

price unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the period ends.

• Cancelling. You can cancel any time in your Google Play account (Google Play › Payments &

subscriptions). Cancelling stops future renewals; you keep access until the end of the current paid

period. Uninstalling Xcut does not cancel a subscription.

• Free trials and offers. If you do not cancel before a free trial ends, you will be charged. Promotional

offers may be limited to eligible users and may be changed or withdrawn at any time.

• Refunds. Except where required by law, payments are non-refundable and we do not give refunds or

credits for partly used periods. Refund requests are handled by Google Play under its refund policies.

Where the law gives you a right to cancel or a refund (for example, in the EU or UK), that right applies.

• Price changes. We may change prices. We will give advance notice of any increase to an existing

subscription, as required by the app store and applicable law.

• Restoring purchases. Purchases are linked to your Google Play account and can be restored on

another device using the same account.

• Taxes. You are responsible for any taxes, duties or fees that apply to your purchase, except taxes we

are required by law to collect.

9. Your data, backups and device

Your projects and drafts are stored on your device, not on our servers. They can be lost if you uninstall the

app, clear its data, change or reset your device, update your operating system, run out of storage, or if

your device fails. You are solely responsible for backing up Your Content. We are not liable for any

loss, corruption or deletion of projects, drafts, videos, photos or other data, however it happens.

Exporting and editing videos can use significant storage, battery, processing power and mobile data. You

are responsible for your device, its settings and any charges from your mobile network.

10. Copyright and content complaints

We respect intellectual property rights and expect users to do the same. If you believe content made

available through Xcut’s library or services infringes your copyright or other rights, email

mytechnosound@gmail.com with:

• your name, address and contact details;

• a description of the work or right you claim is infringed;

• where the content appears in Xcut, with enough detail for us to find it;

• a statement that you believe in good faith the use is not authorised by the owner, its agent or the law;

and

• a statement, under penalty of perjury where applicable, that the information is accurate and that you are

the owner or authorised to act for the owner, with your physical or electronic signature.

Xcut – Terms of Use Page 5

We will review valid notices promptly and remove or disable access to infringing content where

appropriate, in line with the Information Technology Act, 2000 and the Intermediary Guidelines, the US

Digital Millennium Copyright Act, the EU Digital Services Act and other applicable laws. Sending a false or

misleading notice may make you liable for damages. Grievances are handled by our Grievance Officer

(Section 21).

11. Updates, changes and availability

We may update Xcut at any time, including to fix bugs, add, change, limit or remove features, Library

Content or AI Features, or to meet legal requirements. Some updates may be required to keep using the

app. Features, content and prices may differ by country, and some may not be available where you live.

We may also offer beta or experimental features, which are provided for testing, may not work properly

and may be withdrawn at any time. We do not guarantee that Xcut will always be available, uninterrupted,

secure, error-free or compatible with your device or operating system, and we may suspend or

permanently discontinue Xcut or any part of it at any time. If we discontinue a paid feature during a paid

period, we will offer a pro-rata refund where required by law or the app store’s rules.

12. Security

We use reasonable measures to protect Xcut and the data we handle, but no app or online service is

completely secure. We are not responsible for unauthorised access to your device, viruses or harmful

code on your device, or security breaches caused by events or third parties beyond our reasonable

control, to the extent permitted by law.

13. Suspension and termination

These Terms apply from when you first use Xcut until terminated. You can stop using Xcut at any time by

uninstalling it and cancelling any subscription through your app store.

We may suspend, restrict or terminate your access to Xcut, its cloud features, online content or Premium

features, immediately and without notice or liability, if we reasonably believe you have broken these Terms

or the law, if required by law or a government authority, or to protect users, third parties or our services.

Termination for your breach does not entitle you to a refund except where required by law.

Sections 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, and 14 to 22, and any other terms that by their nature should survive, continue

after termination.

14. Disclaimer of warranties

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, XCUT, ITS FEATURES, AI FEATURES,

LIBRARY CONTENT AND ALL RELATED SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”, WITH

ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR

STATUTORY. WE AND OUR LICENSORS AND SERVICE PROVIDERS DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES,

INCLUDING ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, SATISFACTORY QUALITY, FITNESS FOR A

PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, AND QUIET ENJOYMENT, AND ANY

WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE. WE DO NOT WARRANT

THAT XCUT WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE OR

ERROR-FREE, THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED, THAT RESULTS OR AI OUTPUT WILL BE

ACCURATE OR RELIABLE, OR THAT XCUT IS FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS.

YOU USE XCUT AT YOUR OWN RISK.

15. Limitation of liability

Xcut – Terms of Use Page 6

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL DDOZ SOLUTIONS,

ITS DIRECTORS, SHAREHOLDERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, LICENSORS OR SERVICE PROVIDERS BE

LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE

DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF DATA, PROJECTS, VIDEOS, CONTENT, PROFITS, REVENUE,

BUSINESS, OPPORTUNITY, GOODWILL OR REPUTATION, OR ANY COST OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES,

ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE XCUT,

WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY OR ANY

OTHER THEORY, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR

ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR XCUT IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER

OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR XCUT IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE

TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) INR 1,000 (OR THE EQUIVALENT IN YOUR LOCAL CURRENCY). THESE

LIMITATIONS APPLY EVEN IF ANY REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

Exceptions. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any liability that cannot be excluded or limited

under applicable law, such as liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or

fraudulent misrepresentation, or, for consumers in the EU, UK and other countries with mandatory

consumer protection, for breach of your statutory rights. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions

or limitations, so some of the above may not apply to you.

16. Indemnity

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Ddoz Solutions

and its directors, shareholders, employees, agents, licensors and service providers from and against all

claims, demands, actions, losses, liabilities, damages, fines, penalties, costs and expenses (including

reasonable legal fees) arising out of or relating to: (a) Your Content, including any claim that it infringes or

violates the rights of a third party; (b) your use or misuse of Xcut; (c) your breach of these Terms; or (d)

your breach of any law or the rights of any person. We may take control of the defence of any such claim

at your expense, and you will cooperate with us.

17. Time limit for claims

To the extent permitted by law, any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or Xcut must be brought

within one (1) year after the cause of action arises; otherwise the claim is permanently barred.

18. Changes to these Terms

We may change these Terms from time to time, for example to reflect changes in the law, our services or

our business. The version number and effective date at the top show the latest version. For material

changes, we will give notice in the app or on our website before they take effect. If you keep using Xcut

after the changes take effect, you accept the updated Terms; if you do not agree, you must stop using Xcut

and uninstall it.

19. Governing law and dispute resolution

Governing law. These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or Xcut are governed by

the laws of India, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for

the International Sale of Goods does not apply.

Informal resolution first. Before starting any formal proceeding, you agree to contact us at

mytechnosound@gmail.com with a description of the dispute, and we will both try in good faith to resolve it

within 60 days.

Xcut – Terms of Use Page 7

Arbitration. If the dispute is not resolved within 60 days, it will be finally resolved by arbitration under the

Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 of India, by a sole arbitrator appointed by mutual agreement of the

parties or, failing agreement, in accordance with that Act. The seat and venue of arbitration will be Kochi

(Ernakulam), Kerala, India, and the language will be English. Arbitration may be conducted online where

both parties agree. The award will be final and binding.

Exceptions. Either party may bring an individual claim in a small claims court or consumer forum where it

qualifies, and either party may seek urgent injunctive relief from a court to protect its intellectual property or

confidential information. Subject to arbitration, the courts at Ernakulam, Kerala, India have exclusive

jurisdiction over any court proceedings.

No class actions. To the fullest extent permitted by law, all disputes will be resolved on an individual

basis only, and you waive any right to bring or take part in a class action, class arbitration or representative

proceeding.

Consumers in other countries. If you are a consumer living in the EU, EEA, UK, Switzerland or any other

country whose law gives you the right to bring claims in your local courts or the protection of your local

mandatory consumer law, this Section 19 does not take those rights away, and the arbitration and class

action waiver will apply only to the extent permitted by that law. EU consumers may also use the European

Commission’s online dispute resolution platform.

20. Google Play

Xcut is distributed through Google Play. Your download, purchases and subscriptions are also subject to

Google Play’s terms of service and policies. Google is not a party to these Terms and is not responsible for

Xcut or its content. Ddoz Solutions, not Google, is responsible for Xcut, its support and maintenance, and

for addressing any claims relating to it.

Privacy Policy - X Cut Video Editor

Xcut - Privacy Policy

Version 2.0 · Effective date: 16 October 2026

Xcut - Video Editor (“Xcut”, “the app”) is developed and operated by Ddoz Solutions Private Limited, a private limited company with its registered office in Kakkanad, Ernakulam, Kerala, India (“we”, “us”, “our”). Xcut is available worldwide. This policy explains what information Xcut handles, why, who we share it with, and the rights you have wherever you live.

Ddoz Solutions Private Limited is the data controller (under GDPR and similar laws) and the Data Fiduciary (under India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023) for the personal data described here.

Xcut is built so that your videos stay on your device. We do not ask you to create an account, and we do not sell your personal information. Please read the sections on permissions (Section 1), advertising (Section 2), third-party services (Section 4) and your regional rights (Section 6) carefully.

How you accept this policy. This policy is available at any time in Xcut under Settings › Privacy Policy, on our app store listings and on our website. By installing or using Xcut, you acknowledge that you have read it. Where the law requires separate consent (for example, personalised ads in the EU), we ask for it separately, and you can say no without losing access to the app’s core features. 

If you are under the age of digital consent in your country, please read this policy with a parent or guardian and use Xcut only with their consent. Section 8 explains how we treat children’s information.

1. Information we collect and how we use it

We collect only what a feature needs to work. Every device permission below is optional and requested only when you first use the related feature. If you refuse one, only that feature stops working; the rest of Xcut keeps working. 

Permission / data When we ask What we do with it

Photos, videos and

storage

When you import media for editing

or a collage, or export a project

Lets you pick clips and photos to edit and save

finished videos and photos to your gallery. We do not

upload, alter or delete files you did not choose.

Microphone When you record a voice-over Records audio you create. Nothing is recorded in the

background.

Music and audio files When you add music or sound

from your device

Imports only the tracks you select. If you use them in a

draft, they are kept with that draft on your device.

Notifications When you turn notifications on Sends export-complete alerts, feature updates, in-app

events and occasional offers. You can switch these off

at any time.

Projects and drafts. Unfinished projects, including the media and audio used in them, are saved as drafts

on your device so you can continue later. Drafts stay on your device until you delete them or uninstall the

app.

Cloud features. Some features, such as Auto Captions, AI Cut, Voice Enhance, background and object

removal, AI effects and text-to-speech, may need to send the clip, photo or audio you select to our servers

or a processing partner. We use that content only to perform the feature you asked for, and delete it once

processing is complete. We do not use it to train models or for any other purpose.

Online stickers, GIFs, music and effects. When you browse or download stickers, GIFs, music, sound

effects, fonts, filters or templates, Xcut fetches them from our servers or a partner such as GIPHY. To

deliver them, the server receives your IP address, device and network information, and any search terms

Xcut – Privacy Policy Page 2

you type. We do not link these searches to your identity.

Device and usage data. Xcut and its service partners automatically collect limited technical data: device

model, operating system version, language, approximate country (derived from IP address or device

settings, never precise GPS location), app version, crash logs, an advertising identifier, and how features

are used. This helps us fix bugs, improve the app and show ads.

Support requests. If you email us or send feedback from the app, we receive your email address, your

message, and any screenshots or logs you attach. We use these only to reply and fix the issue.

In-app purchases. If you buy a subscription or premium feature, payment is handled by Google Play. We

receive only a purchase confirmation and order ID, never your card or bank details.

What we do not collect. We do not collect your name, phone number, contacts, precise location,

biometric data or any government ID. Any face or body detection used by effects runs only on your device

and is not stored or sent to us.

2. Advertising, analytics and similar technologies

The free version of Xcut shows ads. Our ad partners may use your device’s advertising identifier and

similar technologies (SDKs, local storage, cookies inside web-based ad views) to decide which ads to

show, limit repeats and measure results.

You control this:

• Android: Settings › Google › Ads › Delete advertising ID (or Opt out of Ads Personalisation on older

versions).

• In the app: where consent is required, Settings › Privacy options lets you review or change your ad

consent choices at any time.

• EU, EEA, UK, Switzerland and other regions that require it: you will see a consent screen before

any personalised ads or tracking start. Withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it.

Turning personalisation off does not remove ads; it makes them less tailored to you. We use analytics and

crash reporting to understand which features are used and why the app crashes. This data is linked to a

random app-instance ID, not to your name.

3. Why we process your information and our legal bases

We use personal data only for the purposes below. Where a law requires a legal basis (such as the GDPR,

UK GDPR or Brazil’s LGPD), we rely on the basis shown.

to provide their service to us and must protect it.

2 With your consent, for example when you share a finished video to another app or social network.

That platform’s own privacy policy then applies.

3 Legal reasons, when required by law, a court order or a lawful request from a government authority, or

to protect the rights and safety of our users or the public.

We update this table when we add or remove a partner.

International transfers. Ddoz Solutions Private Limited is based in India, and our partners operate

servers in several countries, including the United States and the European Union. Your data may therefore

be processed outside your country. Where the law requires it, we rely on recognised safeguards such as

the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses, the UK International Data Transfer

Addendum, or an adequacy decision, together with our partners’ security commitments.

5. Your rights and how to use them

Xcut – Privacy Policy Page 4

Wherever you live, you can ask us to:

• tell you what personal information we hold about you and how we use it;

• give you a copy of it in a portable format;

• correct or update it;

• delete it;

• stop or limit certain processing, including personalised ads, or object to it;

• withdraw any consent you gave, without affecting processing done before.

Doing it yourself. Revoke permissions in your phone’s settings, turn off personalised ads (Section 2), and

delete drafts or uninstall the app to remove locally stored projects.

Deleting data without an account. Because Xcut has no accounts, we cannot link data to your name. To

delete data held by us or our partners, email mytechnosound@gmail.com with the subject “Delete my

data”. If you can, tell us the approximate date you installed Xcut and your device model so we can find

your data. We will delete it, and ask our partners to delete it, within 30 days. You can also reset your

advertising ID in your device settings.

How we respond. We reply within 30 days (or sooner where local law requires), free of charge. We may

need to confirm your request comes from your device. We will not treat you differently for using your rights.

You may appoint an authorised agent or nominee to act for you.

Opt-out signals. Where the law requires, we treat a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal or your device’s

ad-tracking opt-out as a request to stop personalised ads.

6. Additional information for specific regions

India

We process personal data in line with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, the Information

Technology Act, 2000 (including Section 43A) and the Information Technology (Reasonable Security

Practices and Procedures and Sensitive Personal Data or Information) Rules, 2011. You have the right to

a summary of your data and of who we shared it with, to correct, complete or erase it, to nominate a

person to exercise your rights if you die or become unable to, and to raise a grievance with our Grievance

Officer (Section 10). If you are not satisfied with our reply, you may complain to the Data Protection Board

of India. This notice is available in English and, on request, in any language listed in the Eighth Schedule

to the Constitution of India.

European Economic Area, United Kingdom and Switzerland

Under the GDPR, UK GDPR and the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection, you also have the right to data

portability, to object to processing based on legitimate interests, and to complain to your local data

protection authority. Our legal bases are shown in Section 3. Xcut does not make decisions about you

based solely on automated processing that have legal or similarly significant effects. Users in these

regions can contact us directly at mytechnosound@gmail.com. Where the law requires, we will appoint an

EU or UK representative and list their details here.

United States

California (CCPA/CPRA). In the last 12 months we collected these categories of personal information:

identifiers (advertising ID, app-instance ID, IP address), internet or network activity (app usage, ad

interactions), approximate geolocation (country), audio and visual content you choose to process with

cloud features (deleted after processing), and commercial information (purchase records). We do not

Xcut – Privacy Policy Page 5

collect sensitive personal information as defined by the CCPA. We do not sell personal information for

money, but sharing your advertising ID with ad partners for personalised ads may count as “sharing” for

cross-context behavioural advertising. You can opt out by resetting or deleting your advertising ID in your

device settings, through GPC, or by emailing us. We do not knowingly sell or share the personal

information of consumers under 16.

Other US states. If you live in a state with a comprehensive privacy law (such as Virginia, Colorado,

Connecticut, Utah, Texas, Oregon, Montana and others), you have similar rights to access, correct, delete

and port your data, and to opt out of targeted advertising. If we refuse your request, you can appeal by

replying to our decision; if the appeal is refused, you may contact your state Attorney General.

Brazil

Under the LGPD, you have the right to confirmation of processing, access, correction, anonymisation,

portability, deletion, information about sharing, and to withdraw consent. You may also complain to the

ANPD.

Canada

Under PIPEDA and provincial laws, you can access and correct your information and withdraw consent,

subject to legal limits. You may complain to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.

Other countries

If you live in a country with its own data protection law (for example Australia, Japan, South Korea,

Singapore, South Africa, Turkey, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia or Vietnam), you have the rights that

law gives you. Contact us at mytechnosound@gmail.com and we will respond in line with your local law.

7. How long we keep data and how we protect it

Data How long we keep it

Your projects, drafts and media On your device only, until you delete them or uninstall Xcut

Content sent for cloud features Deleted from our servers once processing finishes (normally within 24

hours)

Support emails Up to 2 years after the issue is closed

Analytics and crash data As set by the provider, usually 2 to 14 months

Ad and tracking consent choices Stored on your device until you change them or uninstall Xcut

Purchase records As long as tax and accounting law requires

We use reasonable security practices, including encrypted connections (HTTPS/TLS), access limited to

staff who need it, and partners bound by confidentiality and security terms. No system is perfectly secure,

but if a breach affects your personal data, we will notify you and the relevant authorities within the time the

law requires.

8. Children

Xcut is a general-audience app and is not directed at children. It is meant for users aged 13 and over, or

the higher age of digital consent in your country (for example, up to 16 in some EU countries and 18 in

India). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (in line with the US

Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act) or from younger users without verifiable parental consent where

the law requires it.

Xcut – Privacy Policy Page 6

We do not show personalised ads to, or track the behaviour of, users we know to be under 18 (or the local

age of digital consent). If you believe a child has given us personal information, email us and we will delete

it promptly.

9. Third-party links and services

Xcut may show ads, content from partners such as GIPHY, or options to share your videos to other apps.

Once you leave Xcut or interact with a third-party service, that service’s own privacy policy applies. We are

not responsible for the privacy practices of third parties, and we encourage you to read their policies.
