This page explains what StreamClipped collects, why, and how long it's kept.

Your account

We store your email address, the name you give, and your password as a salted hash (we can't read it). A cookie keeps you signed in; it isn't used for anything else. If you add a profile picture, we keep a small square copy of it, made in your browser without the photo's hidden data such as its location, until you remove it.

If you sign up or sign in with Twitch or Google, it tells us your email address (and whether it has checked that the address is yours) and your name; signing in with Twitch also connects your Twitch channel. That sign-in is handed back straight away and not kept.

Your channels

If you choose to post clips to YouTube, you connect the YouTube channel to post to and give StreamClipped permission to upload videos to it. We keep that permission, encrypted, only to upload the clips you post (or, if you turn on auto-posting, your new clips) with their title and caption. We don't read, change or delete anything else on your channel. You can disconnect at any time on the Channels page, which removes the permission from your Google account too; Shorts already posted stay on YouTube until you delete them there.

When you connect a channel, Twitch, Google or Kick tells us its ID and name. That's all we ask for: the sign-in is read-only, it's handed back straight away, and we don't keep it. We never post, read your messages or change anything on your account. StreamClipped's use of information from Google APIs follows the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

Your streams and clips

While a connected channel is live, our servers watch the public stream the way a viewer does, and on Twitch they read public chat only to measure how busy it is and to spot !clip commands, and on YouTube they read live chat through YouTube's official API only to spot !clip commands, and on Kick they receive chat through Kick's official chat webhooks only to measure how busy it is and to spot !clip commands (chat messages are not stored). A short rolling recording is kept only to cut clips from, and deleted when the stream ends. To make captions, the clip's speech is turned into text on our own servers. On Pro, unless you turn it off in Clip settings, the last few seconds of your stream's sound are also checked on our servers every few seconds for you saying “clip that”; that sound and its text are thrown away straight after. Finished clips, their thumbnails and captions are stored for up to 7 days (3 days on the free plan) so you can watch and download them, together with the uncut recording behind each clip and the words spoken in it, so you can re-edit the clip. Deleting a clip deletes all of these, and you can delete them sooner. Clips are only shown to you, unless you share one: a shared clip can be watched by anyone with its link until it's deleted or you stop sharing it, and if you also turn on Feature my shared clips, it may appear on our home page with your channel's name.

Emails

We email you when you sign up, when your first clip is ready, when a stream's clips are waiting, now and then with a tip or a reminder if you haven't connected a channel or streamed in a while, when an invite earns you Pro, and when you ask to reset your password. They're sent through Resend, which receives your email address and the email. Every email except password resets has a one-click unsubscribe, and you can turn them off in Clip settings.

Invites

Your dashboard has an invite link. If someone signs up from it, we note who invited them so you both get the reward. When you open an invite link, its code is remembered in your browser and in a first-party cookie for 30 days, only so the sign-up credits whoever invited you.

Billing

Payments are handled by Lemon Squeezy, our reseller, which receives your payment details and email address. We receive your subscription status, renewal date, card brand and last four digits, and receipts, to show them in your dashboard.

Where it's stored

The website, accounts and clips are hosted by Cloudflare. Clips are made on our clip servers (Hetzner) and moved to Cloudflare storage.

This website

No advertising, no third-party analytics and no tracking cookies (the only cookies are the one that keeps you signed in and, after opening an invite link, the invite code). We count page views ourselves, and count each visitor once a day using a one-way code made from your address, your browser and a key that changes every day; it can't be turned back into who you are or matched up from one day to the next, and it's deleted after 40 days. We also note when you last used your dashboard. Fonts load from Google Fonts, and our host keeps standard server logs for security.

Your choices

Disconnect a channel or delete clips from your dashboard at any time. To delete your account and everything in it, email [email protected].
