5. Studio and workspace responsibilities

If you operate a studio or organization workspace on Cut Time, you are responsible for informing your editors that Cut Time is being used to track their editing time. Editors must be aware of and consent to being tracked before you add them to your workspace.

Studios are responsible for ensuring that their use of Cut Time complies with all applicable employment laws and regulations in their jurisdiction, including any requirements around employee monitoring or data collection.

6. Intellectual property

The Cut Time software, design, branding, data visualizations, and all related intellectual property are the exclusive property of Cut Time LLC. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or create derivative works based on any part of the service without our written permission.

Your time tracking data belongs to you. We claim no ownership over the data you generate through your use of the service.

7. Data accuracy

Time tracking data is approximate and based on periodic polling intervals. Cut Time makes no guarantee that recorded times are perfectly precise. Factors such as system performance, network connectivity, and application behavior may affect the accuracy of tracked data. Time tracking data should be used as a reference and not as the sole basis for billing or compensation disputes.

8. Payment

New studio accounts begin with a 30-day free trial. No credit card is required to start the trial. At the end of the trial period, continued access to studio features requires an active paid subscription.

Paid plans are billed monthly. Payments are processed by Lemon Squeezy. You may cancel at any time - your access will continue until the end of the current billing period. We do not offer refunds for partial months.

9. Availability

We aim to keep the service available at all times but make no guarantees. We may update, modify, or discontinue features with reasonable notice.

10. Termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account if you violate these terms, engage in abusive behavior, or use the service in a way that could harm other users or the integrity of the platform. We will make reasonable efforts to notify you before termination unless immediate action is required.

You may delete your account at any time. Upon deletion, your personal data will be removed in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

11. Limitation of liability

Cut Time is provided “as is.” We are not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the service, including but not limited to lost revenue, data loss, or business interruption.
