The Service is available on iOS, Android, macOS, and as a browser extension. Features and functionality may vary between platforms and subscription tiers.

Your account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period at the rate of the selected plan. You can manage and cancel your subscription in your account settings on the applicable app store. Any unused portion of a free trial period, if offered, will be forfeited when you purchase a subscription.

Our Privacy Policy and these Terms of Service govern your use of the Service. All subscription fees are processed through the applicable app store platform (Apple App Store or Google Play Store) or through our third-party payment processor, Stripe, depending on how you access the Service.

Smart Clip reserves the right to change subscription prices at any time. If we change the price of your active subscription, we will provide you with advance notice before the new price takes effect. Your continued use of the paid subscription after a price change constitutes your acceptance of the new pricing.

If you do not agree to a price change, you may cancel your subscription before the new price takes effect. Cancellation will take effect at the end of your current billing period and you will not be charged at the new rate.

Smart Clip accepts payments through the following channels, depending on your platform and how you access the Service:

These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them or their subject matter or formation (including non-contractual disputes or claims) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Spain, without regard to its conflict of law principles.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in these Terms limits or excludes any mandatory consumer protection rights or remedies available to you under the laws of your country or jurisdiction of residence. If you are a consumer resident in the European Union, you will benefit from any mandatory provisions of the law of the country in which you are resident.

In the event of any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service, the parties agree to first attempt to resolve the matter amicably through good-faith negotiation. Either party may initiate this process by providing written notice to the other party describing the dispute in reasonable detail. The parties will have thirty (30) days from delivery of such notice to resolve the dispute informally before either party may commence formal legal proceedings.

If the dispute cannot be resolved through informal negotiation, you agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Barcelona, Spain, for the resolution of any dispute arising under these Terms.

If you are a consumer resident in the European Union, you may also access the European Commission's Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) platform at https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr, which provides an alternative mechanism for resolving disputes relating to online contracts.

If any provision of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void, or unenforceable under applicable law, that provision shall be deemed severed from these Terms to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions of these Terms shall continue in full force and effect. The invalid or unenforceable provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable, while preserving the original intent of the parties to the greatest extent possible.

Smart Clip reserves the right to update or modify these Terms at any time. The date of the most recent revision will always be displayed at the top of this page.
