Legal

Terms of Use

Effective date: August 12, 2026 · SkipItTech, Inc.

These Terms are current as of the date above and are under review by our counsel. We will post an updated version here if that review results in changes.

1. Agreement to these Terms

These Terms of Use ("Terms") are a legal agreement between you and SkipItTech, Inc. ("Skipit," "we," "us," or "our"). They govern your use of the Skipit browser extension, the Skipit website, and related services (together, the "Service").

By downloading, installing, accessing, or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

Your use of the Service is also subject to our Privacy Policy, available at https://www.skipit.tech/privacy.html, which explains how we collect, use, and disclose information.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old, or the minimum age required in your location, whichever is higher.
If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may use Skipit only with the consent and supervision of a parent or legal guardian, and that parent or guardian agrees to be bound by these Terms.
Skipit is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 except as permitted by law.

3. What Skipit is

Skipit is a browser extension and related web service that identifies potentially distressing scenes in video content you have chosen to watch, and may help you navigate past those scenes or read a short summary of what happens in them.

Skipit is an independent aid for personal viewing comfort. Skipit does not provide, redistribute, or grant access to streaming content. You need your own access to any service whose content you watch.

Skipit does not bypass or circumvent digital rights management (DRM), access controls, geographic restrictions, subscription requirements, or other technological protection measures.

Skipit works by reading playback position and timing information from the video player in your browser, and by using standard player controls such as play, pause, and moving the playback position. Skipit displays its own interface on top of the page.

4. Accounts

Some features require an account.

You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information when you create an account, and to keep that information updated.
You are responsible for safeguarding your credentials and for activity that occurs under your account.
If you suspect unauthorized access to your account, notify us promptly at info@skipit.tech.

Third-party login. Skipit currently offers account sign-in through Google. When you sign in this way, you authorize us to receive certain account information from that provider, and your use of that provider's service remains governed by that provider's own terms and privacy policy. We are not responsible for the practices of third-party login providers.

5. License

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable, non-commercial license to use the Service for your own personal viewing.

We reserve all rights not expressly granted.

6. Acceptable use

You agree not to do any of the following:

Use the Service for any unlawful purpose, or in a way that violates the terms of any third party, including the terms of any streaming platform.
Circumvent DRM, access controls, geographic restrictions, or subscription requirements.
Probe, scan, interfere with, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to our systems, networks, or data.
Use automated means to scrape, harvest, index, or extract data from the Service without our prior written permission.
Resell, sublicense, or commercially exploit the Service without our prior written permission.
Violate the intellectual property, privacy, publicity, or other rights of any person.
Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, copy, modify, or create derivative works from the Service, except where applicable law expressly permits it despite this restriction.

7. Payments and future paid plans

Skipit is free to use as of the effective date above.

Creating an account or signing up for updates does not guarantee availability, features, pricing, or timing of any future offering.

Before we charge you for any paid plan, subscription, pre-order, trial that converts to a paid plan, or automatic renewal, we will present the applicable pricing, billing frequency, renewal terms, cancellation terms, and refund terms to you before checkout, and you will have the opportunity to review them.

Skipit has accepted pre-orders for future paid plans. Because Skipit is free and paid plans have not started, a pre-order customer's subscription period has not begun. If you pre-ordered and would rather have your money back, email us at info@skipit.tech and we will take care of it.

8. Intellectual property

The Service, including its software, design, text, graphics, and the Skipit name and logo, is owned by SkipItTech, Inc. and is protected by intellectual property laws. These Terms do not transfer any ownership to you.

9. Third parties and no affiliation

Skipit may work alongside third-party streaming platforms. Skipit is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any of them, including Netflix, YouTube, Disney+, and Paramount+.

All third-party names, logos, and trademarks belong to their respective owners. Your use of any streaming service remains governed by that service's own terms.

10. Changes to the Service

We may change, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service at any time. We will make reasonable efforts to give notice of material changes.

11. Disclaimers

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available."

Scene detection is automated and may be incomplete, inaccurate, or inconsistent. It may miss content that affects you, and it may flag content you did not expect.
You should use your own judgment about whether and how to view any content.
Skipit is designed to support personal viewing preferences and comfort.
Skipit is not a medical device. Skipit does not provide medical, psychological, clinical, diagnostic, treatment, or crisis advice.
Skipit is not an emergency service. If you are in immediate danger or need urgent support, contact local emergency services or an appropriate crisis resource.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement, and any warranty that the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free.

Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes rights or remedies that cannot be limited or excluded under applicable law.

12. Accessibility and compatibility

Skipit is designed with trauma-informed and accessibility-minded principles, and we work to improve accessibility as the product develops.

Skipit may include features or design considerations such as reduced-motion preferences, color contrast, and keyboard navigation, where available. Skipit is early software, and available features, compatibility, and detection performance may vary and may change over time. Accessibility and compatibility can also depend on your browser, device, operating system, assistive technology, and the streaming platform you are using, which are outside our control.

We do not claim conformance with any particular accessibility standard at this time. We are continuing to test and improve, and we welcome reports of barriers you encounter.

If you run into an accessibility problem with Skipit, contact us at info@skipit.tech and we will look into it and respond.

13. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any lost profits, lost revenue, lost data, lost goodwill, or lost business opportunity, arising out of or relating to your use of the Service.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the Service will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the event giving rise to the claim, or fifty United States dollars (USD $50).

Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes rights or remedies that cannot be limited or excluded under applicable law.

14. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless SkipItTech, Inc. and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from any claims, losses, damages, liabilities, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of or relating to:

your violation of these Terms,
your misuse of the Service, or
your violation of any law or the rights of any third party.

We may assume exclusive control of the defense of any matter subject to indemnification by you, and you agree to cooperate with us in that defense.

15. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service if you violate these Terms, if we are required to do so by law, if we have security concerns, or if we discontinue the Service.

You may stop using the Service at any time.

Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and the governing law and venue provisions.

16. Feedback

If you send us suggestions, ideas, or other feedback about the Service ("Feedback"), you grant us a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, sublicensable right to use that Feedback for any purpose, without obligation to you.

You retain ownership of any pre-existing materials you own that are included in Feedback.

17. User content

Skipit includes a Mark a Scene feature that lets you submit scene reports. A submission may include a title, timestamps, one or more categories, and an optional note ("User Content"). After review, we may publish scene data derived from submissions so that it is available to other Skipit users.

You retain ownership of your User Content.
You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable license to host, store, process, reproduce, modify, adapt, and display your User Content in order to operate, improve, secure, and provide the Service.
You represent that you have the rights necessary to submit your User Content, and that it does not violate any law or the rights of any third party.
We may remove, decline to publish, or stop publishing any submission at our discretion.

18. Changes to these Terms

We may revise these Terms. When we do, we will post the revised Terms with an updated effective date.

If the changes are material, we will communicate them through the Service, by email to registered users, or by another reasonable method.

Your continued use of the Service after the effective date of revised Terms means you accept them, subject to applicable law.

19. Governing law and venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. You agree to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in Massachusetts.

This section does not limit or exclude any rights or remedies that cannot be limited or excluded under applicable law, including any right you may have to bring a claim in your local courts.

20. General

Electronic communications and notices. You agree that we may provide notices and other communications to you electronically, including by email to the address associated with your account or by posting within the Service. You agree that electronic communications satisfy any legal requirement that a communication be in writing.

Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your rights under them. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, financing, acquisition, corporate restructuring, or sale of assets.

Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held unenforceable, that provision will be limited or removed to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will stay in full force.

No waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of our right to enforce it later.

Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service, and replace any prior agreements on that subject.
