This website
This site sets no cookies and stores nothing on your device. We do not run page analytics. If you ask for early access, we receive what you type into the form by email so a person can reply. We keep it to answer you and do not sell or share it.
B/side itself
Your footage and projects are yours and confidential. We collect information about how the software runs (errors, timings and similar) to fix and improve it; anything in that information that identifies a project is treated as confidential. We look at your material only when you report a problem, and we never use it to train models or in demonstrations without your separate written permission. If you ask B/side to change the voice of a voice-over you recorded, that recording goes to ElevenLabs to make the new take, and the new take is marked as generated. The Early Access Agreement sets this out in full.
Your account
When you sign in, we keep your name and email address from Google, your sign-in sessions, and which browser or app and version you used, so we can help when something goes wrong. We keep your plan and payments, and how much you use of what your plan includes, such as storage, transcript hours and voice-over. Card numbers stay with Stripe; we keep only Stripe's reference to you. We record which version of the Early Access Agreement you accepted and when. If you send a problem report, we keep it, along with where in the app you were.
If you refer people, we keep your referral code and what you have earned. When you sign up, we note how you found us, such as a referral code, the site or campaign that sent you, and the page of this site you started from, to learn which ways of finding us work. We also note the date of a few firsts, such as your first project, first export and first payment, and count downloads and launches of the app by day and version, with no personal details. We do not sell or share any of it.
Posting to YouTube
If you connect a YouTube channel, B/side uses YouTube API Services to post the videos you choose. It asks Google only to upload videos and to read your channel's name. We keep the channel's ID and name, the access Google grants us (sealed so only our server can read it), and for each post its status and the video's YouTube ID. We send YouTube the finished video, its title and description, who can watch it, and whether it is made for children, only when you post. By posting, you agree to the YouTube Terms of Service, and Google handles what it receives under the Google Privacy Policy.
Disconnect the channel in B/side and we delete what we keep about it. You can also remove our access at any time on your Google Account permissions page. Our use of information from Google APIs follows the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements.
Posting to Instagram and TikTok
If you connect an Instagram or TikTok account, B/side posts the videos you choose. It asks each platform only to read your account's basic profile and to publish videos. We keep the account's username or display name and the platform's ID for it. We also keep the access the platform grants us, sealed so only our server can read it, and for each post its ID, and its link when there is one.
We send the platform the finished video, its caption and the choices you make for that post. On Instagram that is whether it also shows on your profile grid. Instagram fetches the video from a private link that stops working after 6 hours. On TikTok it is who can watch, whether comments, duets and stitches are allowed, and whether the post is commercial content. Before you post to TikTok we show your TikTok name, profile picture and posting settings, as TikTok requires. The picture is not stored. We never read your followers, your other posts, your messages or your analytics.
Disconnect the account in B/side and we delete what we keep about it. Removing our access on Instagram or TikTok does the same. The Instagram Privacy Policy and the TikTok Privacy Policy cover what happens once a video is posted there.
Service providers
B/side runs on established hosting, storage and email providers under confidentiality terms. Every one of them, and what each receives, is listed on our subprocessors page.
