These Terms of Service (these "**Terms**"), as may be amended from time to time, govern the relationship and serve as an agreement between you and **Bytedance Pte. Ltd.** (the "**Company**", "**we**", or "**us**") and set forth the terms and conditions by which you may access and use the Platform and our related services, applications, websites, products and/or content (collectively, the "**Services**"). For purposes of these Terms, "**you**" and "**your**" mean you as the user of the Services.

1111The Platform includes the CapCut mobile software applications ("**CapCut APP**"), software applications deployed on the desktop ("**CapCut Desktop version**"), the CapCut official website ("**CapCut Web version**"), the CapCut Commerce Pro and Pippit web platforms and mobile applications ("**Pippit**"), CapCut services in other forms now existing or hereafter devised, related Software Development Kit ("**SDK**"), and Application Programming Interface ("**API**") for you through third party websites and other software applications to access and use the Platform and the Services. The version of the Platform may differ for factors such as the jurisdiction from which you access the Platform and the device you use. The Services, in full or in part, may not be available in all jurisdictions, for all devices or in all languages. You should obtain, download, and install the appropriate version according to the actual device conditions of your jurisdiction.

Unofficial versions of CapCut obtained via any other platforms or websites are not authorized by us, and we are not responsible for their contents. If you suffer any losses as a result, we shall not be liable for your losses, which you alone will bear.

9393**Service Plans**
9494
9595Depending on the services we provide in your region, it is possible that some of the Services are provided to you free-of-charge ("**Free Services**") while other Services require payment before you can use them, including but not limited to CapCut Standard (where applicable), CapCut Pro and other related Services ("**Premium Services**", collectively with Free Services, "**Service Plans**"). Whether you use Free Services or purchase or subscribe to Premium Services, you must always use those Service Plans in accordance with these Terms and applicable laws.

Unless it is otherwise mandated by applicable laws of your jurisdiction, we reserve the right to change our Service Plans including, by adjusting the features or services available or by adjusting pricing for the Premium Services in any manner and at any time as we may determine in our sole and absolute discretion, which will not, without cause, affect the Services and rights you have purchased and acquired under these Terms before such changes take effect.

Your payment will automatically be charged at the start of each new subscription term for the fees applicable to that term, unless you cancel or change your subscription to the Premium Services before the end of the then-current subscription period applicable to you. If you do not want to continue to be charged on a recurring basis, you must cancel your subscription to the Premium Services through your Apple ID account, Google account and/or CapCut account (as applicable) before the end of the then-current subscription period. You can learn more about how to cancel your subscription of our Services in the FAQ. If so cancelled, you will still have access to the Premium Services until the end of the then-current subscription period and be charged the full subscription fee for such subscription period unless otherwise set forth in the "Supplemental Terms - Jurisdiction Specific" section below or required by applicable law, e.g., if you cancel the subscription for cause. After the cancellation takes effect on the last day of the then-current subscription period, you will be downgraded to the Free Services automatically.

Within the time limit that we notify you of in advance, you should transfer and back up your content (including but not limited to your video drafts, photos, stickers and other materials) stored in the cloud space provided by the Platform before the expiration of such Service Plan, and ensure that the content you store does not exceed the storage capacity that you are entitled to use, so as to avoid the loss of your content and data due to the absence of sufficient cloud space storage capacity.
140140
141141In addition to these Terms, you shall comply with the applicable laws and other restrictions related to the Cloud Space Services (e.g., file type restriction, format restriction, document size limit).

381Procedure to Deliver Counter-Notice: If any user believes any material removed is either not infringing or that such user has the right to post and use such material from the copyright owner, the copyright owner's agent, or pursuant to the law, the user must send a counter-notice containing the following information to the Designated Agent listed below:
382
3831. A physical or electronic signature of the user;
3842. Identification of the material that has been removed and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed;
3853. A statement that the user has a good faith belief that the material was removed as a result of mistake or a misidentification of the material; and
3864. The user's name, address, telephone number, and, if available, e-mail address and a statement that such person or entity consents to the jurisdiction of the Federal Court for the judicial district in which the user's address is located, or if the user's address is located outside the United States, for any judicial district in which we are located, and that such person or entity will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of the alleged infringement.
387
388If a counter-notice is received by the Designated Agent, we will forward a copy of the counter- notice to the original complaining party informing that person that we may restore the removed material following 10 days. The original complaining party will then have 10 days to notify us that he or she has filed legal action relating to the allegedly infringing material. If we do not receive any such notification within 10 days, we may restore the material, at our discretion.
