1. 100% Client-Side Processing Commitment
SubRefine operates strictly as a client-side web utility. Unlike traditional file conversion servers, all subtitle and media text processing occurs exclusively within your local web browser's sandbox memory. Your source files, video timelines, transcripts, and personal data are never transmitted, uploaded, stored, or logged on any external cloud infrastructure or servers.
2. Information We Do Not Collect
Because our processing engine runs locally via secure Web-APIs, SubRefine does not collect, track, or maintain any of the following:
- The contents of your WebVTT (.vtt) or SubRip (.srt) subtitle scripts.
- Personally Identifiable Information (PII) such as email addresses or names.
- Corporate meeting logs, educational webinar materials, or cinematic project names.
3. Google AdSense & Third-Party Advertising
We use third-party advertising companies (such as Google AdSense) to serve ads when you visit our website. These companies may use cookies and web beacons to collect non-personally identifiable information (such as your IP address, browser type, or your visits to this and other websites) in order to provide personalized advertisements about goods and services of high value to you.
4. CCPA & GDPR Compliance
Our localized data framework is fully compliant with the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). Users maintain absolute sovereignty over their uploaded media assets since no data persistence ever takes place on our network edge.
5. Terms of Service & Disclaimer
By utilizing SubRefine, you agree that this platform is provided on an "as-is" basis without any warranties. We are not liable for any rendering glitches, subtitle timeline offsets, or data discrepancies caused during the local conversion workflow. Your continued use of the website constitutes acceptance of these terms.
