Terms of Service

These terms cover your use of the Screen Awesome browser extension and this website (together, "Screen Awesome"), provided by Nitinbhai Viras ("I", "me"). Installing or using the extension means you accept them. If you do not, please uninstall it.

1. Licence to use

You are granted a free, worldwide, non-exclusive, revocable licence to install and use Screen Awesome for personal or commercial purposes. No payment is required and no feature is withheld pending one.

You agree not to:

• Redistribute or sell the extension as your own, whether modified or not
• Remove or obscure attribution, or present Screen Awesome as a product of someone else
• Use it to break the law, or to record people or material you have no right to record
• Attempt to use it to gain access to systems, accounts or data you are not authorised to access

2. Your recordings are yours

I claim no ownership of, licence to, or interest in anything you capture. I could not exercise one if I wanted to: your captures are stored on your own device and the extension has no ability to transmit them. See the Privacy Policy for the detail.

3. Recording responsibly

You are solely responsible for what you record and how you use it. Laws on recording people, calls and meetings differ widely between countries and states, and some require the consent of everyone involved. Screen Awesome is a tool; deciding whether a given recording is lawful and appropriate is your responsibility, not the tool's.

The same applies to confidentiality. If your employer, client or an agreement you are under restricts capturing certain material, that restriction still applies when you use this extension.

4. Your captures live only on your device

This is the practical consequence of the privacy design, and it is the part most likely to cost you something, so it is stated plainly:

• There is no cloud copy, and no backup that I hold or can restore
• Uninstalling the extension, clearing your browser's site data, or removing your Chrome profile will delete every capture that has not been downloaded
• A lost, wiped or broken computer takes your captures with it

Download anything you intend to keep. The library has a bulk download for this purpose. I cannot recover a capture for you under any circumstances.

5. No warranty

Screen Awesome is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. I do not warrant that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or compatible with every configuration of Chrome, operating system or hardware.

In particular, screen and audio capture depend on browser and operating-system behaviour outside my control. A recording can fail, and a failed recording may not be recoverable. For anything you cannot afford to lose, test your setup first and verify the result.

6. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, I will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or exemplary damages, nor for any loss of data, recordings, profits, revenue or goodwill, arising from your use of or inability to use Screen Awesome — including a recording that fails, is corrupted, or is deleted.

Where liability cannot be excluded by law, it is limited to the amount you paid for Screen Awesome, which is nothing.

Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, and if you are a consumer, your statutory rights are unaffected.

7. Third-party services

Screen Awesome is distributed through the Chrome Web Store and runs inside Google Chrome, both governed by Google's own terms. I do not control them, and these terms do not alter your relationship with Google.

8. Changes and availability

Screen Awesome may be updated, changed or discontinued at any time. Features may be added or removed between versions. Should development stop, any copy already installed keeps working for as long as Chrome supports it — nothing in the extension depends on a service of mine remaining online, because there is no such service.

These terms may be revised; the date at the top of this page will change when they are. Continuing to use Screen Awesome after a revision means you accept it.

9. Intellectual property

The Screen Awesome name, icon and the extension's own code and design remain mine. Nothing in these terms transfers them to you. Product names mentioned for comparison belong to their respective owners, and mentioning them implies no affiliation with or endorsement by them.

10. Termination

You may end this agreement at any time by uninstalling the extension. I may end it if you breach these terms, though as there is no account to close, in practice that means you should stop using Screen Awesome.

11. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of India, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. If a provision is found unenforceable, the rest remains in force.
