dropcast lets you post a single video to several platforms at once, which are YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok. It’s a small personal tool rather than a big service, but using it still comes with a few common-sense terms, and they’re written out below so there are no surprises.
What you’re expected to do
The basic deal is that you only post content you actually own or have the right to share, and that you keep to the rules of whichever platform you’re posting to. Each of them has its own policies around content and copyright, and since the video ends up on their service, those rules apply just as they normally would.
What you shouldn’t do
Please don’t use it to post anything illegal, anything that infringes someone else’s copyright, or anything that breaks a platform’s rules. And don’t try to bend the platform APIs into doing things beyond the uploading the app is meant for.
Connecting your accounts
You connect your accounts through OAuth, which is the standard login each platform provides. You can disconnect any of them whenever you like, and when you do, the app lets go of the tokens tied to that account. If you want the details on what data is involved, the Privacy Policy spells it out.
Availability
The app is offered as is. I do my best to keep it working, but there’s no promise that it will always be up or that everything will go perfectly every time.
Where responsibility sits
As far as the law allows, I’m not on the hook for losses that come out of using the app, like an upload that fails, a post a platform decides to reject, or data that goes missing. It’s a tool, and like any tool things can occasionally go sideways.
Changes down the line
These terms might change over time as the app does. When they do, the date at the top will tell you which version you’re looking at.
