TesClip Privacy

Understand how TesClip keeps videos and vehicle data on your device, which optional services may process browsing data, and how to exercise your rights.

Privacy first

Local processing only

TesClip processes footage locally and does not upload videos to its servers. Only an export you explicitly publish to YouTube is sent directly from your browser to Google and YouTube.

No account required

You can open, review, and export supported clips without creating an account or linking Tesla credentials.

Useful context without cloud delay

Because the analysis happens locally, you can inspect footage quickly while keeping full control over the original files.

Optional account and community

Optional account and community

Viewing and exporting clips does not require an account. If you sign in, TesClip stores your email address, sign-in session and account settings to provide your account and Supporter access. Community participation additionally stores the profile, pseudonym and interactions you choose to create. Your email address is not displayed to other members.

Google account sign-in

If you choose Google sign-in, your browser sends a short-lived Google ID token to TesClip for verification. TesClip stores your Google account identifier with your existing account email and session so the same account and Supporter purchases remain available. The ID token is not stored. You can still use an email code.

TesClip community

If you explicitly add a YouTube upload to the TesClip feed, TesClip stores its YouTube identifier, public channel metadata, title, description, duration, visibility, and community activity. The video remains hosted by YouTube. Community members can see your YouTube channel identity. Comment pseudonyms, comments, timecodes, reactions, reports, and moderation records are stored by TesClip. Your email address is never displayed. Removing a video permanently deletes its TesClip record and related community activity but does not delete it from YouTube. Mentions, daily deduplicated views, comment revision history and in-app notifications are also stored. If the owner enables a revocable public TesClip link, anyone with it can watch the YouTube video and see the publisher's TesClip pseudonym, public channel metadata and aggregate counters, but not community comments, other profiles or emails. No notification email is sent.

Payments

If you buy Supporter access, Stripe (Web) / Apple (iOS) processes the checkout and payment details. TesClip receives and stores the customer and transaction identifiers, plan and payment status needed to grant access, handle renewals and provide support. TesClip does not receive your full card number. Billing records may be retained where law requires. To provide the account, secure payments and handle disputes, TesClip records successful sign-ins, dates of authenticated access, IP addresses and a general browser/device label for up to one year. Acceptance records contain the conditions version, language, exact text, offer, server timestamp and Stripe references, retained during the paid relationship and up to five years afterwards. Videos, images, GPS, browser storage, passwords and authentication tokens are not part of these records.

Support and error reports

Manual reports use the email address and description you provide; automatic reports can send bounded technical state when an error occurs. Reports may contain clip file metadata, browser and playback state and compact telemetry summaries, but never video or image bytes, GPS coordinates, browser storage, passwords or Google tokens. Reports are stored by TesClip; manual reports are also emailed to the publisher for support.

Privacy & Data Protection (GDPR)

100% Local Processing

All your Tesla videos are processed directly in your browser. No video files are uploaded to our servers.

Data Collection

With your consent, Google Analytics / Microsoft Clarity measures audience and Google AdSense displays one advertisement in the loaded clip library. Those services do not receive video files, filenames, GPS positions, vehicle telemetry, events, or searches. If you separately choose Publish on YouTube, the exported video and selected publication metadata are sent directly to Google and YouTube as described below.

Local Storage

Your interface preferences and a separate metadata cache for each selected TeslaCam folder are stored locally in your browser. They are never uploaded to TesClip.

Your Rights

In accordance with GDPR, you have the right to access, rectify, and delete your data. To exercise these rights, contact us at

Map backgrounds

When you display a map or export a video with a map, your browser requests the selected light, dark, or satellite tiles from OpenStreetMap or Esri. Those providers receive standard connection data and tile coordinates representing the displayed area. TesClip never sends them video files or vehicle telemetry.

Supporter messages

After a completed payment, you may optionally send TesClip a message of up to 10,000 characters. It is linked to your account and Stripe Checkout Session, stored in the TesClip database, and emailed to the publisher so it can be read and answered. You may request its deletion at any time.

For any questions or requests, please contact us: [email protected].

YouTube API Services and user data

How TesClip uses YouTube API Services

TesClip uses the YouTube Data API only when you choose to publish an exported video. The youtube.readonly permission reads the selected channel identifier and name so you can verify the destination. The youtube.upload permission sends the video and the title, description, audience, and visibility you selected to that channel.

Data sharing and purpose

The exported video and the title, description, audience, and visibility you select are sent directly from your browser to Google and YouTube solely to complete the publication you request. Video bytes never pass through TesClip servers. Only if you separately opt in to the TesClip community does TesClip receive the YouTube video identifier and the publication metadata you chose, under the storage and deletion rules below.

Storage and deletion

The Google access token and selected channel data stay only in browser memory during authorization and upload; TesClip revokes and discards the token after publication, cancellation, or failure. If you explicitly add the upload to the TesClip community, TesClip stores the YouTube video identifier and public metadata, revalidates and refreshes them at least every 30 days, and permanently deletes that record and its related community activity as soon as you remove it from TesClip. Other valid deletion requests are completed as soon as possible and within 7 calendar days. Removing it from TesClip does not delete the video from YouTube.

Authorization and revocation

You control the channel, video, metadata, audience, and visibility before publication. You can revoke TesClip access at any time from your Google Account permissions.

TesClip uses YouTube API Services. By using YouTube publishing, you also agree to the YouTube Terms of Service. Google processes data under its Privacy Policy.

Cookies

Optional analytics and advertising services are disabled until you make a choice. You can change or withdraw your consent at any time.

You can configure your browser to refuse cookies or be alerted when a cookie is set.
