Terms of Service

1. What SoundSlap Does

SoundSlap lets Twitch viewers select broadcaster-approved sound effects from a Twitch Extension panel. Sounds may be triggered through Twitch Bits, through a Twitch Channel Points reward, or through broadcaster dashboard tools. The broadcaster controls which sounds are available, their prices, cooldowns, moderation settings, and whether SoundSlap is active.

2. Eligibility and Twitch Terms

You must comply with Twitch's own terms, policies, community guidelines, Bits rules, and Channel Points rules when using SoundSlap. Twitch accounts, Bits, Channel Points, Extension identity, and Twitch transactions are provided by Twitch and remain subject to Twitch's terms.

3. Broadcaster and Uploaded Content

Broadcasters and authorized dashboard users are responsible for the sounds, selected GIFs, names, categories, prices, and settings they upload or configure. By uploading or configuring content in SoundSlap, you confirm that you have the rights needed to host, display, transmit, and play that content through SoundSlap and Twitch. Selected GIFs may appear as panel thumbnails and, when enabled by the broadcaster, in the OBS overlay.

You grant SoundSlap a limited license to store, process, stream, and play uploaded sounds, and to display selected GIF thumbnails only as needed to operate SoundSlap, provide previews, run the Twitch Extension panel, and support optional overlay display during sound alerts.

4. Copyright, User-Generated Content, and Takedowns

SoundSlap hosts and processes user-uploaded or user-configured audio and related metadata at the direction of broadcasters and authorized dashboard users. SoundSlap does not claim ownership of uploaded sounds, and SoundSlap does not authorize users to upload, distribute, stream, perform, or display music, clips, sound effects, recordings, names, images, GIFs, or other content they do not own or have permission to use.

By uploading, selecting, configuring, enabling, pricing, or making any sound or related content available through SoundSlap, you represent and warrant that: (a) you own the content or have all licenses, rights, permissions, clearances, and consents needed for SoundSlap, Twitch, OBS overlays, stream playback, panel previews, and related use; (b) the content does not infringe, misappropriate, or violate anyone else's copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, contract, or other rights; and (c) your use of the content complies with these Terms, Twitch's rules, and applicable law.

SoundSlap may remove, disable, hide, block, or restrict access to any uploaded sound, GIF, metadata, account, or feature at any time if SoundSlap believes it may violate these Terms, Twitch rules, applicable law, a third-party right, or the safety and reliability of the service. SoundSlap may also disable or terminate accounts or access for users who repeatedly upload or configure infringing content.

If you believe content available through SoundSlap infringes your copyright, send a written copyright notice to SoundSlap's designated copyright contact or the official contact method made available on soundslap.stream or in the Twitch Extension listing. Your notice should include enough information to identify the copyrighted work, the allegedly infringing SoundSlap content, where it appears, your contact information, a good-faith statement that the use is not authorized, a statement that the information is accurate and that you are authorized to act for the copyright owner, and your physical or electronic signature. SoundSlap may remove or disable access to the reported content and may forward the notice to the user who uploaded or configured it.

Users whose content is removed may submit a counter-notice if they believe the removal was mistaken or misidentified. Counter-notices should include the removed content, the location where it appeared, contact information, consent to appropriate legal jurisdiction, a statement under penalty of perjury that the content was removed or disabled because of mistake or misidentification, and a physical or electronic signature. SoundSlap may restore content where permitted by law.

SoundSlap's library and alert system may include user-generated content. Broadcasters, managers, and viewers use that content at their own risk. You are solely responsible for the content you upload, select, configure, trigger, stream, or make available through SoundSlap.

5. Viewer Use and Restrictions

Viewers may use SoundSlap only through the Twitch Extension panel and related Twitch features. You agree not to abuse, scrape, interfere with, reverse engineer, bypass cooldowns or pricing, submit fraudulent transactions, overload the service, or use SoundSlap to harass others or violate Twitch rules.

6. Bits, Channel Points, and Refunds

Bits purchases and Extension Bits transactions are processed by Twitch. SoundSlap validates transaction metadata and queues the selected sound, but Twitch controls the Bits purchase flow and any Twitch-side payment terms. Channel Points have no cash value and are handled through Twitch Custom Rewards and EventSub.

SoundSlap does not guarantee that a sound will always play after a transaction or redemption. Playback can fail or be delayed because of cooldowns, moderation, overlay availability, server issues, Twitch issues, broadcaster settings, or technical limits.

7. Moderation and Availability

The broadcaster may pause SoundSlap, remove sounds, change prices, block viewers, void or restore queue items, adjust cooldowns, or disable features at any time. SoundSlap may be updated, interrupted, suspended, or discontinued without notice.

8. Privacy

The SoundSlap Privacy Policy explains what data SoundSlap collects and how it is used. You can review it at /api/legal/privacy.

9. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless SoundSlap and its operator from and against claims, demands, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising from or related to: (a) content you upload, select, configure, trigger, stream, or make available through SoundSlap; (b) your breach of these Terms or your representations and warranties; (c) your violation of Twitch rules or applicable law; or (d) your infringement or alleged infringement of any third-party rights.

10. No Warranties

SoundSlap is provided "as is" and "as available." To the maximum extent permitted by law, SoundSlap makes no warranties about uninterrupted operation, error-free playback, availability, revenue, compatibility, moderation outcomes, or fitness for a particular purpose.

11. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, SoundSlap and its operator will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive, or lost-profit damages arising from use of SoundSlap, including failed playback, unavailable sounds, Twitch outages, moderation decisions, or uploaded content.

12. Changes

These Terms may be updated as SoundSlap changes. The latest version will be posted at this URL with an updated effective date. Continued use of SoundSlap after changes means you accept the updated Terms.
