Please read these Terms of Service ("Terms") carefully before using the SinCap mobile app and website at sinhalacaptions.com (collectively, the "Service"). By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms.
1. About SinCap
SinCap is a personal project operated by Thilina Pathirage, an individual developer based in Sri Lanka. SinCap is not a registered company. For any questions, contact thilinap.me@gmail.com.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 13 years old (or 16 in the EU/UK) to use SinCap. By using the Service, you confirm that you meet this requirement. If you are under 18, you must have parental permission.
3. Your account
- You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and for all activity that occurs under your account.
- You must provide accurate information when signing up and keep it up to date.
- You may not share your account with others or use another person's account without permission.
- You must notify us immediately at thilinap.me@gmail.com if you suspect unauthorised access to your account.
4. Acceptable use
You agree not to use the Service to:
- Upload or process content you do not have the right to use.
- Violate any applicable law or regulation.
- Attempt to reverse-engineer, decompile, or tamper with the Service.
- Use automated means (bots, scrapers) to access or abuse the Service.
- Harass, abuse, or harm other users or third parties.
- Circumvent credit limits or payment mechanisms.
5. Credits and purchases
Credit purchases made on the web can be refunded in full within 14 days of purchase, for any reason and with no exceptions — including if you have already used the credits. See our Refund Policy for how to request one. Purchases made inside the mobile app are refunded by Apple or Google under their own policies.
- New accounts receive a small number of free credits at signup, with no credit card required.
- Additional credits are purchased as one-time top-ups — there are no subscriptions.
- Normal caption generation uses the base credit rate; Fast Premium uses twice the Normal credits.
- On the web, purchases are sold and processed by Paddle.com Market Ltd, our authorized reseller and merchant of record, under Paddle's Buyer Terms. On Android, purchases are processed by Google Play Billing; on iOS, by Apple App Store. Payment is handled entirely by the respective provider.
- When a purchase is refunded, the credits granted by that purchase are removed from your balance.
- Credit balances do not expire and are tied to your account.
- We reserve the right to adjust credit pricing at any time. Existing purchased credits are unaffected.
- If you believe a purchase was charged in error, contact us at thilinap.me@gmail.com and we will investigate.
6. Content you upload
You retain ownership of any videos or audio you submit for processing. By uploading content, you grant SinCap a limited, temporary licence to process that content solely to provide the captioning service. We do not store your media — it is processed transiently and discarded immediately after caption generation.
You are solely responsible for ensuring you have the right to process any content you upload. SinCap accepts no liability for content that infringes third-party rights.
7. Intellectual property
All software, design, and branding of the Service are owned by Thilina Pathirage and protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, or distribute any part of the Service without prior written permission.
8. Service availability
SinCap is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation. We may suspend or discontinue the Service at any time with reasonable notice where possible. We are not liable for any interruptions or loss of access.
9. Disclaimer of warranties
To the maximum extent permitted by law, SinCap is provided without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or accuracy of caption output. Caption quality depends on audio clarity and may not be perfect.
10. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Thilina Pathirage shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Service, including loss of data, loss of credits, or loss of revenue. Our total liability to you for any claim shall not exceed the amount you paid to SinCap in the 12 months preceding the claim.
11. Account termination
You may delete your account at any time from Profile → Delete account in the app. We may suspend or terminate your account if you violate these Terms, with or without prior notice. Upon termination, your right to use the Service ends immediately. Unused credits are forfeited on termination for cause.
12. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated through the app or via email. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.
13. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of Sri Lanka. Any disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Sri Lanka.
