Terms

Using Cuelatch means accepting what follows. It is short because the site does little that needs governing: there is no account to hold, no payment to take and no data of yours to be responsible for.

Using it

You may use Cuelatch for anything, including commercial work, without charge, attribution or permission. There is no licence to accept and no usage limit. You keep every right you already had in the files you process; nothing here claims any interest in them.

What is not permitted is narrow:

• Presenting the site as your own, or reselling access to it.
• Attempting to disrupt the site or the people using it, or using it to process material you have no right to process.

No warranty

Cuelatch is provided as-is and as-available, without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose and uninterrupted availability.

Considerable effort goes into the correctness guarantees — that a shift of zero returns the input byte for byte, that a negative timestamp is never written, that styling and encoding survive — and they are covered by an automated test suite. That is a description of how the software is built, not a promise that it is free of defects. Software has bugs.

Keep your original files. The tool writes a new file rather than modifying the one you opened, so your original is untouched by design, but a backup remains your responsibility and not a courtesy the site can provide.

Liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, Cuelatch Ltd is not liable for any loss or damage arising from use of this site, including lost or corrupted files, lost time, or any indirect or consequential loss. Where liability cannot be excluded by law, it is limited to the amount you have paid to use the site, which is nothing.

Nothing here limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be limited.

Availability

The site may change, move or stop being published at any time, without notice. Because everything runs in your browser, a copy you have already loaded will keep working offline through its service worker cache for as long as your browser retains it.

Third-party names

VLC, Plex, MX Player, MKVToolNix, Subtitle Edit and other products named on this site are referred to descriptively, to explain how they behave. Their trade marks belong to their owners. No affiliation, sponsorship or endorsement is claimed or implied in either direction.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales, and its courts have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising from them.
