Publishing Assistant — Terms of Service
Last updated: 2026-04-18 · Effective: 2026-04-18 · Publisher: Cola Tools
Welcome to Publishing Assistant ("the App"). These Terms of Service ("Terms") form an agreement between you ("User") and the publisher of the App, Cola Tools, governing your use of the App. By downloading, installing or using the App you confirm that you have read and agreed to these Terms.
1. Description of service
The App is a desktop tool that helps content creators upload videos to platforms via official APIs and generate video metadata (title / description / tags) using AI services that the User brings their own keys for. The App operates no servers; all data is stored on the User's local machine.
2. License to use
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, Cola Tools grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the App on devices you own or control.
3. User responsibilities
- Account compliance: you must use platform accounts (such as YouTube) that you have lawfully obtained and are authorized to operate. The App acts only on your behalf via the platforms' official APIs; you are solely responsible for the content you upload.
- Content compliance: the videos you upload and the metadata you generate must comply with the laws of your jurisdiction and with the community guidelines and terms of service of the target platforms. Cola Tools does not review and bears no responsibility for your content.
- API quotas and costs: use of third-party services such as the YouTube Data API and OpenRouter may be subject to their own quotas and fees, which you are responsible for paying.
- Account security: you must safeguard your operating system account and physical access to your device. Anyone with access to your local user session may decrypt and read the OAuth tokens and API keys stored by the App.
4. Prohibited conduct
You agree not to:
- reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the App, except to the extent expressly permitted by applicable law;
- use the App to upload illegal, infringing, spam or malicious content;
- bypass, circumvent or compromise the security mechanisms of the App, third-party platform APIs, or your operating system;
- abuse third-party platform APIs in an automated manner that risks account suspension or quota exhaustion;
- redistribute the App or derivative works under the Cola Tools name without permission.
5. Third-party services
When you actively initiate the corresponding action, the App calls the following third-party services. Your relationship with those services is governed by their own terms and is independent of Cola Tools:
6. Intellectual property
- The source code, icons and documentation of the App are owned by Cola Tools and licensed under the corresponding open-source / proprietary terms in the repository LICENSE file.
- You retain all rights in the videos you upload through the App. The App makes no claim to and acquires no license over your content.
7. Disclaimer of warranties
The App is provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Cola Tools is not responsible for:
- publishing failures caused by changes to third-party platform APIs, quota limits or content review rejections;
- data loss caused by network interruptions, local device failures, or operating system keychain anomalies;
- consequences arising from inaccurate, inappropriate or infringing content generated by AI models;
- copyright, privacy, defamation or other disputes arising from the content you upload.
8. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Cola Tools' total liability to you (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) is limited to the amount you have paid for the App; if the App is provided free of charge, that amount is zero.
9. Changes and termination
Cola Tools may at any time, in its sole discretion, modify, suspend or terminate development and maintenance of the App, with or without notice. Already-installed local versions of the App will normally continue to function, but Cola Tools does not warrant their compatibility with future versions of third-party platform APIs.
10. Changes to these Terms
If these Terms are materially changed, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and post a notice in the App's "Settings" page. Your continued use of the App constitutes acceptance of the changes.
