QUIT YAPPING PTY LTD (ABN 14 695 505 189)
Effective date: 23 February 2026 · Last updated: 7 March 2026
1. Introduction
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Quit Yapping website and progressive web application available at quityapping.com (the "Service"), operated by QUIT YAPPING PTY LTD (ABN 14 695 505 189), a company registered in New South Wales, Australia ("we", "us", "our").
By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
2. The Service
Quit Yapping is an AI-powered tool that generates TL;DR summaries and key points from YouTube videos. You submit a YouTube URL and receive a summary generated by our AI system.
We also provide an Explore feed of pre-summarised content curated from public YouTube channels.
We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue the Service at any time with reasonable notice.
3. Eligibility
You must be at least 13 years of age to use the Service. By using the Service, you confirm that you meet this requirement. If you are under 18, you confirm that you have your parent or guardian's permission.
4. Accounts
4.1 Sign-In
You may use the Service without an account (subject to usage limits) or sign in using Google OAuth. By signing in with Google, you authorise us to access your Google account name, email address, and profile picture as described in our Privacy Policy.
4.2 Your Responsibilities
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and for all activity that occurs under it. You agree to notify us immediately at privacy@quityapping.com if you suspect unauthorised access.
4.3 Account Termination
We may suspend or terminate your account if you violate these Terms. You may delete your account at any time via the settings page.
5. Usage Limits
The Service operates under the following usage tiers:
| Tier | Daily Limit | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Anonymous (not signed in) | 3 lifetime summaries | Tracked via browser storage |
| Free account | 5 summaries per day | 7-day Premium trial on sign-up |
| Premium | Higher daily limit | Subject to a fair-use ceiling of 100 summaries per day to prevent bot abuse |
All tiers are also subject to rate limits (5 requests per minute, 30 per hour) to maintain service availability for all users. These limits may change at any time with reasonable notice.
Free tier users are subject to a daily fair use limit. This limit is set generously and is intended solely to prevent automated abuse rather than to restrict genuine personal use.
6. Premium Access
6.1 Current State
Premium access is currently granted manually or via a 7-day trial on sign-up. Paid subscription billing is not yet active. When billing launches, registered users will be notified by email with full pricing details and at least 14 days' notice before any charges apply.
6.2 Planned Pricing
The Premium subscription is planned at $3.50 USD per month. Pricing is in US dollars. We reserve the right to adjust pricing before billing goes live.
6.3 Cancellation & Refunds
Once billing is active, you may cancel at any time through your account settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. We offer a full refund if requested within 7 days of your first payment. After 7 days, payments are non-refundable except where required by Australian Consumer Law (see Section 11).
7. Future Programs
We intend to introduce a referral program, loyalty discounts for long-term subscribers, and an Ambassador program for students and content creators. None of these programs are currently active. Terms will be published when each program launches.
