Terms of Service

Welcome to CueCard. By using our application, you agree to these Terms of Service. Please read them carefully.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By downloading, installing, or using CueCard, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use our application.

2. Description of Service

CueCard is a teleprompter you read from while you present, meet or film. It comes in two forms: a desktop app for Mac and Windows, and a mobile app for iPhone and iPad, with Android to follow. No account is required to use either one.

On Mac and Windows, the application provides features including:

• Speaker notes hidden from screen recordings and screen shares
• Creating and displaying custom notes
• Optional syncing of speaker notes from Google Slides
• Adjustable transparency and timing features

On iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch, the application provides features including:

• A teleprompter with adjustable scroll speed, and a movable floating window that stays over the app you are filming in
• Cue cards, readable in the app, on the Lock Screen and on Apple Watch
• Saved scripts and decks, and colored cues
• A countdown and a timer

3. Open Source License

Every CueCard app - desktop and mobile alike - is open source software released under the GNU General Public License, version 3 (GPLv3). You are free to use, copy, modify, and distribute the software, provided that any version you distribute is also licensed under the GPLv3 with its source code available. The full license text is available in our GitHub repository.

4. User Responsibilities

When using CueCard, you agree to:

• Use the application in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations
• Not use the application for any fraudulent, deceptive, or illegal purposes
• Not attempt to reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the application beyond what the open source license permits
• Not use the application to infringe on the rights of others

5. Google Integration

The desktop app can optionally sync speaker notes from Google Slides. Nothing else in CueCard needs Google, and you can use either app without ever touching this feature. When you do use it:

• You must have a valid Google account
• You must authorize CueCard to access your Google Slides
• Your use of Google services is also subject to Google's Terms of Service
• We only request the minimum permissions necessary to provide the sync functionality

6. Intellectual Property

Your privacy is important to us. Please review our Privacy Policy to understand how we collect, use, and protect your information. By using CueCard, you also agree to our Privacy Policy.
