Creator Rights and Responsible Use
Tik1s is built for convenience, not to override creator ownership. Public availability of a post does not mean the file is free of copyright, licensing, or attribution obligations.
What this tool is for
- Offline viewing of public posts.
- Reference use for notes, analysis, or classroom-style discussion where legally appropriate.
- Creator-approved workflows such as sending a clean file to an editor or collaborator.
What this tool is not for
- Bypassing privacy settings.
- Removing attribution and reposting someone else's work as your own.
- Bulk scraping or mass redistribution.
- Commercial reuse without the necessary rights or permission.
Practical permission test
Before reusing a saved file, ask four questions:
- Did the creator clearly allow reuse?
- Does the clip include music, branding, or third-party material with separate rights?
- Would a reasonable viewer assume the content is still owned by the original creator?
- Could your use harm the creator, confuse attribution, or create a false endorsement?
Handling reports
If you are a creator or rights holder and believe our service is being used abusively, contact contact@tik1s.com with the relevant URL and context. We review abuse and copyright-related reports manually.
Short version: save public files for convenience, but do not assume you now own the underlying content.
