Terms of Service

Scriptline, LLC · Last updated: August 1, 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of Scriptline, the Scriptline website and browser-based screenwriting application, together with related software and services (collectively, the "Service") operated by Scriptline, LLC ("Scriptline," "we," "us," or "our"). Please read them carefully.

By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect and use personal information and how to submit a privacy request (privacy@scriptline.app). If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

1.Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old to use Scriptline. If you are 13 or older but under the age of majority in your jurisdiction, you may use the Service only with the consent and supervision of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to these Terms on your behalf. If you are located in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, you must be at least 16 years old. To purchase a paid plan or otherwise enter into a binding contract, you must be at least 18 years old or have reached the age of majority in your jurisdiction, whichever is higher.

If you use the Service on behalf of a company or another legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to accept these Terms on its behalf.

2.Accounts

To use most features you must create an account. You agree to provide accurate information, keep it current, and keep your login credentials secure. You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account. Notify us promptly at support@scriptline.app if you suspect unauthorized use.

3.Plans, Billing & Renewals

Scriptline offers a free plan and one or more paid subscription plans (for example, the Pro plan at the price displayed on our pricing page). Prices, features, and plan limits are described at checkout and may change as described in Section 20.

• Payment processor. Paid subscriptions are billed through Stripe, our third-party payment processor. Stripe collects and processes your payment card details under its own terms and privacy policy; Scriptline does not receive or store full payment card numbers. You authorize us and our processor to charge your selected payment method for all applicable fees.
• Automatic renewal. Paid subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period (monthly or annual, as selected) at the then-current rate, unless you cancel before the renewal date. You may cancel at any time through your account settings, using the same mechanism you used to subscribe, without having to contact support. Where required by law, we will send a renewal reminder before an annual renewal. We will give you at least 30 days' notice by email before any increase in your subscription price takes effect; the increase applies from your next renewal, and you may cancel before then.
• Taxes. Fees are exclusive of taxes unless stated otherwise. You are responsible for any applicable taxes, and we (or our processor) may collect them where required.
• Failed payments. If a charge fails, we may retry, suspend, or downgrade your access until payment is resolved.

4.Cancellation & Refunds

You may cancel a paid subscription at any time from your account settings or billing portal. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period; you retain paid access until then. Except where required by law, fees already paid are non-refundable. Any refund policy we offer is posted on our billing pages. For billing questions, contact us at support@scriptline.app. Where the consumer law of your jurisdiction gives you a statutory right of withdrawal or refund, this section does not limit that right.

5.License to Use Scriptline

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Service for your personal or internal business use of writing and managing screenplays. You may not resell, sublicense, or make the Service available to third parties except as expressly permitted.

6.Your Content

You own your work. Screenplays, notes, and other materials you create or upload ("Your Content") remain yours. We do not claim ownership of Your Content.

You grant Scriptline a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, and process Your Content solely as necessary to operate, secure, back up, improve, and provide the Service to you. This license ends when you delete Your Content or close your account, except that it continues solely as necessary to maintain residual copies in routine backups for up to 30 days or to comply with applicable law.

You are responsible for Your Content and represent that you have the rights necessary to use it and grant the license above. We will not use Your Content to train, fine-tune, or evaluate any artificial-intelligence or machine-learning model, and we will not sell, license, or otherwise make Your Content available to third parties for those purposes, unless you separately provide prior, affirmative, opt-in consent. Your acceptance of these Terms or use of the Service does not constitute consent to use Your Content for those purposes. We may use aggregated or de-identified usage data that does not reveal the substance of Your Content to operate, secure, and improve the Service, and we will not attempt to re-identify that data.

7.Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

• Use the Service for any unlawful purpose or in violation of these Terms;
• Infringe the intellectual property, privacy, or other rights of others;
• Upload malware or attempt to disrupt, overload, or gain unauthorized access to the Service;
• Reverse engineer, scrape, or copy the Service except as permitted by law;
• Resell or exploit the Service without our written permission.

We may investigate and take appropriate action, including suspending or terminating accounts that violate this section.

8.Our Intellectual Property

The Service, including its software, design, text, graphics, logos, and the "Scriptline" name and marks, is owned by Scriptline, LLC or its licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. Except for the rights expressly granted to you, we reserve all rights.

9.Third-Party Services

The Service integrates third-party services (for example, payment processing, hosting, email, and analytics). Your use of those services may be subject to their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for third-party services.

10.Termination

You may stop using the Service and close your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access if you breach these Terms, if required by law, or to protect the Service or other users. Upon termination, your license to use the Service ends. Except where we terminate for a violation of Section 7 (Acceptable Use) or where the law requires otherwise, we will make Your Content available for export for at least 30 days after termination, after which we may delete it in the ordinary course. Sections that by their nature should survive (including ownership, disclaimers, limitation of liability, and governing law) will survive.

11.Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR SECURE. YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR MAINTAINING YOUR OWN COPIES OF YOUR CONTENT. NOTHING IN THIS SECTION OR IN SECTION 12 LIMITS OUR COMMITMENT IN THE PRIVACY POLICY TO NOTIFY YOU, AND ANY APPLICABLE REGULATOR, OF A BREACH AFFECTING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION AS REQUIRED BY LAW.

12.Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SCRIPTLINE, LLC AND ITS OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) USD $100. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

13.Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Scriptline, LLC from claims, damages, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from Your Content, your use of the Service, or your violation of these Terms or applicable law.

14.Claims of Copyright Infringement: Takedown Notices and Counter-Notices

Scriptline respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects its users to do the same. In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA"), Scriptline will respond to valid notices alleging that content available through the Service infringes a copyright.

14.1 Copyright Infringement Notices

If you believe that content available through the Service infringes a copyright that you own or are authorized to enforce, you may submit a written notice to Scriptline's designated copyright agent. The notice must include:

1. Your physical or electronic signature, or that of a person authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner;
2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed or, if the notice covers multiple works, a representative list of those works;
3. Identification of the allegedly infringing material and information reasonably sufficient to allow Scriptline to locate it, including the relevant URL where available;
4. Your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address;
5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
6. A statement that the information in your notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on the copyright owner's behalf.

Send copyright notices to:

Designated Copyright Agent
Copyright Compliance Department
Scriptline, LLC
24624 Interstate 45 N, Suite 200
Spring, Texas 77386
Phone: (281) 731-7824
Email: copyright@scriptline.app

Scriptline may remove or disable access to content identified in a valid notice and may notify the user who provided the affected content.

14.2 Counter-Notices

If you believe that your content was removed or disabled because of a mistake or misidentification, you may submit a written counter-notice to Scriptline's designated copyright agent. The counter-notice must include:

1. Your physical or electronic signature;
2. Identification of the material that was removed or disabled and the location where it appeared before its removal or disablement;
3. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief that the material was removed or disabled because of a mistake or misidentification;
4. Your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address;
5. A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the judicial district in which your address is located or, if your address is outside the United States, the federal judicial district in which Scriptline is located; and
6. A statement that you will accept service of process from the person who submitted the original infringement notice or that person's agent.

After receiving a valid counter-notice, Scriptline may provide a copy to the person who submitted the original notice. Scriptline may restore the affected content between 10 and 14 business days after receiving the counter-notice unless its designated copyright agent first receives notice that the original claimant has filed a court action seeking to prevent the alleged infringement.

14.3 Misrepresentations and Repeat Infringement

Knowingly making a material misrepresentation in a takedown notice or counter-notice may result in liability under applicable law. Scriptline reserves the right, in appropriate circumstances and at its discretion, to suspend or terminate accounts belonging to users who repeatedly infringe copyrights or other intellectual property rights.

15.Free Plans, Trials & Beta Features

We may offer free plans, trial periods, and features identified as beta, preview, or early access. Free and beta features are provided for evaluation only; they may be changed, limited, suspended, or discontinued at any time, and they may be less reliable than generally available features. To the maximum extent permitted by law, free plans, trials, and beta features are provided "as is," without warranty or support commitment, and our total liability relating to them will not exceed USD $100.

16.Modifications to the Service

We are continually improving the Service and may add, change, suspend, or remove features at any time. If we discontinue the Service or permanently remove a material feature of a paid plan, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to give you at least 30 days' notice by email or in-product notice and will refund any prepaid fees covering the period after the change takes effect. We do not guarantee any particular level of availability or uptime unless we have agreed to a separate written service level commitment.

17.Feedback

If you send us suggestions, ideas, or feedback about the Service, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use and incorporate that feedback into the Service without restriction or obligation to you. Feedback is not treated as Your Content or as confidential information. This section does not give us any rights in your screenplays or other work product.

18.Electronic Communications & Notices

You consent to receive communications from us electronically, including by email to the address associated with your account and by notices posted within the Service, and you agree that these communications satisfy any legal requirement that a notice be in writing. It is your responsibility to keep your email address current. Notices to us must be sent to legal@scriptline.app and to the mailing address listed in Section 22.

19.Governing Law & Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be resolved by final and binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules before a single arbitrator, seated in the county where Scriptline maintains its principal place of business or conducted remotely at your election, except that either party may bring an individual claim in small-claims court. You and Scriptline each waive any right to a jury trial and to bring or participate in any class, collective, consolidated, or representative action; disputes may be brought only in an individual capacity. If this waiver is held unenforceable as to a particular claim, that claim will proceed in court, and the remainder of this section will continue to apply. To the extent litigation is permitted, the exclusive venue will be the state or federal courts located in the State of Texas.

20.Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will provide notice (for example, by posting the updated Terms with a new "Last updated" date or by email). Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

21.General

Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets. Any attempted assignment in violation of this section is void.

Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any plan or order terms presented at checkout, are the entire agreement between you and Scriptline regarding the Service and supersede any prior agreements on that subject.

Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held unenforceable, that provision will be limited or severed to the minimum extent necessary and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.

No waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of our right to enforce it later.

No third-party beneficiaries. These Terms do not create any third-party beneficiary rights.

Force majeure. Neither party is liable for any delay or failure to perform, other than payment obligations, caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including acts of God, war, terrorism, labor disputes, internet or hosting provider failures, and government action.

Export and sanctions compliance. You represent that you are not located in, and will not access the Service from, a country or region subject to comprehensive U.S. sanctions, and that you are not listed on any U.S. government restricted-party list.
