Official Legal Notice • Updated 12 October 2026

Copyright & Takedown

No user files are hosted on ShortTrick, so there is nothing of yours for third parties to take down. This page sets out ownership of our interface, open-source libraries, and how to raise a claim about the site itself.

100% In-BrowserFiles stay on your machine
Zero Tracking CookiesNo ad pixels or marketing data

No User Hosting

Zero User Content Hosted on Servers

This is the single most important fact regarding takedown notices on ShortTrick: we do not host, store, index, cache, or republish user files.

Nearly all utilities operate purely client-side in the visitor’s own web browser. The tiny minority of internet-connected tools (such as live SEO analyzers or currency rates) fetch public resources without staging or persisting them.

No Upload Archive ExistsThere is no user file gallery, no public file archive, and no database of processed media. A DMCA or copyright notice requesting that a user’s file be removed from ShortTrick cannot be acted on because no such file exists on our systems.
Proprietary IP

The Site's Own Content & Brand

The ShortTrick brand name, 3D circular emblem, custom iconography, user interface layout, typography hierarchy, original written tutorials, comparisons, and unique frontend codebase are the intellectual property of Kunal Sharma.

You may not copy, scrape, or republish our original written guides or proprietary software architecture wholesale. You are welcome to quote brief passages or screenshot our tools for review or educational purposes, provided you provide a clickable attribution link to https://shorttrick.co.in.

Open Source

Open-Source Components & Attributions

ShortTrick stands on the shoulders of giants. Our browser-based converters rely on reputable open-source libraries, including PDF.js, JSZip, FFmpeg.wasm, and Lucide Icons.

These libraries remain the intellectual property of their respective creators and are used in accordance with their licenses (MIT, Apache 2.0, BSD, LGPL). Nothing on this website modifies or supersedes those open-source licensing terms.

Processing a document, image, or media file through ShortTrick grants no copyright or commercial license over your material to anyone.
