Terms of Service
Last updated: October 5, 2026
These terms apply to the Better Playlists browser extension ("the Extension"), the Better Playlists Support Pack ("the Support Pack") and this website, all provided by Paper Crane Dev ("we", "us"). By installing the Extension or buying the Support Pack, you agree to them.
1. The Extension
The Extension adds playlist tools to YouTube. Its core features are free. We may add, change or remove features in updates. We'll try to keep what you rely on working, but we can't promise any particular feature will always be available.
2. Your YouTube account
The Extension works with the YouTube account you're signed in to, and acts only when you ask it to. Moving, copying, removing, reordering, editing and deleting playlists or videos are real changes to your YouTube account.
- You're responsible for the changes you make. Check before confirming bulk actions; some, like deleting a playlist, can't be undone.
- You must follow YouTube's Terms of Service while using the Extension.
- Don't use the Extension to send automated requests at a volume YouTube wouldn't expect from a person. The Extension paces its own requests to avoid this.
3. Relationship with YouTube and Google
Better Playlists is an independent project. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by YouTube or Google LLC. YouTube™ is a trademark of Google LLC. YouTube can change its website at any time, which may stop some features from working until we release a fix.
4. Support Pack
- What you get: a license key that unlocks the premium themes in the Extension, including themes added in later versions, for as long as we offer the Extension.
- Payment: one-time, no subscription. Purchases are processed by Gumroad or 爱发电 (Afdian) under their own terms.
- Activations: one key can be active on up to 10 browser installs at a time. You can free a slot by deactivating it in a browser you no longer use.
- Personal license: the key is for you. Don't share it publicly, resell it, or try to get around license checks.
- Separate products: Better Playlists and Better Sidebar keys aren't interchangeable.
We may revoke a key that was refunded, charged back, or shared or resold in breach of these terms.
5. Refunds
If the Support Pack isn't for you, email contact@papercranedev.com within 30 days of purchase and we'll refund it, no questions asked. The key stops working once refunded. This doesn't limit any rights you have under consumer law where you live.
6. Acceptable use
Don't reverse-engineer the license system, distribute modified copies that unlock paid features, or use the Extension or this website to break the law or harm others.
7. Privacy
How we handle data is described in our Privacy Policy.
8. No warranty
The Extension is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose. We don't guarantee it will be error-free or uninterrupted, or that it will keep working with every change YouTube makes.
9. Limitation of liability
To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental or consequential damages, or for loss of data, playlists or account access, arising from your use of the Extension. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us for the Support Pack in the 12 months before the claim.
10. Ending use
You can stop using the Extension at any time by uninstalling it. We may stop offering the Extension; if we do, a Support Pack you already bought keeps working in the version you have installed as long as it keeps working with YouTube.
11. Changes
We may update these terms. We'll change the date at the top of this page, and material changes will be noted in the Extension's release notes. Continuing to use the Extension after a change means you accept the updated terms.
