Last Updated: December 22, 2025

By using Gorilla, you agree to the following terms:

1. License and Usage Rights

• Gorilla is provided for personal, non-commercial use. You may use it to watch curated YouTube content on any device as permitted by these terms and YouTube's Terms of Service.
• You may not redistribute, sell, modify, or use Gorilla for commercial purposes without express written permission.
• Your use of Gorilla is conditional upon your acceptance and compliance with YouTube's and Google's respective terms of service.

2. YouTube and Third-Party Content

• Gorilla is an independent interface that accesses YouTube's publicly available content through YouTube's official APIs. We do not host, store, or distribute YouTube videos.
• All YouTube video content, metadata, and associated intellectual property remain the sole property of YouTube, Google, and their respective content creators.
• By using Gorilla, you acknowledge that you are accessing YouTube content subject to YouTube's Community Guidelines and Terms of Service.
• Gorilla does not endorse or claim responsibility for the accuracy, legality, or appropriateness of any content accessed through the platform.

3. Intellectual Property

• All Gorilla source code, design, and original content are the property of Gorilla and are protected by copyright law.
• The Gorilla open-source code is provided under its respective license. See our GitHub repository for details.

4. Disclaimers

• We strive to provide a safe, curated experience, but we make no guarantees regarding content safety, accuracy, or suitability for any particular purpose.
• All content is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, either express or implied.
• We reserve the right to modify, remove, or restrict access to features at any time without notice.
• Gorilla is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or in any way associated with YouTube or Google.

5. Limitation of Liability

• Gorilla and its operators shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising from your use of the service.
• We are not responsible for any issues, downtime, or data loss caused by YouTube, Google, or their services.
• Parent or guardian supervision is recommended when children are using any internet-connected device.

6. User Conduct

• You agree to comply with all applicable laws and regulations, including YouTube's Community Guidelines.
• We reserve the right to deny access to anyone who violates these terms or YouTube's terms.

7. Third-Party API Policies and Tracking

• Gorilla uses the YouTube Data API to access and display content. Your use of Gorilla is also subject to Google's Terms of Service.
• Any data transmitted to or through YouTube's APIs is governed by YouTube's and Google's privacy policies, not solely by Gorilla's policy.
• Tracking Clarification: Gorilla contains zero tracking within the app itself or within spawned YouTube wrappers, except for data collected directly by YouTube or Google when you play videos. Google Analytics is used only on our public marketing website (gorilla.tube) and does not track activity within the application or wrappers.
• We do not control YouTube's or Google's services and are not responsible for their availability or performance.

8. Privacy

• By using our service, you agree to our Privacy Policy regarding data collection and usage.
• Please note that YouTube and Google also collect data independently through their services. Review their privacy policies at Google Privacy Policy.

9. Changes to Terms

• We may update these terms from time to time. Continued use of the service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
• If YouTube or Google changes their terms of service, your continued use of Gorilla means you accept those changes as well.
