Privacy Policy

Last updated: 20 October 2026

Overview

ClipAudio is a free, browser-based MP3/WAV cutter and trimmer. You load audio onto a waveform studio; decode, playback, selection, and MP3/WAV export run on your device. This policy explains what happens when you use the published ClipAudio origin (and any future domain for the same product).

In short: processing runs locally in your browser. We do not operate a cloud upload API for your audio files, we do not require accounts, and we do not show ads.

What we process — and what we don’t

We do not receive the audio files you cut. Waveform drawing, marker edits, play selection, MP3/WAV download, beep sample generation, Clear, and privacy-receipt downloads run in your browser. File bytes are not uploaded to ClipAudio servers as part of the tool flow.

We do not ask you to create an account. We do not collect names, email addresses, or payment details through this product — there is no checkout and no paid plan.

We do not sell personal data. We do not use advertising networks on this site.

Local processing

Decoding uses the Web Audio API. MP3 export uses a same-origin LAME build (lamejs); WAV export packs 16-bit PCM — both on your device. Optional preferences — such as language (clipaudio-lang-v1) — may be stored in your browser’s localStorage so they persist between visits on that same browser and device. You can clear them by clearing site data.

Hosting and network logs

The site is a static site hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Like most websites, requesting pages, scripts, styles, and public assets may create standard edge or access logs at the hosting/CDN layer (for example IP address, user agent, URL path, and timestamps). Those logs are used for operating and securing delivery of the site.

We do not use hosting logs to inspect or reconstruct the content of audio files you cut, because those files are not sent to us for processing.

Cookies and local storage

ClipAudio does not rely on third-party advertising cookies. We may use browser localStorage for preferences described above. If Cloudflare or the browser itself sets strictly technical cookies for delivery or security, that is outside the cutter and is not used by us to track your audio content.

Analytics

We do not run third-party analytics (such as Google Analytics or Plausible) on this site at the time of this update. If that ever changes, we will update this policy before enabling it.

Third-party scripts

Processing runs with browser APIs and same-origin scripts bundled with the site (including vendored lamejs for MP3), not loaded from unrelated third-party ad or tracker domains for the core tool.

What you can download

ClipAudio opens MP3/WAV (M4A best-effort) for cutting. You can download trimmed MP3 (128 kbps via local LAME/lamejs) or WAV (PCM). There is no server-side conversion. LAME acknowledgment: lame.sourceforge.net.

Children

ClipAudio is a general-purpose utility. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Because processing is local and we do not require accounts, we do not solicit such information through the product.

International users

The product UI defaults to English. A Chinese language option is available only when you choose it. Selecting a language stores a preference locally; it does not create an account profile on our servers. We do not label dates with regional timezone city names in the UI.

Changes

We may update this policy as the product or hosting setup changes. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do. Continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised policy.

Optional feedback form. If you use the floating Feedback button, we store the email address you enter, your message, which ClipAudio site you came from, the page URL, a basic browser user-agent string, and the time of submission in our database so we can read and respond. Tool file processing still runs locally in your browser and is separate from this form. 中文：若你使用右下角「反馈」按钮，我们会保存你填写的邮箱、反馈内容、来源站点、页面地址、浏览器信息和提交时间，便于回复；工具本身的文件处理仍在本地完成。
