These short terms cover the current public beta of TailVideos. They’re intentionally plain and may tighten as the product matures.
Upload only photos and videos you captured yourself, or that you have the right to share. Don’t upload anything misleading, infringing, unsafe for public display, or unrelated to aircraft.
To publish your work, we may transcode, trim, resize, and normalize it, and pull still frames from videos. We use AI to read the aircraft, tail number, type, and airport so your photos and videos are automatically tagged and searchable.
We keep your original files, and you can delete anything you’ve uploaded at any time. We may decline, unpublish, or remove media that fails a quality or safety check.
You keep ownership of everything you upload. By uploading, you grant TailVideosand the aviation sites we operate a non-exclusive license to host, display, resize, crop, embed, and create derivative versions of your photos and videos — for example thumbnails, previews, and share images — including on the aircraft, registration, and airport pages your uploads relate to.
We credit you on your original photos and videos. Attribution may not carry over to derivative or resized versions (such as thumbnails, montages, or share cards).
The product is still evolving. Features, states, and retention rules may change as we harden the system for long-term use.
