Table of contents
Access to the service is subject to the express acceptance of these terms when creating an account. If you do not accept these terms, you must not use the service.
The service is offered to natural persons acting as consumers. You represent that you are of legal age and have the legal capacity required to enter into a contract.
The service is not contractually intended for purchases made for professional purposes.
SpacesArchiver is an online service allowing the user, upon request, to generate and temporarily make available an audio file corresponding to a public Space broadcast on X.com.
The service may in particular identify a public Space by means of a URL link or a public X account identifier, solely in order to facilitate the search for the relevant content. This identification feature does not constitute authorization, transfer of rights, or validation by SpacesArchiver of the lawfulness of the request.
Based on a public X account identifier (for example an @handle), the service may automatically identify one or more recent public Spaces that may match the user's search. This feature is intended solely to facilitate the identification of specific public content and does not constitute an indexing, search, or content catalog service.
Any results that may be provided from public data are generated automatically and are not subject to any selection, ranking, or editorial intervention by SpacesArchiver.
SpacesArchiver acts as a technical on-demand processing tool. For each submitted request, it is the user's responsibility to have all rights, authorizations, and legitimate grounds necessary to request the archiving of the relevant Space and to download the corresponding audio file.
Each download period granted to a user is limited to 24 hours from the time the file is made available. The file then becomes inaccessible to that user. Temporary technical copies may remain in active systems and caches for the time required for their purge, without exceeding 48 hours after the last valid delivery.
SpacesArchiver does not constitute a content library and does not retain files beyond this period, except where temporarily required for technical reasons, in the event of early deletion following a valid notice, due to a legal obligation, or pursuant to a preservation request related to a dispute.
Creating an account is required to use certain features of the service.
The service may offer promotional or free access periods under the conditions displayed on the site. Unless otherwise stated, such benefits have no monetary value, are non-transferable, and cannot be exchanged for money.
The service operates using a system of digital credits.
A validly completed capture corresponds to the consumption of one credit.
Ordered credits are added to the user's account immediately after payment validation.
This immediate making available of credits constitutes the beginning of performance of the contract, without, by itself, constituting performance of all future captures that the user may request.
Each capture subsequently triggered by the user constitutes a separate operation performed at the user's request.
A credit is only definitively consumed when a request initiated by the user results in the availability of a downloadable audio file that is not manifestly corrupted.
In the event of a technical failure or anomaly attributable to SpacesArchiver that renders the file unusable, the corresponding credit may be re-credited or may, as appropriate, give rise to a suitable measure to restore conformity.
Unavailability, deletions, restrictions, changes, limitations, or malfunctions originating from X.com, the source Space, the source account, or any third party do not, in themselves, constitute a malfunction attributable to SpacesArchiver.
The applicable packs, credit quantities, and prices are those displayed on the site at the time of the order.
Credits are personal, non-transferable, non-exchangeable for money, and do not constitute electronic money or a financial instrument.
Purchased credits do not expire as long as the service remains active. In the event of the definitive shutdown of the service, users holding unused purchased credits will be informed within a reasonable period and may request reimbursement of unused credits on a pro rata basis according to the price paid. Promotional benefits offered free of charge, having no monetary value, are not refundable.
Payments are processed via Stripe. Available payment methods may vary depending on the country, device, or conditions offered by Stripe.
The Publisher is the seller of the service and collects payment.
Prices are stated in euros. VAT not applicable, article 293 B of the French General Tax Code.
In principle, the consumer has a period of fourteen (14) days from the day after the conclusion of the contract to exercise the right of withdrawal, without having to state any reason.
To exercise this right, the consumer may, before expiry of the applicable period, send the standard withdrawal form included herein or any unambiguous statement expressing the decision to withdraw, to the following address: [email protected]. Where a withdrawal button is available, the consumer can access it after signing in from the "Credits" page, in the "Purchase history" section. That button is then the recommended way to exercise this right. The email address remains available if the button is not offered or for any free-form withdrawal statement.
The refund due in the event of withdrawal shall be made no later than fourteen (14) days from the date on which SpacesArchiver is informed of the decision to withdraw, using the same means of payment as that used for the order, unless the consumer expressly agrees otherwise. Where the order was paid via Stripe, the refund is processed via Stripe to the payment method used for the purchase, subject to the processing times of Stripe, the bank or the relevant payment method.
Where the consumer expressly requests performance of the contract before the end of the withdrawal period, the ordered credits are added to the consumer's account immediately after payment validation, except in the event of a technical incident or security verification.
In the event of withdrawal after this beginning of performance:
At the time of payment, the consumer must tick a separate, unticked box by which the consumer expressly requests the immediate performance of the contract and the activation of credits as soon as payment is validated, and expressly acknowledges the consequences for the right of withdrawal under the conditions set out above. Acceptance of these Terms of Use / Terms of Sale is obtained separately when the account is created.
After payment, Stripe sends or makes available a payment receipt. An invoice may also be provided upon request.
SpacesArchiver retains proof of the express request for early performance, relevant timestamps, the applicable contractual version, and the number of credits ordered for each order.
The consumer has two years from the supply of the digital content or digital service to invoke the legal guarantee of conformity if a lack of conformity appears. For one year from supply, the consumer only has to establish the existence of the lack of conformity, not the date on which it appeared.
The guarantee includes all updates necessary to maintain conformity. It entitles the consumer to have conformity restored without undue delay following the request, free of charge and without major inconvenience.
The consumer may keep the content or service and obtain a price reduction, or terminate the contract and obtain a full refund against giving it up, where the professional refuses to restore conformity, restoration is unjustifiably delayed, entails costs or major inconvenience for the consumer, or the lack persists after an unsuccessful attempt. A sufficiently serious lack allows an immediate price reduction or termination without a prior request to restore conformity. For a minor lack, termination is available only where the contract does not require payment of a price.
Any period of unavailability for restoration of conformity suspends the remaining guarantee period until the content or service is supplied in conformity again. These rights arise from Articles L. 224-25-1 to L. 224-25-31 of the French Consumer Code. The consumer also benefits from the statutory guarantee against hidden defects under Articles 1641 to 1649 of the French Civil Code for two years from discovery of the defect.
The user is solely responsible for the lawfulness of requests, the content processed or downloaded, and the use made of the files obtained. Files are provided for personal use, in compliance with applicable laws.
The user undertakes to comply with applicable laws, third-party rights, privacy, copyright, related rights, voice rights, and the terms of use of the relevant third-party platforms.
The user represents and warrants that, for each submitted request, the user has all rights, authorizations, and legitimate grounds necessary to request the archiving of the relevant Space and to download the corresponding audio file.
In particular, it is prohibited to use the service to:
If you believe that content infringes your rights, in particular under copyright, related rights, privacy, or any other protected right, you may contact us at: [email protected].
To enable prompt processing, any notice must contain at least:
In the event of manifestly unlawful content duly reported, SpacesArchiver may in particular request additional information, remove the file, block access to it and/or suspend an account in the event of abuse.
Any incomplete notice may delay or prevent the processing of the request. Additional information may be requested before any action is taken.
SpacesArchiver provides a technical tool that generates a temporary file at the user's request. This description does not prejudge the legal classification of the service. Following a substantiated notice concerning a manifestly unlawful file, SpacesArchiver acts promptly to disable access.
Upon a reasoned request or a valid notice, a file may be deleted before the automatic technical purge period expires.
SpacesArchiver uses reasonable means to ensure the accessibility of the service, without guaranteeing permanent availability or the complete absence of errors.
The operation of the service may depend on third-party services, in particular X.com, network infrastructure, hosting providers, or external technical service providers. Those dependencies may make an operation temporarily or permanently impossible. They do not deprive the consumer of mandatory rights and, where no usable audio file is supplied, the corresponding credit is not definitively consumed or is restored.
In the event of abuse, fraud, attempted circumvention, manifestly unlawful use, or breach of these terms, SpacesArchiver may suspend or close an account, temporarily or permanently, depending on the seriousness of the facts.
SpacesArchiver shall not be held liable for non-performance or delay in the performance of its obligations where such non-performance or delay results from an event of force majeure within the meaning of article 1218 of the French Civil Code, including in particular: natural disaster, large-scale cyberattack, general internet infrastructure failure, administrative or judicial decision requiring suspension of the service, legislative or regulatory change rendering the service impossible to perform, or permanent interruption of access to the relevant content following a decision of the source third-party platform.
In the event of force majeure, SpacesArchiver will inform users as soon as possible and will take reasonable steps to limit the consequences. If the event of force majeure continues for more than thirty (30) days, users holding unused purchased credits may request reimbursement of such credits under the conditions set out in the refund policy.
Mandatory consumer rights, in particular with regard to the right of withdrawal where applicable, the legal guarantee of conformity, and any other mandatory provision, apply in full and are in no way limited by these terms.
SpacesArchiver is liable under ordinary law for damage attributable to it and causally connected with a breach of its obligations. Nothing in these terms limits liability for personal injury, fraud or gross negligence, breach of an essential obligation, or infringement of mandatory consumer rights.
If SpacesArchiver is subject to a claim, demand, or proceeding directly related:
the user may be required, within the limits permitted by law, to compensate only the direct consequences suffered by SpacesArchiver as a result of the user's own conduct.
This clause neither has the purpose nor the effect of increasing the consumer's liability beyond what the law provides, nor of affecting the consumer's mandatory rights.
These terms may be updated. The version published online is the one applicable on the date of the relevant purchase or use. Subsequent amendments do not apply retroactively to orders already concluded, unless a mandatory legal provision provides otherwise.
In the event of a substantial modification affecting users' rights or obligations, users will be informed before the new version enters into force, in particular by means of a notification upon their next login.
These terms are governed by French law.
For any complaint, you may write to us at: [email protected].
In the event of a dispute that has not been resolved after a prior written complaint to SpacesArchiver, the consumer may use a consumer mediator free of charge.

The consumer may exercise the right of withdrawal by using the form below or any unambiguous statement sent by email to the following address: [email protected].
For the attention of:
SpacesArchiver – 1 Rue Marguerin, 75014 Paris, France
I hereby give notice of my withdrawal from the contract relating to the following credit purchase:
Date:
Signature (only if this form is sent on paper):
Users, third parties and authorities may write to [email protected]. Reports concerning potentially unlawful files or uses are handled under Article 7. This voluntary channel does not prejudge whether SpacesArchiver qualifies as an intermediary service, hosting service or online platform under Regulation (EU) 2022/2065.
This policy explains which personal data are processed in connection with the use of SpacesArchiver and how such data are protected.
The data controller is the publisher of the service, as identified in the "Legal Notice" section.
GDPR contact: [email protected]
Depending on how you use the service, we may process the following categories of data:
Participant data comes from the public Space designated by the user and associated public metadata made available by X.com. The public nature of a Space does not mean that it is free of rights or that every reuse is permitted.
Important: audio processed through the service may contain personal data, including the voice or statements of participants; its use must comply with applicable laws and the rights of third parties.
SpacesArchiver acts as controller for operations whose purposes and means it determines, including collection of the necessary public URL and metadata, temporary generation of the audio file, secure delivery and deletion. This responsibility does not disappear merely because a user requests the operation.
For a participant who is not a service user, processing strictly necessary for temporary generation relies on SpacesArchiver's legitimate interest in providing the requested tool, balanced against the person's rights through short retention, no public release by SpacesArchiver, controlled temporary access and the objection/removal mechanism.
SpacesArchiver performs no transcription, subtitle extraction, voice recognition or authentication, biometric template creation, profiling, semantic analysis, model training, public audio indexing, advertising use or attempt to infer sensitive characteristics from voices or statements.
A Space may incidentally contain special-category data. The service is not designed to target or extract such information. Users must not request a capture mainly intended to collect sensitive data that the person has not manifestly made public or for which no Article 9 GDPR exception applies. SpacesArchiver may refuse or delete a high-risk operation, particularly involving vulnerable people or minors.
The user remains responsible for the lawfulness of the request and any subsequent retention, disclosure or reuse. That responsibility does not transfer SpacesArchiver's own obligations to the user.
This notice for participants is publicly available because SpacesArchiver generally does not hold their individual contact details. A participant, host or rights holder may request access, objection, restriction or erasure at [email protected] by providing the Space URL or identifier, their role and, where possible, the relevant time. Access may be blocked or the file deleted early while a sufficiently precise request is reviewed.
We process your data to:
Your data may be transmitted, to the extent necessary for the performance of their duties, to our technical service providers involved in payment, authentication and account management, hosting, security, fraud and abuse prevention, transactional email delivery, technical audience analytics, as well as the operation, maintenance, and support of the service.
Stripe is used to process payments. Cloudflare is used for security, network delivery, temporary downloads and cookie-free technical audience measurement.
Your data may also be disclosed to administrative, judicial, or public authorities lawfully empowered to receive them, where required by law or by a legally grounded request.
We do not sell your data.
Depending on the operation, a provider may act as processor or as an independent controller for purposes it determines.
Some of our technical service providers may process certain data outside the European Union or the European Economic Area, in particular for hosting, authentication, payment, transactional email delivery, technical audience analytics, or service support.
Where such transfers exist, they are governed in accordance with the GDPR by an appropriate mechanism, such as an adequacy decision of the European Commission or, failing that, standard contractual clauses or any other mechanism recognized as valid.
Additional information on such transfers may be obtained on request at: [email protected].
Account data are retained for the duration of the account's activity. When an erasure request is accepted, they are deleted from active systems without undue delay.
Evidence of acceptance of the terms and acknowledgment of the privacy policy is retained for the duration of the account's activity. When an erasure request is accepted, this data is deleted from active systems. Evidence linked to an order may remain associated with contractual or financial documents retained for the applicable statutory periods.
The Stripe customer profile is deleted when an erasure request is processed where no retention is necessary. Payment, invoicing and accounting evidence subject to a legal obligation remains retained for the applicable periods.
Technical logs and security data are retained for a limited period proportionate to the needs of security, diagnostics, fraud prevention, and service continuity, notably through rotation and archiving mechanisms, unless longer retention is necessary in the event of an incident, fraud, dispute, or legal obligation.
Each download period granted to a user is limited to 24 hours from the time the file is made available. The file then becomes inaccessible to that user. Temporary technical copies may remain in active systems and caches for the time required for their purge, without exceeding 48 hours after the last valid delivery. They may be deleted earlier following a substantiated report or retained separately where required by a legal obligation or a request related to a dispute.
The usage history displayed in the dashboard, metadata associated with Spaces, Space identifiers, Space URLs, and technical events linking an operation to a Space are deleted from active systems no later than twenty-eight (28) days after the relevant request, unless a legal obligation, incident, fraud, dispute, or legally grounded preservation request requires otherwise.
Credit history may be retained beyond twenty-eight (28) days in order to handle a claim, justify a balance, or comply with our contractual, accounting, or legal-defense obligations. This history is then dissociated from the relevant Spaces: identifiers, capture references, and metadata that can identify a Space are deleted.
Credit lots and their movements remain in the active database for as long as they are needed to establish or use the account balance. Once a lot or operation has been exhausted or closed, its detailed evidence is retained under restricted access for five years. A minimal financial projection and the necessary payment, invoicing or refund records are retained for ten years from the close of the relevant financial year. References that link a movement to a Space are dissociated no later than twenty-eight (28) days afterwards.
Withdrawal requests, credit reservations and evidence of their processing are retained under restricted access for five years after closure. Financial records relating to a refund are retained for ten years from the close of the relevant financial year.
Ordinary support exchanges are retained for six months after the request is closed and are then deleted or anonymized, unless longer retention is necessary due to an incident, dispute or legal obligation.
Newsletter subscription data are retained until consent is withdrawn or, in the absence of interaction, for three years from the last contact initiated by the person. Minimal information may then be retained on a suppression list solely to prevent further unwanted messages. Proof of consent is retained for the period necessary to demonstrate compliance with our obligations and handle any dispute.
Exchanges relating to the exercise of rights and the associated minimal technical report are retained separately, under restricted access, for five years from closure of the case and are then deleted. At that time, only strictly necessary elements may be retained for longer where a dispute, investigation or proceeding is still ongoing, or where required by law. They are deleted as soon as that retention is no longer justified.
After an account is deleted, a minimal technical closure marker comprising the pseudonymous account identifier, the case fingerprint, and the closure and expiry dates is retained under restricted access for at least ten years and fourteen days. Its sole purposes are to prevent a late event or a backup restoration from recreating deleted data and, where necessary, to reconcile a payment received after closure. Where such a payment is received, its separate technical evidence is retained until the latest of ten years and fourteen days after that payment, the marker's expiry date, or the applicable accounting retention deadline for payment and refund records. The marker remains in place until then. While processing is unresolved, that evidence may remain linked to the internal account identifier only until the technical acknowledgement confirms reconciliation or refund. The identifier is then removed from the evidence, which retains only a pseudonymous link. Those elements are subsequently deleted unless a legally grounded preservation hold applies.
After deletion from active systems, the affected data and files may remain in encrypted, access-restricted technical backups for a maximum of 14 days. These copies are not accessible through the service, are not reused and expire automatically according to the backup rotation cycle.
SpacesArchiver does not use advertising cookies or advertising audience measurement cookies.
We use Cloudflare Web Analytics, a cookie-free audience measurement solution.
The service may nevertheless use cookies or local storage strictly necessary for its operation and security, for example for session management or authentication. You may configure your browser to limit these mechanisms, at the risk of degrading the operation of the service.
As part of securing sensitive operations, the service may process limited technical signals such as session mechanisms, request metadata, captcha checks, and rate-limit events. These signals are not used for advertising purposes.
We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your data, including access controls, encryption in transit, logging, captcha checks, and rate limits. As no method is infallible, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
In accordance with the GDPR, you have in particular the following rights, under the conditions provided by the applicable regulations:
To exercise your rights: [email protected]
Proof of identity may be requested in the event of reasonable doubt. We generally respond within one month, which may be extended by two months in the event of complexity or a high number of requests.
You may also lodge a complaint with the CNIL.
This policy may be amended. The version published online is the one applicable on the date of use of the relevant service. Subsequent amendments do not apply retroactively to processing already carried out.
In the event of a substantial modification affecting users' rights, users will be informed before the new version enters into force, in particular by means of a notification upon their next login.
SpacesArchiver operates using a system of digital credits. The general rules relating to credits, pricing, and payment are defined in the Terms of Use / Terms of Sale.
Credits corresponding to captures validly completed and resulting in the provision of a usable audio file are considered used.
Credits corresponding to an operation that failed due to a technical incident attributable to SpacesArchiver give rise to a re-credit or, as appropriate, to another suitable measure to restore conformity, in accordance with the rules set out in the "Credit operation – pricing" section.
In the event of a valid exercise of the right of withdrawal within the legal period, the consumer may obtain reimbursement of sums corresponding to credits not yet used, calculated on a pro rata basis according to the number of credits ordered and the total price paid. No refund is due for credits already validly used. If all credits have been used before the withdrawal request, no refund may be granted.
Where a withdrawal request is recorded from the purchase history, the credits still available and concerned by the purchase are deducted immediately from the user account. The refundable amount is then determined according to the credits so deducted, on a pro rata basis according to the price paid. Following this traceable reservation of refundable credits, the corresponding refund is automatically initiated through Stripe. A technical incident, a Stripe status that is still pending or a reconciliation discrepancy triggers a review without removing or reducing the consumer's rights.
Outside the legal right of withdrawal and the consumer's mandatory rights, any exceptional commercial measure relating to unused credits remains at SpacesArchiver's discretion.
Where no usable audio file is supplied, including because of unavailability, deletion, restriction or limitation affecting X.com or the source Space, the corresponding credit is not definitively consumed or is restored. This does not limit the legal guarantee of conformity, the right of withdrawal where applicable, or any other mandatory consumer right.
The withdrawal request may be made from the "Credits" page, in the "Purchase history" section, where the withdrawal button is available. The consumer may also, in all cases, exercise this right by sending any unambiguous statement to: [email protected]
To identify the purchase, it is sufficient to specify:
Where a valid withdrawal gives rise to a refund, it is initiated through Stripe to the original payment method. Its status is tracked until confirmation by Stripe. The time needed for the funds to become available then depends on the bank or payment method used. A processing anomaly is reviewed and does not constitute a refusal of a refund that is due.
In the event of the definitive shutdown of SpacesArchiver, users holding unused purchased credits will be notified by email at least thirty (30) days before the effective shutdown date. During this period, they may request reimbursement of their unused purchased credits at [email protected], calculated on a pro rata basis according to the initial purchase price. Promotional benefits offered free of charge, having no monetary value, are not refundable.
