LEGAL
Terms of Use
Effective August 22, 2026
These Terms govern use of the Hidden How website and its TikTok and YouTube creator-upload workflows operated by HY Trading, represented by Hyeonho Yi. By using the service, you agree to these Terms with HY Trading.
The service
Hidden How lets eligible creators connect TikTok or YouTube through official OAuth and transfer a selected original video through the workflow they choose. TikTok transfers arrive as drafts for final publication in TikTok. YouTube uploads begin only after you confirm all settings and explicitly start the upload.
YouTube uploads
By using Hidden How's YouTube features, you also agree to the YouTube Terms of Service. You retain final control over the title, description, visibility, Made for Kids designation, altered or synthetic content disclosure, and subscriber-notification setting. Hidden How will not silently modify those selections.
Until YouTube approves the API project through its compliance audit, YouTube may restrict API uploads to Private regardless of the visibility you select. YouTube may process, reject, restrict, moderate, remove, or change the availability of an upload.
Eligibility and account control
You must be legally able to agree to these Terms and meet TikTok's eligibility and age requirements. TikTok handles sign-in. You are responsible for your TikTok account and devices and may disconnect or revoke authorization at any time.
Your content
You retain ownership of your videos and grant Hidden How a limited, non-exclusive, temporary permission to receive, store, process, and transmit only the video you select for the transfer you request.
You confirm that you own the content or have all necessary rights, and that it complies with law, the applicable platform terms, TikTok's rules, the YouTube Community Guidelines, and the rights of other people.
Acceptable use
You may not upload unlawful, infringing, deceptive, abusive, or harmful content; spam or evade platform limits or moderation; interfere with security; access another person's account; or use repeated automated requests that abuse TikTok or Hidden How. We may limit or suspend abusive activity.
Transfers and platform limits
A successful Hidden How transfer means TikTok received the video through its processing or inbox workflow. It does not guarantee publication. TikTok may reject, delay, moderate, restrict, remove, or change the visibility of content. File, rate, pending-upload, and creator limits may apply and must not be circumvented.
Availability and third-party services
TikTok, Google, and YouTube are separate third-party services with their own terms and policies. Hidden How is independent and is not owned, operated, sponsored, or endorsed by those services. We may update, limit, suspend, or discontinue features for security, legal, or platform reasons.
Disclaimer and liability
To the extent permitted by law, Hidden How is provided “as is” and “as available” without implied warranties. Hidden How is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential losses, loss of reach or revenue, or actions taken by TikTok. Total liability will not exceed amounts paid to Hidden How in the preceding twelve months or CAD $100 if you paid nothing, except where law prohibits this limit.
Termination, changes, and contact
You may stop using Hidden How at any time. We may suspend access for violations, abuse, or security or legal risk. Updated Terms will be posted with a new effective date. Questions for HY Trading, attention Hyeonho Yi, may be sent to ho.yi1114@gmail.com with the subject “Hidden How Terms Question”.
