1. Purpose
These terms govern the use of the PADCRAFT website, published by Padcraft, a French sole proprietorship (micro-entreprise / auto-entrepreneur), SIRET 108 445 727 00010, registered address: Bernin, 38190, France, hereinafter "PADCRAFT", and the sale of its products and services: controller overlays for live streaming, custom controller designs, and the partner program allowing approved partners to publish and sell designs on the marketplace.
2. Acceptance of the terms
Using the site and its services implies full acceptance of these terms. Users who disagree with them are asked not to use the site.
3. User account
Creating an account requires a valid email address and a password. Users are responsible for keeping their credentials confidential and for all activity carried out from their account. PADCRAFT reserves the right to suspend an account in the event of fraudulent use or breach of these terms.
4. Description of the services
PADCRAFT provides:
- A configurator to customize a controller overlay (colors, design) intended for use in streaming software (OBS or equivalent);
- A catalog of community-made designs available for purchase;
- A partner program allowing approved partners to publish and sell their own designs, subject to a commission charged by PADCRAFT on each sale.
5. Orders and payment
Payments are processed by Stripe, a third-party payment provider, via a secure Stripe-hosted checkout page. PADCRAFT never has access to full card numbers. Accepted payment methods depend on what Stripe enables (typically Visa, Mastercard, and other major cards). All prices are displayed in US dollars ($). Payment is charged at the time of purchase; a confirmation email is sent automatically once payment is confirmed.
PADCRAFT sells one-time purchases only and does not offer subscriptions. The configurator and three realistic controllers are free to use. A static shop design costs $4.99, an animated shop design costs $7.99, and publishing a design of the user's own costs $4.99 per overlay link, or $7.99 if the design is animated; see pricing.html for the current, authoritative rates. Prices may change over time, and a change never applies to a purchase already made.
Each one-time overlay-link purchase can be used on up to two devices and includes up to five changes to the design attached to that same link, or up to ten when the link was sold at the animated design price. A change is counted only when the user explicitly applies it from the configurator; editing or previewing the design does not consume a change. Once all included changes have been applied, the existing link continues to work with its last published design, but publishing another version requires the purchase of a new overlay link. A purchased overlay link may be disabled in the limited circumstances set out in Section 9, which also states when a refund or a replacement is offered.
6. Right of withdrawal: digital content
In accordance with the regulations applicable to digital content not supplied on a physical medium, the 14-day right of withdrawal may not apply once the download or access to the content has begun with the consumer's express consent, whereby the consumer acknowledges losing that right.
7. Partner program and commissions
PADCRAFT stopped selling subscriptions on 19 October 2026. A subscription started before that date keeps the terms it was sold under until it ends or is cancelled, and it can be cancelled at any time by contacting support: access continues until the end of the period already paid for, and no further payment is taken.
Publishing and selling designs on the marketplace is reserved for approved partners. Joining the partner program is free and subject to approval by PADCRAFT; the requirements are described on the partners page. PADCRAFT charges a commission of 15% on each sale made through a creator's published designs; the remaining 85% is credited to the creator's balance. This rate may be changed by PADCRAFT at any time; creators will be notified in advance in accordance with Section 12 below, and any change applies only to sales made after the new rate takes effect, never retroactively.
Partner and Organization accounts may receive a creator code under a separate commercial arrangement. The commission percentage applicable to that code is the percentage displayed in the account's Creator code area at the time of each completed attributed sale. PADCRAFT may change that percentage at any time to reflect the applicable partnership arrangement. Any change applies only to sales completed after the new percentage takes effect and never reduces commission already credited. PADCRAFT will provide reasonable prior notice of a material reduction whenever practicable.
Creators may request a payout of their balance once it reaches a minimum of $10. Payouts are currently processed manually by bank transfer within a few business days of the request (automated payouts are planned for a future update; see paiements.html for the current status). Creators remain solely responsible for declaring this income to the relevant tax authorities (in France, typically via the URSSAF micro-entrepreneur declaration if applicable to their own situation).
8. Intellectual property
The engine, code, visual identity and technical components of the PADCRAFT site are the exclusive property of PADCRAFT. Designs published by creators remain their property; by publishing them on the marketplace, the creator grants PADCRAFT a non-exclusive license to use them for the purpose of selling on the platform, and grants buyers a personal-use license for the design purchased.
By generating or saving an overlay through the PADCRAFT configurator, the user grants PADCRAFT a worldwide, royalty-free right to review, reproduce, adapt, improve, present and commercially distribute the resulting controller-overlay configuration as a PADCRAFT design. PADCRAFT may create an independent shop copy without changing the user's original OBS link. This permission applies only to rights the user is legally able to grant: uploading an image, font, animation or other third-party asset does not transfer that third party's intellectual-property rights to PADCRAFT, and the user remains responsible for having the necessary permissions.
9. Catalog management and user-published content
Each creator warrants that they hold the rights to the designs they publish (or have the necessary authorizations) and undertakes not to publish any content infringing third-party rights (copyright, trademarks, image rights).
Every design created with PADCRAFT, whether it is published on the marketplace or used only by the person who created it, must not contain hateful, harassing or unlawful content. This includes, in particular, any text, name or image that incites hatred, violence or discrimination against a person or a group on the grounds of origin, ethnicity, nationality, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or disability; any symbol, slogan or reference associated with an extremist or terrorist movement; any content that harasses, threatens or defames an identifiable person; and any sexually explicit content. PADCRAFT may refuse to generate, may remove or may disable a design or overlay link that contains such content, in accordance with the provisions of this section, including after it has been paid for.
By publishing a design on the marketplace, the creator also authorizes PADCRAFT to manage its listing as needed for the operation of the platform: correcting or editing its listing information (name, description, category, keywords), adjusting its price, or removing it from sale, at any time and at PADCRAFT's discretion, including without a rights-infringement reason and without requiring the creator's prior approval for each change. PADCRAFT will make reasonable efforts to inform the creator of significant changes made to their listing where practical. This does not affect the creator's underlying ownership of the design, nor their share of past sales already made.
PADCRAFT may also remove a published design from the catalog entirely, and may disable a specific generated overlay link, including after that design or link has been paid for. This applies in the following cases: a credible claim that the content infringes a third party's rights; content that breaches these terms or the shop rules; fraud, a payment chargeback, or use of a link beyond the device limit stated on the product page; a binding legal or regulatory request; a serious security or technical problem; a storage, hosting or infrastructure constraint on PADCRAFT’s side, including the loss, migration or removal of the stored assets a design depends on; or the retirement of a controller model or engine feature that the design depends on.
To keep hosting and generation costs sustainable, PADCRAFT may also retire redundant overlay links: where several links belonging to the same account point to the same design, or to designs that differ only marginally from one another, PADCRAFT may keep the most recent one and invalidate the older duplicates. Affected account holders are informed by email, and the compensation described in the next paragraph applies, since the reason for the removal lies with PADCRAFT and not with the buyer.
Where a paid design or overlay link is removed or disabled for a reason that is not attributable to the buyer, PADCRAFT will offer, at the buyer's choice, either a replacement of equivalent value or a refund of the amount paid for that design or link. For a subscription sold before 19 October 2026, the refund covers the part of the paid period that has not been used. Where the removal follows fraud, abuse, or a breach of these terms by the buyer, no refund is due. PADCRAFT will give notice by email before disabling a paid overlay link whenever it is practical to do so, except where an immediate takedown is required by law or by a rights holder's claim.
10. Liability
The site and its services are provided "as is" and "as available". To the extent permitted by applicable law, PADCRAFT gives no warranty, whether express or implied, beyond those set out in these terms. In particular, PADCRAFT does not warrant that the services will be uninterrupted or free of errors, that they will be suited to a particular purpose, or that a design or overlay will display identically in every streaming software, browser or device.
PADCRAFT makes every effort to ensure the availability and proper functioning of the site, without guaranteeing absolute continuity. PADCRAFT cannot be held liable for malfunctions related to the user's technical environment (browser, connection, third-party streaming software).
Nothing in these terms limits or excludes the statutory rights of consumers under French and European Union law, in particular the legal guarantee of conformity that applies to digital content and digital services (Articles L224-25-12 and following of the French Consumer Code), nor any liability of PADCRAFT that cannot be limited or excluded by law.
11. Termination
Users may delete their account at any time. PADCRAFT may terminate or suspend a user's access in the event of a serious breach of these terms, with prior notice where possible.
12. Changes to the terms
PADCRAFT reserves the right to modify these terms at any time. Users will be informed of substantial changes; continued use of the site constitutes acceptance of the new terms.
13. Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by French law, regardless of the country the buyer or creator is located in. In the event of a dispute, an amicable solution will be sought before any legal action. In accordance with French consumer law, any consumer (a private individual, non-professional buyer) has the right to free recourse to a consumer mediator in the event of an unresolved dispute.
