Terms of Use

Last updated November 15, 2026.

By using CineCode you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the site.

What the site is

CineCode is a free reference that explains filmmaking techniques in well-known films, with an optional paid upgrade, CineCode Plus, for the Daily game. The breakdowns are commentary and analysis written for education. They reflect my reading of each film and may contain mistakes; if you spot one, email kensugsav.video@gmail.com and I will look into it.

Your use

  • You may read, share and link to any page.
  • You may quote short passages with a link back to the page. Please don't copy whole breakdowns or republish the database.
  • Don't scrape the site at a rate that disrupts it, or use the request form to send spam.

Accounts

You need an account only for CineCode Plus. Keep your sign-in details to yourself, and use one account per person. I may close accounts that are used to abuse the site.

CineCode Plus

  • Plus is a one-time purchase of $15 (US dollars), plus sales tax or VAT where it applies. In some countries CineCode offers a lower regional price; the price shown to you at checkout is the price you pay. It is not a subscription and never renews.
  • Plus is tied to the account you bought it with. "Lifetime" means for as long as CineCode runs the Daily. Features may change over time.
  • Payment is handled by Stripe, which sells Plus as the merchant of record and issues your receipt. Stripe's own terms apply to the payment.
  • Refunds: if Plus isn't for you, email kensugsav.video@gmail.com within 14 days of buying for a full refund. A refund switches Plus off on your account. This does not limit any refund rights you have under local law.

Film titles, posters and other marks

Film titles, posters and stills belong to their respective studios and rights holders and appear here for identification and commentary. Poster images are provided by TMDB. This product uses the TMDB API but is not endorsed or certified by TMDB. If you hold rights to an image and want it removed, email me and I will take it down.
