Is it private and secure?
Your privacy is built in. Trim Video runs completely on your device, so whatever you enter stays in your browser and is never transmitted, logged or stored on any server.
Network activity: none. Nothing is sent and nothing is fetched. This tool makes no network request at all once the page has loaded — which is why it keeps working if your connection drops.
You do not have to take that on trust — our privacy proof page publishes the Content-Security-Policy that enforces it, lists every third party it permits, and shows how to verify the whole claim yourself.

Why Browser-Based Tools Are Safer for Your Files — Most online converters upload your files to a server. Client-side tools don't. Here's why that difference matters for privacy.
Frequently asked questions
How do I cut a clip?
Drop a video or audio file, enter a start and end time (mm:ss), then click Trim. The segment between them is kept.
Does trimming re-encode and lose quality?
No — it stream-copies the selected range, so it's fast and lossless. Cuts land on the nearest keyframe, so the start may be a fraction of a second off for some files.
Can I trim audio too?
Yes. Trim works on both video and audio files.
