Acceptance of Terms
By accessing and using PDFToolsHouse ("Service"), you accept and agree to be bound by the terms and provisions of this agreement. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use our Service.
These Terms of Service constitute a legally binding agreement between you and PDFToolsHouse. Your use of the Service signifies your acceptance of these terms.
Service Description
PDFToolsHouse provides browser-based PDF processing tools that operate entirely on your device:
Client-Side Processing
All PDF operations (merging, splitting, compressing, converting) run locally in your web browser using WebAssembly. Your files are never uploaded to our servers.
Service Availability
We strive to maintain service availability but do not guarantee uninterrupted access. The Service may be temporarily unavailable due to maintenance, updates, or technical issues.
Service Modifications
We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of the Service at any time without prior notice.
User Obligations
When using PDFToolsHouse, you agree to:
- Use the Service only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms.
- Only process PDF files that you own or have proper authorization to use.
- Not use the Service to process illegal, harmful, or offensive content.
- Not attempt to interfere with, compromise, or disable the Service's functionality.
- Not reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code from our Service.
- Comply with all applicable local, state, national, and international laws.
Intellectual Property Rights
Our Intellectual Property
PDFToolsHouse, its design, code, features, and branding are owned by us and protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, or redistribute our code or design without explicit permission.
Your Content
You retain all rights to the PDF files and documents you process using our Service. Because files never leave your browser, we never gain access to or claim ownership of your content.
Service Disclaimers
"As-Is" Service
PDFToolsHouse is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. We do not warrant that the Service will be error-free, secure, or uninterrupted.
No Accuracy Guarantee
While we strive for accuracy in PDF processing, we do not guarantee that results will be perfect or meet your specific requirements. Always verify output files for critical use cases.
User Responsibility
You are solely responsible for backing up your original files and verifying processed output. We are not liable for any data loss or file corruption.
Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, PDFToolsHouse and its operators shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits or revenues, whether incurred directly or indirectly, or any loss of data, use, goodwill, or other intangible losses resulting from: (a) your use or inability to use the Service; (b) any unauthorized access to or use of our servers; (c) any interruption or cessation of transmission to or from the Service; (d) any bugs, viruses, or other harmful code; or (e) any errors or omissions in content or any loss or damage incurred as a result of your use of any content made available via the Service.
In jurisdictions where liability cannot be excluded, our total liability is limited to the amount you paid us to use the Service (which is zero, as our Service is free).
Third-Party Services
We use privacy-focused analytics services to understand usage patterns. These third-party services are subject to their own terms and privacy policies.
Our Service may contain links to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the content, terms, or privacy practices of external sites.
Inclusion of third-party links does not imply endorsement. You access external sites at your own risk.
Service Termination
We reserve the right to refuse service, terminate accounts, or remove content at our sole discretion, without notice, for conduct that we believe violates these Terms or is harmful to other users, us, or third parties.
You may discontinue use of the Service at any time. Because we don't require accounts, there's nothing to cancel.
Provisions regarding intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, and governing law survive termination.
Governing Law & Jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with applicable laws, without regard to conflict of law provisions.
Any disputes arising from these Terms or your use of the Service shall be resolved through appropriate legal channels. You consent to the jurisdiction of competent courts.
If required by law in your jurisdiction, disputes may be subject to binding arbitration.
Changes to These Terms
We reserve the right to modify these Terms of Service at any time. We will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. Material changes will be prominently announced on our website. Your continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the modified terms.
