Terms of Service

Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using Image Tools ("the Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and all applicable laws and regulations. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, you must not use our Service.

These terms apply to all visitors, users, and others who access or use the Service. We reserve the right to modify these terms at any time, and such modifications shall be effective immediately upon posting on this page. Your continued use of the Service after any changes indicates your acceptance of the modified terms.

Description of Service

Image Tools provides free, browser-based image processing utilities including but not limited to image compression, format conversion, resizing, cropping, collage creation, and upscaling. All image processing occurs locally within your web browser using client-side technologies. We do not store, process, or transmit your images on our servers.

The Service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We do not guarantee that the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free. We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service at any time without prior notice.

Use of the Service

You agree to use the Service only for lawful purposes and in a manner that does not infringe the rights of, restrict, or inhibit anyone else's use and enjoyment of the Service. Prohibited activities include but are not limited to:

• Using the Service for any illegal or fraudulent purpose
• Uploading, processing, or distributing content that is unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, or otherwise objectionable
• Attempting to interfere with, compromise the system integrity or security, or decipher any transmissions to or from the servers running the Service
• Using any robot, spider, crawler, scraper, or other automated means to access the Service
• Impersonating any person or entity, or falsely stating or otherwise misrepresenting your affiliation with a person or entity
• Engaging in any activity that places an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on our infrastructure

Intellectual Property

All content on this website, including but not limited to text, graphics, logos, icons, images, audio clips, digital downloads, data compilations, and software, is the property of Image Tools or its content suppliers and is protected by international copyright and intellectual property laws.

You retain all ownership rights to the images you process using our Service. We claim no ownership, license, or rights to your original content or processed outputs. You are free to use processed images for personal, commercial, or any other lawful purpose without attribution or restriction.

You may not reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell, or exploit any portion of the Service or access to the Service without express written permission from us.

Disclaimer of Warranties

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without any warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, or course of performance.

Image Tools does not warrant that:

• The Service will function uninterrupted, secure, or available at any particular time or location
• Any errors or defects will be corrected
• The Service is free of viruses or other harmful components
• The results of using the Service will meet your requirements or expectations

Because all image processing occurs in your browser, the quality and accuracy of results depend on your device's capabilities, browser implementation, and the specific characteristics of your input files.

Limitation of Liability

In no event shall Image Tools, its owners, operators, affiliates, or licensors be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including without limitation, loss of profits, data, use, goodwill, or other intangible losses, resulting from:

• Your access to or use of, or inability to access or use, the Service
• Any conduct or content of any third party on the Service
• Any content obtained from the Service
• Unauthorized access, use, or alteration of your transmissions or content

This limitation of liability applies whether the alleged liability is based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or any other basis, even if Image Tools has been advised of the possibility of such damage.

Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Image Tools and its affiliates from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs or debt, and expenses arising from your use of and access to the Service, your violation of any term of these Terms of Service, or your violation of any third-party right, including without limitation any copyright, property, or privacy right.

Third-Party Links and Services

Our Service may contain links to third-party websites or services that are not owned or controlled by Image Tools. We have no control over, and assume no responsibility for, the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party websites or services.

We display advertisements through Google AdSense. Your interactions with these advertisements are governed by Google's own terms and policies.

Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws applicable in the jurisdiction where Image Tools operates, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of those rights. If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court, the remaining provisions of these Terms will remain in effect.

Changes to Terms

We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to modify or replace these Terms at any time. If a revision is material, we will try to provide at least 30 days' notice prior to any new terms taking effect. What constitutes a material change will be determined at our sole discretion.

By continuing to access or use our Service after those revisions become effective, you agree to be bound by the revised terms. If you do not agree to the new terms, please stop using the Service.
