• You warrant that you have all necessary rights to upload, convert, and download any file you submit.
• You are solely responsible for:
  • storing the file securely;
  • ensuring that your use of the Service complies with all applicable laws.

4. Intellectual Property

• All Website software, design, text, graphics, and other content are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by intellectual‑property laws.
• Using the Service does not transfer any ownership rights to you.
• You grant us a limited, non‑exclusive, revocable licence to process your uploaded file solely to provide the Service.

5. Prohibited Use

You must not:

1. upload or process files containing unlawful, infringing, or malicious content;

3. interfere with or disrupt the Service or servers;
4. use automated means (bots, scripts) to abuse or overload the Service;
5. reverse‑engineer, decompile, or disassemble any part of the Website.

6. File Handling & Retention

• Files are transmitted to our servers via HTTPS, processed to convert PDF to Word format, and automatically deleted from temporary storage no later than one hour after the converted file is made available for download.
• We do not keep a copy of the files.
• Because deletion is permanent, we cannot restore lost or corrupted files.

7. Data Protection & Privacy

We process only the minimal personal data required to provide the Service (e.g., IP address, device metadata). Processing is based on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR (performance of a contract). For full details, see our separate Privacy Policy.

8. Disclaimer of Warranties

The Service is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non‑infringement, or that the PDF conversion will be successful or the Service uninterrupted.

• Our aggregate liability under these Terms shall not exceed €50 (fifty euro).

Nothing in these Terms limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or any liability that cannot legally be excluded.

10. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any claim, demand, or damage (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of your breach of these Terms or misuse of the Service.

11. Modifications, Suspension, and Termination

• We may modify the Service or these Terms at any time. Material changes will be announced on the Website at least 14 days before they take effect. Continued use after that date constitutes acceptance.
• We reserve the right to suspend or terminate the Service (or your access to it) at our discretion and without liability.

12. Governing Law & Jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of Finland. Any dispute that cannot be resolved amicably shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Helsinki, unless mandatory consumer‑protection rules provide otherwise.

13. EU Consumer Rights & ODR
