Terms of Use

1. The Services

PDF Combiner allows you to select, arrange, and combine PDF files in your browser. Optional features may allow you to select PDF files from Google Drive or save a combined PDF to Google Drive. We may add, modify, suspend, or discontinue features at any time.

The Services are intended as a general-purpose file utility. They are not a document backup, archival, legal, financial, or records-management service.

2. Eligibility

You may use the Services only if you can legally enter into a binding agreement and your use is permitted by applicable law. If you use the Services on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms.

3. License to Use the Extension

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to install and use the extension for personal or internal business purposes.

You may not copy, sell, rent, sublicense, distribute, modify, reverse engineer, decompile, attempt to extract source code from, or create derivative works of the Services except where applicable law expressly permits such activity despite this restriction.

4. Your Files and Responsibilities

You retain all rights you hold in the files and other content you use with the Services. These Terms do not transfer ownership of your files to us.

You are responsible for:

• having all rights and permissions necessary to access, process, combine, download, and upload the files you provide;
• checking the accuracy, completeness, order, and suitability of every combined PDF before relying on, sharing, or submitting it;
• maintaining appropriate backup copies of important files; and
• protecting confidential, sensitive, regulated, or legally privileged information in accordance with your own obligations.

Our handling of information is described in the Privacy Policy.

5. Acceptable Use

You agree not to use the Services to:

• violate any law, regulation, court order, contract, or third-party right;
• process content that is unlawful, infringing, fraudulent, abusive, or malicious;
• introduce malware, harmful code, or content designed to disrupt or compromise devices, networks, accounts, or services;
• bypass security controls, access restrictions, usage limits, or technical protections;
• interfere with the operation or security of the Services or another person’s use of them;
• misrepresent your identity, authorization, or affiliation; or
• use automated means to access or burden the website or related infrastructure in a manner that is unreasonable or unauthorized.

6. Google Drive and Third-Party Services

Optional Google Drive functionality depends on services provided by Google. Your use of Google services is governed by Google’s own terms and policies. We do not control and are not responsible for Google Drive, the Chrome Web Store, your browser, external websites, or other third-party products and services.

Third-party services may change, restrict, interrupt, or discontinue their functionality at any time. As a result, related features of PDF Combiner may become unavailable or operate differently.

7. Intellectual Property

The Services, including their software, design, branding, text, graphics, and other components, are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by intellectual-property laws. Except for the limited license granted above, no rights in the Services are granted to you.

If you send us feedback or suggestions, you grant us a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free right to use them without restriction or compensation to you.

8. Updates and Availability

We may release updates that fix errors, improve performance, change functionality, or address security concerns. Your browser or the Chrome Web Store may install updates automatically. Continued use of the Services after an update is subject to these Terms.

We do not guarantee that the Services will always be available, uninterrupted, secure, or compatible with every device, browser version, PDF file, website, or third-party service.

9. Disclaimer of Warranties

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Services are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory. We disclaim all implied warranties, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, and any warranties arising from course of dealing or usage of trade.

We do not warrant that the Services will meet your requirements, that combined files will be error-free or suitable for a particular purpose, or that defects will be corrected. You use the Services and rely on their output at your own risk.

10. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we and our affiliates, licensors, and service providers will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, files, profits, revenue, business, goodwill, or opportunities, arising out of or related to the Services or these Terms, even if advised that such damages are possible.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability for all claims arising out of or related to the Services or these Terms will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid us for the Services during the twelve months before the event giving rise to the claim or US $25.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranty exclusions or liability limitations. In those jurisdictions, the exclusions and limitations above apply only to the extent permitted by law.

11. Indemnity

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless us and our affiliates, licensors, and service providers from claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising from your files, your misuse of the Services, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of another person’s rights.

12. Suspension and Termination

You may stop using the Services at any time and may uninstall the extension through your browser. We may suspend or terminate your access to any part of the Services if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms, created legal or security risk, or misused the Services.

Provisions that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including provisions concerning ownership, disclaimers, liability limitations, indemnity, and general legal terms.

13. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will revise the “Last updated” date when changes are published. If a change is material, we will provide notice where required by law. Your continued use of the Services after updated Terms take effect means you accept the updated Terms.

14. General Terms

These Terms and the Privacy Policy constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Services and supersede prior agreements on that subject. If any provision is found unenforceable, it will be modified to the minimum extent necessary or severed, and the remaining provisions will continue in effect.

Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our written consent. We may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, sale of assets, reorganization, or by operation of law. Nothing in these Terms creates an employment, partnership, joint venture, or agency relationship.
