These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of saw-tools.me (the "Service"). By accessing or using the Service you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
1. Description of the Service
SAW TOOLS provides free, in-browser utility tools (password generation, unit conversion, QR code generation, random number generation, Base64 encoding/decoding, color conversion, Markdown to HTML conversion, scientific calculator, and others). All processing happens locally in your browser — we do not store the input or output of any tool.
2. Free service
The Service is provided free of charge. Operating costs are covered by advertising. We reserve the right to display advertising on any page.
3. User obligations
By using the Service you agree to:
- Use it only for lawful purposes
- Not attempt to interfere with or disrupt the Service or its security mechanisms
- Not abuse the infrastructure (e.g. automated scraping at unreasonable rates)
- Not use the Service in any way that could harm minors
- Comply with all applicable laws in your jurisdiction
4. Intellectual property
The Service, including its design, code, content, and trademarks, is the property of SAW TOOLS or its licensors and is protected by international copyright laws. The third-party library qrcode-generator (Kazuhiko Arase, MIT License) is used on the QR code page. The Outfit font is provided by Google Fonts under the SIL Open Font License.
You may use the output produced by the tools (e.g. a generated password, a generated QR code) freely, including for commercial purposes, with no attribution required.
5. Disclaimer of warranties
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or completely secure. Although we use cryptographically secure primitives where applicable (e.g. crypto.getRandomValues), the Service is not certified for use in safety-critical applications.
6. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SAW TOOLS, ITS AFFILIATES, AND CONTRIBUTORS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, OR USE, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THE USE OF THE SERVICE.
This limitation does not affect rights granted to consumers by mandatory law (e.g. the EU consumer rights directive). Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or limitations of liability for incidental or consequential damages; in such cases, the limitations apply to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
7. Third-party services
The Service uses third-party components (Google Fonts, Google AdSense when active, jsDelivr CDN). Their use is subject to their respective terms. We are not responsible for any third-party service.
8. Privacy
Your privacy is governed by our Privacy Policy, which is part of these Terms.
9. Termination
We may suspend or terminate the Service, or your access to it, at any time without notice if we believe you have violated these Terms or applicable law.
10. Modifications to the Service or Terms
We reserve the right to modify or discontinue the Service at any time. We may also revise these Terms; the "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent version. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance.
11. Governing law and jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by the laws of France, without regard to its conflict-of-law provisions. Disputes are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent French courts, except where mandatory consumer protection laws of your country of residence provide otherwise.
12. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect.
